I work in a windowless office. My wife got me a plant to spruce up the place, it's supposed to be watered once a fortnight and need very little light.

It sat in the dark in the weekend and when I got it it had these water drops on many of its leaves. What's up?

It might be really humid in there or it had a lot of water. It's letting out excess water

It went over your budget spreadsheet this weekend and it has some bad news for you

Our pothos do that too. Pretty normal stuff according to my wife.
