    Hmmm what could the POSSIBLE solution be?

    Personally, no matter how tight a leaf bud looks, I never touch it! and I’ve rarely had any problems (in any case, I’m convinced I’d have lost more leaves by touching it than by letting it go).

    Yeah, dont fuck with your plant. Leave it be

    Why are you trying to help the leaves unfurl πŸ™ poor plant

  5. Desperate-Paper6034

    What made you think it needed help?

    They’ll unfurl on their own 😊 I get really impatient too but it’s so satisfying seeing it do it on its own!

    ive done this. its ok. i only help mine unfurl because if i don’t it will snap on its own trying to unfurl. it helps to just use a wet q-tip (:

    Stop helping. Like, seriously, what are you doing? It doesn’t need help, it needs water and light. Just let it grow.

    I hate that too! πŸ˜’ mist it’s its not dry and that should help it unfurl better

    Let the plant be a plant! Don’t be so finicky with your care

    Maybe don’t do that again and let them unfurl naturally? Or does that make too much sense?

    Allowing the leaf to unfurl naturally is your best bet. They have been doing it for millions of years, they got it πŸ˜‰
