I've had marginal success in the past with air plants, but going to try again. Typically I can grow anything.. I've read to put it in a porous pot with well draining soil and alternatively no soil...thanks for all tips #AirPlant

Airplant separation? My airplant has a baby that has gotten bigger to the point eventually, (here soon) I may want to try to separate it⦠what would be the best way to go about that? Itās pretty snug (well attached) to the mother airplant currently, so Iām kinda assuming itās not quite ready yet. As it gets bigger I would imagine itāll be easier to detach, when itās ready? Does anyone have any experience with this? And is there a better way to separate them? Like would I use my hands to wiggle it off? Or surgically remove it? š #AirPlant #airplants #PlantAddict #help #Question #division #GregGang
