      This is the first video I’ve seen of hers! And subscribed!!
      Quick Question! Is she just soft spoken, or is she whispering for a reason? (Like does she have a sleeping baby or roommates who have opposite schedules? Lol Idk just random things that came to mind first) Definitely not a bad thing and am not asking to insult her, just curious if that’s her norm. Her video was extremely relaxing because of the way she speaks. Although There were a few moments I had to replay because I couldn’t actually hear what she was saying

    We used to have plams when I was growing up. Whenever we traveled and came home to almost dead plants my mum would put in some fertilizer in the soil and water it religiously everyday for like 2 weeks and it would come back alive.
    You can try that. It would be so painful if it dies.

    • @nnguyen98
      @nnguyen98 4 роки тому +9

      @emmalovestotumble 4 роки тому +4

      I would definitely say its both the terra-cotta and the fact that it has so much more foliage to support! I work at a nursery and we often recommend keeping maidenhairs on a humidity tray (a saucer with pebbles and water) so that is has extra water to pull up as it needs! We also frequently recommend potting a maidenhair in terra-cotta, but then putting that same terra-cotta pot in a larger cache pot full of water so that it can continuously drink up as it needs!

      Selene C No, ferns don’t need too much sunlight. It’s because the clay pot absorbed part of the water so that fern needed watering. I keep my fern in a glazed pot with no drainage hole, then it has all the moisture it needs and is not going to die if I don’t water it for 2 weeks.

  • @dollykid
    @dollykid 4 роки тому +17

    Hi Audrie! I think your biggest fern *may* have suffered more because of the terracotta pot. It absorbs moisture, which is good when you have a tendency to overwater, but can cause dehydration in many cases. I’d suggest moving both your ferns to plastic pots, they could require less watering and should be fine when you leave for quite some time ;)

    @soralaexploradora 3 роки тому

    You probably know this by now but all the low tolerant plants like the prayer plants can be pulled further away from the light source; then they can go longer without water since they’re using less energy. I think the maiden hair fern that was closer to the window dried out faster because it was closer to the window? I’m glad most of your plants survived! I’ve seen “only plants” revive a completely dead plant like your zebra by cutting it completely back to a stump. As long as the roots are ok, somehow the plants regenerate as long as you pull back on watering and let them be. They came back bushier than before! Plants are amazing.. God is so good 💚

  • @juliaaalovee
    @juliaaalovee 4 роки тому +6

    good thing to do is to move plants away from the light when you go away! watering is always proportionate to light so if there was too much light and not enough water, then you have the poor lil zebrina situation. Move the particularly thirsty plants into a dark spot next time :)

    i do this (leaving everyone for 2 weeks) often because i bounce between my bf's dorm and my house and sometimes i'll be at his for two weeks straight. I dont have loads of plants but they do fill up my tiny dark room and theyve always done well, i guess they just adapted to my weird schedule. it helps tho cus it does actually keep me on a schedule lol. every time i come back i get to check on growth for my plants and terrariums, water n mist everyone right as i get in and it's super relaxin'
    i havent gotten new plants in foreverrrr so this vid makes me excited to get some new kiddos. honestly the maidenhair looks pretty even when its all crispy so i may have to get one and if i kill it well at least it'll make nice dead decor too 😅

  • @aerabus8339

    Hey! I just wanted to give you some advice on the palm you mentioned, but mostly on you mentioning that you mist it to increase humidity. Unfortunately, misting doesn’t do much of anything to increase the humidity, and mostly just evaporates within minutes. Pebble trays, a humidifier, and grouping plants together is pretty effective at increasing the humidity for it though. I hope your plants are doing well in the meantime ! :)

      Hi! If you usually don't have luck with plants i really recommend a zz plant, snake plant, or pothos!! Or of course succulents. In my opinion they're some of the easiest to care for! I hardly water my zz, snake or succulents. Like once a month/every few weeks when the soil dries out completely. And pothos will look wilted when they need water so they tell you what they want. They also don't require much light!

    The reason why one of your maidenhair fern lived and the other didn't is because the one that lived was in a ceramic pot and the one that died was in a terracotta. Terracotta pots wycked away and and breathe causing the soil to dry out faster. Are your other pot which is ceramic keeps all the water in the dirt letting your friend soak up all the water instead of it being wycked away. Hope this helps :-)

    For the two Maidenhair Ferns, the one in the terracotta pot probably dried out much faster due to the pot being more porous. If I 'm seeing it correctly, the other one that is looking good is in a ceramic pot. Ceramic pots tend to hold in more moisture. I've made this mistake with my ferns and now I only put them in ceramic pots.

    Did you leave your blinds up while you were gone? The direct sunlight looks like it scorched your first maidenhair's leaves, but the second one was pulled back a bit and received less intense light so it didn't burn. If that's the case, that might be why the Zebra plant took a beating as well haha

      I left them up, but both ferns were right next to each other on my desk. This window only gets morning light as well, so I thought it would be okay... I’m really confused honestly! 😅 Zebra plant was my bad, I should’ve kept that one away from the window 🙈

    The fern plant that died looks like it was too close to the window so lack of water and high sun brunt it

    I think the hydro spikes don’t work that good if you combine it with a terra-cotta pot. Due to the fact that the terra-cotta is porous

    You’ve made me really want some plants in my room but I have to ask, do plants attract more bugs?😭 I’m really scared of them but I just want the clean air and aesthetic

      bianca w can I ask what plants you have? And if you live in a flat/apartment or a house? I also wasn’t sure if the bugs thing was also just a house thing if you have gardens etc so maybe I’ll be safe in a higher ground city apartment 😭

      Some will come with fly gnats straight from the nursery, you just have to isolate those for a few weeks before adding them to your current collection. They’re kinda annoying but only come out when you water your plants.

    i recently bought a small basil plant, and its been gradually drooping since the day i got last week. Idk why cuz its been getting enough indirect sunlight and water. What do i do?

      @Leah Anna John if you’ve only had it for a week (a bit over a month now? 😅) watering daily is not good. These plants generally like to dry out between waterings. Wait until at least the top 2 inches have dried out and then give it a thorough watering. This means: enough water so it starts to run out of the bottom drainage holes. That way you’re enduring that all the soil is moistened and all roots have sufficient access to water. Then wait to water again until the top two inches of soil have dried out before watering again.
      Hopefully your plant is still alive and thriving when you read this! Good luck! 🍀

      Eh, occasionally- but only if I’m overwatering by accident.

    How do you care for your brasil philodendron? I got one recently but it looks wonky, a lot of people told me they basically thrive on neglect but I stopped paying attention to it for a couple days and it got a ton of dried leaves/spots ): It seemed like it was over watered before I got it so I let the soil dry on top (took about a week) and now it wants to die on me lol, any tips?

    • @AudrieStorme
      @AudrieStorme  4 роки тому

      I’d have to see it to be sure, but it could be a number of things: too much sun, aging leaves, chemicals in your water, improper drainage, etc. As long as you see new growth coming in, it should be fine. If not, I’d probably try checking out the roots to see that it’s not rotting/root bound or something like that. Might also have an infection 😖 that’s happened to me with a couple of plants before!
