Hi Juliette! How are you? This video is in perfect timing! I had the purple Wandering Jew Plant. It grew very quickly and the leaves were very close together. I propagated it and kept making more and more plants. Two weeks ago, I bought the green version. It was a small, 2.5" plant. Right off the bat, it started to wilt and look terrible. I watered it when it was dry with hydrogen peroxide and water. It continued to decline. I just took 5 very small cuttings. Have them in water with a few drops of Superthrive. Hopefully it will come back. I have never seen the Nanock. Very beautiful plant. Enjoy your Earth Day tomorrow. Gerry HPEteacher 😎

@patriciasaulnier6566 3 года назад

I think because you have the mother plant growing on the shelf is why the leafs are so far apart on the stems as if you had those beautiful bright colored ones with the roots that you propagated, they will grow upwards if you dontt put it up on a shelf trying to reach for the light.

Your voice so relaxing that you should do ASMR. The potting up sounds were like ASMR for me too . Thank you so much for this video. I enjoyed watching every moment of it. I have mine in pumice mixed with Coco Loco potting mix( 2 parts potting mix to 1 part large pumice ) . Coco Loco n XS is a coconut coir-based potting mix. I have it in good lighting. I actually have several of them around my house and they are all crispy and etiolated. Im finally going around and doing my cutting . Is it best to propagate them in water or can I just dip them in rooting hormone powder and put them straight in soil? I am going to try some of them in pure Coco Loco potting mix because I think that maybe they just don’t like how dry I keep them. I am the type to forget to water plants a lot. So I do best with succulents. Most of my regular house plants are very unhappy because it gets hot in my living room three to the grow light shelves I keep the succulents on . The tradescantia are either hanging next to windows or on tables with indirect light . I just can’t seem to get it right . Thank you again! You’re amazing. Love your style .

Hi Lety, Thank you for your kind words and for watching our videos. Looks like you love Cactaceae family plants. They are pretty cool and amazing! Just like for any succulent or cacti, less is more! Most of the time overwatering is the main issue. Few Tips: 1. The right subtract: well draining mixture of bark, peat. perlite 2. Do not fertilize much - use Cactus fertilizer (half of recommended amount) quarterly 3. Do not expose to direct, intense sunlight (too close to south-west window) 4. Best to keep in tighter pot 5. Water through well, Then allow the soil to dry all the way through before watering again. Hope this helps. Don't get discouraged. We learn when we fail 😀 Green Luck! 🌱

Better use cotton swaps deeper in rubbing alcohol to remove all visible bugs, then LIGHTLY spray plants with Neem Oil. Repeat once a week until bugs are gone!

Is every fortnight right? Or should it be every 3 weeks? Every 4 weeks? Hope you can help please.

Hi Nancy, The most common reason for Tradescantia Nanouk root rot in water is not changing the water often enough. Change water at least once a week or when it looks cloudy. To avoid root rot in soil, use a very small pot so there is not too much soil around the cutting that does not dry fast enough. Green luck and Thank you for watching 🌱

@Mycityplants 3 года назад

The watering frequency will change and plants need to be watered more during warm seasons. The best is to check your plants twice a week to help you to understand how fast the soil is drying out. Once you understand the watering needs,, you can adjust testing the soil frequency.. Green Luck! 🌱

Thank you for the tips. 🌱 Yes, propagating in soil is another way to go. I personally prefer to pot plants (that can be propagated in water) into soil when they have some developed roots. Keeping soil evenly moist (while new roots develop) can be tricky and risk of overwatering is higher in this case 😀

I transferred my nanouk to PON and its not happy the leaves look floppy and browning. Do you get sponsorship from Lucuza? Please declare in your vidoes if you do.

@Mycityplants Год назад

Hi Shafik, I do not get any sponsorship from Lechuza. Nanouk might be struggling due to Watering issue (over or under), inconsistent watering, light (too bright or too low). *** Allow the PON to dry before watering. Thank you for watching 🌱

@shafikjanhangeer8692 Год назад

@@Mycityplants its been a while and my plant is not happy in PON placed it back into soil. I don't think the transcadia is suited to PON in soil my plant was happy thriving and even gave me lovely flowers. I don't think it would flower in PON. However my snake plant is doing ok in PON.

You did that from one stem? My mom got a purple waffle as a gift in a pot and for some reason there were a couple T. Nanouk stems growing on the side. I wanted to take one for myself but I wasn’t sure if it would kill hers by taking a stem from one of hers.. THere is 2 little baby ones and 2 3 inch ones

Hi, my Nanouk has flowered so much now, it's very healthy but too many flowers there. I don't think a flowered Nanouk doesn't look good. How can I grow it with no flower?

@Mycityplants 3 года назад

Hi Ethan, A flowering plant is a happy plant! If you are not a big fan of flowers, get a plant type that does not flower 😀 🌱

@@Mycityplants I like flowers but this has too much - sorry for not able to show you - typically Nanouk is beautiful if it has no flower right?

Yes, this substrate already contains some fertilizer. You will have to fertilize on a more regular basis in (semi-)hydroponics or use a slow-release product

@michiehuynh 3 года назад

Great info, I loved it. But you need a better camera handler. It’s hard to tell what you’re doing when it’s zoomed in since it was so blurry. And it was very shaky.

I love this video, but this is not practical for people on a budget. Lechuza Pon alone is expensive, not to mention the pots. I thought you would show a more practical way for these plants but thanks. Your video is beautiful.

@Mycityplants 2 года назад

Hi, Thank you for watching and your feedback. I think, when it comes to pruning, propagating, dividing, trimming, fertilizing, cleaning, dealing with pests, etc., it does not matter in which pots plants are growing. It just happens that all my plants are potted in Lechuza planters, most in soil BTW not PON 😀
