How often should I water my Philodendron Goeldii?

We recommend that you press your index finger into the soil down to the first joint to feel for soil moisture.

Apply fertilizer during its growing season; once in the spring and again in the summer.
What is the best soil for Philodendron Goeldii Plants?
