Th roots help it climb to get more light or water. It doesn’t look dehydrated. It may need more light. 🪴🍀
いいね 1件Traditionally they are staked upwards. Or stake put into a pot, and plants arranged around the base. You can put in a thick stake near to the plant and tie the plant loosely upwards. I dont have a pic of mine on here, so Ill attach a Pic from google for visual. It makes them much easier to handle, and harvest when ypu get to that growth.

0件のいいねI mean you could, like you would a monestera or climbing philo or something, but they are usually only a fee inches long, so wouldn't reach the soil from the top.
