Alocasias are very finicky and won’t grow many leaves unless in optimal conditions. #### Catさんが2024-03-16に返信しました humidity is in the 40s right here i have a little humidity gage and keep my humidifier on for 12 hours from 7am-7pm and the temp ranges from 72-82 #### Catさんが2024-03-16に返信しました would she maybe be happier if i keep the humidifier on longer? maybe 16 hours? #### Catさんが2024-03-16に返信しました or maybe a rock tray? with water for the hours the humidifier is off? she is up against the radiator and i’ve been messing with my other plants getting them on a more frequent schedule due to my not-optimal conditions rn. i had to move and this is the only space they can be rn ### Bella56さんが2024-03-17にコメントしました A pebble tray sounds like a good idea, they like humidity at 60% and above. As for the leaf curling, I had that happen to my Polly when I kept it on a window sill in the winter/spring so I think it a temperature issue #### Catさんが2024-03-17に返信しました tysm!!! --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
