It's such a pretty little plant. I'm glad you were able to save it. It was fun to watch the process and progress it made along the way. Yay! ❤❤❤

Thanks #Doctorojie for the herpes herbs now I’m cured.

I love the way you gentle with your plant.

Love a good plant rescue!!! 🪴❤️🪴 I rescued a small monstera that was near death in a store and I couldn’t leave it behind! Happy to say that she is now happy and thriving ❤️

What a wonderful success story! Thank you for sharing💚 I love Birkins🪴

Hi Christen, Great job, rerooting the poor plant, well done! Great video showing all the steps, very useful! Thanks very much for sharing and happy growing 😀!

Thank you for sharing how to save a plant. It is so noble of you to save this cute plant. I really admire your relationship towards plants and animals. I say relationship because when we talk to them nicely they understand you and appreciate you.

Please make a video about how you handled the spider mites! This is one pest that’s a death sentence for my plants.

Sure, I'd be happy to make a video on spider mites, thank you for the request Dee!

Everytime I think of u. For some reason u do a video. Thank u 4 doing an update on the sick plant. Have a great weekend xxx

Thank you for sharing . I really enjoyed this video and learning about the plants

Such a great video Christine to show that the look of the plant can be deceptive; you would never guess from the outside it lost it's root system. Well done you for saving it

Such a beauty!!😍.u're really good in planting n taking care of plants..thank you for sharing..hope to watch more of you repotting plants😊💕..take care...

Really enjoyed this video Christine!

I love a plant rescue project. Some of my best looking plants were plant rescues!

Bless you for saving your Birkin. It’s a favorite plant of mine. I have three but one is huge. They all sit under grow lights for six hours a day. They are living their best life.

Thank you Christine for sharing this! I have a Birkin that has signs of root rot so this is super helpful for me! 🤗

I'm soo happy you caught it on time, I was very happy when I found the last one at Walmart and it too was flopping over. I just thought it needed a stake till I could find the time to repot it. At the time it was in a very heavy peat mix that had no aeration. By the time I got to repot it a week later it was too late to save anything. I've learned to take a look under the hood sooner especially with plants purchased online awesome video.

The explanation about small hair roots duying first was so helpful as well as cleaning process! It helped me identify problem with my mini monstera. Thank you for sharing! ❤️

Christine, seeing your plant 🪴 holder in the back ground...I recall when you bought it and now that I am into plants it has stayed with me to buy one. It still looks beautiful.

Well done, Christine!

Love your videos I miss seeing the videos on what you eat in a day and your daily vlogs but whatever video you make is fun to watch thank you

@@christinekobzeff I look forward to seeing your vlogs and what you eat in a day again, too. The truth is, of course, that we just really enjoy YOU!!! 🥰🥰🥰

Very informative. Thorough explanation and step-by-step footage re: rehabbing a philodendron with root rot. I will definitely try this method in the future. Did not know that you should put newly "pruned" plant in hydrogen peroxide solution or that you could cut back the rotted roots to this degree. Thank you.

So interesting! 🌿

It was so worth the save WHAT A BEAUTY!!

Love your videos, I have learned so much from you!! I never watched your makeup videos, but I’m sure glad you are doing plant videos instead!! I love all your plants, I would love to have a gloriosum , awesome channel😊

Thank you for sharing. I'm going through the exact same thing with my Birkin. I tried to root mine in a sphagnum prop box for weeks with no root growth I moved it to water about a week ago still no roots. Hoping mine will eventually do as well as yours! Your video gives me hope

Such an informative video, I now know what to do with my Birkin. Thank you.

This really helped me save my Neon Pothos. It was doing good in the first weeks after it arrived from the shipment and then I started to see yellowing. Then when I checked the roots, that's when I saw how my plant had suffered so much. Good thing I saw this video. Now I am putting it in a jar of water and I see new roots coming out.

I had no idea about the peroxide Thankyou love love your videos

I love this so much!! I would love more big box rehab content!! 👏🏻 I have some string of dolphins and bananas that I need to figure out right now.

So informative! I didn't know about hydrogen peroxide and water for root rot. I love your rescue plant and glad it has done so well. Thank you for sharing! 😊☀️❤️

I'm on this journey with my birkin. I bought it with the same issues. Man....so many roots to remove. Poor thing was in so much dense, broken down soil that even mold was growing on the bark chips. I'm going to water propagate for a few weeks as well after treatment and then olant in a better pot. This video was very helpful!

Good save 👍

Very well produced info video!! Thanks for sharing!! Cheers!! I use Physan 20 and KelpMax (only this brand is a serious root and growth simulator) from First Rays LLC to deal with these same issues on rootless orchids. I do have to try the Hydro Perox solution on minor leaf infections when my plants are outside.....

Wonderful! I alread had a birkin that died of root rot, now i got another one that seemed to be wanting to go down the same road. I was wondering to use some kind of antibiotics, but our peroxide idea was just perfect! Now let's see if I can save this one, as I caught the rot in the beginning. Just plucked the affected leaves from the base and didn't need to cut too much of the roots. After the peroxide treatment I'm going to replant it in loose soil with tree bark for some weeks and let's see. It seems birkin is really sensitive to water! Thank you!!

Thankyou so much

That IS a nice Birkin! I've also got one with rot, and you've given me the courage to do what you did! (I wonder if Birkins are more susceptible to RR than other Philos?) THANKS for your help!

Thanks for this, I didnt know my white knight had the death trap so the leaves got droopy and I found root rot. I will do this and hopefully save my baby!

Can you please post the part 2 to How To Save Overwatered Succulents? I have a succulent with rotting stem that looks exactly like the one you showed at the end and need to know what to do :'(

I wish I knew this sooner because I think that happened to mine!

Hi from Australia 🤗 I have a plant with similar leaves on it not sure of its name but very similar to this. The new leaves are coming out almost white albino like with not green lines on a them is it lacking in something ? Thank you for sharing what you do with your plants 🥰🤗

Info good to know about ways to save plants from root rot. Christine, you have an enviable collection of grow lights and I have purchased several based on your recommendations. Would you consider sharing info about the energy costs, spacing above plants, heat given off and anything additional you found as you added grow lights to your plant room? Grow lights have increased my plants' health and beauty. My utilities are included in my monthly rent and while I tried to calculate the yearly electrical cost based on info from the grow light manufacturer I can't tell how much my power usage increased as I added more lights. My estimate was about or less than $1 per week per grow light. My lights are on timers so the timers also use some power at additional cost. Thanks for all of your videos over so many years. It's fun to review your videos from your "Hawaii years". Best to you.

Hi Christine! I’m currently following your process exactly with the same plant and so far so good!! I’m hoping that next week I can move mine to soil. Can you please specify just how much water to use every 4 days? What is “smaller amount” for your plant? Maybe 1/4 cup or 1/2 cup? Thank you!!! ❤️

So happy you rescued the beautiful baby 🪴. It really has turned out gorgeous. Ty for sharing I am having trouble with mine 🪴and this really helps a lot. Hope your squirrel 🐿 is doing good. Have a great weekend. 😊

Many thanks for this video! Please tell about watering frequency - how soul should fill with my finger? Or with moisture meter? Thank you

It’s so pretty. Do you have any tips on keeping the variegation super white?

Thank you for this video. I purchased what it said was a birkin but it wasn’t it was a rojo congo but it was wobbly in the pot so thought just add more soil WRONG. Saw this video and thought take a closer look. The soil smelled like ammonia really stinky, the soil saturated. So quickly rinsed the roots, not many did your tips and have my fingers crossed. It was purchased at walmart, wish they knew how to water plants there.

Can you please list the products you use for the soil mix?

mine has signs of root rot even though I changed the soil to a type of soil for tropical plants... it had gnats in it and its still struggling... im going to take it out of the soil and inspect...

Do you use the same soil mixture for all your plants?

That plant is still gorgeous even with the root rot! What if all the leaves are gone and base of main stem is soggy? Is there hope of healthy leaves resprouting from just roots?

Hello, I'm brand new to plants. And I just bought my first plant (besides a few cactus I have)... And it is a philodendron Birkin. This is well 2, and the soil stiff feels really damp. I haven't watered since I got it as I tried to do as much research as I could to find out how to care properly. However today, after checking it out I noticed 2 of the small leaves underneath have yellow spots. I'm really worried about root rott. This plant is absolutely beautiful and I'm really trying to be a good plant mom so I feel safe buying some more. Do you think I should do what you have dun in this video. I'm nervous to repot especially since there is lots of snow on the ground and I knw you shouldn't repot in winter. Pls help me save my plant 🙏

Can my philodendron birkin live in water for the rest of its life or do it have to live in soil?

Where do you get your soil mix?

Hope the manager at Lowes gave you a discount for the Birkin.

Now we have vegans rescuing plants, this takes virtue signaling to a whole new level 😂
