I have had this for just a little tiny guy. this winter it just grew and grew. I have a soil mix that's considered "tropical" as I used the soil from a yucca tree. about a month ago it started leaning and now is completely on his side. I'm sure he will need a bigger pot but is everything alright? Ask me any questions. I'm sure one of the first questions I'll get asked is watering. He gets a cup 1/2 of water every two weeks or until the soil is completely dry.

1 1/2 cups of water every two weeks** couldn’t figure out how to edit the post.
It needs more hours of sunlight, and the pot looks small.
It may have gotten top-heavy with all the new growth. Looks like it’s been watered from the top, which washed out the soil from around the trunk. Straighten it with some temporary chopsticks, while packing some damp sand or soil to fill the voids. Then, use a bigger saucer and water from below.
omg that growth spurt is amazing! definitely time for a bigger pot – when they start leaning like that they’re usually telling you they need more space for their roots.
