Love the pot! And good luck with the syngonium! 🌱

#### PhiloFox svarte den 2024-09-08

thank you. any tips? 😅 brighter light?

#### Adrian svarte den 2024-09-08

I’ve never had one, but from what I know about them, they have a big humidity need and enjoy a good east/west window. About how many hours of light does it get? As for humidity, a room humidifier placed close to it should help, or placing it in a humidity cabinet. Hope this helps!

#### PhiloFox svarte den 2024-09-08

that does help! it's in an east window, with a shade, and grow lights.

#### Adrian svarte den 2024-09-08

Doesn’t sound like a light problem, then. I say see if you can get a humidifier for the space (and place other humidity-loving plants with it. Placing plants close together creates a micro-humidity increase for them. I pair my peperomia together who have a normal humidity need and I’ve never needed a humidifier for them, but for a syngonium or high humidity plant, a humidifier should help much more). If that still doesn’t help it, perhaps consider a soil, pot, or watering problem, or try using filtered/distilled water if you’re using tap. Some plants are very sensitive to tap.

I think chopping was probably your best bet! I don’t keep a humidifier on mine but or house stays pretty cold so the soil stays moist for about 5-7 days. I will mist occasionally when new leaves are pushing out or they look a bit dry. My one biggest recommendation is a well draining soil and make sure the pot has drainage. They like really bright light but not really hot temps or direct sun.

I bottom water and top water, just depending on how I feel. I use tap water but our water here is pretty good, a little hard so I do top water to flush minerals.

I have a painted arrow and a three kings and they’re pretty much the same care wise. I have them under two grow lights but my living room is quite dark

#### PhiloFox svarte den 2024-09-08

oooh thank you! it's in a little ceramic pot now, with drainage. under my grow light in an east window

#### Kades svarte den 2024-09-08

Sounds like a good set up to me! You’ll probably be pretty good with the light (photos included just to show my lighting)

If you find that it seems to be getting leggy again you may need to move it closer to the grow light

#### PhiloFox svarte den 2024-09-08

thanks bunches! it can't rly get any closer to the grow light but I've been thinking I may need different lighting....
