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).

They’ll unfurl on their own π I get really impatient too but it’s so satisfying seeing it do it on its own!
Hey_Nessa
ive done this. its ok. i only help mine unfurl because if i donβt 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.

Maybe donβt 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 π
