Thank you so much ❤️
I recently went into emergency room and assumed I'd go home same day. Turned out they needed to admit me and I was in hospital for 6 days, 5 nights. My poor plant babies suffered from my absence! Thanks for sharing this info as I do have a vacation coming up.
Praying that you are feeling better ❣️🙏
Oh no! Are you feeling better now? Your plants need their mama!
Good tips. Enjoy your vacation!
thanks Myra!!

Hoping you get to make a few informal neighborhood walk videos showcasing the greenery! Great video and loved that you don’t over-stress about losing a few plants.
Oh I will definitely be trying to capture as much plantlife while there as possible!
Great information Devin. I hope you and Samantha have a wonderful and safe vacation my friend. Take plenty of pictures and videos. ❤👍

Whoa ! here's "Blast from the Past" :)
Devin; So Good to be able to access UA-cam again. (have been hospitalized since Jan 11th) 3 Hospitals & 2 different physical rehabs later I came home to 70+ Dead Orchids 😢 No one offered to water or help. Will take me some time to catch up on ALL the video channels I follow. ps. Did you plant the Purple Leaf Cotton?
Glenn! I was wondering where in the heck you’ve been! Are you doing alright now? Dang that’s a travesty, I would’ve watered them for you 😪 we spent the summer away from home so I kept the seeds in the freezer
Great tips!will be very helpful to many people!👍
Enjoy your holidays !
💚🌱🌵☘️💚
Thank you Sylvia!
This was really interesting. I went away two years ago for what turned out to be ten days. I had my roommate turning my one grow light on and off and for two plants my neighbor to water the two plants that I watered every third day a neighbor came in and did that. I just watered the day before I left so they could go ten days without watering. Which I did after arriving home. I didn’t lose a single plant.
Sounds like you knew exactly what you were doing!
Some people get a dog sitter, I get a plant sitter. Less than a week, I put most in the bathtub with water.
Finding a good plant sitter is something you never give up!
What do you set the thermostat at hen youre home ?
We tend to let it get warm in the summer and cold in the winter indoors, so about 76F and 64F
What if you are moving-how do you fix them to travel? I have Desert Roses.
just carefully place them in a crate with you to ride along in your car
@@plantvibrations they would be riding in the haul. I was told to dry them out before moving.
Great video thanks for the ideals! 🫶🏼🪴🥀
Thanks for watching :)
