Thanks! I really think this is important to show as well because there's no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to caring for plants, especially when you are raising them in different climates! Glad you enjoyed. :)
i know im randomly asking but does anybody know a tool to get back into an instagram account? I somehow lost the password. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
Summer! I have one raphadophra which I had propagated in the har of water....I got a cutting of stem with only one leaf on it...and no roots but just a node....I kept it in a jar of water and kept changing water every couple of days...and finally now it is having 9 leaves and still in a jar of water ...I haven't potted it yet in soil
Growing up in the Philippines I remember these huge leaves climbing on the big trees in our backyard and I was amazed of the split leaves. Since you mentioned that monstera is from other part of the world so the plant must be rhaphidora..thanks for bringing us to different places and educating us about their plants!
Coco chips sometimes are available at hydroponic growing stores. There was a great one with amazing supplies in NYC / Queens off Kissena boulevard. Coconut chips also are more sustainable than bark and sphagnum moss as they do not require harvesting a tree or sphagnum itself. The hydroponic stores sell them in a compresses brick, that once put in a bucket and made it wet expands and breaks apart.
I think what you're talking about might be coco peat? Can't be sure coz I've not seen what the stores around you sell. Coco chips don't traditionally expand in water; like this guy mentioned in the video. Those two are completely different and behave very differently as soil component for plants. To anyone reading, please do not to use them interchangeably.
@@riyapaul339 He is talking about coconut chips. You can buy them loose, or in a brick/block which you add water to expand them. They can be purchases at greenhouses or on Amazon. I've purchased both.
Really enjoy the videos with Sandy in them. Great to watch you both, good team. Plus..the side kick on your shoulder, I love birds.. just makes the plant gardens so much more enjoyable. Thanks again for sharing.
Im falling more and more in love With Your channel Summer Rayne!! Such great content, so much to learn :D Love this man as well, the way he explains Things is so informative.
I so wish I had the humidity Sandy is working with! 100% coco chips and apartment heating/cooling are mortal enemies. I use a mix of coco coir, pumice & worm castings. I find a really fast draining mix that holds a bit of moisture works best in my particular culture.
Love the little parrot on your shoulder Summer ~ slightly photo-bombing the video! (I think it fell in love with you). Now keeping a sharp lookout for that Rhapidophora in London ~ it's an absolute beauty! Sandy comes across as such a lovely friendly guy.
Love this whole video! I propogated the first plant I got, it came broken in the mail. The break also had an infection going on. Anyways, ended up with 2 cuttings, used just regular potting mix (rooted in water first), one survived and is doing great, I gave it to my mom. The second one died of root rot. My mother plant has now reached my ceiling, in one grow season! I got it in April '21. I'm about to cut the top off and propogate it. Great info! Thanks 👍
mine cutting have a few root and one leave but being in soil just rotted a few roots and lose the single leaves altogether... so in goes spaghram moss in a jar, still too wet so now in mixed loss soil with lave rocks and fir barks and some moss..crossing my finger again....Sandy is awesome..the weather by him makes more wonderful happy plant then us in apt and diff part of the world..thnx for sharing this video SUmmer!!
bad luck on the stem..it turning black and heading toward the healthy roots...going to cut it off the black and apply cinnamon power over the cut area and keep in moist spagham moss in pot and hope for the best..still got one healthy roots...this is soo sad :(
Sandy's BACK! Summer, ..... you were badda$$ with the birdie! Very cool. Real interesting about coco chips only ... i wonder if that would work for us here in Nyc?
I live in new Zealand so it's quite damp here, I first put the cutting in some water for about a week, then into sphagnum moss in a plastic bag inside a cup, to trap in moisture, so far it's been 2 and a half weeks and I can see the beginnings of roots 😃
I got a couple nice cuttings in June from a friend, with roots like this guy says they should have. It was doing fine. New growth and all. I used a nice aerated potting mix that I whipped up myself. I didn’t overpot or overwater. Just found this week that everything below soil level rotted to mush. So, I was able to save some of the top….potted it up in a little hydroponics pot, brought it into the house…and my cat ate half of it. I put it somewhere out of her reach, she went to a lot of trouble to get to it. And she’s still alive. Brat.
Lunch break while watching a video of you. 👍🏻 What can be better? I mostly duplicate my plants in water. if they have roots I use a mixture of floral and cactus soil, with a little granules and pine bark. This works amazingly well for the tropical plants in my apartment.🤷♂ 🤞🏼 I save myself fertilizer. Since fertilizer is usually added already in the potting soil. Thank you so much for the video, Summer. 🙏🏻💚🌱
Just took a bunch of r.tetrasperma cuttings this morning. It gets humid here too but I didn't use the same potting medium. Hoping it doesn't rot now lol
Thank you Summer for another great video. Well I’ve learnt something new today, I’ve never seen someone adding slow release fertiliser propagating a cutting....I propagate my Rhaphidophora tetrasperma in water. That bird was adorable! 😘
I like him, he's very articulate. I don't mean that to be rude, I just love how easy it was to understand how he does this and why, the expectations were perfect. 😄
I’m on the east coast of Australia, so nowhere the humidity of Singapore, but if also doesn’t get too cold. I generally prop my tetra in plain water and in summer/spring it’s ready to plant in 3-4 weeks. I’ve tried spag moss before but I had trouble with the stem rotting so just stick with water!
Loving ur channel more n more.. im staying singapore n i tot that plants in cocochips will tend to hv root rot coz cocochips retains water.. seeing this video and ur other video make me learn alot as a newbie in caring for houseplant.. keep up the good werk and may god bless u with healt n wealth.. thk u again.. 😚😚
I received a cutting online very similar to the one he showed. It had one decent sized ariel root and 3 leaves. I tried rooting it in moist sphagnum bc it is really dry here, but 2 of the leaves dropped and most of the root rotted. I have it in a heavier medium thatI don’t keep as wet, but I think it doesn’t get enough air. I think I’m going to try less wet spahnum. TLDR: don’t keep them too wet.
@@summerrayneoakes at what point would you change the medium or can it stay in coco chips indefinitely? (He said not to re-pot in a different medium after receiving that plant but I wonder for how long)
I got a cutting from work. It just has a small bud instead of an aerial root. I dipped it in rooting hormone an put it in water. I am still waiting, for 1 week now. (I am in the Netherlands btw, so still winterish now)
Great video, great information! I am curious as to what that beautiful caudex plant on the left side of the screen as well as the bright orange spines guy is. Both great specimens. Thanks for another great video!
My first attempt of propagation rotted. Now I have new cuttings and I wander what should I use as medium this time. I have leca, Orchid mix and pine bark. I have to avoid rotting my cuttings.
Just picked up two beautiful pots of these from costa farms at Walmart for just $18 each, going to be breaking them up and selling them to plant friends in NYC
Thank you for sharing this one😀 I potted mine before in water (after happily propagating monstera obliqua), but the leaves got yellow (I lost two out of three:/), water became dense and cloudy and I thought it's not how it was supposed to be. I put it in a mix of soil, perlite and small pine bark chips, just two days ago. In my conditions it should dry out in 1-2 days. I also moved the plant 1 meter away from the windowsill, although it is an east facing window. Do you think it's ok? I'll be waiting for results.
@@aychkay3534 Unfortunately I lost the plant. But I cannot really tell what is the reason for that.

With other plants I had success in propagating and rooting plants in soil as well as water-then soil method.
Wonder why not just prop in water? I need to try this sometime! Good info. So far I have two cuttings in water for about two weeks and the roots are about an inch now.
Summer, after cutting the Raph above the old node can I expect the original plant to put out new growth again or a new shoot somewhere, or will it stop growing vertically? I've been hesitant to cut mine as I'm worried the area I cut will stop growing altogether.
I wonder what kind of slow-release fertilizer he is using and at what point you would put the plant into a well-draining soil. (Maybe leaving a significant amount of coco chips in the soil?
Holy crap I was a little worried because of the caterpillar on her shoulder @0:56. Lucky for her it just fell off 😅 I've had bad memories with caterpillars when I was young. They always make my whole body super itchy, reddish and full of rashes! Edit: is that really a caterpillar or just a coco fiber thing (I saw her kinda giving it to the bird)
In Thailand firstly we tend to remove tannin chemical from the coco chips by submerging it in water for 3-4 days. Tannin hinders the growth of the plant. We do not use dry and new coco chips straight here in Thailand.
My rhaphidophora has been trying to push growth for a while now and it seems the new growth keeps rotting away. I have it potted up in terracotta in a very airy fluffy mix (coco husk chunks, bark, coco coir, perlite, and charcoal, with some worm castings) and general room ambient humidity is around 50-60 if i don't run my humidifier. Can anyone tell me if this is normal at first? I hear a lot of people have it not do anything for a long time and then it just grows like crazy. My window gives me a northeast exposure which is pretty weak light but my other plants seem to be just fine with it.
Mine hasn’t been growing for over 3 months now. The humidity in my room is about the same as yours. I’m in Hawaii. I have four healthy leaves on mine and a few tiny white bumps along the stem that are it’s aerial roots. Still waiting for it to start growing.
My r Ginny is very leggy I bought her that way. I want to cut and propagate because it’s one long heavy stalk and I think it needs to be shortened due to its own weight . Can I propagate if there’s NOT an aerial root?! Just with water etc
Does anyone know if this plant can be propagated just from a node (without a leaf)? My plant lost most of its leaves so wondering if I can chop it into nodes and try to regrow. Thanks in advance!
Can we just put the aerial roots directly into the soil? I thought there should at least be some roots grown out from the aerial roots in water before we put the plant into the soil?
I happened to see a rhaphidophora tetrasperma at a local flower market last weekend. It looks like a cutting with 3 leaves only. The price was US$30. Crazy.
Ma'am, will u plz upload a video on how to propogate string of bananas, I have tried several times but failed...,the tips of the cutting gets rotted up, plz give me remedy for propogating it the right way....
That's why it's called "Mini Monstera" -but Monsteras are from a different part of the world (Latin and South American species)...Rhaphs are Asian Aroids. The growth structure is different too. Monstera deliciosa tends to have really meaty stems and thicker leaves, whereas Rhap, at least in cultivation, are far more delicate-both leaves and stems....The leaves of Rhap are nearly see-through...not quite, but they are thin. The seeds / ovules of Rhap are also different and I'm sure the flower (spadix/spathe) have different characteristics, but I've never seen in the wild, but that's usually another important (and the main) morphological feature in telling plants apart. Hope that helps!
Can someone help me? My new plant snapped completely in half, taking off more than 50% of the plant with the cut. It has a few air roots but it’s a long piece and I’m scared it’s too big to propagate. It’s the length of my arm. It’s small leaves. What should I do?
off the subject but how do you get rid of gnats ..flies I think they are called my friend has them and I am now paranoid 😕have you got a video on pests control?
C C yes she does and she recommends mosquito bits which you can find on Amazon for gnats.i tried them and they got rid of all my gnats within a few watering cycles. Use mosquito bits for the larvae in the soil and yellow stickies for the already hatched adult gnats.
I live in Sweden and I am having a very hard time finding any kind of coco material for my plants. Do you have any tips for something I could use instead?
I propagated mine by just cutting them off and putting it in a jar of water. They love water. They can grow in a vase with just water in it. I don’t understand why he is claiming that it needs a soil that drains well.
Je suis Française je viens de découvrir vos vidéos avait vous vraiment toutes les plantes que j ai vue dans vos vidéos ? comment faites vous pour les arrosées car vous en avez beaucoup que de travail. je ne parle pas un mot Anglais je ne comprends pas tout ce que vous dites dommage que vous vidéos ne sont pas en Francais elles doivent être très intéressant à bientôt Martine

They can stay in water but theres a chance theyll not do well in the future or in soil. Youd have to acclimate them to dry medium in the future
How long before the roots grew out?
Summer is a plant and bird whisperer. She keeps her cool even when the birds are pretty bitey!
I love how the bird just loves hanging there with you 😊 Just hanging out with his girl Summer for the afternoon!
Beautiful plant 🌿

The original plant will definitely put out a new growth next to an old leaf node. There might be more than one new growth even!
I adore Sandy!! Does Terrascapes ship worldwide? Thank you for this series 👌🏻
Hi Barb, we can ship plants. However, shipping from Singapore can be a little pricey.
Will new growth come to the original plant from where you take the cutting?

Can we use claypot instead of plastic nursery pot? I understand terra cotta clay pots wicks moisture so I wonder how often will you water?
This is so interesting he just put coco chips . I wonder if I can do that here in Japan .
I'd imagine so! I've seen pure coco-chips done through Thailand too.
Give it a try! Long fibre sphagnum works as well!
Hydroponics stores and pet stores usually sell coco chips.
Thanks That was helpful but tell me something does Monsters delicious produce Spadix? I thought it didn't.
I have quite a large plant but no arial roots...can you still root with a plant node
Would Coco Chips be a good thing to try if my door plants tend to have root rot easily and takes a long time to dry out properly?

Yes of course. That could always be done. But I feel that someone who is so intimately associated with plants can offer better tips and insights.
Can someone help me? My new plant snapped completely in half, taking off more than 50% of the plant with the cut. It has a few air roots but it’s a long piece and I’m scared it’s too big to propagate. It’s the length of my arm. It’s small leaves. What should I do?
What slow release fertilizer would you recommend me?
Kippy gonna be jealous that you letting somebirdie else perch on your shoulder! lol

off the subject but how do you get rid of gnats ..flies I think they are called my friend has them and I am now paranoid 😕have you got a video on pests control?
C C yes she does and she recommends mosquito bits which you can find on Amazon for gnats.i tried them and they got rid of all my gnats within a few watering cycles. Use mosquito bits for the larvae in the soil and yellow stickies for the already hatched adult gnats.
What book so you recommend to learn house plants names incl Latin names?
What’s that orange spiny plant?? I want one
That would be Aloe dorotheae.
I havent been able to propagate my monstera, I try to use cocochips and fertilizer too but it caused my root rot 😢
Humidity? To much
I live in Sweden and I am having a very hard time finding any kind of coco material for my plants. Do you have any tips for something I could use instead?

I propagated mine by just cutting them off and putting it in a jar of water. They love water. They can grow in a vase with just water in it. I don’t understand why he is claiming that it needs a soil that drains well.
