Pour Vinegar on your doorsteps or were ants are entering at. Simple and easy and TOTALLY works!😊

I used some vinegar to clean my window and haven’t seen them come back since. I moved the Hoya away too 😂

I need to stop watching you! (I won't lmao) I always run immediately to Mercari or Etsy to buy plants that you have in your collection! But you've also inspired me to get out of my comfort zone and get into alocasias again, as I've had such rotten luck with them in the past!! Def feel more experienced and have the proper tools to deal with them now. Rip my wallet tho. 😂😭

Its really comforting seeing you so calm about the plants that are now just stumps and were struggling. I've been in a full panic about one of my syngonium that have lost all their leaves and are now just a stump, so its nice to know I'm not alone in the planty struggle 💚

I have a Pink Splash Syngonium that is almost dead and idk why. Bc I have a regular generic Syngonium in a 14" pot that is thriving and they both are in the same light (west side) and get the same care. I would love for my Pink Splash to thrive, any advice is greatly appreciated. I live in zone 7b US

Def let us know if you decide to sell any props! I’d absolutely want to buy a good bit of them! I like starting my new plants from babies because I find that when I get them from big box stores, they are extremely over watered and die back before I can get them healthy from the being in a peat based soil. Soil like that is fine for hot/dry climates like Florida, be here in New Orleans, it’s wayyy to humid and it stays wet for wayyyy toooooo long. And you have sooo many of my wishlist plants!

Hi Melissa! Love plant updates ❤ I am so puzzled as to what got all your Alocasias. It just seems so weird that most of them were affected. Do you think it really was the gloves? I really hope they all bounce back to their former glory soon - I’m sure they will with your care 💕

@plantsbymelissa 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for watching! I’ve had some in stratum several months now and they’re loving it. It starts to get more compacted over time which can lead to lack of airflow so once you have a decent root system you can transfer ☺️

@plantsbymelissa 11 месяцев назад

No in my opinion they’re not enough. I have overhead lights too on both sides but even that I feel isn’t enough. Some get more FC than others but the plants need to be within a foot or so of the light for it to be getting enough which is hard to do!

@liteweightpup2561 11 месяцев назад

Would the golden Pothos get more yellow with more light or does it stay green once it loses the variegation? Your plants are doing so well. I love that you put a pearls and jade on a pole. Curious to see how big the leaves get. Love how you decorate with plants.

@emilymajeski 11 месяцев назад

I hope my variegated Frydek will bounce back from its stump-state. I bought it online as a baby in late May and it promptly lost all 4 leaves. It was in stratum so I watered it and put it in a reservoir but didn’t notice it had holes in the side so I guess it got dry. Ugh, moved it to soil, then moved it back to stratum, then the top of the corm got mushy so I put it back in soil, but the roots look ok😑I don’t have high hopes.

@plantsbymelissa 11 месяцев назад

Try beneficials out 🫶🏻 i haven’t tried lacewings yet but I know they do a good job at them. Ladybugs are an option too if you don’t have cats. Males can fly so they can spread around to nearby plants. I try to be really thorough. It takes awhile to treat and check them but it saves more work down the road. Alcohol and a Qtip and a systemic pesticide to kill the eggs in the soil. That combo works for me. You just can’t mix a pesticide and good bugs though. You’ll have to wait a few weeks.

When you have plants with root rot, do you avoid watering for any amount of time? Or water as normal..

@plantsbymelissa 11 месяцев назад

I let them go pretty much dry before I give more. They won’t be able to take up water like they would normally so as long as the soil has some airflow that will encourage new roots to grow along with light and humidity.

@plantsbymelissa 11 месяцев назад

In summer I'm trying to buy them every 3-4 weeks. I'm about to order more today now that I'm back. I've used a few different kinds of mites and nematodes. I've seen mites active over 6 weeks out and I think they recommend leaving them on for 4-6 weeks. They'll hatch out at different times and I don't want to get rid of them too early. I usually leave the sachets on for awhile and just add new ones when I get them.

@KellyNellas 11 месяцев назад

I leave mine out for awhile too. I ordered more over the weekend and still waiting for them to be delivered. I end up moving my sachets from plant to plant every few days hoping that I can get some good mites on a few plants at a time. Do you know if there are sachets for mealy bugs too? I don’t have any at the moment…but would like to know which to get if I do see them again. Your plants are beautiful! I’m allergic to moss. I tried it once and oh boy…my hands itched so bad! I wish I could do moss poles. Maybe I should try a different brand.
