it even has a tutor

Yeah, people are just lazy. I remember when I invented a new login screen and was told it was “difficult”, “confusing” and “took some getting used to”.

It even came with a free 100-page manual and a 4-hour master class. Some people, I tell you!

^This is meant more as a joke than an actual critique, even if it kind of reflects my thoughts. But ultimatly, I thought it was a funny bit.^

Funnily enough, it’s my least troublesome plant.

I got it as a impulse purchase. But the novelty only lasted a few weeks, so I pretty much dismissed it and put it in the bathroom to get more space for plants I liked better. But it endured for a entire year, thanklessly and without a single complaint. No pests, no fertilizer issues, no water problems, no rot or anything. And then it put put it’s first flowers aswell.

This one really clawed it’s way back into my heart and I consider one of my favorite plants by now. It really earned it.

It’s currently in my bathroom, which is clean but still not very sighty. And I’m currently trying to kinda trellis it as it has become quite unwieldy and I can’t really move it much without risking it.

But I’m planning to relocate it after pruning next spring. As soon as the leaves have grown back, there will definitely be pictures! :D

It would help if you had some pictures of the leaves before they fell

At first they stay green (even the fallen ones). But as the tree keeps declining, some will turn brown along the edges, in an inverted v-shape, starting from the tip.

Temperature stress is something I’ll have to look into. Thank you!

I’m sorry, the “5:1:1 mix” was referring to 5 parts pine, 1 part perlite, 1 part humus / worm castings.

The ferilizer changes throughout the year. But it’s mostly 4-3-6, with some 5-1-4 in early spring, and some chelates, when I feel the plant needs them.

KÜHLSCHRANK

I had something similar with my monstera.

Personally, I aim for the biggest leaves I can. So I air-layered it at the newest node, and when I was sure it had enough roots (so it wouldn’t get shocked), I replanted it with a plank.

I really underestimated how much roots the plant needed, but it has since caught on, is throwing out nice new leaves and is climbing well.

I also made a few single node cuttings that I will probably have to give away at some point.

That seems to be it. Thank you!

The plant and substrate are fine, though. It’s a chunky 5-1-1 mix with a bit of kelp meal to help with drought stress. I have no fungus gnats or standing water. The little teracotta is skewer dry after 3-4 days. ^^

I’m actually pretty happy with the little 'shrooms showing up, as they indicate proper nutrient cycling.

*except what you initially set out to do and actually need to do.

I don’t see data backing up your claim […]

Links a list where the three top spots substantiate the claim, followed by a comparatively large 8% drop.

To add a bit of nuance: There are definitely exceptions to the claim. But if I had to make a blanket statement, it would absolutely be in favor of AMD.

Probably springtails. They are not harmful, but may indicate overwatering (unless the plant needs constantly wet soil). They eat fungi and float in water, which is cool.
