* I need to add a note to this video about nutrient holding capacity that accidently got cut from the video and I didn't notice until it was already done and public.* Coco coir has excellent moisture and nutrient holding capacity. As long as the coir stays moist, the nutrients it has absorbed are readily available to be used by the plants with the exceptions of the mentioned, iron, magnesium and calcium, which sometimes can be bound up in the coconut coir. When I talked about fertilizing with every watering, it should be noted that I meant to fertilize in extremely dilute concentrations with each watering. Finally; yes I know I spelled, "dilute" incorrectly in the video. On the little editing screen the "i's" and "l's" all blend together. It's fine.

Turbo's eyes when he wants to keep playing in the beginning of the video are sooo expressive! He's probably impossible to say no to! But he's a very good listener and a very good boy! Just love him ❤

@TropicalPlantParty 11 месяцев назад

So expressive! That dog can do a lot of talking with his eyes!

Thank you Jeff, be safe, stay healthy and we’ll see you next time. 🌺💚🙃

Hi Jeff 👋 What a FANTASTIC video! Thank you for going in depth with info. Love it!! Take care of yourself 😊

The plant looks really very nice in its new home. 🌺💚🙃

I love that pot with it!

@michaelmccarthy4077 Год назад

One of the more effective ways to deal with nutrient deficiency in coir is to use a fertilizer with chelated metals. Chelation makes the nutrients available at a much wider range of pH, up to nearly 8. There are many out there but most are chelated with EDTA, which some people are strongly opposed to. There are some that are chelated with organic acids but they have a higher cost. Plant potion #9, TPS nutrients and some others do offer non EDTA chelated metal supplements (TPS and some others offer a balanced feed with the chelated metals, plant potion #9 is chelated metals only). There are fertilizers made specifically for use with coir as well but any hydroponics specific fertilizer will typically work.

@TropicalPlantParty 11 месяцев назад

Several good options out there for people who want to stick with the coir.

@judymckerrow6720 Год назад

Beautiful plant! 🌺💚🙃

@TropicalPlantParty Год назад

@judymckerrow6720 Год назад

I know high PH can bind up iron in soil, Garden Answer says so. And I believe it. 🌺💚🙃

@TropicalPlantParty Год назад

Lol, it can! And coco coir likes to hold onto it and not let it go!

@sandyg8794 11 месяцев назад

Hi Jeff! This video was very helpful! The difference between coco coir and peat have never been explained so thoroughly, and I really appreciate the time you took to explain this. I've tried several of the wider leaf dracaena's, but they don't do very well for me. They leaves tend to start turning brown at the bottom of the plant, then just continue until they're dead. I really like them, but am about to give up on them. Is there a chance that you could do a care video on them? Turbo's so precious! Thank you so much for sharing!

@judymckerrow6720 Год назад

I guess houseplant soil and regular old garden soil are a lot alike in the fact of the availability of the nutrients in the soil and whether or not a plant can access those nutrients or if their bound up by not having the proper PH. It makes sense in my head anyway. 🌺💚🙃

@TropicalPlantParty Год назад

In the regard to ph and nutrients being bound up, it's the same deal.

@sherriheebner9479 Год назад

Hi Jeff. You are so knowledgeable. I would love to know about your background and education.

@TropicalPlantParty 11 месяцев назад

Hey there! My background is actually psychology which has basically nothing to do with gardening except for it providing me the skill to find and analyze reliable research. Been growing plants since I was a small child and its where all if my internal nerd energy has been focused ever since. 😊

@darkartsbyadrienne Год назад

Omg Jeff! This was excellent!! I always believed dracaena's (especially mine) to be very slow growers......... whoops 😅 I'm definitely taking what I learned from this video and applying it to my 6 long suffering dracaenas... those poor little guys!! Thank you so much for the awesome info!!

@TropicalPlantParty 11 месяцев назад

They can be happy and healthy whether theyre zooming or chilling. Totally normal for them to hang tight and not grow like insanity. It also is highly dependent on the type of dracaena, some grow much faster than others.

@donnasmalley3713 Год назад

Measuring ph would be useful when using a rain barrel to water potted plants

@TropicalPlantParty 11 месяцев назад

Absolutely!

With the cost of Proven winner plants I’m going to be trying to save a lot of them through the winter. I figure I can do that because I’m not going to be selling them. I’ve taken cuttings of my coleus and some impatiens so far. I need to get busy trying to root some other things too. Maybe a potato vine and some sun impatiens. I figure that I can dig up the dichondra silver falls and hopefully the four o’clocks made a tuber for me so I can save them. I know 4 o’clock s are vey easy to start from seed, but I want to try and save the tubers if I have any. I’m also going to try an experiment with my Proven winners petunias. I’m going to try and take cuttings from them and see if I can root them. I also am going to TRY and start some perennials from seed this winter🤞🏻. Oh I also want to try and save my geraniums for next year 🤞🏻. I didn’t get the grow room set up yet, I NEED to work on that otherwise the house is going to be an absolute jungle until I get it done🤣🌺💚🙃

@TropicalPlantParty Год назад

😄 that's a lot of work, but will save a lot of money! Geraniums are soooo easy to overwinter indoors, those will be fun to have indoors!

@judymckerrow6720 Год назад

I also think who you buy the plant from also matters? 🌺💚🙃

@TropicalPlantParty Год назад

Definitely! Well, what it's potted in and the conditions of the new grower are the main things. However, different growers use different mixes so that plays a big role.

@judymckerrow6720 Год назад

Okay I’m done telling you my life story, maybe! Don’t feel obligated to make any comments to my ramblings, just trying to help! 🌺💚🙃

@TropicalPlantParty 11 месяцев назад

Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that! Can imagine this would be a challenging year in Cali with the heat and droughts then hurricane. No consistency.

@judymckerrow6720 Год назад

Did you spell dilute wrong? I would never have noticed without you pointing it out.😉🌺💚🙃

@TropicalPlantParty Год назад

Think I used to two "l's" in the video. Idk, my brain is scrambled from the home construction this week. 😄 This video barely even made it out to the public.

@ShughaKane 11 месяцев назад

Good point, thanks. Is there any good peat replacement for indoor plants? All the commercial potting mix I can get are peat based. I tried to use composted manure as a main base and there's too much organic matter and very quickly caused root rot and stunned the plant, I have to fall back to coir to save it. I'm considering using leaf mold next time, but am afraid if it will cause rot again.

@judymckerrow6720 Год назад

My voodoo lily showed up today and I’m at a loss as to what I should do with it now. Do I plant it and mulch the heck out of it, or do I plant it in a container and bring it in for the winter? You said that they need a cold period and I’m really pushing the planting zone on it. My original thought was to plant it and keep it growing in the house through the winter. Now I’m totally confused. Maybe plant it in a container then bring it in and move it to the basement for the winter? A little help here ? JK I bought it my headache.🌺💚🙃

@TropicalPlantParty Год назад

I'd just put it in the ground and mulch the heck out of it this fall.

@@TropicalPlantPartyCan I do this with a Dipladenia? I'm in zone 8b and the tag says zones 9 to 13. I planted it in ground and against the building on the SE side of the building . I'm planning on mulching well soon. I don't have space or light inside and I am reluctant to dig it up as I've heard that Dipladenia have sensitive roots. Love your channel!

@donnasmalley3713 Год назад

In some cities there are mulch and compost yards you can buy from 😊
