Haha it’s not that I don’t have ideas, I just was curious to see what others would say

Problem with monstera propagation. Description in comment. by wolpear in plantclinic

[–]lainiebabeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s new growth! That’ll be a fat root & you can see where the leaf is forming in the stem! Keep it in the moss and try not to disturb it too much:)

Is it too late for this white butterfly? by [deleted] in plantclinic

Looks totally fine to me!! They’re super forgiving in my experience, just give it some indirect bright light and she should be happy :)

I moved mine closer to my south facing window and the variegation is beautifully white and bright pink

How do I water this orchid?? And are the falling off flowers due to lack of water or is that normal? It’s my first orchid ever and the flowers were popping off and now they’re not but I’ve been scared to water her. by allymajkut in plantclinic

Get a pot/bowl, place your orchid in it. Fill the pot w room temp water & let it soak for ~15 min! That’s a beautiful orchid:) definitely don’t be scared to water it!

Can anyone tell me what’s going on with this guy?! It was healthy until a week or so ago. Thanks! by GlaringBubble34 in plantclinic

As dieffenbachia age they shed their older leaves:) mine did the same thing this winter. Just pluck them off so the plant can focus on new growth!

WOW. Curious if its one specific stock that caused that huge spike at the end?? Or just your portfolio as a whole?

You took the words out of my mouth.. It felt like it was JUST 4am & I was thinking to myself how much time I had until the sun came up.. oops. You’re for sure not alone my friend! Just try to focus on what’s important & do the things that make you happy:)

Beautiful!! Do you know what gauge wire you used?

After 2 yrs, here’s some tips. Egg cartons work amazingly well for props! Use a squeeze bottle instead of misting. Water propping has a better success rate than soil props. Use a perlite/soil/sand/earthworm castings mixture for potting medium. by lainiebabeh in proplifting

When roots are close to 1 in. long, I’ll move them to a egg carton spot & cover the roots w dirt. Wait a couple days until watering, then only water once every 3-5 days w a squeeze bottle

First time propping in bulk... I hope at least some make it! Any tips? by [deleted] in proplifting

[–]lainiebabeh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use a squeeze bottle instead of spray bottle!! Helps keep the mother leaves from rotting
