Should I repot or let them be?
I want mine to grow big and lush so should I leave the pups as is and let them grow or should I chop them and repot? Also should I repot the whole thing?

I just picked it up yesterday. Right now I have it right beside an East facing window. It looks like it's in a chunky soil mix and I put a bamboo stick through the soil and it's still wet inside so for now I won't be doing anything for at least a week.
My questions: should I put it under a grow light or one of those cheap LED lights? Should I add silica to the fertilizer mix when I water it? Lastly, should I report it to a self watering pot or just leave it alone for now?
Any other tips much appreciated!
Hello,
I just picked this Alocasia Frydek and wanted to get all your tips and advice on how to keep it alive and thriving. The lady I got it from said it is kept in a chunky soil mix. Should I keep it in this for now or repot it in my own mix with Pon? Also bottom water or in a self watering pot?
Also, I live in North Western Canada so it will get really cold in winter. Should I keep this inside an indoor greenhouse or let it acclimate to the room humidity which is around 40-50%.
I have East and West facing windows and I think I'm going to put it next to my East facing window, what are you thoughts? Direct or Indirect sunlight?
Against all the advice here, I bought a prayer plant. It was just calling my name. I've had it for a week and it's in the living room where it gets a lot of light but not direct sunlight. I haven't watered it yet as the soil is still wet but the plant looks so sad. I don't want it to die, what should I do for it to thrive?
1.5 years of actively trying with one functional tube. Everything checks out for both of us. All the tests and treatments were done still nothing. 3 failed IUIs. We are going to Europe for IVF in September but I wish we could conceive on our own. I ovulate at the exact same time every month and we give it our best shot every month using LH strips to time my ovulation. I don't understand why I can't get pregnant again.
We have been trying to conceive our 2nd for over 2 years now after an ectopic rupture where I lost my right tube. I got my left tube checked and it is open and healthy. However, ever since I recovered I always get a stabbing left sided pain during my TWW even on the months that I don't ovulate from the left side and it drives me nuts because in the beginning I would get hopeful it might be impantation pain but at this point I know its not and it happens every month. I am currently 7dpo and its happening again. Its not constant like once or twice a day it will happen and last for about 30 seconds. Does anyone know what this is and if its normal? never had this one sided pain before my ectopic rupture.
So my 3 year old daughter is only 27lbs. Other than her height and weight everything else about her is developmentally normal. Her pediatrician is not worried at all as she was born premature at 35 weeks and she has always been on her growth curve and from day 1 she was around the 5th percentile.
She has always hit all her milestones on time. She is a very very active 3 year old and fully potty trained at 2.5 yrs, sleeps 12 hrs overnight with no wake ups and always happy and in a great mood. While she does throw tantrums here and there, they are not crazy outbursts and she calms down fairly quick. Her tantrums are also not a daily occurance for us. I am just giving some context on her behaviour and how she is in case it is relevant.
Why I am getting a little worried is all her freinds at daycare have surpassed her in height and weight and she is the only small one in her class. Kids who are younger than her have also surpassed her. I am confused why she isn't gaining weight because she eats quite a bit and her diet consists of pretty much everything. My husband and I both are foodies who love to cook different cuisines so she has grown up so far eating pretty much everything and she eats it all and she isn't a picky eater. She has protiens, veggies, carbs, dairy on a daily in our household and at daycare I pack her lunch which mostly she finishes and her teachers have always said how well she eats and I guess they say it out of shock since she is so tiny.
She poops about 1-2 times a day and she's never been constipated. So I am wondering should I be worried about her weight? She fits in a size 2 still and size 3T is pretty loose on her. I have not been worried until now that family have started commenting on it. I have never let their comments get to my head but now seeing other kids her age getting bigger it is making me a bit worried. Her cousin who is 2 weeks older than her already wears Size 4T and some 5T and they keep commenting how small she is and its getting under my skin. Could there be any other underlying issue I should investigate? I asked her pediatrician to do some blood work on her but she refused because of everything I mentioned above she said there is absolutely no reason or signs to get blood work done on her as if she has any deficiancy it would have shown un in some way in her behaviour. But isn't her low weight a sign? I don't know I am just spiraling a bit today.
EDIT: I just wanted to thank everyone who commented and shared about your own little ones. My mind is at ease now and feeling very reassured. Thank you again for taking the time to comment. I do want to mention that my MIL is very petite and 4'9 and my my husband is 5'7 so it is probably those genes which is completely fine. Feeling much better about having a tiny 3 year old :)
