What is over-watering? Simply put, it's watering when your soil/roots are not yet ready for their next watering. When you water without allowing the soil to properly dry, it can lead to root rot.
Checking the moisture level on your soil is an easy way to know if your plant is ready for more water. This can be performed by the "finger test" or chopsticks for larger plants or if you have one, a moisture meter. 🌿✨

I used to be so guilty of over-watering! The “finger test” is a great suggestion to know when it’s time for the next watering 🙌🏼

Do you usually water in the sink? I do! When I use a can it’s always too much and they sit in water and then get gnats! So sink works best for me, I like the light spray to distribute water, and I let them drain for a long time. My husband hates he can’t wash his hands then in the kitchen haha.

As i understand overwatering is not the amount of water you use it is the frequency of watering
