Stacey Here We Grow Again
Hello and welcome to my channel! My name is Stacey and my husband's name is Mike. We have 3 french bulldogs named Bam Bam, Pebbles and Fiona and we live in Central Florida Zone 9b.
I'm a grower and plant collector that loves to help others when the growing gets tough. I love to try and make gardening just a little bit easier on all of you with the experiences I've learned over the years, so don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. I grow and collect both indoor and outdoor plants like succulents, cacti, air plants, many different varieties of house plants, vegetables, herbs and much more!
There is so much beauty in nature if we just take a little look around. I truly appreciate every single one of you and wish you great success in your growing adventures. I couldn't keep doing these videos if it wasn't for you watching and really wanted to thank you from the bottom of my pots!🦋🌱
You can also find me on Instagram and Twitter.

Hi Stacey! Thank you for doing this video. My Citronella is only about 2 months old, I bought it from Lowes. Actually, I bought 2. When you say before the mosquitoes come out, to spray the plant, I'm assuming just with a spray bottle and plain water. We have well water with many minerals, so usually as long as I remember to water them, my plants do well. You told me how to propagate, which I need to do soon, they are very leggy already. I'm really just not sure about how often to water and the spraying. Thanks again for a great video. I live in Tennessee 7b.
I water when the soil is almost dry but I don't let it dry out completely because it'll cause the leaves to droop and stress it. It likes a well draining moist soil medium but not overly saturated as it can cause a mushy stem. As for spraying the plant down, yes, with water, you want to be careful not to do this too often because keeping the leaves wet too often can cause diseases. You can just rub against the plant without spraying the leaves down if you want and it'll have the same effect. I just take a piece of leaf and rub it on my body, or I rub the plants leaves gently with my hands, like petting it almost to release the scent within the leaves. This is pretty effective. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching!
I saw my chicken running away with a load of ants once 😁🌿
Not the music😂😂😂😂😂
Hello, I have a cactus that when I reverse image search says it is a thimble cactus or mammilaria gracilis oruga. I see no green. It looks like a bunch of white puffballs and was spliced onto a vertically growing cactus when my mom originally got it. That part had long died so I cut it off where I knew it woud be dry & thought if I put the white thing on soil it would grow. That has not happened. Can I ask you for some help?
Excellent Stacey 😎We've got freezer bags full of homegrown strawberries at the moment, they'll be coming to an end soon.
Mmmm I love fresh picked Strawberries 🍓
I have a pigeon called Derek who waits for her breakfast every morning 🙂🦆
Interesting I never knew you could freeze eggs but a great idea of course I don’t have chickens so I don’t have to worry. Wonderful video a wonderful video. Thanks for the information. Love you, Stacey.❤ aunt Sandy
Pls pin
U never made mention on the use of the MagPro. U only spoke on the Bloom and Veg
Mag pro is for extra calcium
Love this posted it on FB too!
So happy you enjoyed the video 😊 I really appreciate you sharing!🤗
I need so much help glad I found your channel!!
So happy I could help 🤗 I'm always here if you need anything 😉
You’ve given good tips. I’m wondering if my mammoth sunflower is ready to harvest. As it was being filled in by the pollinators, it deformed the perfect round shape.It’s all filled in now, but I saw a pollinator near it. It has been drooping down while still being pollinated, but it stayed in that position as though it’s looking down at my big orange pumpkin constantly. It has been days now since it stopped following the sun. So, I’m unsure. But I do know for sure that I need to check it no later than today thoroughly to see if it needs to be cut down.
Hey Stacy, i dropped my pot and the whole plant just fell off. I dont see any roots on them, how can i revive my plant?
I would plant it in a good well draining succulent and cactus soil wait to water until roots start to grow.
Dumb music trying to learn how to cook tomato sauce not listen to a stupid country jam
How much sunlight do you suggest they get each day? And direct sunlight or no?
Yes, at least 6 to 8 hrs
Thank you SO MUCH for teaching me to trim off that top node so it will bush out more!!!! I appreciate you taking the time to make this video ❤
I just watched your video repotting shamrocks from 4yrs ago. How much soil did you add to the top of the plant?
Enough to cover the rhizomes 😊 About an inch
Fabulous, Thank you
Thank you so much for telling me exactly what a needed to know- without a 20 minute tutorial. ❤
Your welcome 😊 Glad I could help! This was actually the very first video I shared on my channel.. I do things a bit different now but the same methods still apply. I seperate them from the mother plant and plant them by themselves. I just wait for the offshoots to get a little bigger before separating them.. let them dry for a day or 2 and plant them in succulent soil with added drainage material. I like to put a thin layer of bonsai jack rocks on top to avoid rot. I've noticed my hens and chicks do a lot better when the leaves are not sitting directly on top of the soil.
Wow. Thank you so much for this info! My plant is growing very Chaotic and crazy. This was SO INFORMATIVE!! Going now to trim and propagate my plant!!!! 👏🏽
Your welcome!
Iam havin this on my knockout rose left a few shes bald right now 😢
I'm sorry to hear that. Have you tried neem oil treatments or hydrogen peroxide treatments?
Hi! I have an issue of small brown spots on my crassula gollum. The leaves are falling off and it's just getting worse. I tried a bit of alcohol because I wasn't sure if using a lot would make things worse...so it's okay to use a brush and spread it on all the leaves? I don't know what bug is it, could it be scales? Are any plant pests visible? I tried using a magnifying glass and I still don't notice something more than a spot. I am a complete beginner and I would like some plants to survive in my loft. Can I put diatomaceous earth in the soil for succulents?
Hi there. It sounds like it's maybe a disease called brown spot which is very hard to fix on these jades/crassula plants I'm not going to lie. It can spread to other plants easily, so I would quarantine it off from any other plants you might have.. I would treat the soil with a little hydrogen peroxide to kill off any possible diseases in the soil. Than I'd spray or wipe the leaves down with it too. I don't believe alcohol would work because you said pests are not visible. I only use alcohol when absolutely necessary because some succulents can have a bad reaction to it, not all. Jades seem to do ok with alcohol treatments, but over doing it can cause your leaves to die off. When treating any plants, I would suggest doing it when the heat isn't so intense and the sun isn't out. This way there's no chance of burning. For the hydrogen peroxide treatment I just use a few drops (about a 1/4 tsp per Quart of water). Water thoroughly, only when it's time to water though, you don't want to overwater. Succulents can be a learning curve but once you get the hang of things it'll get easier. Is it in a good well draining cactus and succulent potting mix? Did you add extra drainage material like perlite or pumice to the soil? That's key to healthy succulents. 😊 If your uncomfortable with using hydrogen peroxide you can purchase and use neem oil and spray the leaves lightly with the solution once every 7 days and see if that helps. If the hydrogen peroxide doesn't work I usually like to try the neem oil. Hope this helps! I'm here if you need anything. Sorry your gollum jade is not doing so well. It sounds like black spot to me, not a pest.. but it's hard to tell what it is without seeing the plant. The best of luck!
Oh what cute chickens running around you really love them. Take such good care of them. They’re so happy.
How much
How much
Please come back and show us and thank you ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi, How old were they when you let them free range? I am a new chicken mom in central Florida. My kids are almost 7 weeks old.
Hi there. I would say about 4 weeks on...I kept the baby chicks in a smaller space, enclosed away from my adult hens until they were old enough and big enough to defend themselves against the flock. I would suggest keeping them totally enclosed outdoors when free ranging just because of all the predators that can pick them up during the day. I never leave babies unattended outside and always check on them constantly to make sure nothing messes with them. They can be a bit vulnerable at such a young age. Hope this helps!
Thanks for info. How much do you water your propagation
Your welcome! Thanks for stopping in! I let the soil dry out almost completely to the bottom before watering again. I try not to let it dry out all the way because the leaves will start to wilt. You'll want to water before that happens. How many times a week you water will all depend on the conditions it's growing in or if it's dormant or actively growing.
Aww, happy chickens 😊 Mine lived in the house while I was building it, used to wake me up early every morning 🙄🙄😁😁
U R A GEM
Watched 4 videos seeking info. Got more infor from yours, enjoyed listening a watching. OJT "On the job traning" leaf nodes knowledge, approx 4' length cut, clean shears a MUST, Water propagation not as favorable, how to use plant for "ankle biters" Excellent teacher. I'll subscribe TY so much.
So happy you enjoyed the video ❤️ Glad I could help! Thanks for being here!
I got a citronella & have kept it inside so far - want to propagate - Thank you for info - so far its growing leaps & bounds under grow lights. Do you ever boil a few leaves to make spray
I've never boiled them to make a spray but I'm sure you could 😊 Sounds like a good experiment. I want to learn how to start extracting the oils from different plants and herbs. I think that'll be so fun!
@StaceyHerewegrowagain the reel I saw says boil 1 cup water, shut burner off & add 4-5 leaves, & put lid on for 2 hours. Then 1.1 of citronella liquid with witch hazel or alcohol. I haven't tried yet but plan to today
Thanks for the video! I’m a landscaper and I planted one for my boss and it’s gotten huge! I just trimmed a few little branches off to prop for my home. South Louisiana mosquitos are no joke 😂
I bet lol. The mosquitoes are terrible where I live too. They will carry you away at night. Huge too! Lol
At what point do you talk about pickle worm control??
I use bt thuricide and spray my plants leaves 1x every 7 days when caterpillars are actively feeding.. I spray following the directions on the product. The amount you mix per gallon will all depend on the brand you buy. I get this one: Southern Ag Thuricide BT Caterpillar Control, 16oz - Pint a.co/d/hnkxADA you can purchase it anywhere you like. Not sure where I said it in the video but I know I mentioned it. This video is a lot older and I do things a little different now. Please remember these videos I make are to help people in need and I don't ask for anything in return other than respecting one another. Hope this helps and I answered your question thoroughly. Thank you for stopping by.
Thanks Stacey
Stacey your girls are so pretty.
Thank you! I hatched 5 of them a few years ago, They're getting so big. Very friendly too. Thanks for stopping in! 😊
This is sooo nice.. I once had chickens but they got attacked by a pack of dogs for over 2 weeks until I lose all of them. I miss them sooo much.
Aww, I'm so sorry to hear that 😔
Hi Stacey , you have a beautiful channel and you are very knowledgeable about succulents. I like it here!!! and I just subscribed as well... thanks for sharing.☺
Hi there 😊 Thank you so much, it's great to meet you! I'm so happy your enjoying my channel. I appreciate you stopping by!
I didn’t realize chickens enjoyed being watered. First time in a few years that I stopped by. 😊
They kind of surprised me with how much they liked it lol. They come running whenever they see the hose now. When it's extremely hot like it's been the chickens like it. Otherwise, chickens usually don't like to get wet. It's great to see you, hope all is well with you Gary 😊
Hey everyone! I hope you enjoyed the video. Don't forget to subscribe if you want to stay updated on more videos to come in the future. Your support means so much to us! My chickens absolutely love to run under the hose and cool themselves off as I'm spraying their run down. This does not hurt them and they appreciate it (as you can see in this video). Please do not spray any Chickens directly because most of them do not like to get wet. They will come to you if they want to get a sprinkle. 😊 I only do this in the summer when temperatures reach above 85°f. It's important to cool them off a few times a day to avoid heat stress. Thanks for watching! ❤
Stacey tonight to hear your voice, I love all your chickens running around and the way you keep them cold given them a little shower. I love you and miss you. Love to you, Mike and all your fur babies and your feather babies.
They love the hose lol. I also give them frozen treats to help cool their body temperatures. Love to you too ❤️
What’s it looks inside and seeds.
It's similar to dragon fruit, white meaty inside with black oval seeds 😊
Lowe's ain't ever watered a succulent they will sell them for a dollar, half dead before they never water them ! Yea I buy them and save them
Exactly the video I was looking for. Thank you
Glad I could help! Thanks for stopping in!
Stacey love so nice to see you back on Facebook. I love you. Thank you for the information about eggs. I never knew that love to you, Mike and your fur babies and all the little Chickies miss you. Love you.
Hey Aunt Sandy. Yes, I've been trying to get things back in gear as much as I can. I've missed everyone. Glad I could pass along some information about the eggs. I find it very helpful when trying to seperate all my eggs the girls lay in a week lol. I have more than I know what to do with. Love to you xoxo
