does anyone have any tips for transferring baby alocasias grown from corms from sphagnum moss to chunky soil? i grew some nairobi nights corms in sphagnum in sealed high humidity environments and they were doing well, then i took them out of these environments to prep for being in ambient and in soil, but they didn’t like that :(

Are these black spots a fungus? Should I cut them all off and let her start fresh? I bought this about 2 weeks ago and repotted it. Leaves were all green and now all but 1 have these spots. Roots look great.

Can someone help me identify what this is first time seeing it. Is it baby’s? I’m guessing a corm but these have no bulb structure and are straight and pointy. Are they corms?

How long does an alocasia bambino take to grow new leaves? Had mine for over a month and it came with an unfurled leaf but nothing after that. I humidify pretty often and it gets pretty bright indirect light.

I found this at one of my local spots. It didn’t come with a type but google is saying alocasia sinuata but the Planta app is saying Dragon scale. Anyone know for sure? The leaf definitely has some texture to it.

hey!! first post here, but recently my baby silver dragon gave me this new leaf with what i think is variegation on it, but none of it’s other leaves have been variegated so far, so just thought i’d come on here and get some outside opinions on it. many thanks!

Got these two baby alocasias (frydek variegated & snow)- I put them in this terrarium set up that I have never used before. Any suggestions? Should I separate them? I know alocasias can be dramatic, so I want to settle them into their new homes quickly and not shock them too much! They are also covered with a glass top

I just repotted my pink dragon plant yesterday but put it in a pot without drainage holes 😰 is it okay for me to keep it in here? Or should I move it to a something else? It’s been thriving so I don’t want it to get sad ):

Does anyone know if it’s normal for my black velvet alocasia to have little water droplets falling from the tips of the leaves? It started when I watered it a few days ago, it in a cabinet with no humidifier and I don’t mist it. It appears to be perfectly healthy though.

I’m propagating a corm in fluval stratum and it’s developing the brown skin that I already peeled off. Is that normal?
