Sophronitis riograndensis struggling
1 Attachment(s)
Hello everyone!
So it's about acclimatising mostly. I have bought this S. riograndensis about 6 month ago, since then it dried out slowly 4 new growth it came with, then dried out almost all the leaves one by one and actually some bulbs. Now I am almost sure it's its last month. The green bulbs are firm, no real rot signs (and I assume it would die much quicker). My temp are about 25C day, 20C night, humidity 70-85% (the joy of living on the island), and just the next pot with it a Sophronitis brevipendiculata from the same vendor is going just fine, have matured 3 growth and starting 2 new. Any thoughts? Or may be it's already to be buried in the garden to stop its suffering? Thank you! |
Is it indoors or out?

The moss seems too dry.
How do you water it? Frequency and what type of water (distilled, tap water, well water?) I also think it would benefit from lower temps at night. And what light intensity are you giving it, |

As for the light, its under the led light 12 hours (at ca. 90 umol/m2/s) but also it receives indirect sunlight in summer during the day (ca. 140) and this season it has 2-3 hours of filtered direct sunlight (because of season change). |

It depends on the type of leds, I think, but anything under 1000 fc is certainly not enough. Let the lighting experts give their input. How far is the plant from the light source? |
The number I quoted are the actual measurements from the leaves level. I will check them later tomorrow again.
UPD so we have around 1300 fc for 5 hours and 12 hours of 250 |
