One request. Pls reduce the volume of background music it sometimes overpowers what you are saying n is quite distracting. Thank you for the valuable tips 😊

Yes please. Thank you for your tips!
"plant parent". What an expression! This describes all. I will be away for a long time and intend painting red spots on the plants that may be watered once a week. The green spots on plants that require regular watering. Rest I will have to leave to God. After all rarely we see a loving "step-parent"

I'm one that doesn't have that option but enjoyed how you made sure to cover all bases for each tip. Thank you so much!! Your love for plants truly shows 😍🥰
Thank you for the advice. I now have a plan for my plants while away!

The tip of writing out specific instructions is really good as I remember last time I went on vacation my “sitter”, ended up overwatering my plants! Thanks for sharing so much information!

Excellent tips! Three cheers for you, Madam! I am going out on vacation for 10 days and was worried about my 40+ plants in the balcony. Summer is approaching and having a plant sitter may not be desirable if she misses even a day of watering for some emergency at her end. I also visited amazon for the same purpose but was not convinced with some of the self-watering systems and also do not have the time for them to arrive. Your video is absolutely superb. You have a very very pleasant and convincing way of explaining in a simplistic and logical way. You describe briefly but completely and the video is very accurate and easy to follow. I am going to use your bottle in the plant, wick system, bucket system and tray with a bottle DIY ideas for different types of plants. These should help me out for the days I am out on vacation. One suggestion - you can make your video perfect if you can experiment with different systems and give an approximate idea as to how much water is taken up on average by a plant during different seasons like winter, summer, monsoon, etc. For example for an 8-inch planter of Rose plant, one liter of water for a week would be fine when the temperature is say 40 degrees. This does take some effort, but that information would be invaluable to many people who are going to use these DIY systems with the wrong capacity bottles or water resources. Just a thought for perfection... (I am a Professor...) but hearty congratulations on your superb video!

I am moving to Canada in January on study visa. After 2 years when I'll be done with my study, my parents will come to visit me. And I am watching this video now, as I love my plants. I don't know why, but I am always concerned about them that how will they get water when no one would be at home for long. 😅 I have more than 25 pots at home with beautiful plants, which I am taking care of from the last 5 years. The methods you shared with us was useful though. Loved the Wick hack under self watering system. I'll manage it by connecting it with a big container with regular flow of water droplets through water tank and fresh tap water. I know it's too early but got releived a bit finally. Thanks 😅
Nice information thanks 😃

Thank you so much for these tips. They are well thought out. Moving plants to the sink/ in one place for convenience for the plant sitter/ Terrarium, etc. means they are moved from the location from where they get optimum sunlight. What do you advice to mitigate the lack of sunlight?
I just randomly visited this video...my father loves planting...i will show this video to him....very nice tips...👏

Please make a video on Drip irrigation system
Very very useful information, which I was searching for long..... But if we have so many plants than what to do
The Spot on Video I like ideas of self irrigation system which you highlighted, but slight worried about the idea of the Kitchen and Washbasin Pot slight filled with water, you never know about that the sinks can really can hold weight plants and water a span of a week. They might get damage. I like the idea of the bifurcation of the plants according per their nature and their requirement. An individual can only rely on only such people has a same love and affection towards plants and nature, that is how the things gos well. I agree the idea of the testing self water system back at home, so that you may introduce with other. Bingo Idea of DIY Terrarium. Your tips are always very helpful for plants. Keep doing Good Work Dear My Blessings and Good wishes are always with you. Cheers:)
Plz make a diy dip irrigation system video
Thanx a lot for this video ...I will be on vacation next month n probably will opt for one or two of the tricks !! Happy durga puja to you , in advance!!
