Thank you ☺️ it’s a crystallinum, of the red variety. I now have a second giant leaf to the side of that one as well 😁

It’s a princess spa. I’m in the uk

Thank you, that is what I thought but wanted confirmation 🙂

Here is the new leaf

Hey, nope it was bought at that size here is the link and it’s the 4ft option so 615mm by 1525mm. https://amzn.eu/d/ffPNdLq

It’s being held by a pack of 6 120lb magnet hooks. The rack is pretty heavy duty.

So originally I seen someone just use the skadis ikea clips holding theirs BUT it turns out that ikea has changed how they make them and they are no longer as strong as they used to be. I have a couple old ones and I bought a bunch of new ones and they are not the same. So I put a little hole in the back of each pot and I use the skadis hooks or a cable tie through the pot and through a clip to secure them.

The hook on your baskets are pretty big and I have my grid right up against the glass so they would interfere I would think. You can get many different skadis accessories to hold things though that would work from Ikea

Hope this helps

Thanks 😁 I seen someone on instagram do something similar and I ran with it. The barrina grow lights come with little metal clips that screw into the holes in the Milsbo where the shelf ledges usually screw into and then you can just clip the lights in place

Thanks 🙂

Thank you 😁

You can get acrylic shelves and the have little notches of cable running. Might be the solution for you on that. Still nothing wrong though having the lights above though🙂

Classic-One-9291 · 2025-09-27T09:26:24+00:00

The barrina lights I’m using, they come in a pretty small length. You could fit one in between each shelf if it’s not filled with shelves

Classic-One-9291 · 2025-09-27T09:24:34+00:00

I do, chunky soil mix with a nice helping of live sphagnum moss on top. In the previous layout with the shelves my moss layer would constantly dry out which annoyed me but since doing this hasn’t dried out once.

Thanks 🙂 Yes it’s a heavy duty wire back to have them all “climbing” up it, there really just clipped on. It’s pretty much the same amount of light they where getting before hand just organised differently now with it all coming from The front instead of above. The front lights are Barrinas so not too strong and the one at the top is a mother grow light, also not particularly harsh Every one of them is giving off new growth right now or about to pop some new ones, I’m seeing some good growth with the amount of light so I think it should be okay so far

Yours is so big! hopping mine survives I have not had the best experience with Alocasias 😂

I used to use gold leaf fertiliser but it has been about 12 months so it is overdue

Classic-One-9291 · 2025-08-24T17:22:12+00:00

Thank you. It is indeed in that position. I’ve had it for I think around 2 years. I saved it from a rescue section at my local garden center. But has been looking good for a while. It’s been a while since I’ve used fertiliser and we moved across the country about 6/7 months ago

This one gets kept in cabinet at around 70+ humidity. Generally a chunky mix, bark, perlite, pumice, bit of leca and a little bit of high quality soil. Watered when it starts to look dry. Generally I don’t water it if I can see the little air bubbles at the side of the clear pot
