Have had the plant since tissue culture pup about a month ago, and I’m super happy that she’s thriving :)
Question about the second pic though, whenever a new leaf starts to come up from the outside, does that 100% mean that the new leaf is originating from a new corm? Or is it possible for a new leaf to shoot out from the original corm but from the outside rather than the center?
Posting half just to share, and half cause I could use some advice. I just came into possession of this gigantonormous Pubicalyx Splash. Previous owner had for 15 years before they ran out of space. I’m super thrilled, as this is now by far the biggest / most mature plant that I own. I’m confident in my ability to care for any plant at this point, and this is NOT her permanent home (I know, not nearly enough light and those shitty pole lights from Amazon suck, it’s just there til I get a new larger stand to put in front of my better window) but the trellising on this gal is an absolute mess now. She’s also in a super organic potting soil.
I probably should mess with her for a long while, particularly in the soil department, as clearly it’s doing just fine. But would love to know if anyone has any experience cleaning up or even upgrading the support on a super established plant like this and had any advice they could share :)
Grew this pup from corm and it’s been in a dome the whole time so far. Any idea what these are?
I got this Saintpaulia ‘Frosty Bubbles’ from my local nursery a couple of weeks ago, and the variegated parts have slowly been turning from white to pink. My grow light is pretty damn bright, so I just wanna make sure it’s not harming the plant. Thanks!
Just received this guy from marketplace today, but have a few questions. My room hovers between 50-60% humidity. Is that going to be okay? It’s also in sphagnum right now, and I plan to transfer to semi hydro (probably a 50/50 lechuza/leca blend) into the pot you see behind. I know you can’t see the roots, but how soon should I be able to transfer this over? Any additional advice that you have would be greatly appreciated, I’m new to jewel alocasia. If it makes a difference, it was initially tissue cultured.
Have wanted one for a while but she looks slightly sickly in some areas.
First ever Hoya, and I’ve only had her for a little over a month! I haven’t noticed any outwards growth like this yet though, so I’m unsure of whether or not this is what a new peduncle looks like.
Super happy, she seems to be loving my bright bedroom window. As soon as it’s done separating she should be ready to re pot and attach to a moss pole :)
Got her about 2.5 weeks ago, and seems to be doing great so far. After her roots grow out a bit more over the next couple of weeks I plan on planting her in the 7 inch glazed pot (that has a couple of drainage holes) with a sphagnum moss pole that I have all the components for already. She’s in an east-southeast facing window that gets a ton of morning light.
However, I would like to know if you guys think this is a small or large form, and if large, should I be having it climb? Any advice appreciated.
I just scored this beauty from my local nursery today for a great price, and am super excited. However, I’d love some advice on a few things.
I know the pot is too big as it stands, but a nursery worker told me that if I let it become more root bound to the nursery pot, it should be fine to re plant in a few weeks - month. Is that true, or should I forget about this pot for now and find a smaller one?
There are a few browned corners on a one of the leaves. Should I trim the brown parts with disinfected scissors, or leave as is? Same with the brownish cut part in image 3.
In images 4 and 5, you see this funky outgrowth of what appears to be roots . What do you think I should do about that?
I really appreciate the help!!
