Help!!! My pups off my pink quill tillandsia started doing THIS? I thought the most shriveled one was a random death due to being under watered, but apparently not because the other to below started doing the same, even on a fixed watering schedule. If there are any possibilities with anything, I would like to know because I really want to improve!
How much light are they getting? What is your watering schedule?
1 me gustaSome light by my plant grow lights, but I water them 3 times a week

1 me gustaMy bad, apparently they were formerly placed in Tillandisa, but now are placed in Wallisia
0 Me gusta That’s alright! Usually with bromeliads I’d recommend propagating them in some kind of medium. I think they might be drying out too fast. I like to mount mine using sphagnum moss on wood, it looks cool.
1 me gusta You can always just put them in some well draining soil though
1 me gustaTYSM, you are such a life saver 🫶 I will probably do just that. Thankyou.
0 Me gustaDo you mist them daily? Do you use distilled or filtered water? Do you soak them in a bowl of water. Periodically, maybe every 7 to 14 days? Air plants will not do well planted in soil even though they are bromeliads. I suppose there could be exceptions but in general air plants do not thrive in soil.
