Blozem HintsđŸŒ±
đŸŒ±Less is more! The thick stems on this plant store excess water. Overwatering will cause them to go brown and mushy, paired with yellowing of lower leaves.
đŸŒ±Rough Round the Edges! Brown leaf margins is often a symptom of too much fertiliser. If you don’t fertilise it could be the fluoride in the water. Fix it with filtered water.
