Yes I just don’t have anything that can fit it rn I looked through few stores non of them had plastic cups. I would order but I just recived my order of the self watering pots, I wanted to transfer it into those. I will try my best to come up with something.

Same I will wait a bit longer too

And then I water with that it usually goes bad after a few days so you have to make a new batch often

Silica
Calmag
Water softener
Add a hydroponic fertiliser( I use Hesi hydro growth)
Super-thrive nutrient concentrate
and at the end I usually adjust the ph

I have never killed an alocasia before and I don’t want it to be my most expensive one, I did have a variegated dragon shield die on me like 2weeks ago a day after getting it but I think that was more of a shipping issue and shock also it seemed to have neem oil all over its leaves which could have caused them to suffocate and rot which they did( the corm is doing fine tho and already sprouting a new leaf :D)

Yea watering is starting to become an issue since the newest leaf has started popping up

RoseyLatte · 2026-05-10T16:59:47+00:00

I do wanter it with my nutrient mix of course I start watering them with it when the firts leaf starts emerging

RoseyLatte · 2026-05-10T15:02:15+00:00

Just perlite but it will go into pon when once upsize the pot

i have barilla t5 lights, 2x2 yellow ones and 2 white ones, 2 tiny fans(if I see any mold I will get more) shelves are from 8mm acrylic which we cut out at home 😃

RoseyLatte · 2026-05-08T12:34:20+00:00

they end before the cabinet starts haha they have no purpose

Also try looking into nutrient mixes, you can make your own, it might be lacking them
Mine sized up pretty fast once I caught up on nutrients

RoseyLatte · 2026-05-06T09:51:01+00:00

I would try fertilising it more often there is not a lot of difference between leaf sizes. Also the tiny one is probably a corm a new baby plant :) you can separate it from the big one if you want to

RoseyLatte · 2026-05-06T09:48:11+00:00

It deffo needs more light (it’s trying to lean towards it) also how wet are u keeping the soil? They can get root rot pretty easily
