Philodendron

Is my plant very thirsty or am I doing something wrong?


Hi all! I’ve been taking care of this pink princess for some months now. I didn’t get it in good shape but seems to be recovering and doing good, as it just put out a new perfect leaf 🙂 it is potted in philo specific soil and exposed to indirect light.

The thing is, it has been so thirsty I’m finding it strange. I’m in the UK and we are going through some hot days, but nothing major, and the plant seems to want to be watered almost every 2/3 days! Soil goes very very dry to the touch, and my moist meter also tells me it’s dry, but I’m scared to over water it! Is it normal to water them so frequently? Should I hold back? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks in advance and happy planting yall 💚🌱
