Can we just have an open conversation about the emotional whiplash of situations like these 😫😫😫

Well hello there new friend 🥹

This Pink Nobilis arrived completely melted from transit, but the rhizome was still firm, so I plopped it in fluval/perlite on 1.31.26 and hoped for the best.

It gave me a new leaf about a month and a half ago, but it was very sad and not looking the best.

As soon as I put this corm cup cover on it from it started sprouting another new leaf!

I haven’t checked on it in a couple weeks, so it was the best surprise when I went to water this afternoon and saw this beaut 😍

Proof that plants aren’t meant to be in clear cups with their roots getting blasted with light.

These babies want to be in the closest thing to their natural environment as possible, and that means making sure their roots at least THINK they’re in soil, even if it’s just tricking them with a cover cup or pot 😜

Cabinet got a refresh today with a couple new half shelves with ventilation holes in them 🤘🏼 now my taller plants that were squished under a shelf have room to stretch!

Also put my Anthurium Crystallinum in here (the best I could anyways 🤪) to see if it’ll be happier in here vs in my office. He’s looking a little sad.

All soil has some cinnamon sprinkled on top too to hopefully get rid of these damn fungus gnats 🤬

Nothing in life prepared me for this.
Nothing.
If you would have told me 10 years ago that I’d be mouth breathing whilst staring at a cabinet full of beautiful Alocasia multiple times a day, I would have told you you were smoking something.
But here we are. And I blame it all on .roots 😂

Since I took these photos on March 6th, she’s already pushing out 3 more leaves 😭🥹 and she was just deflasked on January 31st. Insane.

POV: you finally stop losing your grow light remote

because there isn’t one 🤘🏼

Install the bulb. Set it. Move on with your life.

Be honest… how many remotes have you lost since you stepped in to the plant parent, pendant grow light world?

So apparently Alocasias are my whole identity now.

Pupdates from a small percentage of TCs that somehow landed on my doorstep over the course of the last couple months from .roots

You’d think I would have reported fraud to my bank account by now but
I fear I’m the one who stole and used my own card on these.

Anyway.

They’re alive.
I’m sus.
We’re operating on vibes and fluval/perlite.

If they ☠️, this post never existed.

Drop your most toxic plant in the comments so we can normalize self inflicted plant trauma.

This post might not hit the algo or my following well (insights don’t lie 🤪) but I don’t even care because I’m a bit shook at the moment.

I took these quick pics to show off my Regal Shields Aurea to a friend just now and 🤯 there’s PINK ON ITS NEWEST LEAF?! IS THIS NORMAL?!

I’m having trust issues at the moment. Please tell me if this is a thing on these 😅
