  • In today's video, we take a look at several cultivars of 'tender' Tradescantia (Wandering Jew) and discuss the possible issues leading to the browning of leaves or spots on their leaves. We then discuss a 'workaround' by RESTARTING A TRADESCANTIA WITH SPOTS ON ITS LEAVES, which is effectively pruning it right down - I show you how.
    We cover:
    -why tradescantia can get brown leaves or brown spots of their leaves
    -how humidity can affect some varieties of Tradescantia
    -how temperature can affect some varieties of Tradescantia
    -how ventilation and air movement can affect some varieties of Tradescantia
    -how over watering can affect some varieties of Tradescantia
    Plants shown are:
    -Tradescantia Tricolor Minima
    -Tradescantia Zebrina
    -Tradescantia Fluminensis Nanouk Lilac
    I hope you enjoy this video!

    Even tough plants have their little quirks. We have a zebrina growing on top of a unit in the middle of our kitchen and it is none the worse for the low light etc! In fact it needs cutting back it's so vigorous!

      Yeah same here with a Zebrina in a very dark bathroom. It doesn't seem to be affected adversely whatsoever. For succulent relatives they do better out of the sun!

    What a great video. I have learned so much in the last few days from you. I have been very bold and pinched my quad cuttings which were growing tall without many leaves in between.. so I’m trusting your judgement haha.
    I’d love if you could do a video on compost, best lighting in a house and watering requirements plus fertiliser for the different varieties of trads please? (Apologies if you’ve already done one, I’m working my way through all your videos) . 😊x

      I'd never heard of that one. But after some frustrating research, I think they are one and the same plant. There are soooooo many names for all the different hybrids of Tradescantia it soon becomes very confusing.🤷‍♂️

    Thank you Jeff. I’ve had my tri colored one outside on a table on my patio with numerous other plants I’ve had indoors for the winter. All of a sudden I’m seeing brown splotches on the leaves. I’m wondering if it’s getting too much indirect light? There is a roof on my patio, but no sides. Prior to this it was on a table behind a window. I’m taking it back inside for now as I fear it’s getting too much sunlight. Thank you for the video.

    • @Grow_Up_Man55
      @Grow_Up_Man55  Год назад

      I've heard that a sudden exposure to more light can cause issues - but haven't experienced it. I would imagine any plant might need a bit of a 'hardening off' period when going from indoors to outdoors so it's worth a try doing it gradually.

  • @terrapurvis6541
    @terrapurvis6541 Год назад

    That is a VERY interesting theory on why they turn brown like this 🤔 my flumenesis is doing this and it’s driving me nuts. I’m thinking of buying a long planter box and placing it across so it can grow horizontally based on what you said. What do you think of that?

    • @Grow_Up_Man55
      @Grow_Up_Man55  Год назад

      I wish I could remember what my theory actually was?! 🤣 But yeah definitely - many Trads are scrambling plants rather than climbing or trailing plants. I've grown one in a grow bag horizontally - then hung it vertically - was free of brown leaves for nearly 3 years. You can see it here: ruclips.net/video/O2IwlfoatcY/видео.html
