Hello! This is my first post in r/airplants and I think I am really needing some help since google is failing me. I have 3 air plants; one from almost 3 years ago and the other 2 I just got for Christmas. They all seem a bit curled in and dry…
The bigger red one i have had since 2022, and it's leaves were larger, bright red and full. I did unfortunately neglect it a bit and wasn't as consistent with watering it for a bit last year… It has since curled it's leaves in and gotten a bit thinner.
The other two I just got for Christmas, so they may have gone a couple of weeks without being watered. They also seem a bit on the dry side.
I am currently soaking all 3 once a week for about 10 minutes and then try to dry them upside down so the water doesn't soak too deep. They also do have some indirect sunlight on a bookshelf next to a South facing window. It is fair to say I am also in a dryer climate with some colder temperatures this time of year.
I can't tell if they need longer soaks or if I am going to far with them. Does anyone have advice so I can get them nice and full and healthy again?

Under. Soak it in a bucket for a couple hours then let it dry upside down. Mist it daily and repeat the soak weekly until it fills out.
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱 this scares me tremendously.
