When I bought my palm, it was sliver, it still is in some spots. She happens to to be a more white and and thick in some areas. I wasn't sure if that's from sun exposure, or it is from storing water. I just want to make sure my guys is okay. I'm planning on repotting soon in the same pot just a little higher up with more soil. I water about once a week, or when leaves look like they aren't as happy. I'm in Indianapolis so zone 5-6. It usually gets outside light.

My guy/gal…. whatever..
Looks happy.
Looks fine, you will be able to tell the growth difference from the seasons. If you keep it active during the winter, typically those spines tends to be a bit smaller and bark a bit darker. If you let it go completely dormant, they don’t have these usually. I let mine grow in the winter, it’s about 5 ft tall now, as it ages the differences get much less noticeable then when it’s young.
