3D leaf?
I took Jovie out to #ButtChug and found this new odd looking leaf growing. She looks like she’s clapping πŸ‘. Little hands growing right out of the leaf. Is this normal? #NewGrowth #oddity
2ft to light, indirect
4” pot with drainage
Last watered 20 hours ago
Omg that’s wild! Very cool looking
I shall name it Baby Groot
whoa
I think this plant is so cool, I recently rescued one. Have you got any tips as yours looks great?!
@dylan1stokes Thanks, but it’s the first one I’ve had that I didn’t kill lol. The best advice I could give is to use a moisture meter to see when it needs watering. I don’t let it get totally dry like my succulents, but I wait until it’s at about a 2.
@Hypsie thank you, i will maybe have to look into buying a moisture metre
@dylan1stokes You can also break of a few leaves and just stick them back into the soil to make it fuller. It takes a little while, but they will eventually root. I have mine under a grow light.
@dylan1stokes Best $10 I ever spent. You may even find one for less. Takes out a lot of the guess work. Until I got one I was a lot more nervous 😬!

@Hypsie I did actually break some off and just put it straight back into the soil, or you meant to let them callus first tho because I didn’t. Also I am planning to get a grow light as soon as I can excuse spending them money haha
@Hypsie also thank you for this I am going to have a look now
@dylan1stokes I didn’t let mine callous over either. And you can get just a grow bulb if you can find a lamp. You’re welcome!
@Hypsie okay that makes me feel better, and I actually have a spare lamp I don’t use, could I just put a grow bulb in it
I bought 2 tiny ones and put them in a bigger pot with drainage… doing great so far!!!
@dylan1stokes Yes, absolutely!
@tango That’s plantastic!
Does anyone have a good suggestion for a plant light and one I don’t have to take a loan out for it?
@Grammy08 I think the least expensive option is a grow bulb in a regular light fixture.

The one I have is below. It keeps going up in price. But they have an option for used.

@Grammy08 I just ordered this bulb. Supposed to be a good one. It’s in lightening deal rn.
