Daz! Thank you so much. Yeah I love your content and can’t wait to see this video. I am gearing up to come back with more content.

Oh man! Sorry to hear that. I hate that. Hopefully he reaches out and fixes things.

I don’t, I’m not sure if I’m familiar with that species. I’ve had several bloom that have a similar scent and man I gotta say, not a fan haha. Thank you for watching!

@@indigomixa thank you for watching! I have found that lower temps 70-80 and higher humidity, 70%-80% consistently have helped when they were younger.

@@rockyfern thank you so much!

Thanks for watching! What do you mean?

@rockyfern because you mentioned that you grow the Playcerium outdoors Just wondering

I grow them outside, as far away from Florida while still being in the US haha I grow them in the small island of Kaua’i, Hawaii. Do you grow any Platycerium?

@rockyfern that explains the coconut I have 5 species Next month I will receive 3 more Just started about 6 months ago I live in South America, the republic of Suriname Former Dutch colony Just under the equator The Grande is a slow grower as well as the Madagascariensis The Superbum, Wandae and Ridley are doing great That's the reason I ordered a few more

Amazing! Being equatorial, I bet you have no issues growing tropical with an abundance of humidity. You think you’ll create some videos to show off your collection? I’d be interested to see yours! I’m working on an update vid.

I hated it! Luckily I still have 2 nice sized seedlings. Thank you for watching.

Aloha! Thank you for watching

I have played around with doing both and have found that there is little difference. I now just leave it. Thank you for watching!

@rockyfern Do you remove it later on, or do you just completely leave it that way. Is not gonna hurt the plants later on ?

@@ratgirl44 I find that a photo period is crucial

It varies but for alocasia it’s usually a mix of larger pumice, compost, coco chunks, rice husks and lava rock. What do you use?

@@rockyfernmake a video please

⁠@@rockyfernlooks like you used perlite compost and coco chunks for your frydek. am i wrong?

I’d love to see this silver version!😍

Wow! 🤩 thank you

Thank you so much. Gearing up to show some more videos. Hope you like them too

Thank you for watching!

Hasta thank you

Thank you for watching!

Oh man! You are absolutely right. Absolutely a figure of speech, albeit a dangerous one. That is crazy that even external exposure has such a fierce reaction. Thank you for sharing, that is crazy!

How?!!! Haha you definitely need to! Tell me which one you end up getting! This is so exciting.

I think there is a lot of debate on this still. From what I have seen, there is still a divide between the reclassification. I believe is within the last handful of years that this has been proposed, but yes it would be for the entire genus, would be my guess.

Thank you! I couldn’t imagine one of my kids getting into this spurge!

@@rockyfern mine was a rambunctious little tiger :)

They’re so common, it’s crazy the spicy secret they possess. 🤯

Cacti have spines that are in a circle, and glochids, that’s how you know.

@@TheC3. Right, cacti spines grow from “areoles”, as well, compared to the permanent, hard structures of euphorbias, such as the ones seen in the video, or the giant _Euphorbia ingens_ or _ammak_ (candelabra trees). I like to compare cactus spines to deer antlers, and all other succulents with THORNS to rhino or antelope horns. Antlers/spines grow seasonally, fall out, and regenerate from areoles; meanwhile horns/thorns are permanent, bony structures (or keratin, lol) growing from the actual plant core or animal’s bones. Also, you can tell because the cactus family (Cactaceae) are 99% New World species-minus one from Africa-& most of the “weird”-looking Euphorbias are Old World plants, mainly from Madagascar, South Africa, the Arabian Peninsula & India. Cacti are basically all American, from the more desert species like _Mammillaria_ (pincushions), _Opuntia_ (prickly pears) & _Echinocactus grusonii_ (golden barrel), to the tropical _Schlumbergera_ (Xmas cactus) & _Rhipsalis_ in the Amazon and eastern Brazil, _Epiphyllum_ (orchid cactus) in Mexico, to _Trichocereus_ (San Pedro cactus) and _Cereus azureus_ (Brazilian blue torch).

Thank you all for the info on how to ID cactus versus euphorbia. I appreciate knowing this😊

@@kathrynrobinson670 Yeah, Friend, cheers!

Thank you! It’s been a blast seeing the micro verse 🤩🤯

Thank you! It’ll be cool to look back in a year and see progress.

Heck yeah!!! The pups get big and I can’t wait for to smell the flowers!

This particular plant is in laterite, akadama and sand I think. How are yours going?

@@rockyfern they are small still and I have them sitting under a window right now I haven’t water them since I got them but the soil was moist when I put them in it

Oh for sure! Especially even you get into the smaller varieties! Which do you have?

Daz! Thank you. It’s an incredible plant. I’d love to see these grow in your care!

Thanks for visiting! It’s such a cool flower

It really is! I love it. Thank you for watching

lol it really is!!!

Right?!!!! I freaking love this thing. Once it gets bigger, hit me up! We can do a cutting!

WOW! Thank you for the love! I would so much enjoy seeing your outdoor garden! I bet it's amazing! As far as fungal gnats go, the product that works for me the best is 'Mosquito bits'. I've really only ever needed to apply it once! It's a bacteria that targets the larvae and honestly I couldn't say enough good things about it! I will say that having a ton of Pinguiculas has helped a ton too lol. My issue is fruit flies! Mealy bugs are horrible, I will say that I don't switch out my soil or isolate, but that's what has worked for me. I know other plant keepers that have to or they will overtake the collection. I think my success has been from weekly spray downs of neem oil/ Castile soap and a systemic granular. I really enjoyed reading this comment, It is the longest I've ever received and it made me smile! Good luck with your Hoyas! I'd love to see some pics!

Thank you so much. I will!!!! Wait for tomorrow’s vid. It’s a good one!

Thank you bro!

Thank you!

I can’t get enough! Haha thank you for watching. What’s your favorite?

@@rockyfern I love the color and shape of Moonshine, common but never tire of it 😎

Thank you! Happy Easter to you and yours as well Jillian!

Thank you! Yes of course. Any aroid in particular?

@@rockyfern your monsterias on poles

Thank you! I feel like the thumbnails take as much time as the video hahah hopefully yours will bloom this year🤞🏽🤞🏽

Hey! Thank you so much! Do you keep this Hoya too?

I finish your first episode, and I think it should be a good series to follow. Yes, I keep Hoya. Just got 17 new cuttings off of my wish list gifted to me from a friend. Been slowly building my collection over the past five years.

@@joelh6514 oh heck yeah! Thank you for listening! Think you’ll showcase your collection on YT?

Thanks for watching and asking a great question. Where are you located? More importantly, what are your ambient conditions? I find this begonia to like consistency. Temps:75-85 and regular watering without being too damp and 60% humidity. I have lost 1 or 2 props but I think that was down to too much water with all the rain we got.

@@rockyfern I live in Northern Italy, but I would keep it inside. Unfortunately the humidity inside my house is not that high. I could probably try first with lots of mist, and gradually changing also the soil. The terrarium is only moss spagnum and it works great in keeping humidity.

Thank you! I doing both parents are sore SLOW lol. Beautiful though haha

Thank you for watching and commenting!

I forget if you told me where in the country you are, but Vermont Hoyas said 12 hour photoperiod was his trick to blooming. I hope that helps. Thank you for watching!

Thank you! Right?! You could spend a few lifetimes delving into this family and never get bored!

Thank you Donna! As soon as it’s put on some size, I’ll definitely show her off.

Thank you for watching Donna. It’s nuts how diversified this family is! It has a ton of charm for sure!
