Re: Potting Soil for Florida Variegated

Yes, potting soil that has fertilizer in it is fine., but don't give them any extra fertilizer until they grow up.

Re: Dwarf Cavendish Brown and Yellow Spots

It’s just angry for repotting, it has to allocate its resources to its roots and not to the leaves until the roots are more strongly established. Usually after repotting the plant requires less...
