Follow me as I journey through gardening and look for ways to incorporate tech where possible. Learn with me as I try and experiment new methods, or present new things I've learned about the wonderful world of tech and plants.
I currently have no desire to build a hydroponic set up but it is one of my favorite plant youtube sub categories to watch! I think the engineering aspect of it is just too much for me to get into currently.
Air layering just occurred to me,I have a few new shoots growing from my monstera and loads of aerial roots... but no new roots so I'm going to try this. I'm thinking in the wild the plant would probably lie across the ground and in contact with mossy branches and rotten leaves and put down loads of roots. Thanks for sharing!
Wow! Have been struggling to successfully prop my plant, will try this method this weekend as I have a lot of leafless stems! Great video that was informative, well produced, and direct to the point ♥️♥️♥️
I love watching stuff like this, it's very calming and I look forward to seeing the outcome! The scientist in me wishes you'd done some with and without paper but i'll let it slide ;)
Thats a unabomber shirt. In case people were curios. I just read the first paragraph and I can almost garuntee it's a Ted Kezinsky quote. I dont know how to spell Kezinsky so I spelled it phonetically.
I LOVE this. I just started doing semihydro with a ring of fire node. I'm looking forward to updates. I would be interested in buying some 3d printed components and experimenting with full hydro myself.
That is the actual shelf it's really nice. It has massive thick black plastic trays. In the initial setup video u out 40lbs worth of dumbells in the center and it held up perfectly
I enjoy indoor and outdoor hydroponics. I started with indoor gardening now Im trying my hand at outdoor gardening. So i do think you're right that people might explore planting in different ways.
I purchased some 4 ft barina grow lights and wondered if the ceiling anchors would be sufficient for hanging up in the ceiling? I did put 2 up with those winged toggles but don’t like the nickle size holes they make and wonder if that’s overkill?
I'm not sure how you are getting nickel sized holes. If you have instagram message me and we can figure something out. Techplant.official or by email Techplant.official@gmail.com
its been a little over a week since i filmed it. so far no mold but it might take a bit. the seeds have all sprouted and the leaves are kinda trapped in the papertowel, they are starting to push out the top so we shall see. im surprised they could sprout cuz my basement is like 60f
yes, you should see some vids come out over the next month, ive been having issues with other stuff that has sort of prevented me from progressing at a normal pace
The phenomenon of your Monstera plant having two sleeping eyes in the same leaf axil is a quite rare and interesting trait. Axillary buds are dormant buds located in the leaf axils and can develop into new branches or flowers. This phenomenon can be explained through a number of reasons as follows: Genetic mutations: As mentioned earlier, genetic mutations can lead to abnormal growth in plants. The appearance of two sleeping eyes in the same leaf axil may be due to a genetic mutation. Abnormal vegetative growth: Plants may grow abnormally due to changes in plant hormones or other vegetative factors. Environmental effects: Certain environmental conditions, such as sudden changes in light, humidity or nutrients, can stimulate plants to develop unusual characteristics. Species characteristics: Some plants can occasionally develop unusual characteristics without a specific cause and remain completely healthy. Having two sleeping eyes in the same leaf axil is not a concern if your plant is still growing healthily. This can be considered a special and rare trait of your Monstera plant. If your Monstera plant is perfectly healthy but develops a leaf with two identical leaves on the same leaf, it could be an interesting and unique phenomenon due to a few reasons: Natural Mutation: Sometimes, plants can develop interesting variations for no apparent reason. This mutation may be the result of a change in the genetic structure of the plant. Normal variations: Some Monstera species can develop special leaf variations that are still completely normal and do not affect the health of the plant. Environmental factors: Environmental conditions such as light, humidity, and nutrition can affect the shape and structure of plant leaves. If your plant continues to grow vigorously and shows no signs of disease or damage, you can rest assured that this is just a unique characteristic of your Monstera plant. You can consider it as a special feature, making your tree more unique. If you want to share or learn more about this phenomenon, you can take photos and join Monstera-loving communities or plant groups on social networks to receive more opinions and shares from others. same hobby.
I’m wondering if a little leaf movement might do them some good? I’ve heard even mild wind significantly increases certain auxins involved in supportive/structural cells and generally makes plants a bit sturdier.
I think there's so many wrong information here. Its when at night that plants produce their oxygen. during the day, its starch or sugar that the plants produce..
When plants produce their sugars are starch through photosynthesis oxygen is the byproduct. If you have a link or something that says otherwise I'd be happy to read it.
