Check Soil Moisture Before Watering

5
  1. Solution: Feel the soil 1-2 inches below the surface before watering.
  2. Explanation: Don't water on a fixed schedule. Instead, check if the soil is actually dry. Insert your finger into the soil; if it feels dry at that depth, it's time to water. If it feels moist, wait and check again later or the next day.
  3. Notes: Simple, reliable method to avoid both over- and under-watering. Adjust checking depth for container size.
