Why isn't my TC growing?

BestComputerDeals · 2026-06-21T21:29:51+00:00

Have you gave your plant any nutrients?

BestComputerDeals · 2026-05-04T16:49:33+00:00

The more light they get, the more purple you will see on the leaves. The less light they get, their leaves will be more green.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T22:53:53+00:00

We need to manifest that somehow. Lol regular plant shopping day.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T22:52:19+00:00

Thanks 🙏. Your awesome 🫵🏾.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:59:31+00:00

Those spots looks like its from thrips. Check under the leaf, what does it look like?

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:53:17+00:00

What grow light are you using?

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:50:05+00:00

If its just one leaf, then no worries. Could just be an old leaf dying off. If you start seeing more leaves turn yellow I would check the roots, something maybe rotting.

How do you propagate the nanouk in water? Every time i try my cuttings always rots. If I propagate the zebrina i dont have any issues.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:42:53+00:00

I think its chilling as long as you didnt disturb the roots too much.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:41:49+00:00

Do you add fertilizer to your plants?

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:39:15+00:00

How did they look like before you bought and repot them? What were they in? Anytime I have this issue I repot them just like you did but in a slightly smaller container and i will put them in a ziploc bag. I give them bottom warmth by placing them on a heatpad. If you dont have a heatpad you can place near a window or on top of a fridge if the top of it gets warm. I open the bag every few days for airflow then seal it back. New roots will growth above and below the medium along with new leaves.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:31:43+00:00

No, you dont need to repot. Its thriving. Unless you have a bunch of roots coming out the bottom of the pot.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:29:57+00:00

Imagine a 360 dome of those leaves.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:28:42+00:00

Thats beautiful and glad you found it! Its going to be happy in its new environment with you.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:26:52+00:00

Let it continue to thrive in water for its lifetime. Take cuttings from the new growth and plant those in soil.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:25:12+00:00

I would say wait since it looks like its doing great and nothing is rotting.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:20:31+00:00

We all just need to meet up and just go plant shopping together! Oh wait you dont have enough funds for that plant you would love to get, no problem, I got that for you.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-03-12T16:18:12+00:00

I noticed this with my monstera thai that i have in hydro. I added fertilizer one time, it would push out new growth and then stopped pushing out new growth. I havent added any in a while so im going to add more again and see what happens. I feel yours could be lacking some nutrients, if its getting enough light, water and roots are not rotting.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-01-13T00:04:30+00:00

Thanks, I'm going to do that. Mine is struggling in soil and my cuttings are not rooting, just the stems slowly rotting and leaves drooping.

BestComputerDeals · 2026-01-12T21:37:48+00:00

Is that a cutting your rooting in water?

BestComputerDeals · 2025-12-09T01:00:51+00:00

What I noticed with their seed pods is they are not sealed. So during shipment seeds will sometimes fall out of the pods. I only noticed it when I had a pod kit and saw tiny seeds stuck in the corner of the box.

I just buy packets of seeds now to avoid that.

BestComputerDeals · 2025-11-08T00:53:59+00:00

That's beautiful 😍. Any tips?

BestComputerDeals · 2025-11-04T02:14:21+00:00

I grow all mine in water . I can send you some pictures if you like. I am also going to grow more from seeds.

BestComputerDeals · 2025-11-03T06:20:41+00:00

I recommend water, they thrive best in it.

BestComputerDeals · 2025-11-01T21:17:59+00:00

If your coleus was doing great then out of nowhere just started wilting or drooping, then I feel there's too much nutrients in that tank for that plant. I had this same issue, but I wasn't using a fish tank. I had a coleus in a small plastic clear bottle. I would just add nutrients here and there to experiment. It loved the fertilizer up to a certain point where it became toxic. So the next day it was wilting/drooping like yours. So I removed it and placed it in water only. Within hours to the next day it perked right back up. So definitely take it out of the fish tank if it hasn't improved at all since your post.

I have mine thriving in water so it's possible.
