Yeah it's a tough one! Because it's winter now, my humidity has dropped significantly so I have to up the humidifier level and spray the new leaves more. 🤣 The things we do for our plants

Mine grows fine without having high humidity or a humidifier. It is grouped together with other plants, with humidity around 50%,

You mentioned this video in your Philodendron favorites video so I came to watch it. My Brandi is all wonky like yours was, maybe worse! It did have thrips a while back and I thought it was the origin of the thrips so it's been isolated ever since. However, no sign of thrips for a long while so I am going to move it to a more humid location in a bright bathroom and hope that helps! Thanks for your insight and you got a new subscriber!

This plant is really challenging and I still have challenges with it too 😂 I got another leaf with a hole because I was away and my humidifier ran out of water 😬. I usually have the water a 1/3 of the way up the pot. My watering schedule is usually changing the nutrients every 2 weeks. I don't "Top off" the reservoir with regular water anymore just because I don't have the time and I also stopped flushing the pots with water for the same reasons.

@kevin.
3 жыл бұрын
@@mandyvv4154 I honestly think that you can do either soil or LECA. I can't really give an opinion about it just because my plant was in soil for less than 2 months during the winter time before I switched it. I think humidity is the key thing to making it happy and perhaps a moss pole you can keep moist for ambient humidity.

But I am wondering how to proceed when she grows big.....(great hopes). I have small humidifier for other plants. but its challenging in a room as the humidity leaks through closet and air vents. any suggestion on that? what type humidifier and how long to use it? Please help. I am in Brampton, Canada.

Spraying your plant to increase humidity is a very controversial topic 😂😅. A lot of people recommend it while others don't. It's believed that if you spray your plant, the humidity only increases for a very short period of time and then drops. I only spray my plants when it looks like a leaf of getting stuck or foliar feeding. I feel that it's better than nothing especially if you don't have a humidifier. Are you able to maybe put the plant in a big container to increase humidity like a mini greenhouse? I'm currently doing this with my melanochrysum and shes a lot happier 😂😂

Hey! Do you have recommendations to root cuttings from the p. brandtianum? I put them in Water and 3/5 got some roots but after a while they started to rot. Changed water and put some H2O2 in and they were ok.. but normally I put plants into leca when they got some roots.. so I did.. the roots nearly died completly and there is some new root growth but less and is really is slow and doesn't look ideal.. I still have two cuttings with no roots yet. My first cutting I got last year rooted and grew in moss and still lives in it becaus I can't get it out anymore without destroying the rootsystem anymore. But I think it is a bad idea to chnage rooting medium again.. Please help :D I am so frustrated with those cuttings..
