Gloomy Days & Finals Stress | VLOGMAS DAY 6
My succulent obsession just started. Every weekend I am buying 5 to 8 plants. So many now, I need a place to store them and provide enough light. This video has helped. Thank you
Muy lindo su video yo tengo ficus lyratas pero no he podido comprar el ficus andrey
May i know the colour of yr growlight
How many days can they survive this way?
Hi, How long does succulent survive in tissue paper?
Abigail I am doing the exact thing you are doing. What is the exact rack name. I want a rack to hold the 72 prop tray. Thank you
What kind of water do you use? Tap water or distilled wirh added nuetients?
I love you videos!!! Thank you so much☺️
What lights are on your shelf in the back ground!?
Where to get tray
Where did u say u buy them?
very helpful, I’m on a low budget and i need organization tips, this is way better than laps curds irregular lighting i have been using, and guess what? my daughter and grandkids lived in columbia SC, I have been there, the Lion King Market by Right ce Creek Elementary school, jaida my granddaughter went there the people in columbia are so very welcoming so much more pleasant than where i’m from in sacramento calif. Thank you for all your skills
Thank you so much for this!! I've been figuring out how to ship a succulent as I'm moving out of state. This is very helpful.
Wasabi hoya looks like a Rosita.. maybe.
Thx for sharing !
thx
Hi there! How far do you ship? How far is it safe to ship these succulents without it hurting the plant?
hey very helpful video! i ask myself if the moss pole absorbs nutrients through the rope as well ?! or do you have to fertilize it seperate?
Hi Abigail How are you today?🌹
This is awesome! I’m a newbie and I have a ton of leaves and stem cuttings and just bought some grow lights. Do you have any videos on the beginning stages of propagating?
Nice video. Sure, High end grow lights are more expensive than the units you have. But there are cheap units, cheaper than the setup you have collected that still provide more than adequate light for their intended suc use. Being a plant person, you really should dig in and learn about the led grow lights available. Just this week, I picked up 2 40w led’s that put out white, blue, red and ir. 2 pack for $30.00 Good luck. Looking forward to more videos.
For how many days, can they survive in these packings?
Thank you, for such a informative video, i would like to know, how to plant them after receiving
What sizes do ya order? I’m gonna sell some of my succulents that I won’t have room for inside for winter , hard to know how many ppl with order . They can get one or 20 . How long did it take to receive the boxes from USPS ? Thank you 😊
Really nice lighting set up. I don’t want a bunch of trays of succulents in my home. I love succulents for their beauty and their ability to thrive. I do not want something that looks like a succulent growing business. It seems to be impossible to keep succulents inside without some kind of special lighting set up unless your home was built to have magnificent outdoor lighting. Too bad that most grow lights are made to look industrial.
Would love if you made that video about taking care of multiple propogations from one leaf. I have a lot of leaves doing that and I don’t know how to help them thrive
Thank you for making this video!
You're cool thanks !
This is so good! It was very helpful! I’m thinking of starting my succulent business! Maybe you can help me?? Give me ideas, tips and tricks!
Hello. I need to know if the echeverias stretch out under those lights in the summer. Thank you! Stay safe.
Hey Miriam! I haven't had any issues with succulents stretching under the lights.
@@abigailgray5554 thank you!!! Stay safe Abigail😊
where did you get that gorgeous audrey?
Have do you fell about misting plants. Hey good show. I'll follow. Need to learn more..ty gregg
Thank you very for this wander packing techniques of succulent.
You are truly true to yourself. Good for you.
Could you please link to what string you used? I’ve bought three different ones so far and none wick great 😌
hi.. please make a video how to water them under grow light
Could you use this setup to overwinter annuals like Petunias?
This is so neat and exactly what i'm looking for! Thank you so much for the tutorial. May i ask what's the purpose of reducing the roots and what is the safe point of how much we can remove them in a way that we are not ruining the plant to the chance of dying?
So glad you found it helpful! You don't have to remove the roots at all if you don't want to. I find that when I remove the roots, it reduces the amount of loose soil that ends up in the box. Succulents root super easily so I'm not too worried about taking off too much of the roots.
Since this video is a year old, are your plants still happy under the Walmart lights?
Thank you for the video! I have my succs on my dresser with cheap clamp grow lights from Amazon. Some are happy but others are so stretched. Plus I need more space! I want a setup just like this. Thank you so much for the links, it's great to know that I may not need specific "grow lights" with big price tags. These lights give the plants everything they would get from the sun?? Do you ever have problems with stretching? Your plants are gorgeous! Thanks!
Yes, these lights have been lifesavers for me and my succulents! They absolutely thrive under them. I occasionally have some succs that stretch if they're on the outermost row of my seed starting trays. I just added a 2nd grow shelf to my plant room because I ran out of space on my first one... oops! But yes, a year later and the succs are just as happy as day 1!
@@abigailgray5554 thank you! 😊
So happy you’re back! Congratulations! 🎉🎈🍾
Me too!!
Congrats on your engagement and new job 🎉👏
Thank you!!
Congratulations on your engagement 🥳
Thank you!!
Hope you are doing well! You have been MIA for quite a while and I miss seeing your videos. Will you be posting any new videos soon? I have learnt a lot from your videos and would love to continue learning. If you do plan on getting back on UA-cam, could you please do a video on your plan for Spring/moving the plants outdoors. Thank you and look forward to new video soon 😊
I really love your videos, specially the one when you say that suculents needs a enormous amount of light. I love suculents but they are not easy to grow if you don’t have lots of sunshine and sometimes it’s simple imposible to give them the amount of light that they need. I can grow some crassulas, haworthias, but not a graptopetalum paraguayense or a titubans, they just get etiolated with three hours of direct sunlight and I live in an apartment so i have them in the balcony. Many videos are like give them sunlight since sunrise till 12 am. And then on the afternoon filtered sunlight. I think that many many people watching Can’t do that. Now I’m trying with grow lights and that’s how I found your Chanel. So I love your approach and I expect you to do more videos, so sad I find them now and the last one it’s from six month ago. I hope you read this, thanks for shearing, you are su funny and realistic. Saludos de Buenos Aires, argentina
Hey Megl! Thanks so much for your kind words :) I have plans of getting back into filming soon!
Nice video but I wish you would’ve showed the whole set up
I attempted tp transition a hoya crimson queen into leca and unfortunately it died. Not sure what I did wrong. I am new to leca and any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated.
I'm about to set up the same sort of thing in my office. Same shelving units -- two of them -- but I'll use Durolux 4x1.5 foot LED grow lights. I mostly grow cactuses, by I also have some succulents. I've been growing a lot of cactuses from seed because by ordering seeds online I can get species that aren't available in local stores. Anyway, I too have been putting my plants outside once it gets warm enough, and until now I've just been putting them on windowsills when I brought them inside, but now I have too many for that.
To THE POINT Please 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Thank you so much for your kind words!!
Such a lovely Hoya collection. I’m still new to Hoya. But loving them and getting more everyday. Lol
