Dopamine! Same thing happens in the brain every time we see a plant we like, notice a new leaf developing, and every time we notice change in that new/unfurling leaf; same with water props and seeing roots. I got my therapist addicted to plants after explaining that to him when I saw he had a pothos. Within a month he began propping it per my instructions and gave rooted m, potted cuttings to each of his coworkers for Christmas last year! My plan is working 😈
As I am watching this video the PRO: Plant friends was on when my husband came home from work . He looked at me and said “Well did she ever make it into her house? “ I said “Who in the world are you talking about?” He responded with “ALICE” we both looked at each other than laughed.. Just just a quick update is needed!!!!
The plants look so beautiful and I agree with with your pros and cons. Plants were my salvation as were your videos when I was going through hard times❤
I grew a few monstera from seed back in 2017 and after that there was no turning back, I was hooked! I’ve got chronic fatigue syndrome, can’t work or do much outside the house these days, and plants was something I could do. Something I could master and accomplish. It does get very stressful sometimes as some of my plants are very uncommon, but for the most part, my plants give me some sort of purpose and let’s me be in awe of nature and plants. The resilience and sheer programming and will to live is astonishing
I'm also an introvert and I really don't like social events and such. But no one in my personal circle is a planty person. I met my planty friends at swaps. It's one of the best ways to meet new people that share a love for you hobby. Another idea is to join local plant clubs.
I wish I had plant friends like you do. I don’t have a car so I can’t go anywhere. I’m 65 I’m older than all of the people I see on instagram. Just once I’d like my sister to ask me if there was anything going on. Or ask me if I’ve got any new plants. Just once. My neighbor too. She comes over but doesn’t ask me anything. Just once.
I hope you don't mind me asking, how's it going and do you have any plant updates? 😊 Also maybe you could try asking them if you could tell them more about that and say that it makes you really happy
I am sorry you feel lonely in this, do you have instagram or can you make an account? Interacting with others and posting your plants no matter how humble they are is a great way to receive feedback. I’ve made plant friends there which I don’t have in real life. You also learn a lot and see that there are others who are also alone in the hobby but no lonely if I make myself clear. Hope you find a way to connect💚
@@Yoliplanting Thank you very much. I do have an Instagram account. And a Planty one. But I’d like physical plant friends. Part of the problem is I don’t have a car to get around. I can’t really take plants on the bus either. Thank you for caring enough to answer.
@@annaj3170 I just had a discussion with my sister when she acknowledged that my plants are making me happy. I’m going to purge some plants. I’ve got too many and you can’t really see the individual plants just a massive shelf of green. And she did offer to help me purge. She did seem to happy to help me. lol. Her idea of a houseplant is none but I bet she’s listen if I talked about them to her. Thank you for caring enough to respond to me.
This is the first time I have watched you on the tv while doing Planty chores. I watered plants and did some updates on the app. Now I’m digesting the lunch I also ate while watching. Usually it’s only Saturday and Sunday that I can do this. There is too many shows I like to watch on tv. I can watch on my phone during commercials. Love you❤️
I agree so much with the pros and cons you mentioned…it really is rewarding to have changes in your plants instead of just buying something and that’s it. The awe is never gone because there’s always something new…buuuut then there’s also the uncertainty of whether or not your plant will live once you buy it lmao this entire video has been so relatable and I love it haha 🙌🏽 The plant community got kinda toxic before COVID and I just left the plant life behind almost completely. Coming back now and seeing how amazing the community is has me sooo excited to meet new people and chat and learn etc…it’s been amazing 😍
I've been watching your videos for a decent 6 months now and only now have i realised that I hadn't subscribed! Love your personality, I feel you girl. Keep planting ❤ oh, and I love pudge too
No you were right the first time, thrips is totally a lifestyle and I’ve been doing gardening/plants for over a decade and I’m a general hydroponics STAN! Cheap, effective, works in every grow medium.
This has been a great visual podcast. Thank you for talking about all of it, especially the mental health side. My adhd is so bad it causes debilitating anxiety and depression. I can relate to sleeping and plants. They help me get out of bed, too. We moved here partly so I could have a greenhouse and then found out the HOA don’t allow them unless you get approval and it can’t be seen from the street side of your fence. Just like my chickens, they got me out of bed and outside every single day. This HOA won’t allow them 😭 yet we have an acre next to farmland and a freaking petting zoo. You can hear the mini cows, donkeys, and peacocks at any given time. I asked my psychiatrist if she could write me a RX for a greenhouse like an emotional support animal. 😂 And can take it to the HOA! Feels shitty to see the 3 MASSIVE greenhouses in the neighborhood that were grandfathered in when they created the bylaws 😠
I’m glad I found your channel, you have inspired me to move my plants into glass vessels/no drainage. It will be my summer project. I did 4 today, Micans, Florida Beauty, Hoya Sheperdii & Carnosa Compacta. They all were in 4” nursery pots. Wish me luck!
Love your videos-long and short. And I feel you on the houseplants creeping into your family’s life. I just bought a house where I’ll finally have a real plant room. I am so excited
Girl, you're so spot on about collecting and not being in the right headspace. I stream games and work in the game industry and I am really burned out on gaming in the evenings. Even though I know should make videos and edit and record but I am just not in the right headspace. And then I try to find other hobbies to keep myself occupied from guilty and then I get new plants and I'll be excited and yet the day after it's like well, I now have that plant too. Now what? It's kinda toxic but I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels that way! Your content is just so chill all the time, so relatable. Please keep the long videos coming!
I 💜 these long video’s! 🙌😂🙌 I caught a cold had to call off from a FA ✈️ because of catching a cold and my ears being congested/blocked a little, but watching this video gave me a spurt of energy to get up, cut up to propagate my adesonai, so i can make it look fuller. I was nervous to cut it up because I am a 1 1/2 year into pants. My plants do very well in a small bit of soil, pon, leca, pumice, zeolite, self-watering pots that you fill with water and it soaks up what it needs. My back starting aching I jumped back to bed, so I can focus on you. Thank You gf for all of your video’s. I have learned soo much.
I love the topics you talked about in this video today! I always love your long videos! But your short one are good too! I just love your videos! You're my favorite plant tuber!🌿💚
Thank you, Sherman (I hope you don't mind, I think it's super cute and weirdly fitting)! Your outlook and approach to the plant hobby is very refreshing. I have experienced most of those cons (still working on a couple) but no regrets because the pros have made me very happy! And yeah LOL, I saw the Benji "Is that a chicken" episode! 😂
I have a long distance plant friend who I absolutely adore and love! But I wish I had local plant friends. But I'm a bad friend. I say that no bashing myself but out of self realization. I am so busy with family and work I always push friends aside. So as much as I want plant friends... they don't want me lol I assure u that but I love the one plant friend I have so ill settle with that. As for your opinions. Love the. All. And ur plants and u r amazing and beautiful. Love ur videos Sherman. Keep doing what's best for u and we get amazing content from that. Ty!
10:40 Next time you visit NorCal, you should check out a few local plant shops as tortums have been popping up more frequent at around 50-70 buckeroonies!
You are just incredible! I think "mostly" the same 😉 but if I ever ignored a plant that I spent alot of money on I would not be ok with myself.. even while going through some tough health stuff it was my boys, doggies, kitty and plants that gave me purpose. And I'm loving the daisies on your cup 😁🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼 my hubby actually buys me GC from my local nursery and he's even asking questions and shows interest...bless him 💞 I have not had facebook since before covid.. I am wayyyyyy too old for the drama. Life's way too short to have my space filled with nonsense.
I am new to your channel and really appreciate how informative you are about various sp and your process on cleaning the plants as well helped me understand how to care better for my collection. I have been enjoying aroids, begonias, calatheas and Hoyas I loveeeeeee Hoyas. I also tried out your no drainage method for me personally it works great I learned how to better water my plants that way I have a hose sprayer thing and really seen the difference. 🙌💙✨
Hi bleu! Oh my gosh I’m so happy to hear that you’re getting some use out of this little channel! Thank you for giving me a shot and watching my videos- I appreciate you! 🩵🫶🏼
I do wish we don’t have to do with pests with our plants. I never had this issue with succulents and cacti which were my first plants. Now i am getting into Hoyas and have more plants i am getting fungus gnats. They are so annoying I totally agree cause they get everywhere. Second is mealy bugs which i got this last winter which was a nightmare i lost my Hoya Compacta which i loved and my Hoya Krimson Queen keeps coming back after so many treatments. The next gross one is scales touch wood i never had as they stick to your plant and i see people have to scraped them off I would not do it i would just throw the plant away. My back has been killing me from doing plants chore’s these days especially after repotting and cleaning up afterwards.
My husband and I are the opposite, I literally cannot see when the carpet needs vacuuming or the shelf needs dusting, and it drives my husband absolutely nuts. Though I admit, it might be in part because I never wear my contacts or glasses unless I'm driving so everything is kind of a soft blur 😬
Watching / listening a second time. I missed the part about human beings shafted w only two arms. That is very true, I can definitely appreciate one more arm
have you considered a timer based watering system? esp for vacations and stuff. Just wondering cos I've been looking at some and I'm sure there's more variety in US and Canada.
Girl, you need to buy neem meal. I promise you your gnat population will be half on the first watering. I could not believe it. You just make a tea out of it like mosquito bits. It doesn’t smell fabulous but it’s better than emulsifying the neem oil
Iv been waiting on the YVR Houseplant community web page waiting for approval for over a week . I see you are involved in this web site. Do you know how long it takes to be approved? Yes I am local . 😊
Sorry, we have hundreds of requests a week and we make sure to go through every profile thoroughly as to make sure everyone being added is a local and a legitimate profile (to screen out potential scammers) - I’ll touch base with our mod who handles approvals to see if he needs help getting through them
Owning a business myself, yes you can write off expenses but they are still expenses and it cuts into your earnings because you need to buy these things and you don’t necessarily get that money back, you get a deductible against your earnings so you’re declaring you’re earning less so you pay less taxes.
Your husband needs to learn to help more in the house, like I tell my husband we both work , we both live at the house so we both dirty things, so it’s right that we both contribute!!!!, marriage is a partnership!!
You’re right- marriage is 100% a partnership! He does a lot of housework actually, we split doing stuff like dishes and he does all the things I don’t want to do (like take out the trash) and I do things he doesn’t like to do like laundry. :) we make it work!
Who can explain the drama on PPUSA? People are constantly commenting on this drama, but I never see what it is! Lol. I'm just trying to buy plants from a live auction and everyone is talking about all of this stuff the whole time and I'm like, "what's happening?"
I actually am not in PPUSA anymore! Haven’t been for awhile since all that drama back in 2020? Most of the drama I see are actually in the enthusiasts groups (Monstera enthusiasts, anthurium enthusiasts, etc)- kind of sad because these groups used to be so helpful, where lots of reputable growers would share knowledge and their decades of experience and now it sometimes feels like PPUSA (without the sales)
@@unplantparenthood oh, agreed. I'm in the enthusiast groups as well, and it's ridiculous. There's like one guy who is actually helpful in the alocasia group and he's a d%ck. 😆
I really think men are not blind to dust and things.. they just aren’t raised to think that kind of mess is a reflection of their character like women are. Like if you show people a picture of a room and say it’s of a man’s room, they’re like oh that’s a nice room. But if you say it’s a woman’s room, they are a lot mote judgmental of it
Question for the group: when she mentioned using two different myco’s, is there a reason to use two at the same time or is she going back and forth between them? Just getting started with myco :)
I remember when I first started I would think of my plants while at work and would not wait to get off so I could mess with them. It was like a crush
REAL
I’m there!

You’re so kind 🥺 thank you for saying that 💚

Love your video as always
That cheap plants expensive pots, or expensive plants in Starbucks cups is so so true lol

What's in your soil mix? Looks yummy!😊
Thank you . You made my plant chores so much better

Love watching you while doing my plant chores. You’re the best. Where do you get your meteor size perlite? 😂
Pro: plant friends! That’s the best, I have zero lol. My planty friend started having babies and cares zero for the plants anymore 😢
My plant cart arrived a couple days ago. I still need to assemble it 😂🙌🏼
Watching / listening a second time. I missed the part about human beings shafted w only two arms. That is very true, I can definitely appreciate one more arm
Preferably an arm that can paint my right fingernails. Poor thing does so much work but always looks like shit after my manicures 😆
have you considered a timer based watering system? esp for vacations and stuff. Just wondering cos I've been looking at some and I'm sure there's more variety in US and Canada.
You are my favorite hoarder ❤
Girl! I thought you were gonna drink that myco water 🤣😳
Omg I forgot you used to be headless!! 😂
Did you call yourself Sherman?😂 I love your personality.
I’m allergic to bananas. The day I realized I could no longer eat or even taste banana bread was one of the most depressing days of my childhood.
I also wanted to ask. What innoculant do you use?
Right now I’m using great white and TPS billions :)
@@unplantparenthood Thank you! Appreciate the reply
Girl, you need to buy neem meal. I promise you your gnat population will be half on the first watering. I could not believe it. You just make a tea out of it like mosquito bits. It doesn’t smell fabulous but it’s better than emulsifying the neem oil
What about when the fungus gnats fly right up your nose and never come back out 😤😤😤
OMG I did not even know tortums could get that big
I HATE FUNGUS GNATS!! They are the most irritating bug I have ever dealt with 😂
I agree the first time I ever tried growing a corm I cried, i really thought I was a god too xDD

How much was it and where did you buy it?
Can you use fertilizer with cal mag?
Sending like for that bananna bread. :)
wouldn't it be easier to position & strap ur plants on the pole BEFORE putting the pole in the pot? 🫵
Aren’t you able to write off fertilizer and things like that on taxes as a business expense?

Like if you show people a picture of a room and say it’s of a man’s room, they’re like oh that’s a nice room. But if you say it’s a woman’s room, they are a lot mote judgmental of it
Nooooo! Don’t chop the tortum!!!!!
Question for the group: when she mentioned using two different myco’s, is there a reason to use two at the same time or is she going back and forth between them? Just getting started with myco :)
P.S. I also dread my camera and don’t know how to use it.
At least you figured out thumbnails lol
