    I wanted to say thank you so much for all the positive feedback on the website! The first drop of plants sold out but I hope to do weekly drops either on Thursdays or Fridays. I'll let you know when the second drop will happen after I see how it goes for me with packaging times. I appreciate all of your continued support and for wanting to buy plants from me 🥹 Thanks for watching and have a great Sunday!!

    Oh wow, i think you may have had some callus that accidentally got included with the main tissue culture plant. Callus (the hard wonky ball of plant tissue that has growth sprouting out of it) apparently produces lots of tiny plants.. and Melissa, when you pot those up, if there is any callus left on the seedlings, they may continue to multiply. This is as far as I understand it.

    • @plantsbymelissa

    You are the only one of the UA-camrs I follow that when using nursery pots, put the moss poles in the center. They all try and make more room for the roots not understanding that the roots will fill in the space that’s provided whether they grow around the pole or just in front of it.

    • @plantsbymelissa
      @plantsbymelissa  3 місяці тому +5

      Yes! The roots find their way all around in the soil and not just in the front. The pole in the center gives me the most support 😁

    Beautiful Monstera Mint! I can’t wait to see their updates. 🤗
    I have several of those acrylic boxes. I turned two into terrariums, and few others I use for my baby plants. I keep them on heated plant mats. I use those acrylic plant rods (also from Amazon) to hold the doors open, when needed.
    Congratulations on the success of your website. It’s wonderful to see your hard work pay off.

    I have 3 of those acrylic greenhouses! In my home office, I have a wall of book shelves that have adjustable shelves. Hubby moved one of the shelves so that the boxes fit next to each other. BUT, I set the boxes on their sides so the door opens like a cupboard door. That way they are much higher for taller plants! The best part is I took the acrylic box lid from Ferrero chocolates, put them in the box. After putting my solo cups of plants inside (inside a hole-less solo), I put a layer of water in the tray. I put my humidifier on the edge of the cups, closed the door and much later came back to find the humidity to be 70 degrees. Oh, hubby installed a Barrina grow light under the top shelf. Cool, huh?

      They don't really need sphagnum moss inside. It's a lot to keep it moist and the aerial roots grow kinda crazy so just using it like a stake for support. I used to have some on wire poles but the aerials grew straight through it lol.

    Your monstera is a white monster, not a mint😆

    • @plantsbymelissa
      @plantsbymelissa  3 місяці тому +1

      Okay, so I recognize your comment of this before and I did some research and from what I found it’s only a monster if it came from Kunzo’s monstera. I saw where someone said in an interview he did that when you chop a mint and expose it to a good amount of light the next leaf can be full mint aka white monster. Then if you prop that again you have your full mint plant. White monster is apparently just the name he gave to it. So technically any mint can grow to be a “white monster.” My mint is exposed to a ton of light.

    • @sokunthyye54
      @sokunthyye54 3 місяці тому

      @plantsbymelissa I'm not quite sure about that. In my areas, we call them differently. And the white monster costs a lot more than mint when it first came out. Now, the price is quite similar. Love your videos🤩

    I’m so sad I didn’t get any of your plants 🥹 I have been on the hunt for Hoya linearis for a long time, I was so excited when you said you were listing some. But I wasn’t fast enough this time.

      I wanted the same. It's okay maybe next time we'll both be able to get one😊

      aw, so sorry! I have a couple more I am posting for the next drop and then I will be propagating more here but it will take some time for those to grow.
