Droop there it is πŸ₯€

Repotted my alo on the 7th and it’s been doing well. I watered on the 15th and made sure the pot/soil drained well before putting it back under my grow lights. I also turn a humidifier on once a day. Today the larger leaf is drooping. Any thoughts? Did i do or not do something? Is Cornelius just being finicky? Does he need support? Am i a fussy plant mom? 😬 #AlocasiaAddicts #Alocasia

I have the same plant and I have found this plant does not need watered as often as this app calls for. I strongly suggest a purchase of a water meter. I found out plants that were too overwatered and some not enough water.. just a suggestion. Enjoy your plant journey. You got this.. 😏
Well, knowing plants my first guess is he’s being finicky because succulents can be very dramatic and aren’t afraid to give you the finger. If anything I would say the humidifier is potentially overkill with an aloe. And you could also do a (lot less since Greg,) but pick up the pot , hold it at eye level and bowl β€œNUST TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT FROM ME!!!! Mommy loves you, PLEASE DON’T DIE!!! All are both valid and viable options…
@PoniesAndPlants ok! Thanks! I removed it from the humidifier area. I’ll keep that in mind!
@CourtlyKingfern thank you! I’ll check out the water meters right now.
@tinybatfists hope it helps!
@PoniesAndPlants This is an Alocasia not an aloe πŸ˜„ @tinybatfists IMO keep the humidifier
Like your plants
@GentleQuince @PoniesAndPlants I know. I was shortening the name πŸ˜…
@tinybatfists ohhhhh. I was responding to an aloe
