violet grow well in my home (in door) but not 岩桐. think half day sunlight next to the window should be okay for 岩桐 but actually not. so not sure how to grow 岩桐 well!
If AV grows well there. Most likely 岩桐 (gloxinia) won't. Gloxinia need more light, enjoy more heat (< 32C) and easily go into domancy during winter. Because is tuberous, must be careful will watering. That is what kills the most gloxinia. It is best to let the media/soil almost completely dry before watering again.
Try adjust your media/soil mix until it completely dry up in 3 days. By adding more perlite into the potting mix. I now use 靚土:珍珠石 (perlite) 1:1 . I do not use vermiculite anymore as it is very hard to control. Since the media is very airy, i can use water tray with standing water without much problem.
Maybe if you could take a photo of your problematic gloxinia and we can work out what you can try. |
