    Watering
    Watering time from 16 to 21 days. It will depend on the weather conditions, this type of substrate (Sphagnum Moss) stores a lot of humidity so you must be very careful with the days of watering since the roots can rot.

    1. Immerse the pot in a container of water
    2. Pour water from the top using any container, you must be careful that the water only comes into contact with the substrate where the roots of the plant are.
