Humidity High humidity (≥70%) mimics its rainforest habitat.

💧 Watering Tips

  • Water early in the day.

  • Use rainwater or filtered water if possible (less chlorine, more natural pH).

  • Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.


🌱 Fertilization

  • Use a balanced, organic fertilizer (like fish emulsion or compost tea) once every 4–6 weeks during the growing season.

  • Avoid heavy nitrogen — it can produce too much leafy growth and weaken roots.


✂️ Maintenance

  • Remove dead or yellowing leaves regularly.

  • Mulch with leaf litter or coconut husk to retain moisture.

  • Keep weeds away to reduce competition for nutrients.


🐛 Pests & Diseases

  • Generally hardy if kept in shade and moist soil.

  • Watch for mealybugs, aphids, or fungal spots if humidity is excessive.

  • Use mild neem oil spray or insecticidal soap
