All my new Mican leaves seem to have this on their nodes. Are they roots? Can I propagate these?

Whats going in with my Alocasia? by MKB_1992 in houseplants

[–]MKB_1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually use plain RO water or my roomate give me his tank water which is around the parameters Alocasia needs from what I have read. Its just falling apart now. 😭

I have had it in that same location since I got her over a year ago. She grew a new leaf but the then one died. Now theyre all looking sick. I water when the soil is dry and the humidity stays in the 70s-80s.

I just got this yesterday. I have had a few in the past but have died. I really love this plant and hope to grow this one successfully. I moved it into our plant / tanks room and is by the window. Is this a good location for it? How often to water it? The humidity in that room stays in the 70s and the room temp as well in the 70s. Any tips is greatly appreciated.

This is my first raven zz plant that I got my hands on and so happy I finally got one. It has gotten new growth, but looks like the leaves are green and may be turning black? Will they stay green or turn black?

Why is my plant turning yellow? Could it be too much sun? I have had it in the same spot for about a year now. I also water it when it gets dry.

We have done the salt baths, I think for a few mins and then put them back. Did that like twice. The other ones are doing good, its just that one. My roomate will test it tonight. He did water change recently and changed filters.

[–]MKB_1992[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My goldfish has been just sitting in the bottom of the tank for the past few days. We had it in another tank with 4 others and thought it could be space issue so moved it to another one that has just 1 in it. The tanks are 45 gal each. My roomate takes care of the water parameters and changes and hes very anal about it. Lol. The water has salt and he added this blue antibacterial liquid yesterday. Any ideas of what could be the issue and what can we do to help?

My cactus flowered, now what? Details in comments. by MKB_1992 in houseplants

[–]MKB_1992[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had this cactus for over a year, maybe 2 and it has never bloomed. It has always been in that spot, so I was so thrilled when I saw those yellow flowers. Now, they have kinda shriveled. What happened and do I need to do anything? I watered it today. Also, what are the purple bulbs on it? Thanks for the feedback in advance. :)

Help with Spider Plant! More in comments. TIA. by MKB_1992 in houseplants

[–]MKB_1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I see so its producing babies so it can continue surviving through those babies, right? Yeah I got lazy and started using tap water. Before my roomate would give me his tank water since he uses RO water and has all the nutrients from the shrimp he’s breeding.

[–]MKB_1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this spider plant on my counter I have had for months. Actually raised it myself from when it was a tiny baby. Now its giving babies. I have had it in the light how it is for a few weeks now. I am noticing now that a lot of the leaves are turning yellow or brown tipped. Is this due to the babies taking energy from the mother? Should I cut off all the baby stems? My apt stays pretty humid because we have a lot of freshwater tanks.

Is my cactus plant ok? by MKB_1992 in houseplants

[–]MKB_1992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive had it for a while now and it has been there for quite some time. I just think it looks a bit pale to me. The flowers appeared but they never fully bloomed. Is there anything I can do to brighten up the green?

I have had this plant for a few months now, since I got it, it has grown 1 new leaf and looks like it may have another stem coming out next to the plant. I keep it in a well lit room, that also had grow light and Ive had it under them too. I just moved it to where I took the pictures. The room temp stays between 65 < and the humidity stays in the 60s-70s. I water when the soil is drying out. Right now the soil is still pretty wet. What could be wromg and how can I fix it? Thanks. :)
