just wanted to make a post to show off my beautiful boy! he’s doing so well, so happy and healthy and i am over the moon! so proud of myself for taking such good care of such a high maintenance plant, he’s thriving and he’s putting out new growth after a month of having him! i’m just so excited, that’s all! :)

Beautiful! Mine is struggling; what is your secret?

i keep a humidifier running constantly since i live at elevation and i have it on the lowest setting, sometimes middle setting if it’s a really hot day. light was a struggle for a bit so i got a grow light that i have on a 12 hr timer at the brightest setting. i usually water every 3-4 days since it is so dry where i live but i always check the soil first. otherwise i give him lots of praise and tell him how pretty he is haha, maybe it’s going to his head but i swear it helps!

Good job! I have over 200 plants that are all doing well but I have killed every single one of those I have ever owned. 🤦🏼
