Hi! These guys are super easy! Bright, indirect sunlight, humidity (as long as you donβt get any moisture in the center crown, you can mist it, but itβs safer to just use a small humidifier), and dunk in distilled water once a week, and then let it air-dry upside down on a paper towel. The most important thing is never to let water sit in the middle part or it will rot. That holder is really cute! Hope this helps, but lmk if you have any questions πΏπ€
Air plants don't need soil. I soak mine once a week in distilled water or you can use rainwater. Some people just mist them. I soak them for a hour then I turn them upside down on a paper towel. Sometimes I leave them to dry for an hour or two Sometimes all night but you have to make sure they are completely dry. I had one rot and die one time cuz he didn't get all the way dry. Most of mine sit within feet of my grow lights. They need good lighting. You could put it in a window.
I soak mine once a week and let dry upside down for a day or so. I love the holder! Mine was a clearance plant. I wish this app would know itβs an air plant and not ask what size pot, what type of soil, and give watering directions that are wrong. I see no way of telling the app to correct it.
