Help!! My alocasia tiny dancer is sporting some spots on her leaves. I'm not sure what l'm doing wrong. I don't let her dry out completely...l've read that you shouldn't so l bottom water her every 3-4 days and she seems to want it. Wondering if I'm overwatering her. She's under a grow light and room humidity is just under 60%. She's so unique and pretty...I don't want to lose her. š¢
No expert but looks like sunburn/light burn
0 Likes Really? From under a grow light? Itās off to the side so it doesnāt get direct light.
Did you try diagnosing on the app?

I was going to say the same thing. I donāt have any of my alocasia under direct grow lights.

I do and itās closer than yours is in the picture so Iām not sure if thatās the issue. From my experience, the leaves start to go pale when I have my grow lights too close to my plants.
3 Likes Do you rotate this plant? If not, and all the damage is on the side where the light is, thatās a good indicator that the light is the issue. If you donāt rotate it and thereās damage on both sides of the plant, then thereās got to be another cause.
0 Likes Certain bulbs have a great lumin count which is basically like shining direct sun light if you canāt dim the lights try to place the light where they are indirect from the light but Iām waiting to see what the pros are going to comment cause I might be wrong but from what I do far learned thatās my assumption

Real sunlight is BEST. Thatās how nature intended it to be. I donāt like grow lights
0 Likes I mean that should be common sense but not everyone has the proper lighting or windows to accommodate plants with āreal natural sunlightā but good for you šš¼
