LMAO! Omg, your expressions when you say you have somewhere to be, but there you are, elbow deep in some soil-spillage situation is hilarious and we can all probably relate lol
I love the way you show that you are a real person as everyone has times when everything wants to happen at once. I’m glad you showed your leca experience as I have been having reservations about using it too, I have been trying its use but it just doesn’t seem the same as getting your hands in the dirt so as to speak 😀
I have a Plowmanii and a Gloriosum and can confirm the Plowmanii grows much much more slowly. My original single leaf Gloriosum is on its 4th leaf while my Plowmanii is only about to unfurl its second, and they’re both in the same lighting conditions. Great video as always, Sean!
I do really like LECA. Although I still love and use my chunky mixes. I have monsteras in LECA and they do well. I was so nervous at first. Kinda like I am with PON Right now. Just trying some in PON and no drainage system. We’ll see how it goes! Haha. Love to watch your channel.
I knew you could not get through a whole video with out propagating something! 🔪🪓✂️ I have spilled so much soil, so many times! Love how real your videos are! ❤️✌️🌱🌿🍃
In tropics the pest never really gone ... cause no winter no start or sterilize season .... that why here on tropics is hard when our plant already contaminate with pest ...
@@Foxy11123 yeah you make a good point. I’ve grown plants all around the world. Currently I live in the sub tropic. I’m constantly fighting natural pests, having to deal with Cyclones in the summer and I have to water everyday. I picked a friend up from the airport yesterday and the amount of Monstera deliciosa I passed on the way home in gardens, planted by the city council on the sides of the roads etc. must have been thousands. They are so common here no one wants them. Golden Pothos and just about every type of Syngonium podipyllum ( every cultivar gets ugly sun leaves ) grow in everyone’s gardens, parks. I couldn’t sell them if I tried. I think there should be a distinction between ‘houseplants’ and ‘greenhouse plants’. Plants should enhance your home. Too much humidity grows mould and mildew in your home. Grow tents are great if you have the space but they truly are ugly in the house. Currently I’m fighting a moth that has caterpillars that exclusively eat Aroids. It’s a nightmare.
Whoaaa good luck. They are a little bit more pest prone than other philodendrons. I forgot to mention in the video that I battled with spidermites on the plowmanii too
Hey Shawn, I’ve had a plowmanii for about one year! She is a starter plant. She had 1 small leaf, she lost that! The end of her one petiole, it’s looking like it’s turning into a Y. These must be so slow! Her petiole is only about 8” inches long. I’m going to repot into terra cotta, she’s in plastic now. She’s always been in soil. She looks like she hardly has grown at all? Any suggestions Shawn? Thanks you! Love your video! Mealy bugs screaming! LMBO
I would grow her in a 99% propagation tent, do not over water just keep it really humid. A tiny dash of nutrients, and good light. Theres low probability she will make it but I would give it my best 😀
Hi, I've followed your videos since I found your channel. Great contents 😀 just wondering, will soaking the roots in soap water damage the plant? I've always thought the soap might be absorbed by the roots and kill the plant
Neem oil, soap, water.... jot that down again. Thanks, Sean. 🙏 I have recently become a Leca person.😂 Used to grow in natural substrates but pests 😡 have been a major issue for my decision to change. I guess so long as the parent knows what they are doing to their babies, either medium is alright. ✌I have been changing all my plants to leca as they are mostly indoor plants and they have been growing great btw with self watering pots (that have those water level gauge for easy viewing of the amount of water in the outer pot). Reduces my daily routine of watering too. 😅 lastly, can see in the video that you are kindof flustered over some stuff and hope all probs had been resolved for u. 💪
I understand how you and many other people prefer the traditional way of planting through potting mix. The only reason I switched my plants to leca/semi-hydroponics is for sustainability! Semi hydro is costly but I tried to convert my plants little by little, not investing too much money at a time. Some plants actually do better in semi hydro than in soil so it’s worth giving it a try 👍🏻🫶🏻🌏
can you explain your soil composition. what you put in it? i cant maintain 3 leaf with out the previous turning yellow. my pot consist of charred rice husk (sekamp bakar) mixed in with a bit of organic compost and topped with peat moss on top of soil. it gets plenty of direct morning sun, its undercovered on the enclosed roof top. the room itself is warm and possibly low humidity. so yeah i am trying to figure out what is the ideal conditions. cheers.
Hi Sean, is it normal for plowmanii leaves to be slightly yellowing on the edges? I haven’t checked the roots but I guess it’s healthy because it just sprouted a new baby leaf. Thank you!
Hi Sean, my plowmanii was attacked by thrips, and I had to cut down its beautiful big leaves from 5 down to a quarter (not even one complete leaf because the infestation was so bad), now after almost two months, it got a new leaf bud emerging from the soil, and has grown about 10 cm long, but I don’t see any improvement on it so far within this week, it just seemed like it stuck and stop growing, have you encounter this kind of problem before? Many thanks in advance!
Hello the new growth point can take a very long time to grow. This plant is actually very slow growing so do give it some time. And yes its more pest prone than other Philodendrons I find.
@@onlyplants thanks Sean! That's relieving to know, I was worried if something's rotting underneath so I've repotted it into a smaller terracota pot and changed the planting medium, arghhhhh I just hope that didn't cause the growth point to cease growing aka failed to grow due to the stress
@@onlyplants LECA STRESS me out TOO! or maybe I did it halfheartedly .... tried it with 2 plants ... didnt really work (no patience!) gave up and went back to peat and now trying using only perlite media (with 1 mini monstera) to propagate
Lol I always hear mealy bugs screaming when I spray my plants with neem oil. Usually in a very high pitched cry. I was laughing when I saw that there was dirt in the leca pot - couldn't have aimed it any better. Thank you for posting more videos lately
Hello. My question has nothing to do with the Philodentron Plowmanii, but I couldn't find a video of yours about Dumb Cane. I've had mine for a year, and it's doing good, new leaves keep coming out, but... they all curl down. I've tried under watering, over watering, top and bottom watering, removing top soil and putting a fresh one. Nothing works, and I don't see any bugs or pest. Do you know what it could be? It just doesn't look like all the other Dumb Canes from other videos :(
Hello Im not an expert at dieffenbachias but theres a multitude of possibilities: pests, malnutrition, root-bound, lack of sunlight... hope you can figure it out soon 😌 they are have been quite easy care on my end although the stems love to rot here so i keep propagating it!
Hello I was hacked last night. I am still waiting to see if IG will get back to me and restore the account. Thank you so much for letting me know and I will update you guys soon!
Hello thank you for the video on the plowman😊. Recently acquired one small size. Please share your medium fro your🤔 Thank you for inspirational about soul ver’s hydroponics I appreciate what u said about pest and natural environment 😀 Gave me a what to do it better attitude now. Take care new subbie💕
Hi Sean. I just propagated my plowmanii and now one of the leaf is starting to become yellow and the stems are weak so i need to put a pole for supporting them. What should i do? The other leaves look droopy too. Please help. Thanks
That could be low light or overwatering (or both). Could also be a sign of root rot... DM me with pics and also a description of how its been cared for?
Hello Shawn, one of my plants is also suffering the same fate as your P. plowmanii did, will furadan be sufficient enough to kill the pests in the soil?
ENVY! such gorgeous plants. When I asked if you could recommend some places, I meant nurseries over there thst you frequent who also sell online. We have no.idea where to begin.
You may keep transfered plant in a vase with water and wait till it grow some new roots and remove soil roots before planting into leca. Or root cuting in leca- it is much easier:)
eversince i bump into your channel, i always search for a video of a certain plant before i bought them, wish me luck with my new plowmanii round form arriving tomorrow...i’m scared to kill pretty things 🥲
Funny, my Gloriosum is a slow grower, but my Plowmanii is growing super fast. Do you know how many forms of Plowmanii are out there? I have seen many versions of Plowmanii pictures, but I could not really sum it up from what the internet has so far. Thanks for the video. :-)
Hello, interesting how different plant reacts to different environments. Maybe my plant was unhealthy due to pests to begin with... ive only seen dark form of plowmanii
Im watching this again and the part where you were losing it cuz you kept knocking everything over reminded me of myself two days ago. I knocked TWO plants onto the ground and I got pissed off and threw one of my jewel orchids away (wanted to get rid of it and think it has pests anyway) I was bout to rage quit LOL. and yea, no leca for me I rather have the full experience as a plant custodian and give it the natural substrates
I really glad to see your channel. A lot of new knowledge i got from all of your video. But why i still can’t find your instagram account? Thank you and keep success with your channel👍
Hi Shawn! Nice video, just wanted to check something with you. Ain't ants a big part for Philodendrons and their life? I mean I once read that there is a symbiotic relationship between ants and philos. The plants gets protection against other insects due to the aggressive nature of ants as well as gaininig nutrients from ant nests, while ants get to profit from nectars from the plant (not necessarily from the flowers but also the extrafloral nectaries).
Yes you are right I mentioned extrafloral nectaries a while back. Not much is understood about this relationship but not all philodendrons do that. Presence of ants and mealy bugs are a totally different case though. Ants and mealy bugs also have symbiotic relationship and the mealy bugs eat the plant while the ants eat their poop. Also on plants with extrafloral nectaries you will see the spots on leaves and stems where they release sugars for the ants 😌
Love the video, Sean! I am Indonesian plant lover lives in Brunei Unfortunately we dont get a lot of variety of plants here since we r count on imports.
I use leca and small seramis as amendments in my soil mixes for orchids, hoyas and other epiphytes to make it chunkier. Like 1/3 leca, 1/3 orchid bark and 1/3 general potting mix. I do like our leca/semi-hydro too, but clumsy as I am, I'm somewhat scared to bump into the pot and uproot my plants when they are are just in leca. Leca is a lot less firm until the are a lot of roots.
Yesss. I feel like leca would disturb the root system if the plant is moved. Also I will have to wash out plants in leca every few months cuz it gets moldy down there
Hahaha, "I'm a nerd" now that too I can relate, at least that's what my children are calling me🙂 nice upload Sean and oh how I love it when you say hellooo to your babies😊
@@onlyplants Looks like you have really lovely terracotta pots. Not so plentiful where I live (Vancouver, Canada) plus they're so heavy to drag home on buses. BTW, get a real kick out of your sense or humour and real-ness. Best to you!
Hello I just released a video explaining my ig account was hacked. Its unlikely they will be able to restore it but Im waiting if IG will respond to me.
Yo, I bought like 10 kilos of Leca because I saw you use it in one of your videos. LOL! But I never used it on its own. I just add it on my potting mix together with coco chunks, perlite, Orchid bark etc. to make my soil mix extra airy, my philodendrons and monstera seem to like it. Maybe you should do it too, don't waste the balls. 😂👌🏼
I don't get lecca either. Even pon makes me nervous. I'm a chunky soil girl myself and strictly sphagnum m zoss to propagate. I've had almost 100% success with that! Don't fit it if it ain't broke!
This is the most unprofessional video about plants on youtube I've watched so far! Random stuff gets knocked down! Soil on top of lecas! Cluttering pots on the foreground blocking the view. Referring to some people as Lecas. But, I like it. Hehe.
Ants 😭😦😱 I had them too in my onions.Which is surprising you think they wouldn't like the smell.They carrying there babies too. I had to evict everybody lol.
Hello I was hacked last night. I am still waiting to see if IG will get back to me and restore the account. Thank you so much for letting me know and I will update you guys soon!
Noooooo!!!! Not the lekka agaiiinnnnnn!!! You need rest and relaxation! Too much stress for you is too much stress for the plants. Not good. Take some time for yourself, you deserve it.

I have been into leca lately but only for certain species. I will be sharing it soon!
“I can hear the mealy bugs screaming” 💀 rip me 😂
Love your commentary 😂 beautiful plants & your videos are so relaxing & light hearted even when you are frustrated. Keep up the great work 🖤🖤

First sentence: "I'm from Jakarta, and I'll tell you how to make your houseplants happy". Step one, move to the tropics lol

Haha I dont have a cameraman 😅
Hey Sean, hope you’re doing well! I was wondering where your Instagram page went?
Hello I just released a video explaining my ig account was hacked. Its unlikely they will be able to restore it but Im waiting if IG will respond to me.
Honestly, tried leca out and didn't really worked out for me. Not going to look back.
I never looked back with Leca either
ooft those corrigations
🤤 I know right...
Yo, I bought like 10 kilos of Leca because I saw you use it in one of your videos. LOL! But I never used it on its own. I just add it on my potting mix together with coco chunks, perlite, Orchid bark etc. to make my soil mix extra airy, my philodendrons and monstera seem to like it. Maybe you should do it too, don't waste the balls. 😂👌🏼
Lol yes I use it in my hoyas and aroids. And they can be used over and over again.
I don't get lecca either. Even pon makes me nervous. I'm a chunky soil girl myself and strictly sphagnum m zoss to propagate. I've had almost 100% success with that! Don't fit it if it ain't broke!
High five haha
This is the most unprofessional video about plants on youtube I've watched so far!
Random stuff gets knocked down!
Soil on top of lecas!
Cluttering pots on the foreground blocking the view.
Referring to some people as Lecas.
But, I like it. Hehe.
🙈🙈
if you had to choose..philodendron plow or mamei
Plowmanii hands down
@@onlyplants thanks! does plow have white specs on lleaves?
i want one sooo bad
I almost forgot
She has no spikes…on her petioles yet either?
👋 Leca lover here! But I won’t take it personally that you don’t like it 😉
I have a few plants in clear jars and leca now and Im reaaaaally digging the look. With roots all over the jar.
Knp neem oil bukannya antracol?
Antracol is chemical fungicide, dia tidak bunuh hama setau aku 😀
@@onlyplants ooooooh i see , mks Sean
lol I put SO much neem oil when I do my spray
Omggg haha hope the plants can withstand it
Ants 😭😦😱 I had them too in my onions.Which is surprising you think they wouldn't like the smell.They carrying there babies too. I had to evict everybody lol.
Awwww Use ant bait products they really help
@@onlyplants Trust me I did that.They so smart they left me note you thought I was going in there lol. I got under control.
When he put that plant on the side and grabbed the pot to look at the roots... 👁👄👁💦
What happened to ur instagram account?
Hello I was hacked last night. I am still waiting to see if IG will get back to me and restore the account. Thank you so much for letting me know and I will update you guys soon!
@@onlyplants hopefully i can be recovered soon!
Noooooo!!!! Not the lekka agaiiinnnnnn!!! You need rest and relaxation! Too much stress for you is too much stress for the plants. Not good. Take some time for yourself, you deserve it.
