Your plants looks amazing, and really love your Philodendron Melanochrysum! My favorite plant, its just so special. Would be really interested in a close up video on that! They are such a challenge to size up, the main problem I find is that it has a hard time attaching to the moss pole. The aerial roots seem to harden off before it gets a chance to really go in there. I have been trying to air-layer them using plastic wrap with moss around the roots attached to the pole, hopefully this will lead to more success! Really enjoyed your watering routine!

Maybe something that would work is to use a high quality soil wetter that is used for lawn care maybe once per month with your watering to keep the moss hydrated more easily.

Saya sangat suka,tanamannya cantik2

Would love to see how well a pole with an aroid mix with around 50% coco coir would work , could wrap with coco matt around the entire pole or just the front if using a plastic back to contain the mix. I think it would be easier to wet and prob hold moisture a bit better?

Hopefully gt is pitching in, cause by my calculations that’s some serious dough in fertilizers across your plants, even at 5ml/ltr. I bought some recently (I’m in the US) and is working very well. Gotta love amazons. We need a coupon code Jan!!!

Hey Jan, thanks for this content, you’ve inspired me to start growing on moss poles. I have 4 poles and 3 crawlers in the same self watering pot as you. They’re all in my office which is about 10 feet by 10 feet. I’ve noticed it smelling “mossy” for lack of a better word. It’s not a bad smell, but noticeable. Do you have that problem? Is it my moss? Is there anything to do except accept it as part of the hobby ?

Hey! I'm pretty new to your channel and a new subscriber. Thanks for all the videos and tours and info you share, its really appreciated! I've just learnt from you in another video recently about the bottle-watering of moss poles/plants and its such a great tip! I'll definitely start trying that myself as I get more and more moss poles. I was just wondering about feeding in these two videos you made, I don't know if I missed when you said it or not, but the water in your bottles, is it just plain water or do you have fertilizer in them as well? And follow up questions to that, do you water the moss poles with fertilized water or just the actual pots? Many thanks! Cheers

This afternoon I and my brother had time to repot our Anthurium Faustino Giant. 😊We are so happy because the new pink roots are showing up well. Old roots became rotten. When this big plant was given to us, the roots weren't in healthy condition. We were worried whether we could be able to save it? At that time this plant had 5 large leaves and 1 baby leaf. Finally 3 leaves turned yellow and I cut them off. At the moment it has 2 healthy leaves, 1 small leaf, 1 beautiful flower ..and 1 tiny cute baby leaf emerging from its cover. We put this Anthurium on the terrace. I looked at that plant from behind the window. The Anthurium looks so happy... It smiles at me!.😊. Amazing!!.. I'm soo happy because of this... because you have been present in my life.💖. Jan..Thank you soo much.🤗 Your LOVE brings JOY to my life!! 💓. Have a sweet dream, my LOVE 🥰.
