Your 2022 goals video was the first ever video of yours I ever saw!! I immediately fell in love with your videos and throughout the year, I went back and watched all of your videos. You're the only UA-camr I genuinely love
Love your support and totally get it, this video is actually my second and in the beginning she said grab a drink and get comfy or something along these lines and I just was like; damn, how you make me fall in love with you like that, just felt welcome and accepted! But already subscribed on the first video, love the energy keep it up!
Thank you so much for being a goal oriented channel!! There are very few plant channels that have plenty of content on care,growth, and goals. I’m on a plant ban currently and your content inspires me to nurture my current babies to their best potential 💚 Love your videos and I get so excited to see a new one!
I never made any goals for2022. Never thought of it, never heard of anyone doing it. I won’t be making any goals for 2023 except to keep them alive and thriving. To those only surviving I need to find a way to make them thrive.
Hey Fern, I would reroot the Alocasia Blacl Velvet, once it unfurled the new leaf. It doesnt look like it has enough roots. I had a very full Black Velvet and then one Winter it went dorment and then Never came back. So I unpotted it and noticed most roots where gone. New soil, smaler Pott and Its now taking off again. 👌🏻 Alsocasias are such rooty planst, so if they dont do well, Its mostly not a health big root System and also because of that not enough nutrionts for the plant. Hope you can grow her better this years After a fresh start 🥳
Oh wow, this just confirmed my concerns about my moms alocasia. She absolutely LOVES her zebrinas (5 whole plants in our living room hahaha), but many are dropping and losing leaves. I noticed that the pots look rather large, I'll have to report this to her! :D
The black velvet situation… 😂😂 Maybe she thought “ oh gosh I’ll go to the trash just have to show some life sign” 😂 Same here, she is also named “ Little queen” very good nickname for her no?
Progress videos are the best! I love seeing how much your albo, micans, splendid, and linearis have grown. Perfect way to start my grey, January PNW day. I spent 2022 growing several single vine plants long so I could chop and prop them for fuller plants, including Syng chiapense, Syng albo, and Phil mayoi. 2023 will be about growing out those fuller pots 🪴
I know you have tried Sydney plant guy method for moss poles but honestly, I made poles following his instructions and I water them once a week with an upturned bottle with holes in the lid from the top of the pole. The moss does dry out but I take a minute to moisten it then leave the upturned bottle on the top till it is empty. I haven't had a problem so far and my plants have grown well from spring to autumn in the UK so far. I will see what winter brings but so far watering has been a once a week little job.
A goal I have is to keep them alive and right now stop a mealy outbreak. I’ve only found two plants with Rallies but I’m Treating all other plants with beam oil and soap plus systemic. I lamp hoping it’s only two plants.
I also think it’s fun for people collecting plants to see where your plants can get with learning and benign patient. That’s why I love getting small plants/cuttings. Then I get the satisfaction of growing them myself and having a bigger/fuller plant
Love the idea of goals for specific plants or genre rather than general goals like better care, purging the unfavorite etc..thanks for the inspiration. I'm a big fan.
My 2023 plant goals are to chop and prop my splendid, see my albo grow enough to put it on a pole, and it would be absolutely amazing to see any of my Hoyas bloom although unlikely since I only got them this past year. Feeing hopefully about my first two goals tho! 😊 love seeing your plant progress!!
Love this video! I wouldn’t be too cut that the queen hasn’t bloomed, I’ve had mine for 3 years and it’s only just bloomed. Think it’s just a slow bloomer haha
My philodendron micans was one of the first plants I got in my collection and it’s still one of my favorites!! I pet it all the time and it grows like a weed, we have a great thing going🥰
Glad to see your feeling and looking great. Really enjoyed this well put together video. Love your Brazil, mine is growing up the macramé hanger it's in but the leaves aren't getting big, but it's looking real pretty.
Yeah, black velvet likes to be ignored! In winter, I keep it in a bright east window and water it every 2-3 weeks a little bit when it feels dry in the top inch or 2 of soil, and it’s still looking good with 3 big leaves!
Thank you for sharing your experience. So, you would suggest to keep this plant more on the dry side ? I heard, that they need quite some water, when they pull out a new leaf. Maybe it's something in between... 🪴
My Black Velvet is in the south facing window. When I got it,it died back. Then I put it in the window and it now has three leaves and working on the 4th. I was so surprised!!
Regarding the black velvet: It loves a lot of light, like almost south window exposure! And pon is totally the way to go. You'll get there! :) Thanks for the great video!
I agree it is fun to improve plan performance, and see the results. It can help you cut back on just making new purchases. I think it is important to continue to make some changes to your collection in order to keep it interesting, and to keep going with the hobby.
Your Hoya Crimson Queen is absolutely gorgeous, even with no blooms❤🪴❤ Sounds weird, but some plants I get the urge to hug🤗💚🤗 This would definitely be one of them!!!
My goal is to get the milsbo I got for Christmas all set up and put together in an aesthetically pleasing way. Which in turn will clear off my CLUTTERED tables that make me neglect the plants in the back and then get those neglected plants thriving again!! ❤
Best thing I did when I set mine up was truly research weather proofing.. and SEAL THE METAL U CUT FOR THE CORD HOLE. I know u didn’t ask, but I ended up Ripping mine apart and doing it properly a month after I built it
@@jacquelinedaniels87 I was gonna put a grommet in it that just has a X cut in it to push the cords through. It won’t be a wide open hole. 1” wide too. Do you think that’s ok?
Hey Fern, alot of really exciting updates here. Just a pointer on Alocasias. They are my favourite genus and I have spent a lot of time trying to get all of mine out of the x2 leaf club (apart from the silver dragon that just never seems to drop leaves) and they number one most important thing I have found is fertiliser. I know you fertilise every time you water but I would double if not triple it in the warmer months. I have never found an issue to over fertilising an Alocasia. Although, as soon as the weather starts to cool I have always found it very hard to push past the 1-2 leaf club even in milsbo cabinet conditions. I hope this helps because they are such beautiful plants with stunning foliage!
In think I had some weird luck because I got one hoya cutting (krohniana splash I think) last spring and it bloomed sometimes in august or september! 😳 I have heard hoyas usually bloom only when they’re really old. hopefully you get blooms soon!
You are absolutely beautiful, but my personal preference is your current hair style. Please keep sending out these videos and I hope you have a wonderful 2023! ❤
Happy New Year, Fern!🎉 Plants are looking spectacular, as always! You take such good care of them. I'm absolutely in love with your Philodendron Brazil omgggg!!! Gorgeous!😍💖💕
my planty goal for the year is growing my philodendron glorious up the full 2 meters of moss pole that i can have, another is getting a philodendron el choco red growing on a pole
I’ve been seeing a lot of people have really good results with Alocasia in semi-hydro. I just switched mine to this set up… perhaps that could help your cute black velvet guys??
Hi Fern! Haha you know what, I have been hearing people saying that a black velvet gets a lot sturdier once experienced draught haha so maybe this year is the start of your good relationship with her🤣 good luck! Love from the Philippines!😘😘
I do have the same goal for my brasil, It continues to climb but tiny leaves , I should really fertilize her more 🤔 For the micans , this plant is so pretty, she clearly doesn’t have enough love in the community! I am IN LOVE with your anthurium tee, where did you get it 😍?
I really love watching your videi maam , beacuse i am also a plant lover too ! Fully watch up to the end including ads and leave all the best for you ok ? See you ...
Happy New Year. My goals for 2023 is to start my plants up moss poles and to buy less plants and take better care of the plants I have. I’ve ordered some imported plants but need to still pay for them. Does that count for 2022 or 2023 lol. Love your videos. Keep them coming. Could watch your all day
Idk how legit my grow lights are but on them they have a setting that promotes flowering. So maybe that would work for your Hoya krimson. It’s the best seller I think
Put a cup with a small ass hole in the bottom on top of your mosspoles and tape the cup to the pole after pushing it into the moss and then u can just fill the cup when they get dry
Hey Fern! I loved this goals update videos. I was wondering what device do you use to record your videos? I really like the quality of your videos and how the plants look when you do closeups.
Great video, thanks for sharing. You have achieved almost all of your goals! That is great, well done! I love your hoya Linearis! I have a small pot and do cuttings when I have a long enough vine, and mine is in leca. What media are you using for yours?
It was in the cabinet for a short time when it was really small, but it’s mostly lived in just regular room conditions! It’s one of my toughest philo’s :)

Also on a no-buy-phase (for the first half of 2023) and feel you! Very much enjoying the content
I never made any goals for2022. Never thought of it, never heard of anyone doing it. I won’t be making any goals for 2023 except to keep them alive and thriving. To those only surviving I need to find a way to make them thrive.
I actually could never get my black velvet to look good, even in my cabinet. So I finally just bought a new one and it grows so much better for me!
That totally happens sometimes - some plants are just flops

C'mon Queen, give us a bloom 😉😁

I'm liking this approach too...I'm going to rethink my goals

All of your Albo look good no brown edges nothing.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you :)
Thanks for sharing your progress this year. It has been so fun to watch you and your plants (and olive) grow 🥰🥰
Thanks so much! 😊
GR💚WING G💚ALS... L💚VE THE TH💚UGHT 🟢F THAT!!!
Glad to see your feeling and looking great. Really enjoyed this well put together video. Love your Brazil, mine is growing up the macramé hanger it's in but the leaves aren't getting big, but it's looking real pretty.
This is my first year doing planty goals and I'm super excited to see how it goes!! Love this idea!!
Ahh that is awesome! Have fun with it :)

Ahh yes, they love light! That is awesome that it came back for you :)
Such a great idea to set goals as I’m sure there is more growth in my plants that I don’t notice day to day. ❤
Fun recap! I ❤ micans so much too!! I have also threatened several plants with the compost bin and they spring back to life.
Regarding the black velvet: It loves a lot of light, like almost south window exposure! And pon is totally the way to go. You'll get there! :) Thanks for the great video!
i was stuck at 1-2 leaves for months and now i have 5 leaves. one dropping and 2 blooms starting. i simply gave it more water and lots of light.
You are beautiful and smart! Hope you feel better soon. 🥰🪴
I agree it is fun to improve plan performance, and see the results. It can help you cut back on just making new purchases. I think it is important to continue to make some changes to your collection in order to keep it interesting, and to keep going with the hobby.

Micans is my favorite plant of all time! I agree with your comments, it's just as beautiful as other velvet plants
I’ve given up on alocasia black velvet. I can grow most others, but I’ve never been successful with black velvet and it makes me so sad😭
I’m in the 2 leaf black velvet club, too. No shame!
My goal is to get the milsbo I got for Christmas all set up and put together in an aesthetically pleasing way. Which in turn will clear off my CLUTTERED tables that make me neglect the plants in the back and then get those neglected plants thriving again!! ❤

Happy new year! Thank you 💓
So hoping you’re feeling better soon.
I came over from IG.
You’re plants are doing so well 🥰
Thank you so much Vicky ❤️❤️
Love this video! Yes, I have goals for my Mican to get bigger leaves.
In think I had some weird luck because I got one hoya cutting (krohniana splash I think) last spring and it bloomed sometimes in august or september! 😳 I have heard hoyas usually bloom only when they’re really old. hopefully you get blooms soon!
You are absolutely beautiful, but my personal preference is your current hair style. Please keep sending out these videos and I hope you have a wonderful 2023! ❤
You're Beautiful Fern...never forget that! Inside and out. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year! Here's to a humble 2023
Maybe your black velevet would do better in the cabinet. My one started growing so fast when I gave it more humidity. 🙂
Let’s just talk about hair goals in addition to plant goals your hair Fern has grown so much
I just bought a Krimson Queen Hoya last week!! So excited for it. Yours is absolutely stunning!
Setting planty goals now brb
Like always, never get tire of your videos they amazing and all info that you provide is school for me, than you so much, love you 🍃🍀🌺
This made me make a goal list and a very strict one I have to follow this year.
Yesss 👏 enjoy the journey of reaching your goals :)
Goal for 2023 will be propagating my anthurium! I am so scared to cut them but I think this is the year! Love ya Fern!
Good to see you again 🤩 Sending love from Germany 💚🪴🏞️
Is great to see how well these plants have done!
💚🌱☘️🌵💚
Look at that 102k!!!! Happy new year Fern 🌿💚
Happy new year!!
Thank you so much. This is an amazing video. I have made my plant goals for 2023. Lots of love to you😍
Oooh I need to try some air layering this year. Great tip on maintaining leaf size!! I would have just chopped and propped 😝😝 Thanks queen 🤍👑
Of course girl 💖🥰
So many gorgeous plants in this video! I like this idea, I think I'll dream up some goals for myself this year.
So beautiful plants I'm so impressed with how they grow 😍 and yes I think that's my problem with the moss pole let them dry out a lot🥺😫.
i have been watching your videos for 3 years now!! to another beautiful year
Awe that is sooo cool! So long! Thank you for being here 💚
Happy New Year, Fern!🎉 Plants are looking spectacular, as always! You take such good care of them. I'm absolutely in love with your Philodendron Brazil omgggg!!! Gorgeous!😍💖💕
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I’ve been seeing a lot of people have really good results with Alocasia in semi-hydro. I just switched mine to this set up… perhaps that could help your cute black velvet guys??
I would love if my monstera albo would start growing! It has only put out 1 leaf in months. Yours looks amazing!
Hi Fern! Haha you know what, I have been hearing people saying that a black velvet gets a lot sturdier once experienced draught haha so maybe this year is the start of your good relationship with her🤣 good luck! Love from the Philippines!😘😘
Interesting! I hope so hahah. Thank you.
Have you tried heat mats for rooting? I keep one in my milsbo 🙃
I do have the same goal for my brasil, It continues to climb but tiny leaves , I should really fertilize her more 🤔 For the micans , this plant is so pretty, she clearly doesn’t have enough love in the community! I am IN LOVE with your anthurium tee, where did you get it 😍?

Happy new year Fern ❤ love love love your videos and I’m so excited for everything you have in store for 2023!
Thank you so much! Happy new year 💖
I got the clear plastic moss poles because of you 😅 haven’t tried them out yet but I know I’ll like them better than diy poles lol
Your skin is glowing! Also absolutely love your videos! X
I have a screen shot of you in that old video i was trying to find someone local to do my nails that way! Never found it lol.
that T-shirt 🖤🖤🖤
Wow! You're Splendid grew so much! 😍
Right!!
I cannot believe how quickly your splendid grew, and it looks so stunning as well! How? What?? ? Tell me your secret
came for the title stayed for them eyes lol
Idk how legit my grow lights are but on them they have a setting that promotes flowering. So maybe that would work for your Hoya krimson. It’s the best seller I think
Ohh yes good idea! Mine have that setting too I think 👀
Wow your Brazil is beautiful!!!
Thank you! 😃
Put a cup with a small ass hole in the bottom on top of your mosspoles and tape the cup to the pole after pushing it into the moss and then u can just fill the cup when they get dry
Loved this video, so fun to see the progress updates on all your goals!
Thank you Maddie 🥰
Omg new vid, yesss Queen!
Loving life rn
Dang you did so so good on your goals!
Happy New Year to you and Olive. Hope you had a wonderful holiday ❤️
It was so much fun watching and chatting with you fern!!🌿

Happy new year! I can't wait to see what your 2023 goals are!
Thank you Emma 💚
I love your t-shirt 😂
You did great! Congrats 🥰
Thank you Lyne ❤️
Hey Fern! I loved this goals update videos. I was wondering what device do you use to record your videos? I really like the quality of your videos and how the plants look when you do closeups.
Thank you! I film on the Sony ZV-1 :)
Happy New Year🎉🥳
Also I really love your shirt!!!
Happy New year. 👍👍😊😊❤️❤️🌲🌴🌳🌵
Dam everyone is doing so well Fern Happy New Year
Happy New Year!!
I’ve seen people using watering orbs or cut up plastic water bottles for their moss poles to help keep them moist. Have you tried that yet?
The camera quality is so good and enhancing the beauty of the plants!!! What camera are you using?!
Thank you! Sony ZV-1 :)
Was really great thanks!!!
That antherium t-shirt, though!!! Where where where do I get that bad ass shirt!!!???

Great video, thanks for sharing. You have achieved almost all of your goals! That is great, well done! I love your hoya Linearis! I have a small pot and do cuttings when I have a long enough vine, and mine is in leca. What media are you using for yours?
I want a brasil it’s stunning
They are so gorgeous! And easy :)
Someone I watched earlier today was having trouble with their black velvet alocasia. Maybe it’s just a difficult plant.
Omg how on earth did you grow your P. Splendid that much? That's amazing! Was it in your cabinet?
It was in the cabinet for a short time when it was really small, but it’s mostly lived in just regular room conditions! It’s one of my toughest philo’s :)
Wow, you did a fabulous job!
With alocasia try semihydro
Love u Aly
