Hi Maya! Nice to meet you and thanks so much for watching! Hope you're plants are pretty and beautiful too - all the best with your plant care and take care ☺️🌱

No worries Michael, always love hearing from you! Hope you're having an amazing/productive weekend - more dry walling perhaps????

@@simpleplanty Same James. I broke down and bought 2 black cardinal philodendrons so that moratorium is over lol. The drywalling is done for now. Just finished doing a concrete overlay on the countertop so need to seal that, do a mosaic feature behind the vanity and refresh the floor tiles. All that will be over the next few days however tonight I am heading to a comedy show with some friends. Hope that you have a great Sunday.

@@The_Planted_Eye_1 HOORAY for the 2 black cardinal philo's! I hope when you refer to "broke down" that it wasn't out of anything depressing :P Nice one! We now need a DIYMike channel so I can see all of your work - I consume heaps of interior videos on youtube (wooden timbers and concretes are personally my favourite aesthetic). Enjoy your comedy show Michael, and same to you! :)

Not to worry Dylan - pruning will promote the leaves to grow back ☺️ snow queen's are pretty hardy and grow back pretty quick when they're happy, so I'm sure you're on the path to success ☺️💪🌱

Thankyou for enjoying my channel, really appreciate it 😊🌱💚

Thankyou Anna! Always great hearing from you and have an amazing Sunday! So close to the end of lockdowns for us!!!

@@simpleplanty You have a great sunday too :D that means BUNNINGS SOON

@@annak5792 omg seriously I MISS BUNNINGS SO MUCH LMAO 🤣🤣🤣

(Also loveeee your mean girls reference!)

@@lenawiles1218 next trip - get the marble queen from Bunnings! 👏👏👏

hello!!! thankyou for watching from Sri Lanka

Hi! Thanks for reaching out and appreciate the feedback! Brown patches can be caused by a number of different reasons and it really depends - some possible causes include fungal infection, underwatering or possibly too much direct afternoon sunlight. I generally don't expose any of my plants to direct afternoon sun as it's known to be a lot more harsh which could attribute to the browning. Try a shadier spot if possible - snake plants are know to be pretty vigilant through many lighting conditions though! Perhaps as a first step, try exposing it to no afternoon sun if it's convenient and see how that goes first, then monitor the other ones I've mentioned. Hope that helps 😊🌱

.. Maybe they have a little to much water?? 🙄 My Sanseviera, all of them, and my "arms and legs" (pencil cactus - though not a cactus at all but a succulent) are sitting in Eastern window and growing like crazy.. I water them when I remember, maybe once a month or every two month 😳☺️ I take them outside on my front porch, east side, the 1st of May and take them back inside in October before the first frost.. During that time I water more often, after sundown, about every other week, depending on how warm and how dry the weather is.. I clean them up before going outside and when coming back in, a wee tricky though, with a microfiber cloth and a spray bottle with seaweed solution.. Nothing more.. I hope your Sanseviera will get better soon 🌞🤗

Hi Noneya! Thanks for watching - I usually cut down my fertilizer during winter, but my general rule of thumb is that if you see growth, even during winter, then it doesn't hurt to give it a bit to stimulate / feed the growth :) Roughly once a month or couple of weeks. Hope that helps!

Definitely can propagate cuttings and then replant them into the same pot! An old trick that I do with a lot of my plants - just note that fresh cuttings may need some time to root before they actually take off, I’ve tend to not have much luck just planting newly / immediate cuttings and tend to let them root first before I replant them. Otherwise you can use a few bobby pins to affix the vining stems into the base of the soil to promote more growth - another hack! Hope that helps ☺️🍀

Hi Allie! Feel free to prune down brown leaves - I tend to do this in general so it promotes new growth (directs it energy to new leaves). Those flying pests are fungus gnats - there are multiple ways to get rid of them (I do have another video on the channel if you wanted to check it out). ☺️🌱

Thanks Emz! Hope you are doing well and thanks for watching. Take care 😊🌱

No worries, Alexis! Hopefully all goes well with the new one! Should be relatively straightforward, thanks for your message 😊🌱

Hello!!! Always so great to hear from you and it has also been awhile since I've uploaded a new video, so you're not late at all (I'm actually late 😅) I'm so happy to hear that your deliciosa finally has new leaves - did you do anything different? Although, it's spring time so your plant in general will be enjoying the heat 😊 how have you been? Hope you have been well and having lots of fun!

@@simpleplanty it's ok take your time I know how hard to put all your effort to make new videos and takes time to edit just take it easy and enjoy 😊🥰 yeah but it is only on leaf but I'm happy for it. I put it in a place where is bright direct sunlight and put some liquid fertiliser and like what you said in the end of this video I try to deep the aireal roots in to water😅 I want to try to change the soil nextime do you have any advice?

@@missa6782 Thanks for this - it really made my day :) no worries, it's Spring, so I'm sure after a couple more weeks you will have another soon! Haha - you actually don't need to be putting those aerial roots in water!!! But I'm sure your monstera is loving the new place you put it in. For soil mix, I use a premium potting mix (I mix cactus and orchid mix together at 30% & 30% - or substitute with 60% premium potting mix) and add in perlite for the remaining (so you can add spaces and aeration for the roots). I also add charcoal, but up to you :) Make sure you're using a mask when working with perlite, you should be careful not to inhale, so be safe! What stores do you normally shop for materials?

@@simpleplanty aww thank you so much😊 I will change the soil when I get the materials nextime. I always go in bunnings or porters or sometimes @ the local nursery but sometimes the price is way expensive. I need to make the moss pole too always keep all your advice in mind.. I'm more of a rose plants I love roses and only start collecting house plants last year..

@@missa6782 no worries - Bunnings is usually my go to, but I generally like visiting some nurseries anyway to support smaller businesses 😊 wow, is it difficult to care for roses? Would be amazing to see them bloom.

In my opinion, bottom or top watering is entirely by preference - I personally don't have the patience for bottom watering 😂 but if you do, no worries and go ahead! Again, just an opinion but if you're quite root bound you generally want to be a little more careful anyway since the roots tend to trap the drainage below anyway and you don't want the roots to be overly wet / "ie wet feet" as it can cause rot. But if you've got an adequate draining substrate, no worries there!

@@simpleplanty Thanks for replying. Some plants do not do well with bottom watering, but I am glad I bumped into this video because that plant is so bushy it might be almost impossible to water if from the top and once you said it doesn't like to be wet, that was it. Thanks!

@@hennesseyme9112 no worries at all - I'm glad I could help! Thanks for watching and all the best with it 😊🌱

Hi Monique! I don't think there's any need to worry as the leave patterns will change over time - I do 'feel' as if brighter lighting conditions will facilitate more of the 'white', but if it's out on the balcony getting ample sun, there's no need to worry 😊🌱

Thankyou so much! And thanks for watching 😊🌱

Hi Cherie - you definitely could! My friend is doing it with hers and I love it!!! I’m sure yours will grow and be able to do both soon / they’re pretty fast growers when they’re happy! ☺️

Hi Elaine! Thanks for your feedback and comment on the video - much appreciated! There can be multiple factors which cause brown spots on the snow queen - from not enough light, too much light, or too much fertiliser, so it all really depends. Do you know what lighting conditions you are keeping it in? If it has adequate light, no need to worry because, if your plant is growing in optimal environment conditions and there is new growth that you're noticing, a reminder that not all leaves will last forever, as old leaves will eventually yellow/brown due to natural turnover.

@@simpleplanty I keep it about a 6 feet away from a north west facing window, because I live in Malaysia, and the weather here is hot all year round and the evening sun is really strong. However it does have new growth quite often actually, like every 2 to 3 weeks there will be new leafs growing from 2 different trailing vines.

@@laineyyz direct afternoon sun is generally harsher which could be attributed to the browning - if you had a sheer curtain, that would definitely help the situation or if you had alternative convenient places where you could expose it to less direct afternoon sun would be ideal. Although, if it's growing quite well, might be a little shocked now if you want to move it. Hopefully that helped!

I realised that was quite common in the United States! Where are you from?

California USA 😀

@@freebutterfly102 nice to meet you! 😊🌱

No. The marble and snow Queen are separate varieties. Both marbled. Snow has far far more white. Neither is the n’joy.

Hi Bharat! Thanks for noticing - I've been extremely busy at my full time job, so haven't had any chance to upload new content as of recent. I hope to be back soon 😊🌱

Usually some tell tale signs of my plants whinging of the cold is droopy / wilty looking leaves - but it's usually temporary if it's not an extended period that it's too cold indoors! You'll generally be able to notice this, though 😂

@@simpleplanty that is what i was suspecting. It looked better yesterday and it was droopy when I woke up. Thank you!

@@madalynyoungbird4234 sounds like they were a little cold - no worries, they'll bounce back 😊🙌

@@simpleplanty i don't have a thermostat or any control of temperature in my dorm room. How can I keep the plant from being too cold during the winter nights?

@@madalynyoungbird4234 I see - there are actually products such as heat pads which can be used/purchased to keep the plant warm in general (which is more so used to promote / stimulate growth), but I usually just let my plants suffer and get used to it 😂 how long have you had your plant for and how cold does it get?

Hi Mishel - thanks for noticing, been really busy on the personal front, will try to be back with one asap, thanks for your support ☺️🌱

@@simpleplanty thank you 😊

@@Conuremomof2 no, thankYOU! ☺️

I find that they cause so much drama with wet leaves! Avoid if possible - probably spreads bacteria anyway 😅 hope that helps!

Pruning means simply cutting off the leaves ☺️ I usually just cut back damaged or wilted leaves as a normal routine exercise. How exciting - I’m sure they will flourish under your care!

@@simpleplanty thank you for your response and for making these informative videos!!! Would you go into depth of liquid fertilizer ? Or do you have another video that explains how to distribute it?

@@crylas3637 no worries at all - glad to help! Liquid fertiliser is amazing - you should look out for ones that contain NPK (nitrogen phosphorus & potassium). Ones I use here in Australia are by the plant runner and powerfeed and my plants go gangbusters for it. I’ll usually apply it to my watering once every 2-4 weeks during growing season (spring/summer) and cut down during winter. Just make sure you’re administering the right dosage from the product, as they are all different ☺️ hope that helps!

Hi Maya! Thanks for your comment - in summary, just simply what we call them here in Australia. If you google 'marble prince money plant' for example (what they call it in India, I believe), it's the same plant equivalent of what is called in the US an 'njoy' and in Australia, a 'snow queen'. Confusing, I know!

I made a whole video about the topic here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-86t1oUgBx1Q.html but now after reading your comment, I am still confused 🤣

Depends on which country you are from 🙊

Yup njoy and snow queen are same here down under. I can't found snow queen that looks like snow queen in other countries which seems marble queen but with more white splashes of varigation

@@eckehareckbert2731 how strangely confusing is it right! 😂

@@simpleplanty yup😁

@@eckehareckbert2731 they’re all beautiful regardless 😂 from where are you from!? Did you know in some parts of india they call it the marble prince!?

Thanks for the feedback, Cynthia! I'll slow down 😂 I tend not to mist my plants in general because residual water on the leaves generally can lead to issues (ie bacterial, fungal, etc.). Hope that helps ☺️🌱

Thanks for the feedback 😊
