I got these two philodendrons about three months ago and they have shown no growth. Can someone explain what I can do to help them? I was told they needed more sun, so I moved their spot to the window.

Depends, what kind of fertilizer are you using? Have they ever been repotted?

#### Tiffani replied on 2023-06-04

They have been repotted. I was using this stuff from Amazon (I forget the name right now), then I switched to a miracle grow brand. I was told yesterday miracle grow isn’t good so I’ll need to get a different kind. I also have fox farm ocean forest soil

How often do you water them and how dry/moist is the soil when you do?

Might also be seasonal, the more visibly active growing season will depend on where your plants are

If these are white wizard, white knight varieties, from my experience, they just grow very slowly. Mine has only grown maybe 6 leaves in two years and it’s under a grow light in greenhouse like conditions.

Make sure it doesn’t have a growth plug in the roots :)
