Thanks - very informative and I liked your explanations as to why you do certain things.

Great video, to the point and you let me know that the plant I got for Christmas was a Spanish Moss, thank you!

Excellent guide thanks for doing this. Personally I'm an everyday mister. I have a large pump mister that gets the job done easily.

Hello again! I need your advice. what can dark brown spots on leaves mean? I think it could be from too much water?

Do air plants move on their own? I just got one the other day not knowing anything about it and I put it in the pot next to my aloe which is in soil and sand. I didn't pot it I just sat it in there and I swear it dug itself into the sand and it looks like it moved closer to the aloe plant. I am so weirded out by this plant.

These are dark brown small spots in the middle of the leaf.

I bought my giant air plant (Tillandsia fasciculata) when it had a stem and a pup at the top. I hung it on my window using the pup as a sort of "hook" for the past few months. I thought I only needed to water it once a month, since that's what most online research told me. I haven't been able to find any photos online of any air plant similar to mine. It's got about a foot and a half long firm, green stem shooting straight out of the base of the mother plant, and a pup growing at the top. Lately the mother plant on the bottom has been dying, and I've only started watering it enough now that I did some more research. Is there any advice anyone could give me ? I'm so lost and can't find anything online even REMOTELY similar-looking to the air plant I have. Thanks!!
