I’ve been using planta for years \& never explored this end of it! Hi everyone!! We’re huge tropical enthusiasts. These are some of our plant children. We’re super excited to share \& learn more!

You look experienced so let me ask you a question. I’ve been doing my alocasias in pon/stratum/perlite in mason jars… like this… do I need to remove the dead soil roots? Water roots are starting to grow but I do see some mushy roots in the jar. I tried getting info on it but got conflicting answers. Thanks so much!

welcome! there’s lots to learn here, i’d recommend scrolling through all the different groups to find those that suit your interests. my favorites are foliage plant haven, hoya hoarders, plant identification, and the expert level greenspace, which is perfect for horticulture nerds like me
