Apparently these 2 exotics agree. Both are looking kinda light and I am seeking guidance and wisdom from the experts on what to do. 

Lytocaryum Weddelanium was recently repotted after literally splitting through its 4" liner. You can see it's earlier darker foliage in the back and I kinda let spindle and cycad foliage hang in there to show it's kinda neonish.

C. Renda, I have no idea how this thing is still alive but it is. Anyway

I have added the new overhead light, I think that played a role. With the AC being broken the temperatures in here have gone from high 70s to.... Well let's just say I have gone outside to cool off recently. It's hot, it's humid, I have to leave the window open with a box fan blowing out or I roast in here. Sancho won't sleep in here anymore either. 

I put both in the shower and blasted them. They did feel dusty but tbh every surface in this room feels dusty - all summer it's been super humid but no rain. I ain't passing the white glove test anywhere in this room. 

 

Thoughts? Can I add something? Take them outside and spray chelated iron? Mix up my Stink Water? (Fish/kelp/chelated iron) I am brewing willow water? I've given everything in this room some Osmocote in the last month or so. I mist nightly before I go to bed. Humidity is not the issue for sure. 

How do I darken these guys back up?
