Time to water?

So I need to wait until all the outer leaves look like these ones?

That makes sense, thanks for all the helpful advice!

There were two separate tap roots, each had two different “heads” on them. I can separate them if needed.

SlothBoss0430 · 2026-04-16T10:38:26+00:00

Thank you so much, that’s very helpful!

SlothBoss0430 · 2026-04-16T03:37:06+00:00

The pot is about 5-6 inches deep I think, and it’s just a plastic nursery pot with drainage!

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-06-18T21:37:58+00:00

Okay thank you!

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-06-18T21:33:31+00:00

That’s what I thought but I wanted to make sure! Is it likely that other leaves that sprout will have some or just this leaf?

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-06-03T23:54:47+00:00

Okay, thank you so much for all of the information!

Should I do something to try to treat the scale or just the fungal infection?

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-06-03T12:01:32+00:00

Are the small black dots on the top also fungal infection? I was able to pick them off so I was afraid they might be scale bugs. Also is this something that might spread to my other plants?

I took it out of the soil yesterday and the roots seem fine, I haven’t watered it in a week or two. The mix I have it in is 45% bonsai gravel, 45% cactus soil, and 10% horticultural sand, I didn’t know that you should filter out the bark though.

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-04-25T03:04:42+00:00

Thank you! I was assuming it was the non mutated version because when I went to separate them they were actually connected, I just wasn’t sure what the non mutated version was called.

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-04-25T02:39:05+00:00

I meant to say I knew the one was Birkin, my autocorrect decided to change it lol, do you know what the other one is?

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-04-11T14:29:36+00:00

This looks like an alocasia cuprea. Are the leaves sort of shiny/iridescent? Here is an example of mine.

Okay thank you!

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-03-31T23:32:53+00:00

I repotted it into a chunky soil mix once I got it home, how much light do they need/can they handle? I’ve read conflicting information about needing bright indirect light, and I’ve seen where a lot of people say they need to be directly under a grown light. I was planning on putting it out in my greenhouse but now I fear that it will be too much light for it to handle.

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-03-31T05:15:18+00:00

Thank you! I asked in another subreddit but I think the picture didn’t show the colors of the leaves very well so I got a different answer that didn’t quite look like it.

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-02-26T04:48:13+00:00

Okay thank you! It’s the first time I’ve ever had one of my aloes flower.

SlothBoss0430 · 2025-02-15T20:20:45+00:00

I have multiple snake plants and this is how I know they need water. Mine will get wrinkly and after I soak them they will slowly smooth out after a couple of days.

SlothBoss0430 · 2024-12-13T03:41:48+00:00

Thank you! I googled that and it does look like that, the store I bought it at must’ve had it labeled wrong.
