It's sort of 'escaping' it's pot. It started leaning to the side, pulling roots out of the soil and also growing new roots. I'm not sure if the leaning is because of too much light or not enough. My son keeps turning it so I'm not sure which way it started leaning. Also I'm finding conflicting suggestions on watering. Some say to keep the soil moist and some say put in a small amount of water. I water from the top, letting the soil fall in the "bowl", and let it sit for a few minutes and then dump. (I just watered before taking this pic.) |
