    I left my zz plant at work during Covid. Eight MONTHS with no water or care and it was fine. A bit wrinkly but it plumped right back up after a few drinks. Now that is an easy plant.

    One of the ones that you called a Philodendron is really a Scindapsus. Probably a Scindapsus argyraeus. But they require similar care. Also you can argument low light with grow lights.

      The most important thing to remember about Ponytail Palms is that they are succulents and the soil needs to be bone dry all the way through before you water.

    I recently subscribed to your channel and started watching your videos. I really enjoy your calm and relaxed approach to plants and plant care. I've been growing plants for over 6 decades. I have 2 huge ponytail palms that I bought as tiny plants in 1977 and in 1986. My staghorn fern was 20 years old and a BEAST! Just last week, I divided it into 28 individual plants and gifted them to neighbors and folks in my community. So many of my plants have grown too big to handle at my age and my greenhouse is getting too cramped for all of them. I also divided my giant white bird of paradise, 2 pots of sansavieria zeylanicas, and one pot of sansavieria sayuris and gave all of them to very appreciative neighbors. I love my plants but I forget that they GROW! 😊

      2nd one is traditional snake plant type, one of stalks insist on having one leaf dry out from tip to bottom slowly till becoming a papyrus paper, then the second so on, and if i trim the dry tip it dries again , this is all in one stalk but other 3 stalks are fully ok

    Thank you for your video. I'm trying to build up a LED garden with no natual light and yet cost effective. I'm from Kolkata, India and my target is to attract all middle class families who love plants but unable to do so due to lack of bright/ medium natural light, or space or time to care and money. Thus my project is to build a low cost LED garden where people can have a piece of green inside their home anywhere and cost effective. Your videos are really informative but would be more helpful if you speak more on bright, medium and low lights, rather the LUX requirements for every plant. That will be really helpful. I've seen plants doing great in 150 - 175 LUX and that can actually solve a lot of issues with the plant. Ultimately it relates to photosynthesis process. Looking forward for such videos. Regards.

      Here is the information about the light requirements for indoor plants where you can see light measurements in LUX to get the right exposure for low light, medium light or bright light plants: bit.ly/3IseS6b

      Hi! Thank you for watching!
      Yes, temperature is a very important factor.
      In cool temperature soil dries out slower.
      In warm temperature soil dries out faster.
      Temperature also affects humidity levels.
      Plants should not be placed near heat or cold air exposure.

    • @Mycityplants
      @Mycityplants  Рік тому

      Hi! Thank you for watching 🌱
      Sand interferes with the soil drying process.
      I would not recommend to cover the soil with sand.
      If you wish to dress up the soil, use these PolyPebbles Polished Plastic Stones Planter Top Dressing www.silksareforever.com/vases-and-planters/planter-accessories/polypebbles-polished-plastic-stones-planter-top-dressing.html?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI3NWNveKA-QIVBYzICh1JQAJtEAQYASABEgKUhPD_BwE
      - do not completely cover the soil with these, keep the coverage VERY LOW density (make sure some space is open between rocks )

      Hi Shobha,
      Most of the time the overwatering is the reason why these plants decline.
      In my experience, Philodendrons like the soil to be dry (almost all the way through) before getting a drink.

      Hi! Please Watch the video about how to water plants in Lechuza planters: bit.ly/3bWSmRs
      For Snake plant - water/refill reservoir ONLY when the soil is bone dry all the way through.
      If using the Meter (tool I use in the video) , meter reading should be down to zone 1 + add 2-3 more weeks before watering.
