@mingle27العام الماضيI have an indoor plant fertilizer tip. If you use a liquid fertilizer take a piece of duct tape about the size of your hand and put it on the side or the id="hidden1" class="buttons"> bottom of the bottle. You can then write on it with a sharpie or really good pain and you can put the date that you fertilized your plant. The duct tape is strong and isn't going to come off if the bottle gets wet or if you need to rinse it or leave it outside. And usually the sharpie or the pen won't come off unless you've introduced rubbing alcohol or acetone to it. ....وسعت15

@valeniusthekatالعام الماضيJust an update for you Sheffield. A while ago I bought a stressed out Pink Dragon Alocasia and you had a vid with a homemade fertilizer of oats and tea. id="hidden6" class="buttons"> I made a little moderation and I'm using rainwater instead of tap water. I've been watering my Dragon with it and so far, it's doing well. I cut off the dying or crusty leaves, just leaving the healthiest leaf. It only has the one leaf, but it's still going good. Thank you for the recipe and I'll keep using it until it starts to grow new leaves ....وسعت11

@
@stephaniedagostinoالعام الماضيFor FUNGUS GNATS I swear by neem meal (sometimes called neem cake). You put the powder/pellets in warm water for several hours to make a “tea.” Then you water with it. Repeat for the next 3-4 waterings. It works!! I have tried EVERYTHING. This is the only thing that did it. Smells a little funny but worth it. You can also mix the dry meal into the potting mix when repotting plants. ....وسعت9

@dawnt6791العام الماضيI've got a small ponytail plant that's been struggling. Leaves are turning brown and dropping. It's been in the same pot it was in when I bought id="hidden28" class="buttons"> it a few years ago. They had put a layer of gravel siliconed over the whole soil surface, so I haven't been able to get a finger or the moisture meter into it to check moisture level. I finally decided this morning to pull it out and check the roots, per your recommendation for various plant issues. Since I haven't been able to check the moisture level in it, I give it very little water and only when I need to water my much larger ponytail (maybe once a month). Apparently even that was too much. When I removed the 1/2" thick layer of siliconed gravel, the soil was DRENCHED. Ack! No wonder the poor thing wasn't happy. The roots were small and skimpy, so it's not rootbound by any stretch. So I blended the existing soil with some new substrate (including water absorbing elements) and repotted it back into the same pot. Hopefully it'll bounce back. At least now I can actually check the moisture level! ....وسعت1
