The pot that had the green and white plant. It is under a grow light? I have something very similar but I have it in a plastic ziplock bag under growlight. It’s still in moss but it has its first leaf? Is it time to put in soil an and just under a grow light?
Why do people now say “Im-pore-int” instead of “important”? Before some troll responds with “who cares?”, obviously, I’m curious about it, so I care. Bring on the who cares. Thank you to anyone kind enough to answer my question.
I have a black velvet elephant ear that came back from the dead 🙃 but now it never grows more than 2 leaves! Once the second leaf starts growing I get the translucent looking spots and eventually the brown crispy edge with the yellow ring. I just leave it 🤷🏽♀️😂
my monstera is just barely starting to get the yellow rings and crispy brown edge and I got a copper fungicide, it definitely didn't work well with my last monstera so I'm hesitant to try it on that but I've been spraying it on the elephant ear to see what it does!
Thank you for this video. I have been trying to find what soil mix i need to go with for my monstera and there are so many different options and opinions out there. Thanks to you I no longer feel intimidated!
question for an expert; I've tortured so much a white mint it became all green, any hope I get back the mint when it's big? it's actually very sexy in green I must admit.
If you dig around a little, you can find him on Google. His name is in description. Looks like he is actively working in same field. Wish he still shared houseplant videos online
Watching in 2024 and your channel is still legendary. Thanks, Jimmy. My favorite Variegated Monstera channel. And definitely super original. One of the firsts! I got into collecting albos ever since I started watching you. And albos are still my favorite despite of the new variants that are coming out.
Not sure about that first one - I tend to find if a 'bottom' part of the leaf goes thin and like wet tissue paper, and still has the green like yours does, it's from edema (overwatering/inconsistent watering). It's still green initially, as though that part of the leaf his died suddenly, then it crisps up. Edema can also lead to fungal issues since it causes tissue damage. When I see that I reduce how much water I'm using per watering and make sure I'm watering consistently i.e. not letting it get more dry or stay more moist than usual between waterings. Also the shape of that leaf and the fact it's only giving you two at a time, have you tried CalMag?
This is my favorite obsession at the moment. I absolutely love warocqueanums!!!! I just switched all my Anthuriums and Alocasia’s from terracotta to the plastic net pot so they hold “more moisture”, which they do. Terracotta soaks up the moisture, which is why the roots stick to the sides of the pots to follow the moisture in the clay. Having a bowl of water underneath would be a good idea to keep the pot wet for the roots. You have a semi-hydro thing going on before PON came out. I see this video is 4 years old. 😂 Hope your queens are still doing fantastic. I have a third one coming tonight!
Plantastica is the best. I found her channel through Jimmy’s channel, and i think everyone should check her out. She doesn’t upload anymore, but she made lots of hilarious content that’s worth checking out. 💚🪴🌟✨
Try to submerge areal root into liquid hidroponic AB fertilizer. Your plant will be tremendously grow into the huge and healthy plant. Thanks me for the tips.
I plan to submit an application to the Guinness Book of World Records on your behalf for saying "Oh my god" the most times in one minute on RU-vid, among all US RU-vidrs.
There is no "aurea". The correct name for the gold-mottled clone is 'Marmorata' and always has been. Aurea is a modern social media error repeated over and over.
All I know is that when my mother was watering her devils ivy plant it was flourishing and nearly completely green. As soon as I took over, this started happening ☹️☹️ I don’t even get the leaves wet; I always water the soil to get the roots. I thought I was watering it too much, then I thought I was watering it too little. Smh. I hope I get the hang of it. We’ve had this particular plant for a very long while. Can’t ask for advice due to her passing. Thanks for all the info.
Came for the advice...of course now in 2024 post prices dipping... I wish the ones I have now are worth this then lol... super well draining is a biggie...almost killed my aurea version...also bought from 2 different suppliers...and this at least for me has been the lowest maintenance rare plant I have ever owned... from growth to propogatting
Humidifiers end up fucking up your electric devices and really they don’t change the humidity too much. Having a bath or leaving the hot water in the shower run for a bit does the same in a shorter time and doesn’t fuck your electronics... the more plants and moss poles you have in a space, the higher will be the humidity in the space. The humidity in my place is 65+ 70+ and I don’t use humidifiers anymore. They are a scam
NoID Mint has been imported in my area only last year but I got extremely lucky yesterday and found a rooted cutting for about $100 even though a 2-3 leaves plant is usually selling for $500 at the moment. It's been in TC for a while though, so the prices should be dropping soon...
I have OCD, ADHD, a dissociation disorder, and a whole lot of trauma that has lead to unhealthy eating habits. I have gotten really into plants about a year ago now, and have definitely spent a lot of money and time on my new hobby. I enjoy caring for plants a lot, but I stress about them too, because I have this desire to be perfect. Living things are not perfect, and it can cause me lots of stress when my plants aren't looking pristine. Luckily, I don't qualify for plant abuse, and this video has helped me not to worry about it.
HI PLANT FRIENDS I GOT THIS PLANT GIFTED WITH NO PRIOR KNOWLEGDE FROM A GARDENER FRIEND AND I AM A STARTER HELP I DONT WANT TO KILL IT WHY IS IT SO RARE AND EXPENSIVE AND DIFFICULT WHAT DO I NEED
I have watched so many videos about this fruit because I was so curious to know about this fruit and after watching this video I should say you are a very brave guy to eat and show...
brother it's actually better adding a automatic misting system with a water tank with a floating ball valve connected to the main water supply.. and you can just program it to mist every 1 hr for a minute or more.. you can just get a booster pump used for ro systems and diy it.. that's wat I do for my my terrarium shop where I have like 20 plus setups.... mosses ferns and other tropical plants
Any ideas on how they care for the plants? I recently visited "Plantas Plantas" in Osaka, in a store inside a shopping mall. I couldn't believe the quality of the plants, because they don't have enough light (or natural light) or humidity, but the plants look incredibly grown. Does anyone know how they do or achieve that?
Not sure if my monstera has it, but I watered it and normally the wilting of the leaves goes away. I took it out and repotted it yesterday into a slightly bigger pot, and got her out of the plastic nursery pot. The roots seemed ok. Didn’t smell bad. But just to be safe, I treated it with 1/3 parts hydrogen peroxide in water. The soil was dry before I did this. But today, I did notice some yellowing of some of the older leaves… I hope it’s not too late.
