So I broke down and bought another air plant. I don't know what I do wrong but I keep killing these little guys. But this one was just to cute to pass up. So please help me keep this one going. How do you take care of yours? I have been soaking him in rain water for 10 minutes every 2 weeks and drying it on a paper Towel before replacing him his home. Thanks for any help.
I soak mine for about 15 minutes once a week. And give it a good shake before I put them back in their home. I have several that I have had for years. And it seems to work. 😊

Soak once a week for 15 mins and let dry out before laying face up so as no water is trapped in the plant. So cute 😻

I follow Planta’s care prompts. I also let mine live in the open on a flat surface. And I am very careful about not breaking the roots.
I soak mine once a week around 20-60 minutes in distilled water. Gently shake excess water, but set upside-down for an hour or so, before putting back in their holders. I killed a few and it took me awhile to get the care right for these little guys. I have them on my office sill of a north facing window. During the winter, I'll also lightly spritz them.
Thanks everyone I will water more often and for atleast 15 minutes. I will also check into fertilizer. Thanks again

I water spray mine every other day (they have ben growing well so far) but…..thinking of doing the weekly 15 mins soak (sometimes I forget during the week and upside down drying too:)
