How to fertilize Kangaroo Pocket
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Kangaroo Pocket after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Get it in good health? I just picked this Dischidia Apple up. I haven't owned a plant in a good few years. What's the first thing I should do? Repot? Clean its leaves? It was in the throwaway bin, but it spoke to me when I walked by.

I have had this plant cutting for over a year and it really only ever rooted. In the last few months I moved it near a humidifier and it started to grow, as in produce new foliage. Then, today I noticed the tiniest flowers! They are so tiny yet so fragrant! #MillionHearts #DischidiaRuscifolia #TinyLeafPlants #TinyFlowers #itrunsinthefamily #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #PLANTMAFIA

How to revive this dischidia watermelon I've been struggling with this baby since I adopted her about a month ago, lost nearly all leaves many had turned yellow. I've increased lighting and tried stabilizing watering and fertilizing. I can't find yellow leaves and it seems to be doing better with a grow light but I can still see these dried and brown stems. Anything else I can do? #WatermelonDischidia

New to app Hi Greg community! I am brand new to the app, but not to plants. Before I deep dive and add all my plants to this app, I have a question about the watering. No matter what size container or when I watered last, all the plants I have added so far have an upcoming watering “in five days.” I am wondering if that will adjust based on the plant needs or is it a generic once a week water requirement. I am still searching for a plant app that works for me. I love the community part of this app but I also like to have each plant requirements listed. Tell me what you love about Greg that makes it better than other apps. I added a picture of my daughter’s Watermelon plant Flora that I keep teasing her I am going to steal. I have my own but hers is gorgeous. Pic just for interest. Thanks!
