If your Alocasia is suffering from root rot, here’s how I’m attempting to save mine 🪴 STEP 1 – Remove the plant If the stem feels loose, wobbly or mushy at the base, carefully remove the plant from its pot so you can inspect the damage. STEP 2 – Find the root growth points Look closely around the bottom of the stem for small bumps. These are potential points where new roots can emerge, so it’s important to preserve them. STEP 3 – Remove the rot Using a clean, sharp blade, cut away the mushy, rotten base. Remove all the affected tissue, but be careful not to cut too high and remove the healthy root growth points. STEP 4 – Let it callous Leave the cut surface to dry and callous for around 24–48 hours. You want the cut to dry out and form a protective layer before placing it into your growing medium. STEP 5 – Go corm hunting! This step is optional, but always worth checking your old soil for corms. I managed to find NINE! Hopefully, that’s nine more potential Alocasias to grow. STEP 6 – Prepare your new setup Once the cut has calloused, find a clear jar and fill it around halfway with a lava rock mix or LECA. STEP 7 – Position your plant Carefully place the Alocasia into the jar and add more growing medium around it to support and stabilise the plant. STEP 8 – Add some water Give the medium a good watering and leave a small water reservoir at the bottom of the jar. Make sure the cut base of the plant isn’t sitting directly in the water, as we don’t want to encourage more rot! STEP 9 – Find the perfect spot Place it somewhere with bright, indirect light, warmth and high humidity. Keep an eye on the moisture levels and give it time to hopefully develop a new root system. Now it’s a waiting game! Hopefully, with a little patience, we can get this Alocasia Polly back to full health. 🤞 Have you ever managed to save an Alocasia after losing all its roots? I’d love to hear how you did it! #alocasiapolly #plantcare #plantcaretips #plantsoftiktokplants #plants

El trébol morado (Oxalis triangularis) es una planta de interior muy popular por sus hojas en forma de mariposa. Requiere mucha luz indirecta, riego moderado solo cuando el sustrato se seca por completo para el siguiente riego. Reacción natural: Es completamente normal que sus hojas se cierren por la noche o en días nublados y se abran con la luz. Si notas que los tallos se estiran demasiado, suele ser señal de que necesita más iluminació. #oxalistriangularis #oxalis #trebol #plantcare #plants
