    Yayyyyy, thanks for answering my question about Olive!!! What a cute little baby, my heart 😍❤🐶 I laughed because my dog also loves carrots and she'll sprint across the house if she hears me chopping one. Olive is so lucky to have you as her mama and that your mom also adopted one of her buddies! And I love a long Fern videoooooo 🎉

    Hobbies, I also consider food a hobby. It's motivated by having Crohn's disease, but fortunately I also enjoy cooking for myself and prioritizing food that is minimally processed/low additives so that I can try and keep my symptoms under control with my diet. Between food and plants, that's all the time I have for hobbies lol, but I'm always striving to find more time to get outside. Thanks for all the videos Fern, you add so much to our lives!! 💜💜💜

I've made so many things for him and continue to do so. I'm also crocheting for my daughters and the ladies in my family and myself as well. I LOVE it!! This is a FANTASTIC video. xxx

    I used to be such a huge reader ❤ I need to get back into it so badly, and love watching book content! I have a decent sized book collection but I’d like to expand it, and I have some unread books I need to get to. I just end up sucked into my phone or tv, I put it on for background noise, then end up sucked into it instead.. I need to figure out my bedroom setup & get my cozy corner set up with the love seat & plant table, so I have a spot to read with no distractions…📚🪴 I’ll need to acclimate certain plants to the bedroom first, since it’s way different conditions in there compared to the main living/kitchen area, where I keep 99% of my plants 🪴😅 I’m working with only south facing windows in our apartment, but the living room has a covered balcony that prevents direct light from hitting my plants. The kitchen and bedroom don’t have that, so there’s direct sun on certain areas, so I need to be careful about which plants I put where 😅 Also sorry for the novel lmao 😅❤

    big congrats on the new house, new space, new plant display in the back, everything's looking great! appreciate the open honesty. as for WFH/ self employed time management, I'm still figuring that out lmao. I'm super ADHD so time tends to slip away from me, but something that helps me is preparing my schedule the night before + I try really hard to do the longest or most unpleasant/ unfun tasks first so I feel super accomplished even if I don't do much else that day. I tend to do better when I do workouts/ meditation first then start my working day afterwards. You will figure out your best routine, you're dealing w lots of changes right now so it might take awhile just be gentle with yourself :)

    I just forgot how good your videos feel. I was busy because I had my final exams before university, like end of high school and I hadn't had my for it. I fell behind with every channel I watched. My plants are barely living. I worked when my holidays started so the only thing I had the energy for was just pop them in the tub and sprinkle some tap water on them from the shower handle. I haven't repotted any of them, didn't even fertalised. They just somehow managed to survive the summer heats but there is like no growth. But now I have September to just unwind before the university starts. I gonna repot the plants that need that, take care of them more, do some thinking whether I wanna keep them all or not. Finally I have the time and mind to just sit with my tea and watch your chatty repots. I'm looking forward to seeing your spooky videos soon. Like I liked the autumn because of you. You know, sometimes you feel like we're on the journey with you, but at least for me some creators just travel with me as well. I love to look back and say "lets watch fern like on a cozy winter evening 2 years ago" its just so comforting. Im glad to catch up on your channel, plants, how your lifes going. I missed out on you buying the house but Im happy about it. And I want the cuprea now lmao such impressive leaves!!!

    I love all your videos and chats because it’s too gosh darn relatable! Doggy DNA kits... I did it and LOVED it. There are lots out there but I chose Embark because the interface is so nice and user friendly, plus it has so many cool features and the explanations are top notch. Some are like genetic breed result, a health summary or genetic risks which also gives you an option to share your results with your vet and it even lets you know if they have relatives based on other people who did the DNA test for their doggos. 10/10 for sure! Home ownership... I’m in my “do what makes me happy” era so this was a big realization for me. I’ve owned my house for almost 6 years now and I’ve been hesitant to make certain changes because people will put in your head the desire to consider resale which is so not important. Always putting resale first and making decisions based on that makes it feel like your renting and making your house for someone else. This is YOUR house, do whatever you want! I hate that it took me so long to realize that because I am loving the unique changes I’ve made that make me feel so joyful. Biggest piece of advice, do whatever you want! You can always just make another change ❤

    I just love watching your videos! They are so relaxing and informative! I can’t tell you how many plants I’ve purchased after watching your videos (alocasia cuprea is now on my list lol) lol! I’m at the “hobby” part of this one … so thought I’d chime in with my hobbies. I love all things planty, I have a cute little Goldendoodle that takes up a lot of my time and attention and a betta fish that I’m trying so hard to keep aquatic plants alive for him… they’re not as easy as houseplants lol. I am a quilter and love to sit at my sewing machine and make things. I did recently start crocheting and I find it very relaxing, especially at night when the hubs is watching tv. I also enjoy reading and just recently (today) decided to give audible a try and am thinking that I can listen to a book while I crochet at night …. We’ll see how that goes! Thank you for sharing your hobby and houseplants with us!

Our best friend took one as well and she actually got a DNA test for hers so it was so cool to find out what breeds they were mixed with!

    Awesome repot!

I have seen such an improvement in my daughter since quitting caffeine. And I'm glad you were able to get out of that toxic work environment...I did the same a few years ago and haven't looked back. Doing what you enjoy is so important, and to be surrounded by beautiful plants all day long is a bonus. But the best thing is having people around you who love, respect and support you in what you do ❣💚

    I love these type of videos so much! So happy to see you and your plants enjoying the new space and set up! Side note, you asked about favourites videos in your past video and they are some of my favourite types of videos as it feels like a recap of the month and a reset for the next month! ❤❤

    My hobbies, listening to true crime and murder mystery podcasts while I garden, outside and inside. I have a large property so have many garden areas I am slowly building up and rejuvenating. I was lucky to have some well established fruit trees when I bought my home. I built some veggie gardens and a chicken.pen, because chickens are a gardeners best friend. Free poo, free eggs, free pest control and soil aeration. Also have a worm farm, 4 slow composts, a cat, a dog and 3 fish. My next big project is setting up an aquaponic pond. I don't eat fish so will likely use koi, but I can't wait to add to my food output. Aiming at self sufficiency as much as possible so I can work less ❤

    Hey Fern. Love your videos. I have a tip for time management, (sort of? 🤔) Instead of focusing on what u haven't done "perfectly".... Always, count your blessings name them one by one! Literally! This simple thing does miracles to change your mindset, to stop being so hard on yourself! I too have depression and nervousness. It helps me. 🌷💚

Hobbies include knitting, writing, reading and plants lol... Life has been lifeing lately so have not had much of an opportunity to do much besides my plants. Thanks for sharing about your relationship with your dad, it was very touching. Sending you sooo much Love ❤

    Another fan from the US, this time from Idaho. My daughter is a nurse, and she definately works hard at staying positive. She worked in a Neuro dept for many years, and recently moved to a out patient surgery dept. She no longer has to witness the trauma of death and dying which is so difficult. I recall her torn up about whether patients received proper care or not. Anyway, I am sure you are so much happier outside of that life. You do still contribute to the well being of others though. The comments attest to that!

    I hope you’re having a good vacation Fern ❤ loving this video as I start work with a coffee! I completely know how you feel about your dad. My mom isn’t super “handy” and she also has some physical issues so there’s just things I never learned like how to be handy! So those home reno situations are kinda a struggle. I can always learn. I find it hard to see babies or children with their dads 😢 but also being just with my mom is all I’ve ever known too.

    Small plants. I have a very 8:38 small area to repot. The biggest I did was my bird of paradise which was leaning to one direction and the soil on the other side was heaving out of the pot. So it got a new bigger pole. Took me a While to get it upright and balanced. looking beautiful where it is doing great. Then I made my first moss pole. Ugh. It’s crooked in the pot. I tried to use grafting tape but I couldn’t get it to work at all. I ended up looking for plant velcro that came with the poles. It’s lopsided but the pole is still intact and upright. It’s doing well. Two monstera plants on one pole. One has two leaves with fenestrations the other has none.

    I don't enjoy nursing any more. Have just taken 10 weeks off and all I have done, is weed, prune, plant, garden and repot plants. Building a patio this weekend and doing some paving. I don't want to go back to work but I need an income again soon...bummer. It is spring here in Australia so beautiful weather and my plants are waking up and my rinunculas and bottle brushes are all in bloom...❤

    Thanks for sharing Fern! Idk why it is so fun to hear pet stories but now I want to learn about Cadence too 😌 Also I totally feel you when it comes to hobbies. On top of a regular work day, I’m proud when I have the energy to cook meals, do yoga and have a few minutes left to read something I enjoy 🤓 I did have a crochet era during COVID but had much more free time then. If I have extra time to spare it most definitely goes to my plants or occasional sewing projects 💚

    I agree with you, sometimes you have to just say no to new hobbies. Right now, my main home hobbies are homebrewing and plants. I am also into a bunch of outdoor sports, but as you say, that's more of a personal maintenance thing (physical + mental health) than a hobby in my opinion. I snowboard, bike, hike, camp, rock climb, etc... I thought I would get into macrame for the plants but I bought all the stuff but have yet to use it, we'll see.
