Good morning & Happy Wednesday!

On todays menu for #brunchataudreys :

A little plant spotlight for my Alocasia which has been w me since practically the beginning! She recently had a bit of a spider mite issue but we quickly handled that & she’s happier than ever 🌱

Next up we have the classy, cute Marble Queen Pothos - She’s finally looking a bit more full after her much needed chop πŸ’‡β€β™€οΈ over the summer!

Ahhhh.. corms… my first 2 successful (thus far)! They’ve begun sprouting and rooting this past week & it’s been such a pleasure to see since I’ve not had success in the past!

That’s all for now, & as @SweetAzurebluet always says: Have a great day on purpose!!

@grateful_68 Good Morning! 🌞 Your β€œPotho” is looking gorgeous, love the vibrant color. Sorry to hear about your 🐍 plant. Could you might be overwatering it? Have a great Wednesday on purpose!
@Prentyce Thanks much, it’s so amazing, how many of my plants has shown growth even in the cold months! I am so excited to see her blooms! πŸ˜ƒ
@SweetAzurebluet isn’t it awesome though?! Just goes to show, the more you care & attend to your plants.. the better they respond! And say heck it to the seasons 🀩✨🌱 you’re amazing!!πŸ₯ΉπŸ₯³
@grateful_68 oh okay, here another suggestion, too much direct sunlight?
@Prentyce indeed! πŸ˜ƒ
Hello ladies beautiful pothos . As @SweetAzurebluet would say have a great day on purpose ! Sorry I stole that just love your energy 🌞
How do you keep your alo so happy?
@SweetAzurebluet seriously my tradescantia is just being lazy now. Congrats on your bloom 🌸. Stay warm. Brr.
@grateful_68 it’s chilly here in Austin to but I think you have it worse. Stay warm.
@ILoveMyPlants no problem, my dear, it’s a universal saying, always all ways have purpose in life! πŸ˜‰πŸ₯°
@PrizedShadscale Thanks much, β€œ Athena” really surprised me! Don’t give up on your β€œTradescantia”, I feel blooms are coming soon!οΏΌ
@SweetAzurebluet morning Harriet. I should probably do a better job of fertilizing it and it may come. β˜ΊοΈπŸŒΈπŸ€¦πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ
@PrizedShadscale what fertilizer do you use?
@SweetAzurebluet for my tradescantia… none. 🫣😞 I use big leaf energy on most of them. My orchid fertilizer on the things with blooms but I’m guilty on not doing that enough too.
@SweetAzurebluet @SweetAzurebluet I just picked up silica like Audrey suggested and I have some hydroponic fertilizers as well. But I’m hoping to get my fertilizer game up to par.
@PrizedShadscale I just use WTW fertilizer for all my plants. I will be buying Happy Frog soil, which a lot of the members recommend and use
@SweetAzurebluet I love happy frog Ocean Forest soil. I think that’s how I get along so well without fertilizer for so long. ☺️
@StarryKentia thank you!!
@PoisedAlbo Alocasia Odora / Night scented lily!
@PrizedShadscale hahaha I wouldn’t say β€œSo happy” as she’s definitely been missing the sunlight and outdoor heat! However, I will say when I changed to fox farms soil which included mosquito bits and worm castings & perlite & she has just blossomed from there!!

I did about a 50% ratio of each!
@elisenavidad hmm good to know. I’ll increase my perlite ratio. I’m trying pumice lately in place of perlite.
@PrizedShadscale ohhhh I’d be S O curious to know how that goes!!! I’m not gonna lie I’ve wondered many times why pumice isn’t utilized with plants more so plz let me know how that goes!!!
@elisenavidad a guy at the nursery had encouraged me to try it. He says it doesn’t end up floating like perlite. And I’ve noticed it has less dust.
@PrizedShadscale honestly, I give most of the credit to the worm castings in the fox farms soil!!! I’ve used worm castings more consistently for the last 7-8 months or so and I’ve noticed an immense difference and improvement since incorporating them!
@elisenavidad he said he had 3500 plants in his greenhouse
@PrizedShadscale hmmm… I’m even more intrigued now. Did he happen to recommend getting it from anywhere in specific?
@PrizedShadscale holy crap that’s insane
@elisenavidad I like all the things in the soil. It’s worth the money in my opinion.
@PrizedShadscale I would completely agree! They’re definitely a great company for sure.
@elisenavidad he did not. I bought the one at the nursery but found cheaper online horticultural pumice.
@PrizedShadscale shoooooot good to know!!! Thank YOU!
@elisenavidad of course!! I’ve added it to a few plants but we shall see how it goes.
@Prentyce thank you so much! & haha that climber has been moved from plant… to plant to plant and finally I just told myself I wasn’t moving it again so it just stayed in the pothos. Idk how well it’s working but that thing is soooo damn heavy I have to be careful which plants I use it on!! It’s tipped over a full pot of soil so many times πŸ˜‚

But thank you!! && yeah.. Western WA humidity is no joke πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
@elisenavidad perlite is def cheaper.
@SweetAzurebluet thank you! It’s a plain ol’ Alocasia Odora!! So called Night Scented Lily but ehhh I like β€œOdora” better πŸ˜‚

& ahhh I appreciate you! I hope you had the best day on purpose, I did !! 🀍🀍
@PrizedShadscale idc about the price if it means my plants are happy πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ but pumice for real seems really great
@grateful_68 oh wow!! Your Pothos is beautiful!! 🀩

&& shoot, what’s going on w the snake plant!? When did that start!?
Your welcome!
