#HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #AirPlant @Ponytailmom I Am desperate for help so Iโ€™m providing a picture of my air plants and their light . They grow plenty of new leaves but never any babies. I fertilize every other watering with orchid fertilizer finding its better for growing than the airplant fertilizer. Please correct me if wrong . I water every six days in summer and eight to nine in winter. Why why why am I not producing babies ๐Ÿ‘ถ

Let me know if you find out anything because Iโ€™m curious,
possibly you could use a liquid bloom foliar feed ๏ฟผagain I have no idea about air plants but sounds like something I would try
Well, I have really no experience with air plants, but scientifically, drought conditions, force flower because itโ€™s their last dying move to create life.
Hi moisture and humidity conditions means thereโ€™s plenty of life around so it just grows new growth ๏ฟผ
@OhGollyItsJolly So sorry it took so long to respond but Greg kept crashing on me . Air plants need just enough light to not burn them leaves . The bloom cycle comes from the bright light not like the normal for others . Iโ€™m thinking it takes a a couple years too bloom and that only happens once in their lives . Iโ€™m finally getting some green growing from bottom and as you said fertilizer is the key in growing season. Iโ€™ve been using worm castings from We The Wild and a drop or two of Super Thrive this year and walla patients is the key. I thank you for your response. Theyโ€™re very easy to take care of with morning sun and and weekly soaking . Oh Iโ€™ve also been using Orchid fertilizer in a spray bottle in between watering. Hereโ€™s a picture of what Iโ€™m assuming is babies. At least thatโ€™s what chat bot has informed me . Great app itโ€™s never let me down with amazing answers on everything under the sun ๐Ÿ‘€ I donโ€™t care for AI but itโ€™s here too stay . And now Iโ€™m wondering how long our phones ,Amazon and smart tvs have been spying on us . Scary . The pictures are of my Medusa heads Iโ€™m excited
@ILoveMyPlants I love everything that you just said, but Iโ€™m gonna jump to the bottom immediately because itโ€™s very serious. If you did not know a portable phone was never intended to be for communication. It was created as a tracking device. A lot of things smart. Donโ€™t even need to be turned on to still be functionable because they are connected to Bluetooth Bluetooth devices try to connect to each other and weโ€™ll tell each other. Oh why are you turned off? Just checking to see if youโ€™re still here. That is the electronic devices communicating with one another that we have no idea thatโ€™s really going on, but it does. Thereโ€™s options that you can actually turn off on your phone that stops a lot of this, but all of it is not turned offable.
I hate technology. I am such an old soul stuck in a middle-aged body that is from the old world.
why do we need 10 different email addresses & five different passwords with three different verifications to get into the same thing that we donโ€™t even check. lol growls not at you just it. ๏ฟผ๏ฟผ
lol as for the air plant. Thereโ€™s one specifically on the Walmart website that I have been eyeballing and it looks like a jellyfish. Iโ€™ve lived on the Crystal Coast my entire life, and I was basically raised in saltwater. I feel like if I was to have one it would have to be this one. Looks so awesome to me!๏ฟผ๏ฟผ๏ฟผ
And wow talk about excitement b4 experience kicks inโ€ฆ almost got had.
Let me explain that plant there is a regular plain ol air plant with the skeleton of a sea urchin ๏ฟผlol
Hope I gave you a cool idea for the air plant anyways. We do shell stuff too lol ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿฝ
@OhGollyItsJolly I hate when they dye them . Love the holder for it itโ€™s the same plant as my two with babies just a bit thinner and curly. Youโ€™d better get it before theyโ€™re sold out . I personally wonโ€™t buy from bubble and blooms always end up losing the plant. There is a shop on Etsy and Amazon Iโ€™ve been using called they just sell air plants . I think the name is Airizer but could be off in spelling ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ They guarantee them for 30 days . But she probably buys them wholesale so youโ€™re probably safe . Ugg AI So glad you saw my response I felt like a ๐Ÿ’ฉ I got no patience for this app when it keeps freezing.
@ILoveMyPlants I donโ€™t mind the messages being a little slower โ€œlike me ๐Ÿ˜‚โ€ because I canโ€™t tend to a phone all day. Iโ€™m all over the place. Plants, animals chickens, cats ๏ฟผ other animals chasing the above lol. Always nice to have something to come back to when you get a chance to sit down you know. The sea urchins in the above picture were alive and are not dyed. ๏ฟผ๏ฟผ And if you have a big air plant, a certain type of sand dollar would be a beautiful specimen for like a jellyfish head. Crazy looking extremely thick sand dollar right? the only one I have ever found like this. 45 living at the Crystal coast iโ€™d be scared to use it and break it. Maybe theyโ€™re common and you can find them for a couple dollars online. I have no idea but this one is special so itโ€™s kept on a shelf for display
