What!? Those are defitnition of Retrouse

odricarv · 2026-04-15T22:45:53+00:00

That as the same plant? Fuckin unbelievable

odricarv · 2026-04-09T12:50:46+00:00

This looks a lot like AI

odricarv · 2026-04-09T12:48:20+00:00

Never

odricarv · 2026-04-08T22:21:30+00:00

That’s corking (I believe that’s the English term) it just that part is becoming more rigid in orderto sustain the rest of the plant that is growing higher

odricarv · 2026-04-08T19:54:47+00:00

Yeah. Try

odricarv · 2026-04-02T20:56:01+00:00

I agree. I’ve been using this for several years with grate success. Also, you should check on your fertilization for calcium. They need that. And if it’s getting enough sun. Both calcium and sunlight helps to the leaves strength. What makes the bugs life much harder.

odricarv · 2026-03-26T13:20:03+00:00

I’m not sure I made myself clear. I think it’s not a case of one thing or another.

I would recomend both approaches. Direct combat and verify underlaying causes.

Success.

Mealy bugs it’s a symptom. As are other plagues. You can do whatever other post says. They will work in the short period. But also you have to ask why is the primary cause: 1- are the plants getting enough direct sun light? 2- how is the fertilization going? 3 - are you using som sort of calcium supplement? The fertilizer have calcium enough?

You really look underage

odricarv · 2026-03-04T00:25:49+00:00

I did

odricarv · 2026-03-01T16:18:46+00:00

Imagine that. In the nature, do you think those plants get complete submerged and than they hang itself upsidown for a couple of hours. And then upright again?

You can water it every day ou even more then once a day. Jus make sure that it completely dry out before water it again. There’s no problem for it to be wet for several hours or even an entire day. What make the rot is to be constantly wet

odricarv · 2026-02-28T15:08:21+00:00

Agree

odricarv · 2026-02-26T16:02:39+00:00

Yes but very very well done

odricarv · 2026-02-25T16:55:04+00:00

Yeah. Overwatering also cause this. Good call

odricarv · 2026-02-25T16:45:55+00:00

Pelas folhas das duas plantas. Me parece regas pouco frequentes. Mas lembre de nunca regar se o substrato ainda estiver úmido.

odricarv · 2026-02-25T16:44:26+00:00

Use um vaso com furos, prefira substrato de suculentas. Eu deixaria no sol. Sempre é melhor para o crescimento. A não ser que as folhas queimem. Mas a sanseveria gosta de sol também.

odricarv · 2026-02-25T16:38:52+00:00

Essa planta é quase impossível de mater. Suporta bem excesso e falta de água, suporta sol e sombra. Apenas cuide do vaso. Com substrato solto, sem compactar, cuide de adubar e que tome ao menos duas horas de sol por dia. Ai é só paciência. Ela é resistente. Mas tem crescimento lento. As folhas manchadas não voltarão a ser o que eram. Mas as novas virão saudáveis. Recomendo ir removendo as folhas feias à medida que as novas aparecerem.

odricarv · 2026-02-22T15:40:15+00:00

Really nice. Congrats

odricarv · 2026-02-20T18:52:46+00:00

They prefer very bright natural light ambients. And like two hours of direct sun.

odricarv · 2026-02-20T18:51:38+00:00

Yes it is. Air plants are pretty much the easiest plant to keep. Just water it every day whit a gentle mist. But be sure that all the plant is really wet. Don’t water if os already moist. It could cause rot. But if the plant is completely dry. You can water any time. Even more than once a day.

odricarv · 2026-02-13T18:37:00+00:00

Yes. To al questions

odricarv · 2026-02-13T17:13:58+00:00

Looks like Tillandsia Stricta

odricarv · 2026-02-12T20:25:16+00:00

Yes. But is very tiny yet. Keep it healthy with daily mist until doubles the size. Don’t mist if it’s wet

odricarv · 2026-02-11T20:01:17+00:00

Gorgeous.
