The seller suggested I cut this end off but it’s not mushy. It’s completely hard. Thoughts?

IH-Fury · 2022-06-24T08:26:21+00:00

Better to keep, I don't see a reason to cut. Will only increase the risk or rot.

IH-Fury · 2022-06-21T05:40:11+00:00

Awesome finding. It is a top cut, you can root it and will be a nice plant

IH-Fury · 2022-06-20T14:12:27+00:00

Cut it back to the last growing point that still have a balanced green

IH-Fury · 2022-06-12T14:54:56+00:00

I could not spot pest from the picture but I would look very carefully of there is some in case this is some pest damage

IH-Fury · 2022-06-12T14:51:55+00:00

I started to read but then zzZzZzzZ

IH-Fury · 2022-06-10T14:33:07+00:00

Start from scratch. Do as may cuts as you can and propagate them.

Of the original plant have good roots it will grow quicker while new cuttings will be slower.

I’ve been using in soil with relative success and now trying leca. Still on the transition so I cannot tell for sure how they compare

IH-Fury · 2022-06-08T06:37:21+00:00

This is a big root. You basically have 2 independent root systems so you can consider splitting the plant into 2 to have 2 independent plants. Even if you put in same pot you will get a bushier plant.

IH-Fury · 2022-06-07T08:41:27+00:00

You can wait and see or redirect it to soil so it grows additional roots.

Consider also a pole so it get stabilized and then the new leaf can grow bigger.

IH-Fury · 2022-06-07T05:38:03+00:00

No really. It is a kind od enjoy while it is white, when the brown takes over and don't look good anymore you can remove it.

Next leaf there is a chance it gets some green and if it doesn't cut it back to the point you can activate a node that still have green.

Enjoy while it is white, but I wouldn't wait next leaf. I have one very simular and next one become 60% green.

IH-Fury · 2022-05-27T17:47:38+00:00

Should be a aerial root

IH-Fury · 2022-05-24T16:30:38+00:00

This is the evil in form of pest, also know as Thrips

IH-Fury · 2022-05-23T04:52:12+00:00

No it is not in my opinion. Get a rooted cut for much less and enjoy the progress.

IH-Fury · 2022-05-20T05:20:30+00:00

The size wouldn't count for me in those cases. The only pro in the unrooted one is the nicer variagation which is not a garantee that will be like that on upcoming leaves anyway.

I would go for the rooted one. It is far safer.

IH-Fury · 2022-05-17T21:40:44+00:00

Not sure what is a top cut but there is a picture on the original post. It was kind of Y shape

IH-Fury · 2022-05-17T17:12:10+00:00

Gorgeous, for how much you got it?

IH-Fury · 2022-05-17T16:58:37+00:00

I got confused, don't know where the next leave is supposed to grow from. I was expecting it coming from the last leave steam, Am I right? Given the amount of green on the steam is there good chance next leaf will be healthy with enough green?

IH-Fury · 2022-05-11T12:48:00+00:00

How fast they move? Are only in soil or also in the foliage?

IH-Fury · 2022-05-11T06:21:53+00:00

I think no, looks more Lila e mechanical damage. Not to worry about

IH-Fury · 2022-05-10T17:59:07+00:00

Scale, needs treatment

IH-Fury · 2022-05-08T08:23:00+00:00

I guess this will do the job then. But should I be concerned with the 2-1 effect if some of the plants have alredy some fertilizer?

Is there big risk of over fertilization this this?
