    Great video thank you! I’ve been looking for plastic/pvc free alternatives to moss poles and this is my favourite one. How did it fair over the year? Did the roots grow into the burlap? Could you still cut the plant to propagate relying on the roots growing in the pole? I’d love to know. Thank you 😊

    • @EverythingPlants
      @EverythingPlants  Рік тому +1

      Thanks for watching my video... This is actually a fairly old video now. I do have a number of plants on wood planks. Unfortunately the roots only anchor on the wood whereas if you use moss then the plant can obtain moisture and nutrients from there as well. The burlap does not act like the moss pool wood for aerial root growth. It mainly acts as a support stake for the plant growing upright.

    • @EverythingPlants

      I have actually had quite a bit of positive feedback regarding the quiet background music....I lower the volume in editing so it is not over powering. I find it adds a nice bridge during the no talking parts etc. As for the repetitive...I get all my music from youtube as I can place them in my videos and still make money on them. Sometimes they don't always have the greatest selection, but I do try and switch up between a few more ambient songs.
      Thanks for your feedback. I music isn't meant to be the main focus of the video, so maybe I'll lower the volume a bit more and see how that sounds.
