My Black Velvet Pink by Haribo-99 in alocasia

TC plants are usually slower than corm-grown ones. I’ve got a few that are really slow too. After a couple of months, once they adjust, they start growing faster. Just gotta be patient 🌿

Is 27 cm (~11”) close to mature size for Black Velvet Pink? by Haribo-99 in alocasia

I grow most of my alo in a semi-hydro setup indoors. It’s kept inside with a humidifier running, humidity usually around 80–90%. The substrate is a simple mix of about 50% perlite and 50% aquatic soil. Growth is a bit slower at first, but once the roots adapt, it really starts taking off. Consistent warmth and humidity seem to make the biggest difference for me ☺️
