Send help - having yellow leaves and nightmares
So, I’ve been meaning to post about this for awhile but have avoided it. But last night I had a dream all my plants in the bay window turned yellow and I’m sure it’s because I’m hanging on to the anxiety of these two having issues.
Miley (Swiss cheese vine) and Clairy (monstera) are both just having some ~struggles.~ What do you say, #GregGang - humidity issue? Are they separate issues since the leaves are doing different things?
I check with a moisture meter when Greg says it’s time to water. I water when it’s at 30% throughout. There is drainage on these pots. I use tap water that has been sitting for a couple of days. Clairy has been somewhat recently repotted because I thought the other pot was causing issues with not drying out evenly, but the yellowing has gotten worse. When I repotted I used tropical soil with added perlite and orchid bark. I didn’t pot Miley, Jungle House (store) did, and I’m sure they probably used tropical soil and they topped with leca.

Do not put your Ariel roots in water @kaleena. I did so after someone on Greg suggested it for faster growth and got root rot. It was actually on the root that I put in water. Hope mine recovers. Good luck
@Nallon those are easy enough things to try! I also worry about them getting cold next to the window in Kansas winter weather.
@simplepleasure sounds good! I think 30% or less throughout is considered dry but I can def wait until it goes down a little future. I would def snooze if it’s 30% or over.
@SuaveDeerfern which one? The monstera was just re-potted and is in new soil. I think I’ve only watered it once since. Probably every 10-14 days? The church window I have consideeed taking out and looking at the roots since I wasn’t the one that potted it.
@Teapott73 help me out friend - where do you see aerial roots?
@RJG where you at fam?
