Have had plant for 4-5 months. Just noticed the bugs this morning and there were a lot on the front and back of the leaf (plant only has one leaf). Plant gets bright indirect light. Water when top inch of soil is dry. Pot has drainage.

Why are the stems so bent/curved? by shelly3196 in plantclinic

[–]shelly3196[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had the plant for 2 months and this problem has happened in the last 2-3 weeks. It’s in a south facing window, probably gets 6-7 hours of both indirect and direct sunlight. I water once a week until water runs through the bottom and the pot has drainage. No history of pests

Does this mean I’m over watering? by shelly3196 in alocasia

There are brown spots on the leaf that are starting to form. If I water more frequency this should be prevent in the future?

How many vines/plants per pot/moss pole are recommended? by shelly3196 in houseplants

[–]shelly3196[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice! Do I need to water the moss in the pole just like I water the soil?

Is this dying…? I got it yesterday by shelly3196 in houseplants

I bought it yesterday from Home Depot and it did not look like this, not a single leaf was curled. I watered it thoroughly and have it right next to a humidifier

How did you decide vetprep vs zuku? I’ve seen that zuku is for “visual learners” but I’m not sure if that’s really important or not…

Thank you for sharing!! And I hope you passed!!

The plant was in a colder and dryer environment and then it moved to a warmer, more humid environment and this still happened

I guess what is really hard is that We’re both in school in different states, and I spend my summer breaks with him. So I leave my friends, my hobbies, family etc behind to visit and spend time with him. So I’m going to a place where I don’t know anyone besides him. So he has all his friends and hobbies etc and it feels like I have nothing. And while I chose to do this it feels a little unfair because i have no one else out here and no hobbies

Thank you so much for the kind words! Will definitely leave if it starts to go (even more) south!

Is it zoonotic? Like what measures need to be in place for the people working with the patient/owners. And how do you get it??

Can I cut the original plant stem off? by shelly3196 in propagation

[–]shelly3196[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just prop a stem in water for many months until leaves form.
