What’s up with Morticia?
My darling little #airplant is crisping up and I don’t get it. She’s misted every day and soaked for over half an hour, once a week. RO water only. I’ve had her at least three months.
I have two other tillys that I treat the same way and they’re thriving. So what gives?!

Has she flowered? Air plants eventually die after blooming. It is the beginning of old age.
Are those lower leaves damp, mushy, or soft? Then it’s likely to be overwatering.
Do you turn it upside down to thoroughly drain it after watering?
You may be misting it too much. You never want water staying on the plant. I found I didn’t need to spray. A good weekly soak was plenty.

Could she be exhausting those older leaves to push out new ones? Apart from the crispyness at the bottom, your baby seems to be thriving! 🙌🏽
I had to recently remove a few of the leaves from mine (bottom leaves) because it’s actually growing rather fast lol
Mine are funny actually. I used to do a weekly dunk and they were okay, but not happy. I started misting twice a week and now they’re thriving. Maybe yours are not liking the daily misting? 🤔
