Chatty repot with me! Treating root rot on some of my favourite anthuriums
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 сер 2024
- I've been saving some of these grumpy anthuriums with root rot for a repot video -- it's not severe root rot, but I take you through my general treatment process while we chat through some life updates and make a huge mess of my plant room 😮💨 hope you enjoy hanging out!

I thoroughly enjoy the longer videos. I listen to you and Charmaine throughout my days. I’m spring cleaning, all about “everything has a home or it goes away”. Also, I don’t mind sponsorships within videos. It’s how you can make money! Especially if you love the products or services! I love learning about new products, companies, etc through the people I admire most. Keep growing, I love your content and authenticity!
I feel the same way!
For sponsored content, I also just want it to be QUITE explicit that it is sponsored or I immediately get a bad taste in my mouth when it comes to that creator. I hate it when they do the whole spiel and then at the very end, very quickly, mention it is sponsored. I think Jessica Braun and Fern do a great job when it comes to incorporating sponsorships into their videos.
Congrats on your consulting opportunity 🎉
I love long form videos because I can listen to content while being productive.
And so often I learn more about plants and plant care when something is mentioned offhand.
I mostly listen but I love having visual references available too.
Short videos means I let UA-cam decide on the next videos 🙄 or I have to (which can be disruptive if it is required every few minutes).
I’m okay with sponsors when they’re relevant and recommended. I can only imagine how demoralizing it can be putting so much time into making content without reasonable compensation. Not that we all need to make money off all the things we do, but your content takes actual work and investment in equipment. Get paid my friend. We’re here for you.
I love cleaning and organizing. I donate items all.the.time. It gives me such a good feeling. Trying to buy less so it doesn’t continue forever 😂🤑
Great advice about cooking for yourself and saving money eating food you like/love. I feel inspired and motivated. Thank you!!!!
Thank you for the super thoughtful comment as always!!! ❤️ I love reading your thoughts, and yes, I’ve made the goal of being way more intentional with my purchases too and not be decluttering for the rest of my life
I had an out break of spots like that on a couple anthurium too, no yellowing. I never saw any webbing or mites. Such a mystery. I treated with sulphur spray and it stopped. Flat mites would make sense, my Hoya had it. I didn’t realize they like anthurium. My alocasia spider mite magnets never spread normal spider mites to anthurium. I love that you offer possibilities and what you hear about in your videos. Different environments/plant care styles, it’s great to get the exposure! Thanks!
On the sponsorship/promotion I say go for it! You can always tell us “I am curious about this” or “I wanted to try this out”, it doesn’t have to be something you already trust, that could be limiting. I want you to get that money! I like to hear about non plant stuff too, if I am not interested I still try to watch thru so I can support the channel. You deserve to make a living and this is part of it.
So glad I’ve been listening to strangers while picking and watering my plants 😅
Definitely the longer videos!!!
Loving the longer videos for sure, great to listen / watch while repotting or simple plant chores.
So far I'm getting organized, I have 2 portable plant carts coming (loved that idea from you and Charmaine) and designing a sunroom/greenhouse for the backyard for 95% of my plants. This will also double as my home office. Really exciting time and Thank You for sharing the revamp of your plant room, it seems more functional and spacious for you.
Oh my gosh, a sunroom/office sounds so dreamy!!!
I much prefer the longer videos! I learned so much just from this one video.
I have the coffee bug too. I used to own a coffee shop for a short while (inside my husband's music store) but we closed back in 2016 and I really miss it. I sold off my espresso machine and now I just have a Nespresso set up, which isn't the same at all. I miss making real drinks but my ability to start a new business is kind of impossible right now,. Good luck with your new endeavor!!
I don't think drainage holes is the answer. I think LECA is. What I've done, to great success, is to have a layer of perlite on the bottom 30% of the glass, then a slight layer of lava rock on top to show the sort of perlite top for reserve purposes. Then I put the roots in above that, with nothing but leca around them, and finally I put a mix of pon, lava rock and perlite at the very top, with Osmocote slow release. Having the leca around the roots gives them more of an airy climate where they are most concentrated, while maintaining moisture. And then they can grow "water-roots" down into the perlite/nutrient water area at the bottom. It works very well. Lastly, I would've gotten rid of the tree fern fiber, and anything else that can rot. TFF can bring rot much easier than pon/leca/perlite.
I wish I was into leca . Just not appealing to me. I prefer her varied methods. I love my soil just like she does. Plus I have seen all those methods experimented in the channel before so I’m sure by now is just preference choices.
I have been out of work for about a month now . The first few weeks I just needed to do nothing and make sure I was making the right decision. Now I'm in the spring cleaning mood big time. I have 3 large bags of stuff to donate from just one small closet. I can't even fit anything else in my car until I go donate it. I have not been able to do a really good thorough clean in five years. So this year it is. Finally
We’re so in the same phase right now! I think part of why getting work so soon is bittersweet is I really wanted a few weeks to do nothing 😆 and by nothing I mean repaint my house
@@youdontevengrowhere it would be nice if we could just take months off and get everything done before we go back. Good luck and thank you for the videos. They really get me motivated
Girl, get that bag! As long as you are being genuine with your audience, get the damn bag!! If I support a channel I support them getting paid. I’m a full time student so I can give any support beyond my time, so if my time helps you.. good for you!!
Good chat and I like to watch repots of more expensive pretty plants I will never own 😂🪴
I actually really don’t mind sponsored content and things along those lines as long as they pertain to the specific channel! I’m always interested in learning about new plant products and being exposed to new plant products - so I think it would be so useful for myself and you as a youtuber!
I love a good long from released Friday morning to Sunday morning. These are my company while doing the bulk of my chores. But I appreciate a good 20min ish video mid week. ❤❤❤
I’m the same!!
I like all the videos, long or short. The new set up gives you an awesome back drop for filming--love it! We just started spring cleaning at our house. I'd love it more if we had some decent weather to go with it (rainy in Seattle), but I'm determined to believe the sun is still there!
Love the long videos you produce. I often do planty chores at the same time.
I,m very interested in pon at the moment, so any updates after you have planted in pon would be very useful.
Thanks for your informative videos.
My first watch and enjoyed very much and learned a lot. Hope you keep putting out more long chatty videos. Thanks!
Long videos are great btw!
I love your long videos, they give me something to watch while hand washing dishes.😂
I like your short videos too and I also watch them.. if I watch them while washing dishes I just have to stop and pick a different video after. No biggie. :)
Super duper love this video! Learned a lot and love the end update of your plant room! I'm not a very good cleaner. Hope to get inspired by you 😂
Sponsorship is good if you truly enjoy the products. We always need to know what works best for those of you we look to for advice and inspiration.
I like both long and short videos. Sometimes I watch longer ones on like 1.5 speed so I can binge more while I work. :)
Unfortunately no spring cleaning for me, but I'm spring garden mode like watering my outdoor plants that are waking up from the winter and repotting some that really needed it.
i really don’t mind sponsorships, get that money girl!
I loooove long form videos personally. And re: sponsorships, I don't mind them at all if I feel like I can tell that the creator genuinely likes and believes in what they're promoting.
I'm definitely not LONG OR NOTHING 📣📣 but I do get a ton out of them and am happy to chill out and do some plant chores while they're on❤️
so chatty!
LOVE the longer videos but its what you have time to give us.. I am going through all the winter clothes but mostly my husbands 😂 he is a window guy and most of his stuff has chaulk all over it.. I am getting my veggie garden ready.. chilly here in Toronto today though..
I'd love if you had the join community option. I don't watch ads and never will (sorry...) and I don't know if skipping the sponsored part of the video also cancels some revenue but if it does I would love to be able to support your channel directly. And I don't mind if every video you post has a sponsorship part, again I do skip those anyway and I could not care less if you even take the most annoying sponsors. So no problem here.
The thought of viewers sending money really breaks my heart, I don’t know if I could ever have the guts to do any sort of pay to watch platform 🥲 or maybe I’m just misunderstanding how it all works which is not unlike me 😂
@@youdontevengrowhere community program on UA-cam doesn't require you to make paywalled videos. It's more like a donation to live streamers. Some creators do perks, sometimes early access, sometimes extra polls or Discord server etc. but not all, some people do nothing extra for members and that's also completely fine. I think as long as is completely voluntary you don't need to worry 💚
My anthurium are doing so well in no drainage. Philodendron on the other hand are hating it and I have 0 motivation to deal with them 😢
Love your potting mat! I looked on your amazon list and didn't see it there, would love to know where you got it!
Hi Alice ,I love the longer videos but am happy with any.I am battling a full on breakout of banana aphids from my banana tree 7 ft. Tall
That means washing over 200 hundred plants and putting neem.on them.I have a baby nono banana tree and they got them .Soooo the banana is outside and I'm dealing with the pests.Thank you for spending time with us and sharing your knowledge and precious time
Hi name twin! Holy crap treating bouncing aphids on 200 plants - you need a heckin day of relaxation after that
I love these longer videos and I’m just starting to get into anthurium now. Your collection is definitely goals. I do have a question though. One of my anthurium has a new leaf that is not expanding and I don’t know what could be wrong with it. Any ideas?
Nice video
Petition to call the A. RA5 x Swamp Bunny "Rasbunny" for short because the 5 looks like an S and it sounds cute, like a raspberry bunny
Also, for the whole sponsorship idea, all I have to say is please please do your research with the companies you are partnering with. Not that I don't have faith that you will, but I've seen so many youtubers promote products and services from companies that are dubious if not outright scammy. First it was Raycon earbuds (customers reported that the products were actually poor quality), Established Titles (the plot you own is not legally recognized), and then Betterhelp (poor services, scamming by charging prices higher than expected, and unethical practices involving their process of getting therapists iirc). What's worse is that huge UA-camrs worked with these companies, so they introduced their audience to these scammers. Although that's more prevalent in the general youtube sphere than the houseplant youtube sphere, remember that houseplants are also an industry and there's a markup with products like grow lights and other products when there are cheaper alternatives available. I mean there's definitely no issue to partnering with grow light companies but I guess I just added it in because the question of whether grow lights actually have a significant improvement over normal LED lights is something plant carers have always been wondering about because they're trying to avoid the industry prices when you can just get a cheap LED. That can also be a video idea btw. Excuse the lengthy semi-rant
When i first started watching plant videos and saw 1 hour 2 hour vids, i thought HELL nah hahahw. But i actually love them. I fully cooked my dinner while i watched/listened to you talk. Consulting is good $$ dont worry about the expense part, just get an accountant 😊. I do not enjoy cooking, anything taking more than 30 mins...cant deal. I want an instant pot but the clean up has me on the fence lol
The instant pot cleanup for me isn’t too bad, it’s just the dang gasket that holds on to smells 😒
Also I find it so hard to make
Love your long videos ❤
Love the long videos 😊
Looooove your long videos!
I love the longer videos but I’ll watch you long or short.
I’m in spring cleaning/organizing and “fill my entire house with plants” mode lol
I purged as many plants as my heart could bear for the time being but it’s still too many plants so I just started hacking leaves off 💀
@@youdontevengrowhere oh no 🤣 I’m just getting back into the hobby after being out for a few years, but now Im importing like crazy to get my collection back up to par lol
My dog pounds my coffee as soon as I walk out of the room
My decorating is plants. Im in a small (868 sq ft) condo that I share with a roommate. So all but the bathroom and the roommates room are full of plants.
I like long videos. Spring cleaning is almost done in my home🎉
Congratulations!!
100% do sponsored content. UA-cam does not pay enough for the amount of time and work you put in. The only way to make it work for you is to do sponsored content! As long as you do take sponsorships that you actually love, people will keep trusting you and your content :) If people have a problem with that, they're not going to enjoy youtube at all lol. They need to realize you are giving them content for FREE so they can get over their issues with ads. Get it girl
Concerning the little spots: I think I know what it might be. It seems it’s caused by overfertilization - using too much fertilizer. In my experience with anthurium it’s best to fertilize it once a month. It’s enough!
PS. I love your content, thank you!
Spomsored content depends, for a small yter I can watch a sponsorship every video, but if a roch yter were to make random ads every little video it would annoy tf outta me, it all is context based, the more subs and views you have the more you're worth to sponsors and get more per sponsorship, so get that bag!
As long as you’re not taking the most out there random sponsorships I’m pretty sure most of us are all for it
What did you use for spider mites??? I normally use neem oil but I’m wanting to try something else.
I used Safers End All in this video! I’m still searching for the perfect spider mite solution which by all accounts does not exist haha
@@youdontevengrowhere Thank you so much! I am definitely going to try it!!! Oh and btw I’m enjoying the longer videos. I can play your video while I’m watering plants and listen. (Same room) LOL! ❤️
Hello Alice! Can you tell me, is your tent a 2x4? Grats on your consulting decision! Personally, I love the long vids. 💚
Yes! 2’x4’ and 5’ tall
@@youdontevengrowhere awesome, thank you!! I was trying to gauge how big my tent was, I have the same size, but it's still in the box (need to make room for it).
I'm actually so glad that I'm the kinda person that doesn't ever wanna bother anyone so ordering food is a no no for me, don't wanna bother a driver, also I can't get delivery where I live, ALSO it takes soooo long, also it's so much more expensive 😅 the only positive would be to support the drivers finantially, otherwise I usually only ever get food somewhere else if I'm not home cause I just trust myself most with the cooking and handling of the food 😬
Ok I felt the “not bothering anyone” thing so much 😅 do you ever feel like an asshole when you wanna use a coupon in store 🤣
@@youdontevengrowhere omgggg yes haha, I'm the type of person to turn all the groceries onto their scanner side so the cashier don't gotta turn it haha
Not all anthurium wendlingeri clones produce corkscrew inflows. There are a lot of different types and they’re all named anthurium wendlingeri.
Personally, I find it frustrating because I want to know exactly what I have in my collection.
Whatever he is, he’s beautiful.
I was under the impression that spirals come with maturity! I’ve seen straight inflo wendlis on facebook and the discussions seem to suggest that there’s a possibility it’s not a (pure) wendli but no one seems to know for sure
So just wondering. I have youtube premium so I don't see ads, do you still get paid for my views even though I don't see the ads? I'd rather just cancel my membership if my favorite creators make less from it but I really have no idea.
You’re too kind 🥺🥺 there is still revenue from YT premium watchers, I just have no idea how it compares to non-premium! I say if it makes the experience better for you then it’s a worthwhile subscription
What are some of your favorite instant pot recipes? ❤
My favourites are the ones that would typically take hours otherwise, like a good hearty stew and also risotto because that’s too much of a workout for me 😂
Which dollar store chain carries the glass vessels?
Dollarama!
😢Don’t have this chain around me. How much are those vases?
Yayyyyyy
❤
I watch a lot of a YT and feel mehh on sponsorships & ads.
I personally HATE advertising. I hate how I listen to the radio and there’s ads, turn on the TV there’s ads, scroll through social media, ads.
When it comes to YT, I totally understand taking advantage of opportunities to make any money on YT, but I as viewer hate watching sponsorships & ad breaks. Especially bc I come to YT to relax and watch planty content.
I’ll still be here watching, and occasionally watch through ad breaks & sponsorships to support channels I love & sub to, but if every other video feels like there’s a sponsorship it definitely becomes more of a turn off.
I think for me what irks me, is short videos with sponsors. It’s a great way for me not watch.
So I guess my input would be, if there’s more sponsors, still keep the longer form videos? Or like a 25-33% sponsor to nonsponsored videos ratio?
my strong opinion on sponsored content is get your dollars sis :)
I cackled 😆😆
I’m fine with sponsorships as long as it’s relevant to the content and I’m not being bombarded all the time. I also get really sick of seeing the same sponsors all the time. vpn, audible, glasses usa, native etc. A lot of sponsors aren’t relevant to me either as I’m in Europe or they’re just too expensive. Like the Mother lights - they’re just incredibly expensive here. Either way, you can skip the sponsorship segment if you don’t want to see it. However, I usually watch the ads and don’t skip because I want to support the content creator
An hour video is good for me. Love Charmaine but the 3 hr videos are too much for me because I like to see what your talking about. I don’t mind sponsors as long as it’s not every video. Good luck with your future consulting. 💚💚💚
I couldn’t cope with the pressure of that many sponsored videos 😂
First
🥇
just be careful of scammer sponsors 👍 cough cough Established Titles 😄
I’ve never heard of scammer sponsors 😳
@@youdontevengrowhere it's all over UA-cam, beware 🫵
You have educated and helped me soo much about learning about plants 🪴. Woman…Get those sponsorships!!! Content Creating is a job and you should fully be compensated any/every way possible. I am cheering you Charmaine all the way!!!!
I love watching all of your videos - long or short! Just to give my feedback on sponsorships…imo it is better to stick with sponsorships related to what your YT channel is about. I watch some plant channels and they will be promoting products and services totally unrelated to their channel which seems weird to me. I also don’t think you have to only stick to promoting things you already have and use. If you get a sponsorship where it is something you don’t use, but think it might be something to try…there is nothing wrong with accepting it and saying to your watchers “so-and-so reached out to me to try this product and it seems promising or interesting or whatever so I thought I’d give it a try and let you all know how it goes”. Whether it ends up being a great product or a total bust…you have given us real life trials for something we might be considering. We all know the only way YT creators can continue making videos is you need to and deserve to be compensated for your work. I think I can speak for most of us that seeing sponsored videos with genuine feedback only adds to the value of your content. Now back to my spring cleaning project…cleaning out the back patio and getting my outdoor plants all situated!! 💚🪴
