I usually alternate my watering to keep things simple. Just check the moisture levels and only water when necessary!
A well-draining pot is key! The general rule of thumb is to water thoroughly when the top one or two inches of soil are dry. Water from the top and make sure not to let the pot sit in any collected water. My string of hearts are thriving this way in a spot that gets plenty of indirect light!
I've found that good light is essential. Water your string of pearls when the soil feels dry, or if you see the pearls starting to shrivel. When you do water, really soak them! It's all about making sure they get enough moisture without being overwatered.
Thanks for the advice! I just got a new pot for mine. I’m keeping it in the original pot for now since it seems happy, but I'll definitely consider repotting later.
