ABOUT ME
I’m Fern! A 20-something gal living on beautiful Vancouver Island, Canada with my partner and two dogs. I like to create content on social media part time and also work as a Registered Nurse. I am interested in health and wellness - nutrition, holistic living, and exercise. I have been vegan for over 4 years and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I have over 100 houseplants and love to share about them :) For those into astrology, I am a gemini sun, scorpio moon, & libra rising. I started out on social media with a focus on makeup/beauty/fashion and am not into it as much, but I do share on those topics from time to time. Thanks for stopping by!

You should do a video where you organise your plant supplies and then you can talk us through the products you use at the same time! Organisation videos are just soo satisfying

I don't have a faucet or shower with a hose either. I don't even have a bathtub (....I can't wait to renovate). But I have on occasion ran my outside hose I'm through the window above my sink. Just make sure you have a nozzle you can control the water with. My neighbor thought I was nuts, but I had to leave on a holiday and it sped things up.

Thank you for the lovely video :) when you were speaking of the string of hearts and how it's very vocal when it needs water, mine has wrinkly leaves on the top but the rest of the leaves look healthy. Am I under watering it? I usually give it water once a week when the leaves look extra wrinkly.

@wildfern 4 года назад

I go by the "mature" leaves on the top. If they are hard the plant shouldn't need water.

@jordannaumannItsJordan 4 года назад

Hi Fern, I recently bought a little wild looking Rhaphidophora Tetrasperma. His newer leaves are smaller (he wasn't getting enough light is my guess). I was wondering if you think I should leave him to grow, or cut and propagate the newer leaves? Thanks! Sending smiles, Jordan.

@wildfern 4 года назад

Give him a stake/pole to climb up and he will produce bigger leaves :)

@allyjuyu3070 4 года назад

New subscriber here too! Love These Kind of Videos. So its ok to let fertilized water in the sink? I got really paranoid about this since I read to avoid fertilizer in your drain.

Fern I love your show and I'm learning a lot about house plants I didn't know before. that being said, the background music for parts of this video sounded like the Muzak played on the CVS Pharmacy's recording when they put you on hold. I don't know why but it sounds like an old record that is warped!

@orchidsbythelake 4 года назад

It’s funny. I did the same thing with watering videos... I have too many to update so ended up doing updates while watering. Water costs so I drain the water into a tub and use it again...besides the fact that it might spread something. Anyway, about the faucet... we were living in apartment with no fancy faucet so I can totally understand. I was using a plastic/rubber product for kids which you can lead the water to different direction so kids can reach out...

@wildfern 4 года назад

Great idea to reuse the water. Also would save on fertilizer/nutrients. And yes haha I quickly realized it was not going to be possible to show more than one room lol.

@nothanks5394 4 года назад

it may be a little harder for your kitchen sink but even if your renting exchanging faucets heads is common and pretty easy. the shower is usually a screw-on even.

@wildfern 4 года назад

I've definitely thought about it, especially for the shower..

@jessicar8141 4 года назад

Switching the shower to a removable sprayer was super easy. Didn't even need tools. Bough a cheap $25-30 on Amazon and installed it in minutes. Game changer! Ya sink.... not so easy

what soil do you use for your moisture loving plants , the soil i am using inset the best for moisture loving plants and it seems like whatever your using is great

@yourfriendtheflower9981 3 года назад

also where do you get most of your plants, mostly your pitcher plant i think that pitcher plants are such cool plants but i dont know where to get one at

@wildfern 3 года назад

I will either just use regular potting mix and add a small amount of perlite (enough so that is still drains but not too quickly!) OR if I want to get fancy I will mix coco coir, perlite, orchid bark, and charcoal. I don't want it to be super dense, I'd rather have to water it more often than have water sitting for too long.

@wildfern 3 года назад

I tend to find a lot of them on Facebook or from plant friends. I like to buy from North Shore Tropicals and Crystal Star Nursery too though :) and local shops in my area!

Regular bugs (like spiders n stuff from outside) - no. Houseplant pest bugs - yes. Pests are usually tiny enough that you don’t know they’re there unless you are looking though.
