Mushrooms have moved in with my AV


Question
Hello Kristina!
I am a new AV lover and am having some issues with a mushroom infestation. It did not start until after I repotted her. I took her out of one of those The Violet Pot pots and have been having problems ever since. I am afraid I am not so good with watering her. Is she too wet?
I appreciate your help...I love my purple baby and don't want to kill her.
Thanks-Melissa  

Answer
I have had the same problem in the past.  Mushrooms are a fungus so you need to go to your local greenhouse and ask them for a fungiside.  Tell them you are using it on a AV and they should be able to direct you to what you need.  I use commercial products so I can't give you a name of something I use.

Remember to pot the violet 1/3 the size of the plant add perlite to the soil mix so it gets enough air to the roots.  And most of all enjoy!

Happy Growing
Kristina
