Air Plant Care
LIGHT: Air Plants like bright light, so place them within three foot of a window, or give them grow lights.
WATER: This
depends on the type of air plant you have, but a good rule is, the thinner the leaf, the more water it will require. If the
humidity is good in the location where you have the air plant, then a misting every couple of days, and a hour soak every two weeks
should be plenty. If an air plant isn't getting enough water its leaves will curl. Morning watering with non-chlorinated
water is best. Shake off excess water and give good air circulation so plant is dry within four hours.

FERTILIZING: Fertilize once a month with 1/4 strength Orchid food. This can be done with the bi-weekly soak.
TEMPERATURE:
Air plants prefer temperatures between 50-90 degrees. Keep plants away from heating and cooling sources.
