Rex Bugona. First image is today, I noticed it looked bad yesterday so I've been hitting it with the humidifier (distilled water). The edges are kin of crispy it's folding into a cup. The soil isn't wet but not totally dry. I repotted it with the soil it came with plus some succulent soil (fast draining).
Second image is last week when it looked better among my other plants.
Is it too much light? I have crappy Amazon grow lights and they're by a window. Dude at the nursery said they don't like direct light.

I would water,all my begonia are water hogs
I guess when was the last time they were watered? I’m watering every 4-5 days
That dirt looks dusty it’s so dry
Op mine look the same…I’m gonna take the risk and water like these lovely folks suggest….
OK BROS I’M WATERING
They need water, not a humidifier. All my guys are growing in around 50% humidity and doing great
Putting the meter directly on the soil is going to give you a very inaccurate reading.
Begonia tend to have fine, shallow roots. The top of the soil looks quite dry. If you poke your finger into the soil and the top layer is dry… w a t e r…
That soil looks dryer than grandma’s KeWcHiE
