    Hi! Love the way how you’re not giving up on this plant👍🏻
    Just a quick suggestion, do try fluval stratum/aqua soil or sphagnum+perlite for rooting. It’s better to transfer to semi hydro after the plant has developed few good roots.
    Nevertheless I’ll be interested to see if pon works for rooting.

      Yes didn’t really think about that 🙈 I was in such an emergency...but yes could have done sphagnum + perlite for rooting...let's hope the plant develops roots in PON...will be an experiment...the lead has started going yellow though 😕

    Your BV maybe be struggling due to lower humidity? You could also make your substrate a LOT more chunkier.

      Humidity is fine cos it's in the Greenhouse Cabinet...mix - yes, probably that can be an issue...will research a bit on that 🙌🏻

      I agree with galfarrero! You'll need to use a much chunkier mix indoors and especially in a closed setup. Avoid cocopeat completely indoors.
      I'll send you some of my aroid mix to try. See if that works for you! I'd love some feedback too. :)

      @@HouseOfMerak ohh got it...I'll try a chunkier mix...the one I had was the most chunkier one I could find but I often find it drying up way too soon...thanks for the cocopeat tip 👌🏻 would love to try your aroid mix 🙌🏻 would be great to test and see the changes 🌿🪴

    This Alocasia looks more like a Maharani (aka Grey Dragon) to me than a Black Velvet. Am I crazy? I'm not an expert on Alocasia.

      Heheh yeah looks a bit dull here cos it was about to lose the leaf...but yeah it's definitely a black velvet 😬
