Girl forget the plants for now, what is your skin care routine it's so flawless 😍
My 2nd life passion, skincare 😍 haha I'll have to include this in the Q&A I'm planning 🤣
@@PlanteriorDecorator oh please do my gosh every video I get so distracted by your skin I barely listen to what you're saying 😂 love your channel 🌿❤️🌿❤️
Yes, your skin is AMAZINGLY flawless!!! I literally couldn’t stop staring lol
@@christabelamoah5585 me too! She's absolutely gorgeous! 🥰✨👌🏽✨😍
You are everything I love about Canadians and plant people.
🇨🇦😁🪴 hehe thank you!
West coast Canadian plant mom here. Could agree more about the plant mat. Except I deal with rain not snow😁
Critter peepers!! I love it! 😂. Oh and you can also scrape your nails across a candle so the wax gets under your nails and keeps dirt out.
Great video-thanks! I’d love you to do a plant tour!
All are such great ideas... just LOVE your "critter peepers"!!!!! You looked adorable in the opening! Congrats on the 5000+ subscribers!!!
Thanks for sharing the tools you use. Very helpful. I will be getting a plant mat to prevent spills of dirt.😊
Thanx. Never thought of those to be helpful. Except vases and cute pots. I buy them at every flea market..... just in case i need them somewhen.
👍👍👍
Water bottle and label maker - yes and yesss
Amazon, here I come. I am interested in your distilled water system. Hello little Sven xoxo.
YES! Please to a vd on your distilled water system! Or at least a link!💜
I just found your channel & after two years of collecting & almost 200 plants I think it's about time I get a planting mat. I do EVERYTHING outside even when it's freezing & I'm over it 🤣
Diffently getting those glasses. My plant mat is the best thing EVER! No more garbage bags! 🤯😂💜
OMG, I now feel so old after watching your video! I used to have one of those label makers. When I was in high school! I used it to label all my books, and notebooks. I loaned it to my friends. Everyone wanted to "type" their names. I think we used to call it Dyno. Or maybe that was the brand. Now, I use a skewer with a piece of paper taped to it for labeling my plants. And for precise watering, I use a turkey baster. It is awesome. Thanks for sharing your tips.
Lol!!! Yes!! I have lighted handheld magnifying glass but HANDSFREE is even better!!!
Beautiful thank you 😊 appreciate your skills on the plants I love 💕 it I love the label 🏷 on the plants that is the cutest!!
Best Starting ever😂😂
😆😆😆 I laughed way too hard watching back the footage with those glasses on
@@PlanteriorDecorator The magnified eyes with your excitement about them are awesome😂😂
just bought the magnifying glasses using your link :) thanks! and happy to support you
Once again, great video. I was happy to have a video tonight after I ordered a couple of new plants.
@@alinamaraa I’m a bit obsessed right now. On Monday I got two jewel orchids. A Macodes petola and a Ludisia discolor for my little ikea green house. Tonight I got a calathea white fusion and an orbifolia. My husband wonders where we’re going to put all the plants in our condo, especially with our cats being a little too interested in them. I’m a huge calathea lover and I’ve made our condo into a humid tropical oasis, as much as you can do that in Calgary 😂.
ThE worst part about our condo is that it faces north and west.
Great choices 😍😍😍 haha I think I have around 250 plants in my apartment, so I believe in you!!
@@PlanteriorDecorator what kind of water do you use in your fountain in your green house? I have a fan and a fountain, and I use filtered water but I still get white dust on the glass. Do you?
@@MsCdngrrl Hmm very strange... I don't! I use distilled water (I have a distiller) but I didn't think it would make a difference 🤔
@@PlanteriorDecorator you have a distiller, I didn’t think you could buy such a thing.
Love this video. I was legit digging dirt out from underneath my nails when the nail brush came on screen 😂
Honestly so obvious... but I would never have thought of it if it didn't present itself to me that day 😆
Check out "The World's Kindest Nail Brush" from Lee Valley Tools ($2.50 for 2 or &10.50 / 12) Very gentle but very effective! www.leevalley.com/en-us/shop/home/personal-care/nail-brushes/10259-the-worlds-kindest-nail-brush?item=CA203
This was so helpful! Ordering a couple of the items from your list. Gotta get that mat!
I would love a video on rooting/growing in sphagnum moss. I don’t have much luck w/ it.
Omg I've been trying to figure out a better way to check for bugs so THANK YOU for sharing those glasses im thrilled and will be buying them asap! Thannnnnkkkksssss!!!
You are so welcome!!!!
i love those surgical glasses so much, i bet theyre useful for other detail work too
This video = my Christmas list :P You should do a big boi house tour :) Give us a look at the plants sitting around the house vs just touring the greenhouses :D
Our monday meetings would hit different if we were all in these glasses 😆
Thats a great idea! Big houseplant touuuuuur ✌🏻
Found U on crazy plant guy .. so glad I did .. live ur videos & the fact that u r in Canada too .. I’m from Manitoba .. all the best is 2021
Just wanted to let you know, I LOVE the way you started this channel. It just feels and looks so professional! Love the consistency of your thumbnails, how clearly you speak and how informative you are!
Thank you so much 🥰 I'm so glad to hear that!!! I'm really glad it fell together as easily as it did 😅❤
Omg the rolling cart and the dang magnifying glasses, SUCH a good idea. I've been battling mealybugs for over a year now on one plant. I THINK ive gotten rid of them completely but then when you get reeeeeally close, you can see them hiding in nooks and crannies. Those glasses would help soooooo much.
Oh they're fantastic for mealybugs!!! Game changer for sure haha
I love your Videos!! Thank you!! 🤗
Great content & clear explanation of product usage
Just keep.up the great work & contonue to put links to products its really accommodating
I just love your videos and the way you have styled your plant space! Thats the style I've always loved.
You are the cutest 🥰 I actually have a pair of those glasses and never thought of this. Congratulations on your success, you are a natural. 💚
Thank you so much 🥰
I also bought a planting mat last month but forgot to use your link :( but thank you for your wonderful suggestions. I am ready to step up my plant game
This is awesome 😂😂 thank you for linking everything - getting em all!!
I was on a hunt for something /someone new. Glad y😊popped up. Good ideas. Thanks. Ive got some things to find. ❤🌿 subscribed
Thank you! 🥰 Welcome! 🌿
Wonder wonderful tools and gifts.
These goggles are awesome! I have the same ones and I can't imagine to do with out them. I use them not only for plants but when cutting toe nails or even the smallest prints I can read it. And this light is great too! Love it!
Just ordered the glasses
Wow what an accomplishment in such a short time, Congrats!! I enjoy your videos so much and always learn something new but when you mentioned traveling to South Korea it made me want to learn more about you, so a Q & A would be fun, for me anyway haha. I can just see the spreadsheet you must have with all your plant care for your bf lol.
Thank you so much! 🥰 Oh that's a great idea!! Maybe I'll post one up on Instagram at some point!
Great items. I’ve been meaning to get a label gun like that. Thanks!
I just got a squeeze bottle and matt with a succulent kit. I LOVE LOVE them both. The bottle is cheaper than my gold color fancy watering can I have but I use it more often. 100% agree.
Those glasses!! I need those so bad! I’ve been looking for a magnifying glass for the last few weeks, now I’ve got the perfect solution!! And now I’ve got even more tools to add to my collection!! Thank you!!!
They're genius! 😆
@@PlanteriorDecorator I agree!! Mine won’t be here until after Christmas though... 🥺 but once they get here I’ll have my milsbo wide set up and can start putting that together. My husband is making me wait to put it together until after Christmas... 😂
When you are old like me, so many tasks require requires magnifying lens. I bought one of those lighted ring ones that sits on a table and I use that to hunt mealy bugs. But I really like your goggles! Those would be useful for more than just plants for me! I needed to put those on my Christmas list!
Plus they're cute 🥸 hahaha
@@PlanteriorDecorator I am already imagining my kids' reaction to me wearing those.
Awesome video! Perfect for the holidays! 💚💚💚
The nail brush is Genius!!! 🤩
I've been using my nail brush for a few years, I don't always wear my gloves & dirt gets under the nails all the time.🤫
Critter Peepers loool I love it! 🤣
Good suggestions. Definitely getting the magnifying glasses
A tool I use: chopstick. Used when repotting to gently poke the dirt around the roots. Came free with a bag of lava rock I ordered from Bonsai Jack with instructions. Also useful to poke holes when propagating cuttings directly into the soil or tease off old dirt when repotting.
Oh yes!! I use chocksticks for everything, super helpful little tool!! Never thought to use it to tease off the tricky old dirt - I'll definitely be doing that!
Congratulations! New subscriber to your channel. Thank you ! Very informative.
Can you do a care video on rhaphidophora tetrasperma and/or begonia?
Great ideas, love your channel
Thank you for sharing
Just found you, love your videos 🥰🌿 the goggles haha omg such a good idea
Hello. Just found your channel! Just ordered almost everything!
I’m here from crazy plant guy!!! Super excited he introduced me to your channel
such a great video!
thank you! 😁
I steal my bf's nail brush all the time (he's a mechanic). Ima order them magnifying glasses! Def need those
Bought the glasses, I can use them for so many things like reading the back of the bottles of stuff you mix for your plants. I also bead and knit and hope they help me with them. Also I use a empty dish soap bottle well rinsed and found it to be my favorite watering tool. For dropper I use a empty eye drop bottle, the tops pop off to fill, then you squeeze a drop out. Another DIY tool I use is a old knitting needle, I use the pointy end to tease out roots, make holes ,and the other end to shove dirt in tight places. Glad I found your channel have a good new year.
Oh that's genius! They're so handy!
Chopsticks are one of my favourite tools haha I use them to aerate and even stake up smaller plants before they need a real moss pole
Went straight to Amazon for the headlamp magnifying glasses and they're sold out LOL I'm guessing that happened after everyone watched this video 😆 I need them 🤓
They’re sold out in Canada but not US
Nope. You’re right. They’re sold out!
“Hunk of a dunk” 😂 love that
Love your videos ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks girl! 🥰
Great content, as always. I’m definitely going to be spoiling myself and maybe a plant friend or two with some of these!
I’d love to see more educational videos. How about one on how you fertilize, what’s your go-to? How often? Does it change in the winter?
I can’t remember if you said you’re doing this already but I’d also love to see how to care for imports once they arrive in the mail. I really think this is the next step for me but I’m terrified I’ll just kill them.
I love your videos so much! Happy I found your channel - you give so much more useful and well structured info than other plant channels. Thanks a lot for that :) One video suggestion I have is maybe you could talk about all the chemicals, like what is supergrowth, what are your other staples. I'm a newbie in plants, and I'm afraif I might be missing something. Also, I would love to know more about different types of fertilizers and stuff. I will check your channel later, as you may have already made similar videos.
Love your channel!
Thank you! 🥰
Got a planting mat over 5 years ago and it’s a game changer for sure. The label maker kinda looks like the Starship Enterprise 😄
Bahaha omg it does 😆
Honestly the planting mat is the best. I used to reuse a garbage bag but it was always a disaster! Those edges are necessary 👏🏻
“Pop a little hunk of a dunk in there.” 😂
😆😆😆
lol!!! i have those magnifying glasses! never thought to use them for plants though. 😜
Works like a charm for bugs 😆
Such a great list! I, too, love the googles! (Btw, I ordered 4 of the items on this list. We have to treat ourselves too at Christmas, right?) Thank you for linking all these items. Be well. Love your videos.
First video of you that I watched and I love it. New subbie here from Vancouver Canada
Thanks for watching!!! I wish I lived on the west coast!
Great video !! :)
Your mascara is on point! Whut are u using??
Thank you! It is the Clinique high impact extreme volume :) also great for sensitive eyes!
The glasses did me in that was soooo funny and I feel like I need them 😂😂
🥸
Bonne Anee, I just susbribed because I like you! Ciao from Italie.
Happy New Year!
How is it I’ve never heard of a plant mat? Gotta have one. New subscriber!
Genius! Changed my life 😆
I use alit of luquid coffee creamers i wash off if need i cut down to width i need. In fact i got some large bambo from a Big Box Store for a dollar a cane still living on my kitchen table my darkest room unless i turn light on. I do all but suc and cactus in there. I take label off and the white plastic looks like a vase or you can decorate it if crafty
Thanks so much for this information. I love your videos and I learned a lot from them. Just purchased the water bottle and I am planning to get some of the other things you are suggesting! From Los Angeles, California
Wow your plants are beautiful! Where did you get that cebu blue? 😍
Thank you! 🥰 I got it in a local auction!
This was awesome!!!! Thank you - so helpful!!
May I ask, what are mosquito dunks?? Thank you in advance!
They are little discs designed to use in ponds to keep mosquitos from breeding in them! They just so happen to work great on fungus gnats as well!
@@PlanteriorDecorator oh wow, thank you!
Hi love the video where do I buy the focused squirt bottle/waterer
Love this video! The cebu blue is goals!
But was wondering about the bottle dropper you use for superthrive - it's not dark glass does that impact the superthrive you have in it? And also what do you do with the extra superthrive? Do you put it in the fridge?
I keep it in a dark cupboard! I only buy the small bottle of superthrive and the whole thing fits haha 😄
Is it sad that I live in Cebu and I don’t have a Cebu Blue yet? Haha
I'm getting those goggles. Great idea. Currently I use my headlamp with no magnifying glass and hope for the best.
A good idea for a video, and you kind of just touched on it in this one. I like the IDEA of a Monstera but when I see a lot of established plants that weren't tied up, trained, trellis'd up .. they spread out and not typically manageable and leaves a somewhat womp womp feeling when they no longer fit the space. I do have potential long term space but I have decided on getting two mature cuttings. So .. I'm not starting from scratch but using these two cuttings to get them to go vertical from the beginning. So .. any info on that would be helpful!
Monstera deliciosa are actually not climbers! They are massing plants! They do climb eventually in the wild, but don't get big enough in a home. Monstera borsigiana ARE climbers though!!!
A lot of borsigiana are sold as deliciosa, and it's impossible to tell the difference until they've matured.
Mature deliciosa leaves will have a ripple to the stem where it meets the leaf! Borsigiana will not.
Deliciosa can also look beautiful, but IMO need more trimming to keep them from being too wild!
Love the goggles...what are good bugs..what do.they look like..can you make a video on that..tks..Cat..Vancouver Island 🏝
Any tips on dealing with a mealy bug infestation? I've been battling one for months, and they just refuse to die!
I like beneficial insects! They are pricey but they do an amazing job haha. Orius Insidiosus (pirate beetles) and Green Lacewings both eat mealybugs I believe!! 😁
You can also be persistent with diluted isopropyl alcohol sprays, but IMO beneficial bugs are just so much easier!
I have a video about them up on my channel 👍🏻 I personally like the pirate beetles a lot!
I always see people talking about putting their plants in the shower. This may be a dumb question but doesn't that make alot of dirt come out of the pots and get in the tub? Just wondering if you just wash all that down the drains?
If you fill the tub, then put the plants into it, it's pretty clean!! Letting them bottom-water for 30 mins or so is a great way to make sure those roots get the water they need.
Washing off the foliage isnt usually too messy either! Soil-wise at least haha
Hi. Thank you for all these tips.
How to you get your mosquito dunks? I am unable to order it online.
💚💚💚
Interesting suggestions. I didn’t know cuttings needed to be in the dark - you mean only specific types? I found eschavaria leaves need bright light to grow rosettes and roots. Since I don’t have any plant sitters, I think the most useful gadget for me is one that can be reliable with watering plants when away on vacation, though I know you don’t need that since you have your fiancé taking care of them while you are gone. Just curious, what type of job do you do? Sounds like a dream job to be able to travel often for work - you mentioned you were away for a month in Korea or so.
Not too dark, but not too bright for a lot of them!! I root tons of cuttings in rooms that have 0 windows, only regular LED ceiling fixtures! Works like a charm 😁
I'll do a Q&A video where I talk about my job soon! 😁 And my travels to Korea hahaa my fav place to visit for sure
@@PlanteriorDecorator look forward to it! 😃
Hi! Just found your channel.. question - do you recommend putting succulents into a “greenhouse” type space? Would you suggest high humidity or low humidity? Thank you in advance!! 🥰
Succulents would do well with a grow light, but don't require high humidity! You could make a cacti/succulent cabinet/shelf with a growlight and skip on the humidity addition!
@@PlanteriorDecorator thank you soooo much!!
Hi. Where do you get the mosquito dunk?
I actually have those glasses. I originally bought them for sculpting small things but I now I mostly use them to see pests or to pick out the thorns when I bump into my opuntia.
😆 they're awesome!!!
video about decorating plants with different style. what plants looks good as table/ shelf/ hanging/ floor standing/ wall decoration etc.
havent seen it on your channel breaking down about that 😁😁 since its name "planterior decorator".
thanks anyway
I can certainly do that! 🪴🛋
great.. keep a goodwork and thanks for the good content ms
mosquitto netting for fungus gnats. for some reason they don't go to the black netting ... bunching it up is working well. Can some else try and confirm my findings ??
🌱🌱🌱
GIRL WHERE DID YOU GET THAT SWINGING BED?!?
SO CUTE 😆 homesense/winners!
Nice video. I'm interested in that story about why you went to South Korea though lmao
Me too!
Same!
It's to visit her best girlfriend
@@yvonneuriarte2429 yeah I saw her Q n A video
Her with the goggles: 👁👄👁
Can those goggles be used with prescription glasses?
I just tested this... the answer is yes! With a little finagling haha
@@PlanteriorDecorator thank you, I was thinking of buying the headlight (I'm already using the magnifying glass) so I've felt very identified 😅
Ordering everything shown ✍🏻 my bank account does not thank you LOL
Omg I can't even imagine how huge your eyes would be in the goggles 😆❤ thanks for watching girl! 🪴
BTW your insta story made me want mac & cheese so bad 🤣 trying to smoother the cravings with wine rn.
My husband was like why are you using a magnifying glass on the plants!?
Ist view 1st comment
Very nice 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
Also can we get a video on how you’ve gotten 5k subs in two months because that is insanely fast haha thanks!:)
