Propagating Alocasia Corms #shorts #plantcare #plants #alocasia #houseplant #houseplantcare
What’s your favourite way to propagate them? I love Alocasias because they’re the plants that keep on giving! If you accidentally kill the plant, always check to see if it has corms. Here are how you can propagate them: ✨Shallow water method - using a shallow dish, add water and place corms in it. Add a dome for added humidity and place in a bright warm area. ✨Perlite and water method - add wet perlite and place corms in perlite. Add water to just below the corms. Add a dome for added humidity and place in a bright warm area. ✨Semi-hydroponic - you can use LECA, Pon or Stratum. Place corms in the substrate of choice and add water until just below the corms. Add a dome for added humidity and place in a bright warm area. ✨Moist Sphagnum Moss - pre soak sphagnum moss and squeeze out any excess water (you don’t want it too wet). Place corms in the moss and add a dome for added humidity and place in a bright warm area. ✨Soil - use a mixture that has water retention properties to assure the corm has enough water to grow roots. It can include coco coir, perlite and or sphagnum moss. Place corms in mixture and keep soil evenly moist. Add a dome for added humidity and place in a bright warm area.
