  • Aloha! Join me as I give you an update on how all of the recently imported plants are doing, as well as an update on the recent propagations we've done together. We will also be propagating a few more houseplants in my house that desperately need a trim. There will be lots of Theo "help" along the way.

    I put my cats in time out when they’re acting out for attention. Drop everything you’re doing and pick them up, don’t speak to or pet them, and put them in the bathroom for like 5 minutes. It stopped both my cats from scratching the couch, knocking stuff off counters, and biting plants. They learn that by doing these things to gain ur attention, they end up apart from you and bored. Idk if it works for every cat, but yelling at them or (god forbid) spraying them with water or something, doesn’t work because it either gives them what they want or makes them uncomfortable and lose trust in you.

    I hate to see you having so much trouble with the props! Given your situation as a plant dealer, I highly encourage you to look into getting a grow tent. I think your props will all root and grow much more successfully for you if you can enclosed them in a high humidity and controlled lighting situation. That has been my experience at least. The other upside to that is you have no worries about household critters playing in the props. The stanleyana definitely root faster/better and a very high humidity environment, even though they will then grow wonderfully in room conditions. I’ve also found water propagation to be my slowest method of root growth, except for Syngonium and pothos. The rest all seem to root much faster for me in some sort of substrate like moss, Treefern, perlite… anything where the roots have to search a bit for water. Sometimes I think being in the vial of water let the roots be a little lazy. Hope everything picks up for you soon! (my kitties tend to get mischievous when I am filming also, I think they get confused by the fact that we are wandering around and talking to nobody, lol).

  • @MarisaAndChew
    @MarisaAndChew Рік тому +1

    I had a regular deliciosa in march of last year arrive frozen and then it melted.... i kept the stump in the pot bc meh, and they replaced the plant, then about 3 months later, I got a very tiny leaf or two.... then, my dog was jealous of the plant getting attention so he ripped off the new leaves and uprooted the stump ripping off almost all the roots, so I put it in water to see if it could resurrect a second time, it did... and then when it had enough roots I potted it up with my other monster bc he didn't bug it. He again got mad and ripped it up and beheaded it except for one leaf that was unfurling, that brought us to about March this year... sooo back into water, and now finally it is back in soil, with its friends, and it has 3 leaves!! Chew has learned that "no touch mama's plants" only gives him an itchy mouth and a mad mama when he doesn't listen...
    ALL THAT to say, i think you will get roots and new growth bc my stump after the freeze was like maybe an inch long and had clearly been through the weather, and then its been uprooted and had its roots and leaves ripped off several times since and its sitting there singing "I'm a Survivor!!" like nothing happened. It is funny that my youngest monstera is the middle size, my oldest is the smallest and its replacement is the largest though... Age clearly doesn't matter!!! I had the black nodes so I do def see opportunity for life! I have been using some rooting hormone this summer and a makeup brush that is useless for makeup and putting it on nodes of plants that are planted and then misting it (pothos, philo brasil, and then even my alocasia nodes) and i have got branching and new growth so i am thinking that hormone with a bit of a mist actually helps. I've started to use it on my water props as well. I can't recall if you use a rooting hormone but it seems to work! I have the one by pro-mix.

    So sorry youre having so much frustration with imports via the burocracy. Your video was terrifuc. I love watching you do propagation and plant chores. It really helps me as I assess and care for my plants particularly those which are struggling. Love Theo, he definitely wants your attention. Maybe he thinks youre taking to him when you record and expects your undivided attention. But cant account for when hes an angel when youre not in the room. Best wishes for better luck with the imports. Everything looks stunning. Peace ❤

    I know you have a ton of knowledge and know what you’re doing so I don’t like suggesting something so meek but from what I have heard and experienced pothos cuttings in water propagation does really help. Idk if you use root hormone or anything but I had a spider baby for over a month in water and nothing.. I added some pothos and within a week it sprouted roots! Idk 🤷🏻‍♀️ maybe worth a try.

    I’m also trying to save a Monstera Standleyana after root rot and it is slow going. It had mild root rot due to drying out because my greenhouse is hotter since my neighbor cut down his trees and I haven’t gotten it to improve even with shade cloth. I brought it out and it was bouncing back, but maybe I overwatered it because the bottom leaves started dying. I removed all the questionable roots and repotted. Now it is sad and wilty, but I hope it will rebound eventually. It’s been a hard summer!

    I saw on the houseplant subreddit last night someone posted a sign at home depot that said they had albos and they were 279.98 and you needed to ask customer service (they were not on display just the sign). So if big box stores are selling still for 280 USD then anyone who is thinking 40 from a private seller must be forgetting a 0 on there...
    I do hope to see one one day for 100 or less (CAD) but dang i would never lowball someone especially with something like 40 dollars!!! My venus fly trap yesterday was 12 dollars and that's the going price this year at every location I've seen them, if a bog plant is going to cost me that much i def don't expect to trade 4 of then for an albo!
