I want to give a big shoutout and some flowers πŸ’ to @danisgreenhouse for the tip on fertilizer for my struggling baby pictum tricolor Aglaonema last week! You were *exactly right*!!! I went and got some all-purpose fertilizer (not a whole lot of choices on short notice locally but I will order what you recommended online!) and by then, the third to last leaf was fully yellow 😭 I quickly read the instructions and did the damn thing, and crossed my fingers… I’ve been holding my breath, afraid to relax worried as soon as I do, I’ll start seeing that garish yellow again, but I think it’s done the trick! You’re a genius! I’m so so so grateful to you and so happy and grateful to have this wonderful community of plant angels πŸ˜‡πŸŒΏβ™₯️πŸ₯Ή Seriously, thank you so much. Here it is with its two beautiful, happy leaves! And I’m sure more will come soon πŸ€—πŸŒΏ 1st picture is tonight, a few days post-fertilization! The others are last week when it was in decline and I was freaking out! #CrisisAverted #GregGang #Greggers #Aglaonema #AglaonemaAddicts fertilizer">#fertilizer #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #babevila

@BabeVila Yey! He does look beautiful today! 😍 I havnt fertilized my plants in a little while. Maybe I will try it this weekend. They probably all could use a little.
@BabeVila So glad to hear it’s doing much better! Glad I could help! Feel free to use up what you bought before getting new stuff too, I’m sure it’s perfectly fine. The ones I recommend are made to be used every watering so I don’t have to remind myself to fertilize lol
@BabeVila @danisgreenhouse ok- spill the beans on exactly what type of fertilizer to use.. for others to know too!πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ«£πŸ˜‰
@CourtlyKingfern Right now I’m using GT Foliage Focus stacked with a Root Fertilizer (plus the usual silica + water conditioner) I also recommend Super Thrive Foliage Pro, it’s similar to GT but a little cheaper since you use less per gallon.
@danisgreenhouse good deal, I use both the GT foliage & sometime super Thrive as well.
