Schefflera Decline After Repotting: Water by Weight, Not Finger

Repotting + Wrong Watering = Decline

Large pot + "finger 2" dry" method keeps soil too wet at bottom.

Correct Method: Water by Weight

1. Saucer under pot.
2. Water, soak 5–10 min, pour off excess.
3. Pot heavy → wait until considerably lighter.
4. Indoors: 3–14 days between waterings.

Other Fixes

• Keep radiator away from foliage.
• Morning sun (east) better than afternoon.
• Remove brown/yellow leaves promptly.
