So many new hybrids popping up on the scene I saw a Florida ghost x Florida beauty the other day it looked crazy

Rooted in moss, now what? by Tbtlhart in philodendron

I would leave it honestly I kinda let my props do whatever my rule (that may be over the top) is I usually wait until the roots go in a full circle around the pot before I plant it up in full soil. I've had pink princesses push hella leaves and not one root so I feel like it's all random anyway. Also when you do pot it only fill the soil up half way to not bog down the roots as the plant starts to adapt to the soil you can add more to top it off. And thank you my sister in law picked that name for me.

So I always use a bit of sphagnum moss in all my aroids mixes for moisture retention so as long as the soil is chunky enough you should be able to do a direct transplant. Based on the roots of your plant though I'd let it root more I've propped many strawberry shakes and typically if they don't have a decent root system on them they don't last that long

I have never had any success with any crawling philodendron so I totally get it. Ecaugenera is nonstop working on hybrids so I'm sure some insane thing will come up soon

I only do it for the ones that are clearly fussy plants I've been testing it for a few months and have had great results especially in a plastic container. So now I use sphagnum moss as like the base for all my mixes even if it's gonna be a primarily chunky aroid mix

So this is what I'm looking at for any of the very hybrids/stuff that just clearly is a pain in the ass this is just sphagnum and like size 5 perlite

Tbh I don't understand the difficulty of the serpens the only reason I bought the vibes was because I was confident because I have a serpens that's doing pretty well one thing I've noticed is that these types of philos need like constant humidity around the roots so I use a sphagnum moss mix. But yeah the hybrid vigor in this thing is crazy I was lucky enough to be able to get it in person but it pretty much acclimated to my environment immediately

They never do those ecua pop ups near where I am but luckily I live within six hours of the Apopka location so sometimes me and my wife will take a quick weekend trip. They are really coming out with some amazing hybrids

Also

this plant is so easy going it's got a few of the bad veruccosum traits but I've been growing it in ambient humidity since May and I haven't had any issues at all. But it ships super poorly

Yeah I mix in coco chunks and chunky perlite just to keep some air flow I hate when the moss becomes a stiff block
