This is the first time I've ever commented on UA-cam and I'm nearly 36 haha 😂 but I just had to say that you remind me so much of me and if I didn't live in New Zealand I would want to be friends with you 😂 everything you said I can relate to especially the $ spending on plants in such a short amount of time 😱 you made me laugh so much! ❤️ Thanks for a great video!
P. S Commented before end of video... Just had to say I feel the same about hoya and also succulents 😬 I don't like saying it haha cause I'm an odd one out but I totally get it 😊😂
Are you kidding us, of course we want to hear you ramble, we miss you so much. I agree I don't need 20, 30 little plants sitting around when I have 20 other big ones. Don't get me wrong I love seeing them grow up but I realized I rather buy a plant thats already a good size so I have more of chance to keep it alive. lol
I'm definitely feeling more burnout than usual. I want to cut down as well, but my problem is I still don't know what to cut out. I'm also contemplating potting a bunch of 'similar' ones together in a long rectangular selfwatering planter. Maybe all my syngoniums together in a pot, put my pedatum/florida ghost/florida beauty/florida beauty in a pot, etc
First, I did not know how much I needed you until I saw your video today! You do you girl, but just know we miss your beautiful face when it doesn’t pop up!! Second, I learned that just because I can identify it doesn’t mean I need it… or even want it. I got into a bad habit of going to the plant stores and buying the plants I could identify. I was excited my plant knowledge was growing… and then I ended up with a lot of small plants I discovered didn’t really bring me joy. I learned I don’t like peperomias, echevaria, cacti, dracena, and the list goes on… except in beautiful photography. I only bought them cause I could identify the different varieties. (Also, I don’t like hoyas).
The amount of plants I’ve looked at and thought “what a stupid plant” after having it for 3 months and realizing I only bought it cause I recognized it is absurd. Many went to the porch graveyard this year.
Great video. I use a mixture of water, alcohol and dawn dish soap in a spray bottle for mealybugs and also works great for scale. I remove the big ones with the q tip and then spray down the plant very well and let it sit before I clean it off.
I've missed you !!! So happy you love your new job ,, You just do what make's you happy and we will all be happy for you ,, You looked after us over the last year and more and we Appreciate it sooooooooo much ,, You just do what you do and be YOU !!!!! XXX love ya x x
I've missed you so much!! Absolutely love your chatty videos ❤ I use to have several plants 🪴 but in the spring of 2021 my youngest son joined the marines. Although I'm so proud of him, I wasn't ready for the empty nest or the stress of not having him home. I spiraled into sever depression. I unfortunately lost all but a very few very strong plants 🪴. They don't look so good but they are alive. But I'm more than content just to nurse these few plants back to health. Maybe someday I'll add to my collection again but for now I'm good. Oh and yes my depression is much better and my son is stationed in Japan for the next 3 years 🥴 But I'm ok. 🙂
Awww!! Thanks so much love! I miss you too!!! 🥰 Aww yes, that must be hard to deal with :( I'm about 8 years away from that still but I can imagine I'll need a distraction.
Good to see you! 🥰 I'm happy your new job is going well and you're enjoying it!! 🤗💚💚💚 Edit: I learned last year that I'm not a plant collector, but I adore having a good selection of plants that grow well and love me back 😁💚💚💚
@@PlantsPotsWhatNots Exactly! I still have a lot, I have a hard time letting go of them, but slowly I'll get my collection to the perfect size I'm sure 😁🥰
See I disagree with the philodendron not clinging. If they’re in the right environment- they will cling to anything. Planks are just easier because you don’t have to water them 24/7. Moss has to be wet to do what it needs to I feel like. Almost all my plants on wood, cling no issue. If you look at Caitlyn’s channel, her planks do phenomenal. Attaching is what you want to grow those larger leaves. I’ve had some that have poles that don’t attach, until I have it wood that it could sink into. But, of course we all have our own experiences with everything! I think both are a good option, whatever is best for you! ❤️ nice to see you back again!!! 🙌
I’ve often wondered what people were going to do with their plants once they grow up. Obviously they will never reach their full potential growing indoors but they still can get very very large.☃️❄️💚🙃
I don’t see a problem with having a lot of little plants, learning about/from them, see what you like, some will die, then when they are larger make choices based on the information you acquired. It seems an excellent process to me not something to avoid, prevent, think of negatively. I am a new plant person acquiring little young plants though so I’m biased lol
@@M_SC I have a lot of little plants that won’t get humongous. I’m talking about the monsteras and the philodendron that get huge with huge leaves on them. In my home there is only so much room. I would love a lot of the big leafed plants but you have to think about what happens when they get huge. All of my plants start out as a cutting or a very small plant because I can’t afford a larger one. We heat with wood so the smaller plants dry out soooo fast, that’s my only problem with smaller plants. ☃️❄️💚🙃
Just added my 29th Hoya last month and so happy that you admit you don’t like Hoyas! We can’t all “like” the same thing it’s not right to like something just because so and so on social media likes it. I love Hoyas, I don’t like alocasias or calathias. SO what? That’s my opinion. I enjoy your channel, I get great tips from you! I appreciate that you made the point about not watering those moss poles. I made some when it was popular to do so, and I never even realised I was supposed to water them, never did, then found out I was supposed to water them. Ooops. Oh well, won’t do it PIA. Will try some planks though because don’t want to ruin my walls because of a plant....😘
Hello, Good to see you! Yes I still like Hoya’s but I just want certain ones. Common ones are just fine. I just would like a couple more. Then I’m done adding to plants to my space.
Maybe you can zone your areas. 1 zone a day, watering, taking care of whatever a plants needs are. When your done with your zone however much or little time it takes at least you will be able to check on your plants once a week. Then move on to whatever else you have to do that day. Just a thought ☃️❄️💚🙃
I love ur honesty & style! Really couldn't care less if u like this plant genus & not that. I decide what I like, not what u like same as u decide what u like but not what ur friend likes. Let's face it; the world is just more interesting when we r all different, right?! Keep up the great work, love u & ur channel! 💗
One thing that has helped me with being overwhelmed with my plants, is to choose what stays vs. choosing what goes. Kind of a Marie Kondo, pull out from one area and put back my favorites for that area. Then on to the next area. I end up with a table of plants that either find new homes somewhere else or are offered to friends, etc. Choosing to make what I love look great on any given table/area was much easier than choosing what to let go. If I can't find it a home, then maybe I don't like it as much as I think. Or something else needs to go instead.
With all the plants I have though, it would take days, even just to treat the ones that I know are infected. I need a week off just to deal with Mealies. . 😂😂
Also for mealybugs!! I had them really bad on my variegated Hoya compacta, after like 10 regular treatments I decided to just put the alcohol (90% and not diluted) in a spray bottle and just spray it directly on the plant, let it sit for 30 seconds and then spray the plant with water. They were completely gone!!! And there was no damage from the alcohol on the plant at all. I would keep it away from a grow light till it dries. I now do that when I have thrips, spider mites, etc. and I’ve never had damage from not diluting it. It’s the fastest way to get rid of bugs and honestly I think the bug damage is scarier than the alcohol 😂😂 good luck! Mealies are monsters lol
I have a few Hoya. I have a few quirky ones like the Hoya retusa and a couple of kerrii. I don’t understand collecting all these Hoyas that look so similar and take forever to grow. I also don’t understand collection anthuriums and philodendron that also look so much alike that one does not even know the difference . To each his own!
I need a planterior designer to style my plants in my home. 🤣 I put rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle and just stray the whole plant to try and get rid of the mealies. The plants are already getting damaged by the mealies so a little rubbing alcohol is the least of their worries. 😅
Thank you for confirming my suspicion on watering moss poles. I did an experiment and watched with shifty eyes that the pothos I didn't water the pole on grew better than the "maintained" one. Also team hoya-meh.
Absolutely! I think it really depends on the plant, but I do have plants that are grabbing poles and putting their roots into poles that haven't been watered in years. When you think about it, the trees, rock, walls etc.. that they grow up in the wild aren't consistently wet, so it makes sense that plants in our home don't need that either.
the only way I finally got rid of mealy was by tossing the 2 problem plants.. one was a tiger jaw succulent (which i just found a new one, and got it after 2 years) and the other was an aeonium.. but giiiiiiirl.. im so sorry they are on your tropicals.. so many veins... so many leaves.... OMG.. im so sorry... ugggg.. mealy is the worst ive dealt with.. im terrified tho of the day i get thrips...
Hi Nikki. I live in Ontario not very far from Toronto. I'm guessing we have pretty much the same stores. Hopefully you have JoAnn's store around there. I bought Pure Castile Soap. I had trips and mealy bugs. They are gone after using it. One table spoon for one liter of water, sprayed with it and they are gone. I will send you picture of it
Great video. I use a mixture of water, alcohol and dawn dish soap in a spray bottle for mealybugs and also works great for scale. I remove the big ones with the q tip and then spray down the plant very well and let it sit before I clean it off. ps hi troy
Lol Hey Jackson!! Thanks for watching Hun! I want aware you were a plant guy!! That's amazing to hear! I love seeing younger generations getting into plants!! Very inspiring! 🥰
I'm with you on the Hoya. the ones I have I'll continue to grow ( if they don't die like most of the rest) but I will not be going out specifically to find a new one.
I’m great with the plants I have! I’m not interested in growing my collection. Instead, I’m in the curating by reduction mode rn and I’m feeling more than happy about that.
Lol right?! It's funny how we go through plant phases. Although...I will say, I've never super loved them, not as much as I love my big arouds anyway. Lol
I wanna put multiple plants in one pot (my Pothos 😬) as well but I fear root rot happening and possibly losing multiple plants instead of just one 😅 but the cactus bowl is 100% worth the pricks in the hands lol I did that with mine cause they just took up too much space
I've missed you! Great to hear your opinion about the moss poles, where I'm from I found only coco pole and waited for more than a month for besgrow to be available on amazon to order and start doing my own moss pole. Also, sorry for the hoya lovers, but I'm glad I finally found a youtuber that does not like hoyas, I never got their hype (bought just one for a friend) 😁
I took rubbing alcohol and mix it with water and put it in a spray bottle ans drench the plant.... I almost killed the poor plant... Lucky it bounced back and its in full bloom lol
I'm at the stage that I will not purchase cuttings or moss rooted baby plants. I will however purchase only mature plants with established roots. If I end up not having enough for that plant it wont be bought until I sell or trade some of my own. I love your chatty self and no to Hoyas? Hmm, lol. I dont like antheriums, they hate me, hahaha.
I’m side eying you about the Hoya comment 😂 Seriously though, very interesting about the moss pole info. I’ve always wondered how necessary the roots digging in is. Good to know. I trust your judgement because of your experience.
I just got to the part of your video about procrastination, difficulty stopping once you 'get in the groove', chronic disorganization and having to reorganize.... Have you considered looking into adult ADHD? It resonates so strongly with me and I've had this problem more or less since young, but it got worse in the last year. I'm currently looking into getting tested and diagnosed.
Ahh I was just going to suggest that it sounds like symptoms of ADHD! It sounds like she’s talking about time blindness and executive dysfunction. Worth looking into for sure!
Yay So good too see you!!!🥰💚 Thank you for passing along all you’ve learned last year. For sure don’t bother Anthirium leaves, one of mine touched a Hoya an jacked up a leaf. Don’t like Hoyas!?? I love them but finding it takes to much time an energy for them too grow big from small cuttings. 💚😍
I have never got the interest that some have for hoyas. To me they all look like expensive green leaves on stems. I enjoy plants with varigated colours in their leaves and some that flower but $8.oo will buy me a violet or a ivy that I can enjoy for years.
It is funny to me people get upset that others don't like Hoya. I love hoya but I don't care who doesn't. Don't buy them! Keep the prices down! LOL. More for me!!!
I learned I am not a Hoya person either. They get beautiful then I will either under water or over water or both and I am just over it. I am not a fan of them and they definitely are not a fan of me.
Lol I think sometimes it takes trying all the different plants to see what we really vibe with. I've finally come to the realization that I'm definitely a big leaf aroid fan! Lol
This is the first time I've ever commented on UA-cam and I'm nearly 36 haha 😂 but I just had to say that you remind me so much of me and if I didn't live in New Zealand I would want to be friends with you 😂 everything you said I can relate to especially the $ spending on plants in such a short amount of time 😱 you made me laugh so much! ❤️ Thanks for a great video!

@@PlantsPotsWhatNots Exactly! I still have a lot, I have a hard time letting go of them, but slowly I'll get my collection to the perfect size I'm sure 😁🥰
I really enjoyed this video..."I don't have to have them all!" That's how I feel about hoya, alocasia, and anthuriums"!
Lol As much as we want to....it's hard to restrain yourself sometimes. 😂

Yes!! I did a couple yesterday and loved it!!! I'm definitely going to do more! It's the best of both worlds!!
I’ve often wondered what people were going to do with their plants once they grow up. Obviously they will never reach their full potential growing indoors but they still can get very very large.☃️❄️💚🙃

I did this a few months ago actually. Lol I made a video. I ended up getting rid of about 15-20 plants. It was hard. 😂
I missed that one, I'll have to check it out!
I've been battling mealy bugs for months now. I going to try spraying with straight alcohol and castile peppermint soap.
Great video! Glad the job is going well. Never need to apologize, hun. Real life ALWAYS takes priority. 💙
You're too sweet! Thank you so much love!! 🥰🥰
So glad to see you back😊🤗
Thanks love!! So glad to be back!! 🥰
To get into tight spots to treat mealies, try a cheap child's paintbrush dipped in alcohol to crevices. It might reach better.🤞

@@PlantsPotsWhatNots definitely! I was diluting it too at first, those little fluffs are are evolving 😂
Lmao!!! Well, they'd better run cause I'm coming for them with my 100 proof!!! 😂😂🤪

I'm not the only person who doesn't care for hoyas!!! 😃
No ma'am! Lol I'm with ya!! I need the big leaves!!
@@PlantsPotsWhatNots Absolutely!! Love any plant with big leaves and will climb!
I have never got the interest that some have for hoyas. To me they all look like expensive green leaves on stems. I enjoy plants with varigated colours in their leaves and some that flower but $8.oo will buy me a violet or a ivy that I can enjoy for years.
It is funny to me people get upset that others don't like Hoya. I love hoya but I don't care who doesn't. Don't buy them! Keep the prices down! LOL. More for me!!!
Lol Right?! 😂😂
Hoya all look the same to me, I don't get it. There isn't any plant group that I collect!
❤️❤️👌🏾
🥰🥰
tell troy i said hi
I absolutely will!! ❤️
I learned I am not a Hoya person either. They get beautiful then I will either under water or over water or both and I am just over it. I am not a fan of them and they definitely are not a fan of me.
Lol I think sometimes it takes trying all the different plants to see what we really vibe with. I've finally come to the realization that I'm definitely a big leaf aroid fan! Lol
💚💚💚❤
...and maybe a little 💔 lol
Bahhaa... It was the hoyas, wasn't it? 😂
@@PlantsPotsWhatNots Yes lol
Bahhhaaa!! I couldn't lie to myself about it anymore. 😂
😢😢😢
