The Sun is in itself not a problem. How do you light the Alocasia? If you them leafless on the terrace you will have no problem at all (by the"water" to the pour apart). Should you spend the winter the plant with leaves are the mature leaves burn you already after lower sunshine duration, what I can tell from bitter experience. The leaves are burned itself in the shadow of the tree I, the new but are much more stable in the Sun and get the typical habit... Except when you light in the winter garden or greenhouse. Instead they most definitely in a great trivet stands in the beginning always water. As soon as new leaves grow vigorously fertilize. Warm greeting Matthias

What is it for an Alocasia?

So an Evergreen, that by cultivating...
I haven't even, but what I have, read two houseplant forums where I just express myself around, just to experience reports
I would not recommend full sun out Yes, but then in the shade under a tree for example and maybe slowly in more Sun get WAAAAY...
read here by a plant that after two days of Spring Sun completely entered rigendwie ist...ist but a tropischr jungle residents...

i currently grow A.portodora,robodora,jacks giant, colocasia thai giant.i have large raised flower beds with heavy amending
of compost, peat, coco coir..they get planted right out in the beds..they get nearly full sun..they do well..i do keep them fairly well
watered..one thing i know i need to do better at is fertilization..one year i did fertilize heavy and all my Eee grew to monsters!!
hopefully this year i will remember to do same again..lol
i think reason my Eee do well in full sun is i get them use to being out in more sun.. now they've been outside (still in pots) and brought in
at night..but if night temps hold in high 50sF..i will plant out..
hope you are successful.. let us know..good luck!!!!

So, the Colocasia e. well can withstand the Sun if it has enough water is not uncommon...It is already for a long time a culture and food crops, if you look at the swampy plantations in Hawaii, then they have there absolutely strong sunlight...
The Guttation, so worry you need not make really you...As long as it is just water and not sticky secretions from pests. Plants water evaporate continuously over the leaves, leaving the Wasserklreislauf in the plant in motion, if the humidity is very high, it comes to the Guttation, because evaporation is no longer so works...And I find very many Arum family likes tend to the Guttation.
But also plants, that shortly after the casting so there too much water so again... want to get rid of
Keep so perhaps first a bit drier and more airing?
To the ticket master, since I know but little, or by reading in the INET (only different Colocasia e. variants), I've read yet how you can speed up the formation, think this is a phenomenon that just comes with the age of the plant...
