Care and Recover

Water: When the top 2cm of the soil feels dry.

Water your plant when the top 2cm of the soil feels dry to the touch. Ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Avoid overwatering or allowing the plant to sit in standing water.

Repotting: Every 1-2 years

As your Philodendron Micans grows, you may need to repot it to provide more space for its roots. Repotting is typically done every 1-2 years or when the current pot becomes too small. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and fill it with a well-draining potting mix. Carefully remove the plant from its current pot, gently loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot. Fill the remaining space with fresh soil, ensuring that the plant sits at the same depth as before. Water thoroughly after repotting.

Pruning: Every 6 months if needed

To maintain a neat and compact shape, you can prune your Philodendron Micans as needed. Trim off any yellowed or damaged leaves using clean, sharp pruning shears. You can also trim back leggy or overgrown stems to encourage bushier growth.

Fertilise: Every 2-4 weeks

Feed your Philodendron Micans with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer during the growing season (spring and summer) every 2-4 weeks. Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for proper dilution and application.

Cure (Sad Plant Signs)

  • Yellowing Leaves: Yellowing leaves may indicate overwatering, underwatering, or nutrient deficiencies. Adjust your watering routine and ensure proper drainage. Consider fertilizing if nutrient deficiencies are suspected.
  • Browning or Wilting Leaves: Browning or wilting leaves can be a sign of underwatering, excessive sunlight, or low humidity. Adjust your watering schedule, provide adequate shade, and increase humidity if needed.
  • Leaf Dropping: Dropping leaves can occur due to stress, changes in environmental conditions, or inadequate watering. Ensure consistent care and maintain a stable environment for your plant.
  • Pests: Look for signs of common houseplant pests such as mealybugs, spider mites, or aphids. Treat the infestation promptly using organic or chemical methods.

Propagation

Stem cuttings

Philodendron Micans can be propagated through stem cuttings. Select a healthy stem with at least two nodes and remove any lower leaves. Place the cutting in water or a well-draining soil mix, ensuring that the node is submerged or buried. Keep the cutting in a warm and humid environment until roots develop. Once rooted, you can transfer the cutting to a pot with potting soil.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I water my plants?

The watering frequency depends on the specific plant species and environmental conditions. As a general rule, it's best to allow the top 5cm of soil to dry out before watering again. Be mindful not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. Check the moisture level regularly and adjust watering accordingly.

What type of lighting do these plants require?

Different plants have varying light requirements. Most houseplants thrive in bright, indirect light. However, some plants may prefer direct sunlight, while others thrive in low-light conditions. It's important to research the specific lighting needs of each plant and place them accordingly in your home.

How often should I fertilize my plants?
