    I appreciate you mentioning that if you keep your plants clean and healthy you should have less pests. So many UA-camrs scare me with their pest horror stories, so it's good to hear that although it can happen it doesn't have to be catastrophic. I love plants but I don't need more stress in my life.

    Today has been such a hard day.
    My Dad passed away after a 12yr. battle with cancer on 9-20-23. About a year before he passed he had given me a cutting from his fig tree in the back yard. It was thriving & beautiful and then we had a hard freeze that it just couldnt take. Just like with my Dad I had done everything possible to ensure it's survival... but it still did not make it.
    It is literally the only plant I have ever fought for and nourished to the best of my abilities and lost.
    God can be funny like that I guess.
    Now I love each and every one of my plants differently though. I just focus on enjoying them. I spend time admiring them with a heart full of gratitude because I am getting to love them at all. No matter if they make it or not.
    So tonight I am up and sleepless, missing someone I still love so dearly. However, knowing that you have had loss and probably have a similar relationship with your plant friends makes me feel not so alone.
    I cannot thank you enough for just being on this platform.
    Sending lots of love, hugs, and prayers sis.

      Krystal, is this the same plant you eventually placed outside in one of your later videos & you mentioned that the sun changed the leaves to like a very light purplish/pinkish color? If it helps you made like a cute cactus 🌵 trellis to support the plant?😂 No worries gonna pull up the old TikTok. But if it’s, then I want to purchase one from the same manufacturer you mentioned because I was truly impressed with their packaging!! Love ya Chica!👩🏻‍🌾🏝️

    Thank you Krystal! You're always so calm and kind in your videos. Even when you get a little crazy, there is an inner calmness that is very soothing. Love this video, as I struggle very much with leaving new plants be. I had an mpromptu repotting till two in the morning today. I was being very good at not fussing over the new plant, until I saw a mushy aerial root in the soil. In my sleepy state, I made some mistakes and had to repot twice. When I went to bed there was still soil and mud everywhere.😅

    If you use citrus castile soap it works as a gentle pesticide. I used it to treat a spider mite infestation while everything was shut down. I couldn’t get insecticidal soap but we always keep a variety of castile soaps. It worked great and my majesty palm is still here and still pest-free. I need to stock up this weekend. The orchid show is next weekend and I want an army of dwarf orchids.

    I cant remember what cutting I bought but the seller added a free leaf cutting of that hoya. I must admit I was not over impressed. Stuffed it in my Prop box and left it. Nothing happened. Needed room in the Prop box so pulled it out stuffed it in a pot and forgot about it. Then noticed a couple of new leaves. It's grown so well and it's now one of my favourite plants. I look at it every day. Its so stunning.
    I do smell my philodendron as I love the smell of them.
    Great video hope it does well

I don't rush home and repot I come home see whats going on under the hood lol then I treat every new plant with Captain Jack Dead Bug brew and the new guy lives in a day spa bathroom for a month. I'd rather do this EVERY time then to play"Let's save the Villagers from Godzilla!" and have to spend sooooooooooooooooooooooo much time and money on trying to save the other townfolk in my collection. I don't need the stress. Plants are my happy not a Marvel comic needing heroic big budget scenes.

    ❤KRYSTAL❤ just messaged on another comment and video. But if you're to grossed out on feeding live insects to the VFT. Grind up dried meal worms (can mix fish flakes) when ready to feed grab some and add water almost like a paste or applesauce consistency. With a toothpick with some food on it. trigger the plant and when it closes, carefully massage the leaf so it triggers again and completely shuts close and statst the digesting process. I feed my serrancia, pings, VFT and sundews like that. Just make sure the food doesmt fall into the soil.
    I did so much reasearch cause i couldn't feed them live insects.

    It so important to see what the soil the plants come in... Generally, the few i bought, i do find the online orders have the right soil type.
    The other day, i stopped myself from getting a cuddle cactus from trader Joe's because it was sitting in coco coir 😰😤... All of them were soaked. I didn't rescue any of them because I had a hard time dealing with cactus death 😅... They make me feel really guilty if they die.
    PSA: if you are thinking about a cuddle cacus from trader Joe's, please make sure to take them out of that coco coir and transplant them into cactus soil mix. People have been saying the plants die after a few weeks.

    I actually got a philodendron ring of fire for $5 on clearance at Walmart! She needed help, but she is going! Cut off the rot on top, drained her out really well, and then waited to see what was happening before checking roots. She has. 1 torn up leaf, but she's going!
    I've been doing my best to not mess with the soil. I did get a new fiddle leaf for myself for Valentine's Day and decided to bottom water. Centipedes! I almost threw her outside! She got down potted because of what I had available, but I don't want those in my house! She just about to pop a new leaf, so I think she's good

    I’ve learned if I buy from a box store, dump it out of its pot and check the roots, I often find plugs of death. I bought a figgy vine that I didn’t repot/check and it was NOT doing well at all, it was awful. Finally had time to do the deed, 1/3 of the pot had heavy silt in the bottom. SILT! MUD!! Not any kind of potting soil anywhere should be using. Once I fixed that, what was left stabilized and is doing great. I’ve found plants that have the tiniest hair roots and nothing that would ever last if not attended to quickly. Needed some good soil, rooting hormone and TLC. Some of the crap out there is so awful.

    I love your videos they got me back into keeping plants again after I had a lot of mental and physical health issues that I killed off my all the last plants I had except for my snow white (snow queen?) pothos. I'm curious what is your suggestion if you buy a plant from a big box store and its root bound I typically will completely repot them then and there to not cause further issues on their growth. in your experience would you recommend going ahead and repotting them when you first bring them home or let them adjust then repot?

    I love that leaf spray but its EXPENSIVE! Lasts a good long time though and makes your leaves so shiny and supposedly doesn't block the light or leave a residue.

      Yay! Happy to hear you've had good experiences with them as well. I'll keep trying it out.

      @@PlantswithKrystal yes I love them. They’re tough and they come back every year with very little upkeep!
