Another scenario is change of hands - from one grower to the next. The grower with their new plant - especially a beginner - might not know the details or watering schedule or amount. Or not know how to make the necessary adjustments or tweaks in the new growing conditions. Such as popping in too much water, and drenching the media (without knowing what's happening under the bonnet - aka hood).
