EP 105 - Watering succulents based on SCIENCE, and busting some MYTHS!
Watering. It’s a topic that sounds simple in theory but is a cause of confusion and even stress for some. It should be a relaxing activity, think of it a bit like bonding with your plants. But it’s hard to think that way when plants die from underwatering, and more often than not, overwatering.

Because I believe than understanding how the underlying mechanisms work will help you make a lot of sense about why certain things happen, and how to manipulate things to your advantage.
