Calling all Experts!

I switched all my Alocasias and a few other genes to Pon (or stratum first to help the transition) and since then, 70% of them go through guttation as soon as I water them.

I let them dry out 75% or so before watering. I use RO water with light doses of SuperThrive and they are all under grow lights. My apartment stays consistent at 76 degrees and 44% humidity.

Guttation feels like a symptom that needs to be addressed. Am I wrong?

It’s a natural thing for plants to do, some do more often than others. Nothing to worry about.

Guttation is a natural process in plants that allows them to push out or secrete excess liquid from its leaves. This allows houseplants to regulate their growing conditions independently. Guttation can occur when a plant has been overwatered or under stress, or the plant could be perfectly fine and want to balance its nutrients or minerals. I don’t think it’s anything to worry about unless you are seeing other signs of stress.

Thank you!! That was my concern.. that I may be overwatering or over fertilizing, given I didn't experience guttation before putting them in semi-hydro.

Guttation is perfectly normal. No need to stress if they aren’t showing any other signs of overwatering. 👍
