What are your tips and tricks for taking care of it? How often do I water it? Sunlight? @mamasan

My begonias took off after I started giving it a regular dose of miracle grow every week to weeks! It d idnt look pretty before... begoinas respond well to being fertilized! They'll grow full and put off bloom after bloom! 🌸🌸🌸🌸

#begonia they like indirect sunlight,shaded place where they get morning sun inside and outside. They grow pretty fast if they like where they are. Make sure u turn it so it all gets good light. If not,it will look leggy. They like moist soil,not wet. If it stands in watery soil it will root quickly. Use the knuckle checker,place pointer finger in soil down to 2nd knuckle if dry water throughly,drain for awhile B4 putting something ⬇️

Under it. Don't water for awhile. During the winter months u don't want to water it as much,giving it a rest for blooming next yr. Always make sure there's food airflow between the soil and leaves,that will also cause it to root at base. III hope this helps u. @AmyBayless 😉😍
