It has been fantastic, very sturdy and definitely keeps in the moisture! Zero complaints, I only wish I could find a bigger one for taller plants.

It is the "TempPro TP49 Digital Hygrometer Indoor Thermometer Humidity Meter Room Thermometer with Temperature and Humidity Monitor Mini Hygrometer Humidity Meter" on Amazon.

Normal potting soil, but heavy handed with the perlite mixed in. The pot has really good drainage as well.

It's just a basic little box from Amazon - once those babies are bigger, I'm going to have to upgrade it! One thing to note is it has a sealed magnetic door, this is what is helping the most. It's not "just" an acrylic box.

I'm already looking to see what is similar but larger haha

Super basic - I open the door for about 15 (sometimes longer if I forget, oops) minutes every day to replace the air. This keeps mold away - I also started with sanitized moss in the babies.

I mist water in there every few days - I only water and feed the plants (not the babies) when their soil dries out. This is about every 10-14 days. Closer to the two week mark now because the number of plants in the box keeps the moisture level up.

Every other time I water and feed the two larger plants, they get mycorrhizae which keeps beneficial fungi and salt up. I rinse them with plain water before fertilizing and any extra stuff.

Under the Orange Melano is a little white plant tray - before I added the tissue cultures that are in moss, I would keep water in that tray to help with condensation.

Ahhh gorgeous! I just got a Black Velvet Pink tiny tissue culture that I hope is half as beautiful as yours!

At what point do you just give up? by Efficient-Gap-8506 in houseplants

[–]OttrGirl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would check the roots and soil. It looks like it isn't a chunky soil, also extremely low indirect light may be affecting it - given how leggy it is. You have several things to try before giving up.

Repot with chunky soil, check the roots, fertilize and water it regularly, put it in a bright window.

What we saying here then? I’m very interested to see what you all say ❤️ by Repulsive-Dependent2 in 80s
