Haha, you’re not alone! 😅 The plant stress definitely gets to us, too. It’s like they keep us guessing on purpose! 😂 Keep at it; they’ll thank you eventually… hopefully! 🪴💚
Literally on the struggle bus right now! 😅 I changed a few plants over to a coco chips, perlite, orchid bark, Leca, charcoal chips mix and 😮💨 My anthuriums have LOVEDDDD IT but several of my Hoya…..🙃🤔🫠 Well it’s been a struggle bus journey for those we will say! Also during this time I also had to do a emergency full plant collection pest spray because of a spider mite outbreak from a Curley willow cutting and then temps dropped in Georgia and sooooo did some of those leaves with the repotted and treated Hoya! 🤦🏻♀️ Now I’m choosing to tell them “either live or die” in hopes they will hear my bluff and take it seriously! 🤣 I’m over 4 years into my plant collection journey and still have over 150 plants even after downsizing and their self destruction from the substrate change so thisssss It’s just how I’m coping these days! 🙃 Fun times am I right?!?!?!?! Thank you for always putting out great video content Memo, your timing is always on point!!!!!
Whoa, you’ve definitely been on a plant-care rollercoaster! 🌿😅 Sounds like the anthuriums are living their best life, while the Hoya is giving you a run for your money! And dealing with pests and cold temps at once? That’s like the ultimate stress test! 🤯 Hang in there, and keep giving them your love (even if you have to bluff a little! 😆). Glad this video came at the right time for you!
Thanks, now I know what was going on with my Alocasia Silver Dragon. One the larger leaves had started splitting at the end with yellowish/brown hole forming. The other leaves seem to fine, we will see. 😀
So glad this video helped out! 🌱 The splitting and yellowing sounds like the Silver Dragon might’ve had a bit of stress, but if the other leaves look good, it should be okay. Keep an eye on it, and let me know how it goes! 🤞😀
Thank you for this, it was interesting 😊 I really enjoy these “more scientific” videos of yours. You present things very clearly/easy to understand. (My attention span cant always keep up in one go though, but theres a pause button so all good 😅). Please “geek out” as much as you want, its being appreciated a lot (by me at least, but pretty sure Im not alone in that), My Skeleton key also recently had another burst of yellowing lower leaves and dropping some… usually its when the mosspole is 150cm and I don’t keep up with watering the pole well enough, the top meter of plant stays green and the bottom part yellows and drops. My theory is still underwatering the pole and/or too little light on the bottom leaves (since this time the bottom leaves get partially covered by other plants). When I chop and prop the top (extent the pole at the top), the bottom will make new growth and the top still grows and evolves its leaf shapes 😊 I guess as long as the stem is green, its all good
Great content, Memo! You could have made several videos out of this one topic. And thanks for breaking out the mightily controversial moisture meter 🤣 People on the socials can get a little wound up about that simple device, but it has saved my bacon a whole bunch of times 😉
Thanks so much Dave! 😊 I’m thrilled to hear it was helpful! And you’re totally right about the moisture meter-it’s so simple but gets people fired up! 😂 Glad it’s been a lifesaver for you, too. Let’s keep the meter-love going strong! 💧😆
Great question! 👍 Dropping leaves can mean a few things, including temperature changes, overwatering, or even root stress. If you’re noticing more leaves dropping, it could also mean the plant is adjusting to a new environment or change in care. 🌞 Keep a close eye on the roots and moisture levels, and let me know if you see any other signs!
Hello! May I seek your advice on something? I have a Philodendron Billietae that was stressed from repotting into a different medium. The leaves were drooping for a good 3-4 weeks. But now that it established its root system It is now recovering-- the leaves began to look like they were before the repotting. My question is: the cataphyll was developing before the repot and it stopped and since the recovery it still doesn’t seem to budge. It is not rotting but it doesn’t look healthy either. Is it going to abandon the process? There doesn’t seem to be another growth point developing. What should I expect to happen? Thanks in advance!!
Hey there! It sounds like your Philodendron Billietae has been through quite the journey! 🌱 With the cataphyll, it might stay paused for a bit-sometimes plants need extra time to recover after stress. Since it’s not rotting, you could see some new growth soon. Watch for a growth point or a small bud as a sign! 🌿 Let me know if there are any changes!
Well, that's not only the signs I'm stressing out my plants, that's also the signs the plants are stressing out me 😅🤣😂

Hugs from Arizona 🤗 I am in a similar boat
The boat that is full of people with a lot of plants they really love, but maybe can’t take care of? As well as we’d like? Maybe?🤔
I’m in ga too hey. I pray my anthuriums make it over winter.
@@Gkrissy Plantin wit Pete is amazing- he’s in GA too!

what would dropping leaves mean for stress ? i always thought it was from temps or over watering x
Those are both stressors depending on how drastic. Read what he put in the description. Those are both mentioned.
Great question! 👍 Dropping leaves can mean a few things, including temperature changes, overwatering, or even root stress.
