Water: Only water the plants when the soil is completely dry. If the soil has any moisture, do not water them at all. When you water your plants be sure they are being watered in the evening or late afternoon. Plants best absorb water and nutrients from the soil during their rest period (which is in the evening). Over-watering is the easiest way to kill plants. It is also important to address under-watering. An under-watered plant will show signs of stress with drooping or withered leaves. A good watering will perk the leaves right up. Sunlight: When you first receive them keep them in soft sun or indirect light only and slowly introduce them to direct sunlight. Not being careful with proper sun introduction can cause the plants to sunburn. Burn will either kill the leaves or cause them to look unsightly. ------------- Temperature: A good rule is to not allow your plants to be in temperatures below 40 degrees without protection. Plants truly thrive between 50 degrees and 85 degrees. It is ok if the temperature gets above this mark, you will just need to take extra precaution to ensure your plants do not burn. You will want to keep your plants out of direct afternoon sun if the temperatures are rising above 85 degrees. If the temperature is dropping below 30 you will want to keep them indoors/greenhouse to ensure they do not freeze.
