Plant Stories ep 3 my herb garden, plant shelf styling, IKEA greenhouse prep, and more!
I’m back! Hello again and welcome to another episode of chill and calming plant vlog content 😎 In this video I show you guys my hydroponic herb garden, then I take you guys with me on a quick trip to a local market with all the cute décor and plant accessories, then we chop my favorite plant! 😱 Can you guess what it is??
And the highlight - my new plant shelf! I finally had a chance to put it together this past week and I am so happy with it. I show you guys how I style it and what I think about when I am setting up a new plant shelf, from practical tips to styling tips. What do you guys think? 😄
I also moved my anthurium seedlings from their plastic bin to their own little IKEA greenhouse, and I go over how I weather seal it.
And because I get a ton of questions about the Grow Thiccly poles on a regular basis, I show how I use mine for extensions and how I water it, too.
I hope you enjoy this episode!

I really like your video style 🙂👍 (a mix of little things like taking care of your plants, maintaining, styling them, as well as the products that you use.).

It´s insane that you only started with KZread a few weeks ago because the quality of your videos are SO GOOD! I really love the cozy feeling that your videos have. Perfect for the most cozy time of the year fall and Christmas. I love this idea of show some things from the passing week. You made everything come together so nicely in this video.

Well done! Your plant shelf looks beautiful. I completely agree on the vertical space between shelves being a consideration. Plants grow! I watched your other video with the Thiccly poles and ended up ordering some myself. I added my first one this weekend. I really like them. One thing I particularly liked is that I could put the pole down in the pot and fill the part that goes under the soil with soil! Then I added the moss only on the section above the soil level. It's really easy to push the moss down into the pole even after it's folded into form. I also want to say that your hack for using wire to hold up the leaves has been a game changer for me. Thanks!
@HerPlantStories
Жыл бұрын
ahhh yay!!! Yes, that's one of the many reasons why I love the Thiccly poles and why I've switched almost exclusively to them for all my plants! I also install mine the same way - pouring soil in first them stuffing with moss later on, I just use a really long stick to incrementally shove the moss in hahaha! And the poles are super stable too, if installed correctly. So glad you like their poles! I will pass it on to them 😁 And I'm happy the wire hack works for you too!
I wish I could get you to style my plants and apartment :O you have such an impeccable styling sense also i love your fox cup!

I only use the Light Dim strips if I know the plants are going to be growing close to the lights! They do reduce the intensity of the light so yes, the plants will be getting less light. If your light is far enough from the plants, you don't need to use the Dim strips 😁

@HerPlantStories
Жыл бұрын
I am pretty lucky because they ignore the plants for the most part! I find cats in general seem to be drawn to trailing plants, dangling plants, and grass like plants. So those plants I keep higher up or out of reach. I also grow cat grass for them in their own pot and they would much rather nibble on that than my houseplants; I think cats are naturally drawn to grass because that is what they nibble on in the wild to aid their digestion 😁 and finally, I just give them both equal attention! Sometimes they like to give my plants a test chomp whenever they feel like I've been ignoring them, it's like they know it'll catch my attention haha! Hope this helps!

I really need help reporting this Crystallinum I’m reporting this moment. I can’t find any videos on detailed repotting and what to do if leaves turn yellow on anthuriums when’s it okay to cut them and where do I cut them? I also have no idea why the roots like to grow on top of the pot even if there not ready to be repotted. Etc etc so many questions . I am so stressed right now I wish I could call you for help!! LOL
@HerPlantStories
Жыл бұрын
anthurium are actually climbers and semi epiphytic, that's why you see the roots growing above the soil line even though it's not time for a repot! What you can do is wrap some damp moss around the nodes - similar to a climbing philodendron - or you could even give it a pole but they dont climb fast enough to warrant that. Repotting it is the same as any regular houseplant, but you wanna just make sure your mix is chunky and well draining, but still able to hold on to enough moisture between waterings. I don't have a specific recipe for my mix but a lot of good ones come up when you google "chunky aroid mix". An easy alternative is just to use regular potting mix - I recommend Pro mix - then amend it by adding some chunky perlite and orchid bark to give it a bit more aeration! For yellowing, that is normal if it's an older leaf, this is called leaf senescence and it's a natural process of the plant shedding older leaves to recycle it for new growth. I usually let those yellow and fall off naturally. If you choose to cut, just cut under the base of the leaf and not too far down the stem because new leaves may come out from the stem and you don't want to cut that off. If the yellow is happening on newer leaves or is random, you might have a watering problem or a pest problem. Diagnosing is hard to do online so you will have to observe on your own and trace your steps to see what may have gone wrong to cause your plant to yellow, and once you figure out the cause then you can treat accordingly 😁 Hope this helps a bit!

I think plants should enhance the living space and not take over it or look unkempt. I really dislike some setups people have - hoards of plastic nursery pots with leggy plants placed in dark corners. I think plants deserve good light and a nice pot.
