Dracula leaves
 
Hi, I have this dracula from 1 month in sphagnum moss as I bought it.
Now I have these leaves but it's looking good for me.
What do you think about?
Is it for much sun or too much water?

I have been growing draculas for about two months so I'm VERY inexperienced, but could it be just natural old leaves dying? How many new leaves have grown if any?

Only one!
I water it every 2-3 days.
Any other advice?

Regards

My environment is very hot and humid. My drac is sprayed at least once a day if not more.

Well my Draculas have not grown any new growths but their current ones have gotten bigger. Reasons I can think of that they are dying is high salt content water. It's possible your water has too much dissolved salts in it and I'm not sure if you use distilled or RO water. I water my Draculas every day and they really like it almost wet it seems, but considering yours put out a new growth, I don't suspect this as a problem either. Anyone more experienced with Draculas? SOS!

Yes, I'm using RO water.

My Italian friends tell me it has been very hot in Italy this summer. Most Dracula do not like hot weather.
