      Haha I actually have about 10 boxes of books in the garage that were once originally on these shelves lol

    The funniest part was watching your cat follow your every move in sped up time as you emptied the shelf 😅

    Nice job! I’m jealous. Maybe a rolling cart for some of your supplies?

    Looks nice! The only thing I'd be worried about is the nepenthes xventrata not making pitchers there. They want a lot of light, you get either aborted pitchers (the tendril buds never inflate) or deformed ones (missing or small lids) if they're not standing bright enough. On the other hand, it's a ventrata, they can take a beating. I'm still beseeching you to get some of the more awesome nepenthes :D
    If I was in Australia, I'd be sending you a cutting asap... need to convert more people to the nep hype.

    • @petevsplants7516
      @petevsplants7516  Рік тому

      I was wondering if that was the issue with the pitchers as they seem to be missing the lids on them, so I'll have to try and give it more light then! Thank you!

    Looks great Pete. Do you rely on just natural lighting for this cabinet ?

    • @petevsplants7516

      Yep, it seems to be enough from the other side of the room and the windows there facing west.

    Your new arrangement showing off the plants looks really nice!
    Just in case you run out of space, we ordered a tall 10X10 Eagles Peak greenhouse from A.
    We love that there is so much vertical space for shelving.

    • @petevsplants7516
      @petevsplants7516  Рік тому +2

      Oh very cool! I'll have to check it out. Still unsure how my plants would go in an outdoor greenhouse in Vic. The winters get pretty cold, though, would be so amazing to have that extra space haha

    • @surgeinc1
      @surgeinc1 Рік тому

      Yeah, I didn’t realize what zone you were in.
      A sturdier greenhouse for sure.

    • @od.vandeveer
      @od.vandeveer Рік тому

      @@petevsplants7516 you need good humidity and good light for the pitchers to form. But, the picture is small though, it looks like yours are deformed. Maybe this will help ua-cam.com/video/RyDOpuOhPyk/v-deo.html

    Loved this video Pete you crack me up. I do love how easy you made it look to make a living wall from a bookshelf. Here I am designing felt pocket walls with drip systems in my head that will never get built because... money.... and they'll totally fail on me because I'm just that good. All I need is to find some shelves on marketplace. Rippa. Thanks mate.

    Awesome video Pete. Shelves look refreshed! 😻Peaches agrees!
    also...
    Alocasia sinuata is commonly called Quilted Dreams/Mirror Face
    Syngonium erythrophyllum is the Red Arrow/Llano Carti Road
