    Wow! What planting medium are you using? My alocasias are struggling right now.

      My Black stem soil is basic but effective - 1/3 Orchid Bark - 2/3 MG soil - 1 to 2 Cups Perlite toward the bottom. 4 draining holes bottom of deep pot. Fertilizer weekly Summer/Grow season. (she’s hungry for her size) Same mix for my other Alocasia Minus one or two that haven’t been repotted yet. Light is a big must! She loves her grow light!
