Water:  We recommend using a long wooden stick such as chopstick to stick and push all the way down into soil to check the wetness of the soil. Kentia palm usually tolerates dryness but do not keep it dry for too long. Best condition for the palm is when the soil is overall humid, not damp. Weekly watering of 30oz is recommended for this size. Check the soil condition frequently to avoid over watering.

 Light: Medium to bright filtered light is highly recommended but tolerates low light. Direct sunlight may burn the leaves, especially during summer. Morning sunlight is better than afternoon sunlight.

 Air & Temperature: Air circulation helps water evaporation, prevents condensation on the leaf surfaces, and reduces the growth of fungal infections and rot. Dramatic temperature change will damage the plant. Room temperature is recommended (68-80F)

 Fertilize: Mix few drops of liquid plant food with water when watering the plant. Use on every watering session for best result. Another way of using the liquid plant food is to twist off the tip (not entire cap) and stick the entire bottle into the soil near the root. Do not squeeze the bottle as the soil will naturally absorb the liquid. When the bottle is empty, replace with new bottle.
