I was afraid when I first got it, too. But got a moisture meter to learn when it liked to be watered, and now it gets watered when itās around 20%. I got it around July 1, 2024, and itās put out leaves like CRAZY! I keep it under a cheap grow light, give it basic liquid fertilized according to Plantaās schedule, repotted it a few weeks ago, and itās just loving it.

Oh, and during the repotting I saw a whole bunch of new corms sprouting under the soil!

Wow they are beautiful!! Do you find theyāre heavy feeders? And are they directly under grow lights or is there some distance? I heard they donāt love light as much as other Alocasiaās do
