Recently got an air plant for the first time from Lowe’s and I was wondering if anyone had any tips? Anything is much appreciated!

Great podcast on Growing Joy with Maria with airplantman from IG

Soak in lightly fertilized water a couple times a week up to an hour, then let dry out for a hour and put back where it came from

Make sure to let it dry upside down near a fan. And use distilled water

Don’t soak/water it and immediately put it back in that container you have it in or it will rot. They need to dry out completely (upside down best) after getting wet.
