I finally figured out why my snake plant wasn't growing—I was watering it way too much! I read that Sansevieria trifasciata is super drought-tolerant and actually prefers to dry out between waterings. Now I'm only watering every three weeks or so, and the new leaves look so much healthier. Has anyone else struggled with overwatering theirs? I'm curious if other low-maintenance plants have the same issue.
