Thanks Kelly! I'm liking your avatar! That's one way to have blooms haha! Sticking tongue out
I use different ones - I used to use Shultz liquid drops but then someone told me Monstanto bought them so now I began using SuperThrive (which I've used for transplanted or weak plants for several years) Only began using this last summer so don't know if it'll be enough to get them to bloom. Beginning last year I bring mine outdoors, which they love! So I do get an initial bloom just because of the greater amount of light they receive outside. (I keep them in a bright shaded/mixed shade area.
Again thanks for this thread, it has me thinking that I just keep these too dry when I move them indoors. Outdoors there is enough moisture in the air that they're fine but once I brought them inside they have been very dry! Going to soak them in the bathtub and then begin watering them more! I tip my hat to you.
