  • Every week, our resident “plant doctor” Hilton Carter, takes us behind the scenes into his own home jungle to answer questions about plant care and tips. But we thought it could be fun to, er, grow the series: sending him into real homes where the plants aren’t always quite so healthy. That's why we’re launching House Calls with the Plant Doctor.
    In this week's episode, Hilton helps Susan with her Bird of Paradise named Rhianna. He walks Susan through the test to see if Rhianna is getting enough water and how to know when it's time to repot. If you've ever wanted to see the process of how to repot a dauntingly large plant this episode is for you. Hilton also shares a secret about Bird of Paradise leaves and how to let them expand to their fullest.

    I found that wrapping a wet, warm paper towel around an unrolled leaf , it will open on its own.

    I just discovered your channel and I freaking Love you. I am Jamaican and my house back home has a lot of plants but my step dad has the green thumb so I would buy plants and he takes care of them. 14 years ago I moved to the states and never bought plants because I was so busy. I started growing a couple plants (in love with Orchids) years ago and whenever my depression rolls in my plants would die. 6 moths ago I started reconnecting with plants. I realize that they really help with my depression because I refused therapy or meds. Now I have about 80 plants in my apartment. They make me extremely happy. Sorry I ramble when I get excited. So in short I love how excited u get when u talk about plants. Thank you for helping us with our babies.

  • @chinesenoodles8005
    @chinesenoodles8005 4 роки тому +21

    the browning wasn't necessarily under watering, it was the plant not being able to take up water because it was so root bound. These plants can actually handle very arid conditions.

      @icemancometh8679 3 роки тому

      An easy way to keep bugs away is mix some dish soap with water in a spray bottle and spray them it's mild and the bugs don't like the taste of it. I don't know if it necessarily kills them but it helps.

    I liked when he said the only water schedule you should have is water when it's dry. I have a bird of paradise and I check it every day and water it when it's about an inch dry from the top. Use rainwater to water and mist it.
