Same I feel sorry for the plant aswell I only use soy at one drop per liter of water and get great results especially thrue flower As long as the ec is below 2.5 you could also use fish sause at one drop per liter as well as oxster sause don’t tell any one though it’s a Seacret
Well, you've gotta give credit to those people at 5 min craps for helping to weed out the ones that really should stick to keeping plastic plants or just drink the soy sauce themselves. I'm sure if we all reported them to YT citing misinformation or harmful/dangerous acts, one of the two will take notice. Keep fighting the good fight!
“What the Monstera!” 😂 I’ve never watched any of those videos showing the addition of crazy foods/drinks, but i knew yours would be very entertaining if not informative. Thanks again for a great video, and don’t worry, your plant will survive. There’s too much plant love in that house for it not to survive now that your giving it water!
I always enjoy watching your videos. You have such a great sense of humor. It’s nice to see that you do research and conduct experiments using a control. I don’t see many people doing that, so thank you. If you had soaked the plant in water after removing the soil it would have helped save it because it would leach all of the excess salt and mineral buildup out of the plants roots. The process is called leaching. You can also do it while the plant is still in the soil. I live in the US where the tap water contains salt and minerals that will build up and eventually kill your plant if you don’t remove them. That’s why I collect rainwater to use on my houseplants and outdoor plants. You are also correct in assuming that the fermentation of the beans used in making the soy sauce is what’s causing the mold. I love your channel. It’s the only one that I watch on UA-cam regarding houseplant care, so I hope you continue making your videos because you have a subscriber for life.😊
On a more serious note, I would be very interested in a comparison between using hard and soft water on a plant that is considered sensitive to watering with hard water like a Calathea or Polyscias. And such an experiment wouldnt end in a disaster by day one I guess😂😅
I have a maranta and hard water, it was doing ok but some brown leaves, I read that they liked distilled water better, so I used my son's Brita filtered water and she perked right up and no more brown leaves.
@@SheffieldMadePlants Bottled water from the supermarket is usually quite soft, at least where I live. Not sure where you would get hard water though if it doesn't come out of the tap - maybe you can buy calcium carbonate and dissolve it in soft water?
Just goes to show that appreciation of a plant's preferences (appropriate light, soil and watering) makes you intuitive about what's going to deadly to it. Glad you could rescue the poor test plant from the sodium poisoning we already "knew" was going to happen. Thanks for taking the really off chance for success so we don't have to.

Interesting! The mold you're seeing could be the very mold that's used to ferment soy beans into soy sauce. Aspergillus oryzae. I guess it's possible some spores survived the whole manufacturing process.
🇦🇺 I was singing plant killer to the tune of Psycho killer 😂 this is why people say to use salt to kill weeds... Still stupid as it ruins the soil! Great demonstration, looking forward to seeing it all healthy again.
I have tomato and bell pepper plants growing on my patio, bell pepper plants were doing great, but my tomato plants were getting rot on the tips of the fruit. I mentioned this to my grandma who lives in Russia, and has been an avid outdoor fruit and vegetable gardener for many decades, and she told me that the rot, called flower rot, due to a lack of calcium in the soil, and she suggested that I start watering my plants with a little bit of milk, I started doing so and this entire summer my flower rot has gone completely away, and my tomatoes are thriving, so I can successfully say that using milk to water plants that need more calcium such as peppers and tomatoes is a fantastic trick
Alternatively I use a homemade KNF calcium foliar spray, which has done the same thing for me and while maybe not easier than using milk, I think its probably more controllable and better for the plant.
I swear I just saw an ad for a plant care app using cola to remedy a sick plant 🙈. I can’t imagine that being helpful, but maybe that could be your next experiment. At any rate it would give us more of your wonderfully witty content. Thanks Richard 😁
No doubt you know that you're amazingly funny. Listening to your humor makes me miss my former roommate who was born in London. She was a cheeky lass, that one.
I am just glad that I’m watching your channel! The five minutes craft does have lots of crazy stuff!! Anyway, thank you for doing it for all of us to learn what not to do😂😂
My grandma was feeding her amazing Ficus with water after washing meat and they strived! And my Lily Cupido likes to be fed with a little milk leftovers to water and she looks so lovely!
One trick I've heard over and over is to put ground coffee on top of the plant soil for pest control and as some sort of fertiliser. I has never worked for me. It didn't kill the plants thankfully but it definitely made the top soil mouldy.
Oh thank you! I'm curious (nosy?) enough I wanted to know what would happen dousing plants in soy sauce(!?!?). Just lacked the fortitude to actually go there😂. So maybe you saved any number of poor unsuspecting plants. Too funny, you made my evening. 🦋🌻🌷😹
I mean... you basically pickle your plant's roots by adding salt so... yeah... i guess that's where the wobbliness might come from. but hey, on the 'upside', once fermentation (vinegar production) starts setting in, you'll have a formidable attraction for fruit flies XD
Could be that real soy sauce- traditional soy sauce- which is fermented and made via a long and laborious process- is beneficial to use occasionally as fertilizer.
RIchard you need to update your PC desk, I saw a ancient monitor and it was upheld by books. Update it to make it a beautifull computer plant paradise!
I never heard about this. But I do hear that giving MSG (Mono Sodium Glutamate) as fertilizer is good for plants. Maybe this can be your next project 😉
A long, long, loooong time ago, I had NO IDEA that salt kills plants. So I thought to myself, "Seaweed is a very healthy food and seaweed grows in salt water, so if I give my plants salt water..." They died.😭 But they were just a few pepper plants that I was sprouting from seed so it wasn't a terrible loss. And that's how I have known for several years now that salt kills plants! So it seems that plants are like fish, some grow in a saltwater environment, and some grow in a freshwater environment.
I'm sweating over a Gardenia plant. I got one beautiful flower, now the leaves are turning yellow. I repotted it about a month ago and it was root-bound and after repotting I did get that one bloom...but now it's looking sad....I bought it in memory of my Mom who passed a few months ago and she just had a way with Gardenias that was incredible! I only remember her watering them, and she would sometimes soak eggshells and use that water and the shells but I'm at a loss. I give it morning sun and bring it indoors in the afternoon. I believe they like a slightly acidic soil, so I've started putting some wet used coffee grounds on the soil. HELP! I Love your videos so much! Thank you!
@@SheffieldMadePlants Thank you. They are notoriously difficult, No idea how my Mom did it, one February years ago I counted 23 flowers on one big plant! The sunroom smelled heavenly......💞
I live in a tropical country. Gardenia usually planted outside in my place. I still have one outside in the open area. Yellow leaves gardenia in a pot usually caused by sitting in soggy soil for long time(over watering?) Let it dry between watering, but not bonedry. Avoid non fermented coffee ground in it potted soil. Fertilize with low N number, higher P and K number 3-4 weeks or after prunning. It's sun loving plant in my tropical place. I hope it's help.
Love your content. Can you do a video on bird of paradise? Mine has leaves that are curling up and developing brown crispy edges, although moisture meter says soil is still wet...new leaves are coming out but old ones all curl with brown edges... I'm having trouble developing leaves that stay green.
I made fertiliser by collecting seaweed from the beach and fermenting it in seawater for six months. I was a bit worried because of the salt but it seemed to do a good job. I only used one spoon in 5 litres of water though!
Soy sauce contains 18 amino acids. I watched this video because someone recommended VEGETAMIN® ECO, a nutritional formulation with a high concentration of amino acids indicated as a plant biostimulant, for the budding and vegetative development of crops which helps plants overcome critical situations such as transplants, frost, and other negative effects, such as phytotoxicities as I have an extra bottle of soy sauce. Thanks for trying it out. Guess there really is too much salt. I have a large bag of branch chain amino acids. Thinking of trying that as people say it helps with nitrogen.
Love that you experiment for us so we don't have to. I have a question though! Would you make a video on treating fungus gnats with ant powder? A lot of pesticides and insecticides are illegal here so we don't have many options besides friendly bugs to eat the bad bugs and neem oil. Would love to know if ant powder actually works!
