2 - Low/Med: Doesn't need as much water, but doesn't like to stay dry for too long. Plant will become droopy when really thirsty.
3 - Medium: Water plant when dry. Plant does not like soil to always be moist, but doesn't like to stay dry once becomes dry. Water as soon as soil is dry.
4 - Med/High: Prefers more water than most, but soil can dry out periodically. Use a spray bottle to mist and increase humidity levels without soaking the soil and roots.
