Hope your family had a wonderful vacation! Congrats on no plant death.
Haha....we went camping for a week and it was awesome
As your plants mature and grow even larger, and as you expand your wonderful collection, your family will eventually have to send a search party into the basement jungle to find you!
I know!!! 😂
I’m new to Alocasias and I recently bought a Frydek which I left in the pot it arrived in. After a few days I noticed one of the leaves starting to yellow. I removed it from the pot and found a large ball of absolutely saturated sphagnum right below the rhizome. I repotted it in an open mix and although the yellowing leave did die off a new one soon came in and it seems to be growing away nicely! I had a polly previously which I threw away because it had no leaves and had some root rot but which I would now have persevered with! It’s certainly all just a big learning curve!
Yes it is and I'm glad that you are able to learn something from this video.... And now to happy growing!
Hope you had a great vacation! I cut all the leaves in my anthuriums because they started to really yellow and drop, i asked at my plant shop and they told me to go ahead, that the plant would bounce back, to put it near a window or outside. It did, it is growing new leaves! I also gave it a shower of algie solution once a week for a month. I am happy that it is bouncing back real nice.
That is so awesome to hear!
Your videos are always so educational and I really appreciate that, I've learned so much from watching your videos! I've unfortunately experienced plant death from people i had checking on my plants while i was away. I hope you had a great vacation
That sucks....did they over water?
I have missed seeing a new clip from you and now I know why there hasn’t been one! I hope you had a fun vacation.
I’m going away at the end of the month for three weeks and I’m already so worried about what I’ll find upon my return. I’ll be leaving notes with instructions for my husband but I have to be prepared for casualties -even fatality 😂- , unfortunately. I have been transferring my cherished syngoniums into Lechuza pon with hopes that their survival has a better chance… I shall see!
Welcome back! I know it’s a lot of work to attend to each plant after a break.
AWWW...thanks and stay tuned for more videos!
I hear that to about yellow leave and is true
I wish there was a way to test it out
It's funny, I stayed away from alocasias because ofcthe spidermites but now that I have dealt with them I'm not so worried. Lol. You make a valid point that they're fast growing and can recover quickly
They are such lovely plants!
@@EverythingPlants I agree!
Great video, lots of info. I always look forward to getting back to my see how my plants are doing when I've been gone.
I always get worried about some of them lol
Welcome back from vacation! Good video! 💚🪴
Thank you!! 😁
I’m just getting into alocasias. I’ve been afraid because of spider mites. I have the Polly and the Jacklyn in lechuza Pon. They seem to love the self watering system. I just make sure I check them every other day and wipe them down with neem oil and dr bronners peppermint soap. Love your videos😊
Ya....mine have been pretty good for awhile. The good thing is they are fairly fast growing plants, so I'm not worried when I cut off the leaves haha
I also find they grow very well in just perlite
Thank you for sharing your tips! I was on the die hard leaf leave ON team, but I am going to experiment with cutting ugly/damaged leaves off (if the plant has lots of leaves) to see if it encourages new growth. Especially my anthurium seem to get lazy sometimes. Great video!
I've never noticed any difference with either method TBH. If they are ugly, then cut them off 😂
Hope you had a great week away 🥰
And thank you for all the helpful tips!
I lost my alocasia jacklyn and xanthosoma lindenii while I was away in Mexico, it was so upsetting coming home and seeing droopy leaves
I sure hope you saved the stems!!! They would regrow
@@EverythingPlants I cut them both, the jacklyn hasn’t grown , so I cut it right down and put the corms in a make shift greenhouse curtesy of my Tim’s ice coffee cup lol and the xanthosoma had no activity either so I did the same then it rotted
Sooo I went out and bought news ones 😂
Great tips thank you👍

It's been taught to me, from working in greenhouses to only remove one-third of any plant at a time unless absolutely necessary due to pests or disease. I was told it shocks the plant too much and just causes undue stress. I don't know if this helps you or not, it's just what I have been taught by the owners who went through horticultural/ag culture education specifically for house plants and tropical plants.
I like to push my plants to the LIMITS hahaha. I have zero risk for a business or profit. I have also heard that in the past about only removing 1/3. Thanks so much for sharing
Yeah, been leaving my windows open on nice days. Not anymore as I have found all kinds of pests today. Boo!
Oh no. What did you find? Thrips and spider mites are big right now.
Hi jeff i hope you had a wonderful vacay ☺️
Thanks for sharing your beautiful alocasia I think im going to get one this weekend 🤞
Nice! What kind are you looking for right now?
@@EverythingPlants i have been looking for variegated one
Hi Jeff. I see your talavera pottery. Lovely . Glad too see the video. Great content. 😊
Hey, thanks!
@@EverythingPlants your always welcome,Jeff. 👍
You have an amazing collection! I love your clear and concise informative style. i've learned a lot form your channel. I also love those colorful ceramic painted looking pots. They look very Mediterranean! Are they only available in Canada?
Thank you so much!
Hey! Beautiful plants as usual. Pretty non-related to this video, but I have a new tetrasperma that is bushy with small, unfenestrated leaves in the bottom. Do you think I can cut those off for better growth and looks?
I would definitely leave them on to help photosynthesize....the plant will build up energy for new growth.
@@EverythingPlants Thanks! You have a beautiful tetrasperma btw (If you still have it after an year)
I do and I actually made more from that plant
Nice video, I would like to see more proppergation videos just a suggestion. Thanks.
Of course!!!
@@EverythingPlants and I'm getting into Hoyas so any info on those plants would be great!
Can I use phone app as a light meter?
There are some out there for free....yes!
