My alcoasia black velvet has definitely fallen ill. I repotted to a pot with better drainage and I thought she was getting better with this new growth but this white chalky thing just came out instead of a new leaf 😅 does anyone have any idea what is going on? New to plants

Hi all. I got this alocasia melo over the weekend. Any idea why its leaves are turning limey green/yellow? Thanks!

I’m in the process of transitioning my alocasia polly to leca and I found a bunch of corms while repotting! Any tips for propagation?

I went away for two weeks and my Alocasia (Polly?) is doing very bad. It lost a leaf. Any tips for bringing this baby back?

This Black Velvet was bought with 2 leaves. One of them was imperfect so I trimmed it. It seemed fine for a while but I just noticed a quick progression of yellowing as shown in the update photo. I’ve cut the leaf off and thrown it away. Where it’s not just yellowing, but also has some dry graying on the end, I’m hoping that it’s unique enough to help you all identify exactly what the problem was. The other leaf is in perfect condition and there is another leaf starting to pop out. The yellow leaf is the oldest leaf if that helps. Thank you for any feedback you might have.

Question, whats the best alocasia for a person who is new to alocasias?

Does anyone know what is causing these brown tips? I don’t think it’s a humidity thing. They’re not dry and the plant is right next to a humidifier. It’s planted in leca and I water it with purived plant food.

So she’s been doing well but is in a transition period from soil to lechuza pon, so she’s slowly trying to transform her soil roots to water roots
 could that be why I’m getting spots like this? Looks like overwatering to me so I’m thinking the pon is only dry on top and I need to stick to a strict schedule as it’s holding more moisture in the bottom pebbles than I realize. Cause it’s not like soil, it’s hard to dip your finger to feel tiny pebbles lol
 makes a mess by spilling them over the pot. My thoughts were I needed to water once a week and adding a tiny bit to the reservoir to help it grow water roots, is that too often? Sometimes I may even add water sooner than a week if I notice leaves curling a bit but maybe I need to focus on humidity vs. watering. Thoughts?

I am struggling!!!!!!! My baby is slowly dying and I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Some are telling me lighting, some are saying water proportions and I don’t know which way to go! I will be trimming off the yellow leaves. Any suggestions?

Got this dying low rider about 6 months ago, it’s now thriving! They are high maintenance plants but once you figure them out it’s so rewarding. đŸ„°
