Yes part 2 please ❤❤❤💚💚💚

I‘ve been watching your videos for a few weeks now especially because of this one that I found through your comment on an older video of yours. But now I was watching another older video where you were praising hydrogen peroxide while rescuing a friend‘s plant, and there you didn’t refer to this video in the comments section. Does that mean you still find it great or is your opinion similar to what you said here on 2:30 ? 😅 I like your opinions and would love to know that before applying it onto my plants 🙏🏻

I do my paint by numbers which is my second mental health activity, (planty stuff being number one,) While listening and glancing at your plant shore videos ❤ Thought I would share . Love ALL of your videos

Hi! thank you for amazing information. I have a white wizard. I was treating it for thrips and by accident left it in a cold area. Now the white one the old leafs are all turning brown and it looks bad. But, it still grows and the new leafs are pretty. could i then cut it below where the ne leafs begin as long as there are nodes over the place i cut? And when should i plant the cutting into soil? I'm pretty new too this, and I learn so much from you videos! Thx in advance from a fan from Norway :)

Can you give some examples of the hydroponic fertilizers?

My spider plant has one stem of babies but they aren't getting any bigger. What can I do to help them mature so I can snip them off?

I killed two Queens and I bought one small seedling recently. I put it in pon as soon as I got it and it’s thriving in my bathroom. The humidity there is around 50%. I use silica and a liquid fertilizer to feed it. I hope that helps. I have couple plants that I am not giving up on.

I have an outdoor houseplant that is in terrible shape. Is it best to do several of these things and mix the water together? Or will doing one of these at a time still work..?

I love your dog ❤and all your videos 😀

Thank you so much for your videos, your house looks very peaceful with all the plants 🌱 🪴

I know I’m a little late, but I wanted to say it defiantly makes sense that he should care for his plants. I deal with a similar situation. My sister always wants me to take care of her plants daily. I’m happy to share what I know with her. I don’t think it’s fair for you to have to take complete care of his plants that he’s bringing home when you have so many of your own. Keep helping him by sharing knowledge or even have him go back and watch one of your videos for more information. Just my opinion but I hope this helps!

Thanks

My portadora is the same! I have to pest treat once a week also 😅

You can only understand low light if you have a light meter because even if an area looks bright to the human eye, its often not bright enough for plants. Measuring light doesn't have to be complex and scientific as a lot of people make out, just a basic light meter helps a lot and will give you an idea. I normally go by Lumens or LUX. Generally anything under 300 LUX a plant wont do well. 500 LUX then plants will be OK. Optimum lighting will be 1000 LUX is ideal and low light tolerant house plants will thrive. The best lights are LED because they don't use much current and I find are more brighter. Going with 6000k - 6500k color is best for plants and they don't have to be "grow lights" I use a different range of office and factory lighting, LED flood lights are brilliant because you can light up a large area with a decent amount of Lumens for lower light tolerant plants and wont cost you much to run them. I'd recommend always having a spare light on hand just encase. I don't get much light in my home so I have to run lighting during the day and all my plants are happy and thriving.

Regarding the portadora, there's a DIY mix that includes peppermint and tea tree soaps as those are meant to be repellant to spidermites, so if you haven't yet, perhaps give that a try. There are lots of different recipes, I use 1 cup of water with 1/2 tbsp tea tree castile soap, 1/2 tbsp peppermint castile soap, 2 tbsp 70% isopropyl and 1/2 tsp 3% peroxide. I also tend to add a drop of neem sometimes because I find it can shine the leaves up nicely. Fair warning, open a window and run a fan when you spray it as it can be a bit much.

Can just stick a stick into a pot instead of a moss pole if want to see how it takes to having a pole if what's it's missing is climbing. Moss poles are annoying to deal with, sticks are easier while providing support (tho can't do that self watering thing)

my philodendron pink pincress is just my biggest pain i love it so much but i need to do something to make it actually grow leave and not them dying before they get out of the shell

I never had any success with snake plants. Maybe I watered them too much. The stalks would just keel over and rot one by one.

I am in a dark apartment and the landlord pays the electric bill. How much light can I provide my plants before the landlord notices a jump in the bill? Is this something I should limit or can I go all out? I understand if you are not able to answer this question. Thank you.

I have a lovely baby Anthurium Warocqueanum. I have it for 3 months now. It's happy, healthy, giving me new leaves. I think the game changer for her, and all of my Anthuriums, is a layer of sphagnum moss on top of the soil. And keeping that slightly moist.

I keep my anthurium crystallinum rather moist (but no water in the big pot it stands in). I water it every other day. Since i do this, it gives me a new leaf per month. The substrate has to be moist. Good luck!

Mamillaria all tend to flower in a ring. I grow loads of cacti 😊

Love your content and the way you deliver it!

I have a pink Syngonium that is giving me grief 🤦‍♀️ I had it I less light leaves browned, increased the light brown leaves 🤦‍♀️ Repotted the plant no change 🤷‍♀️🇨🇦

Yeah with the Dubia, it’s probably just time to chop it all up and prop it. Start over and get a new one going up a fresh plank and sell the rest of the viable cuttings after they root.

02:04,Its calathea Flamestar Not a roseopicta medallion

With the Dubia, have you considered chopping the plank so you can prop without damaging the existing roots. Thank you for sharing, we all have those tricky plants we keep wanting to master (alocasia flying squid is my current tricky one).

Thank you and Hi from CANADA. 😊

Maybe it’s a silly question bu 55:11 t, where do you get the square with cut corner clear tall nursery pots at? I love them! They may be well known, but I’m a novice so I’m sorry if so! Thank you!!! 🖤

If these plants don't spark joy anymore, time to down size. Take them to those plant swaps. Nooooo, not the Allocasia - Portodora 😮. Now that it's summer, put her outside. Let the natural predators do their thing. I put my Allocasian - Giant Taro out last summer and she is now a beast.

Thank you for this video! We all struggle with certain plants.

Try not to kill an anthurium challenge: Difficulty - Claire 😅

3:12 the decorative pot is hilarious. It’s animating how the plant feels 😂

My Boston ferns are directly in pretty pots without drainage. Before I also grew them in a big glass pot. In my experience when you don’t ever let them dry out and give them plenty of indirect light they are the easiest ones, no pests or other drama

Part 2 and more please!❤❤

My opinion only but planting in glass has never done well for me No matter what kind of plant it is ): there is no air circulation in those roots because of the glass Try using clay pots -less mold more air (:

I just found that plant on the clearance rack and broght it home!

Boston Ferns are gorgeous!! Especially when you see huge ones around. I struggled with mine as well because of its watering needs. I live in a mostly humid environment (it’s humid more often than not) but it still would dry out quicker than I would anticipate. It was to the point of watering it every 2-3 days. I will love them from afar….😊

Hey Claire, what do you think about the idea to put a plastic rope inside a mosspole? Like a selfwatering pot and on the end you put a plastic bottle or something like this? I thought about it for a while but I have no plants on a pole. Do you have any experience with this? What do you think about it? Would this work? Thank you! I love your channel! Greetings from Austria 🥰

👍

I suspect the trouble with the Philodendron Deomesticum Variegata is the lack of oxygen to the roots. The container has a very narrow top which doesn't allow for much respiration. Before you ditch it, try the semi-hydro in a wider-topped container with ample holes set into a separate reservoir for the water. I would love to see an update on it if you do try this. Thank you for all the information you give. I enjoy your videos so much!

D-she-D-A

In my experience anthuriums love Pon and semi hydro….That has changed my whole anthurium game. Also I have a reverse osmosis water filter.

I am making 2 carnivore terrariums, one is a bog. I bought a distiller off of Amazon and I only paid $52 for it and it was worth it for my humidifiers, CPAP, cat drinking and definitely my plants. All my Aglaonema are in terracotta and some are over 10 years. I never use plastic with my Aglaonema

Respecto al Helecho Boston , yo durante años me empeñe en tenerlo colgado en el salón y siempre terminaban por morir hasta que hace algunos años decidí colgar está bonita planta en mi terraza exterior cubierta y voala ! ...se hizo la magia , cada año esta más y más grande y bonito , al principio prnse que no sobreviviria a mis inviernos ( yo vivo en el pais vasco ) pero no fue así , lo único que controlo más los riegos pero está feliz , quizás sirva de ayuda a alguien . 💌

Mine is getting very unstable and tall can you cut it down

25:34 what about notching your Dubai Claire? You could notch all the way down the stem and potentially gets a few new growth points to chop and prop from? 🤔

16:20 Joli’s sweet face in the background watching you is just the most wholesome thing 😍

I have a collection of almost 200 plants and I have a little of everything. Philodendron, anthurium, Hoya, monstera, cactus, succulents, etc. But my absolute hardest plants that I can’t figure out and I kill constantly are Pothos and snake plants! I don’t understand how people say that they’re great beginner plants and that those are the easiest plants to own. Ugh!

Claire, If this was made into a mission impossible movies, what title would you want it to be called? 🤔🤣
