Re: Help with Alocasia Macrorrhizos "Blck Stem"
Hey Chris, the plant will definitely do much better once it is outside. This being it gets good airflow and the moisture coming up to the undersurface of the leaf from the ground(the moisture does help to prevent the spidermites here). You will be surprised that once it has established outside, the leaves tend to get thicker. I have most of the known varieties of the Alocasia macrohiza and they are all grown outside under the hot tropical sun. In fact, I find that they do very much better like this with lesser watering. All the best.
