- Dear plant lovers,
If you are ever curious about how I manage to water over 1,000 plants in my tiny Indonesian home, this is an episode for you to watch. I divulge watering techniques, and secret tricks across many plant species and living environments.
I start of with foliar spray for orchids and hoyas, then show you how to properly water tillandsias, better known as airplants.
My favorite part is when I hose down my green wall, drenching them in watery goodness!
I share watering tips for water-sensitive plants like anthuriums and aglaonemas, as well as plants in my critical care section
Since it rained on us, I digressed by sharing with you exactly why rain water is much more superior than our tap water.
We spend a bit of time outdoors, showing you how to water carnivorous plants, bromeliads, and more.
Finally, I spend a bit of time with watering my platycerium, showing you a lazyman’s hack to water them!
The full episode is in the description, see you there!

Haha thank you. Im blushing now 🙈 as I dont own a TV ive not seen myself on the big screen before
I just thinking about my place to decored like your house but the problem its cool here. It’s nice to see your house and I ❤ it. 😁👍👍👍
Thank youuu ❤️ I would like to think of my collection to belong to all of us too.
thats a lot of plants! hahaha an electric sprayer might come in handy.
watering is definitely very therapeutic 😁
Yesss my favorite part of the week!
thanks for a delightful tour...cool to see familiar green smiles I have in my collection....enjoy ☘️😊🍀
😀😀🪴
Ahhhhhh THANK YOU!!!! I always LOVE your home tours!!! Finally I get to see your wonderful front lawn area and garage balcony area!!!! So satisfying!!! You've replicated a rain forest really well in your backyard area and your watering routine does indeed look fun! I could have watched another whole hour haha 😊😊😊
Thank youuu. Actually… I rennovated all my gardens after filming this. It will look radically different 😀
@@onlyplants Hurrah! So I can look forward to another tour of my favourite areas! 😄😂😊
I love watering and fussing with my plants. So relaxing ❤
Watering feels very nurturing and giving. Its so good for the soul
Great video, lots to learn from you. Thanks for sharing with us all.
Thank you 🩷🩷
loved ur vlog. i love ur home, i wish ur home was an Airbnb so i could live in it for some time and then by the end of it i would take LOADS of cutting with myself to propogate them 😉
Haha thank you 🥰
🙊🙊
18:52 I used to have a balcony with full of aglonemas, big2 pot of aglonema. And one day we found a big snake sleep there between my aglonema😂. So now i try to organizing my plant no too bushy 😂
Hahaaa omg how did it get to your balcony!
Wow Sean, your front garden has really filled in. I remember when you were planting it 😀🇨🇦
Haha yes. And… I rennovated it after filming this episode. Its so cute now I cant wait to show it!
Hoya "Let it gooo, let it gooo, let it gooo!" 😅😂😂lol
🙈🙈
Hahaha 😅 side note🎉 appreciate you and your videos! I've learned so much from you🎉🎉🎉 pray blessings over you!💙🩵💙🩵
Thanks for the great video Sean. I really enjoy watching the videos you make of your personal collection.
Love from Australia
Thank you ❤️❤️
I love how you water so effortlessly, I wish I could do the same but I don't have a plant room where I can just spray without completely dousing my living room!
Theres some calm and beauty in watering each pot too. I used to do that and it was my favorite plant care
This was so interesting, such a nice variety of plants, thank you 🌱🌵🌿🪴
Thank you ❤️❤️
So much of hard work.👍👍👍..... Great collection... Love your garden 😍
Thank you ❤️❤️
I stopped measuring my fertilizer long ago. After measuring for so long I just memorized how much I should use 👍
Yes, in nature theres no measurements too! Just dont overfertilize.
Thank you for the awesome video 😊
❤️❤️ thank you
Yay! Another informative video! I think this length is really great for some of your viewers/times when we only have a few minutes. Thanks again! 🤗
Thank you ❤️❤️
Actually you need to water Bromeliad soil as well because if they are planted in soil they have roots. Growing them mounted is a different story.
Nice episode...
Thank you 😀😀
Waiting for your hoyas propagation video 💚🙋🏽♀️
Whoaaaa Ill try to make some. Ive been propagating my hoyas actually
so educational! I always wonder how it takes you to water ALL of your plants! so tedious lol
Haha 1-2 hours a day! And another 1-2 hours of repotting and plant care etc
@@onlyplants sounds meditative for you though :)
🌱🌱🌱
🥹❤️❤️
Какая роскошная коллекция!Интересно.вы когда-нибудь считали сколько у вас горшков с растениями?
Nope but it might be in the thousands. Maybe less now that Ive downsized and given a lot away.
Hello from romania
Hellooo
Can you use foliar fertilizer for all houseplants? There isn't much info online on foliar spray.
If I were to water all my plants in my home in one day it would take me 5 hours. it would be so much easier/quicker if I could just hose them down but of course I do so in my outdoor greenhouse.
Yes omg indoor watering… is crazy. I used to do that when I had less than 50 plants.
🖤
❤️❤️
Omg I want to use a hose to water my inside plants! I have a gallon pump sprayer but the hose would be more fun. For the furniture, not so much though…🌿
Haha someone need to design waterproof furniture for this purpose 🙈🙈
Ever consideration an automated sprinkler system? Or misting?
Yes but that kinda takes the fun away a little. It also does not accommodate to other factors like weather changes.
I use a hose in my appartment too. Started with having to carry at least 50liters of water to thr valcony every day on sunny day, was nuts. Now when i have lots of mosspoles its perfect to moister them up every other day as well as the regularn plants. Only time i use a can is when i fertilize
Whoaaa hose in an apartment. Must be quite the jungle. ❤️❤️
😂 Well my balcony is for sure. People stop and stare walking past. And when talking to people in the neighborhood and you tell them where ypu live they go -Oh so youre the one with the balcony 😂
Its glassed in and i put in wood floor with isolation beneath so its quite warm, also sun beyween 11am to 7pm
But yeah... lots of plants indoors too. Always been into plants but for almost ten years we went away each summer all summer to our summer place, meaning i couldnt really keep too much at home. So I'm still on my way growing plants up again, meaning i have A LOT but most are still fairly small. Livingroom alone is 32 plants at the moment 😂 South facing windows 4.5meters wide and 1.2 high. Recently built custom sized plant tables to fit my larger plants that no longer could fit in the windows and those that needed a bit less light.
At the moment building pidestals for my 1.2m (4 feet) high Zamioculcas zamiifolia because their 35cm wide pots cant fit on the window zill any more 😂
Garden hoses that expand and shrink is gold 😂
I usually water my plants between 6 to 8 am. I adjust the time if the sun is already up that early.
Yes the time matters 🥹 and not many people take this into account.
Only plants ❤❤ I love the name
Thank you ❤️❤️
People have been making moss extensions on top of the soil around the extending stem of anthuriums to help them stay moist, I add it to the top of the soil around my alocasias and when the moss dries, I water a little
I have no idea how you keep track of everything you have there, approx 100 plants is my limit to provide good care
I dont always keep on top of all of them 🫣 Some are on the struggle bus but Im starting to train my gardener better
Thank you for talking about your air plant. I did soak it every week, but didn't know that it had to be dried off. Nothing I read said that. Well last week it died :( and it was doing so well.
Awww… try again! They really thrive with good airflow too keep that in mind 😀
@@onlyplants Thank you for your reply.
What do you think of an idea where you can provide plant care services when people go for vacations/hometowns. You pick the plants, take care of them and drop it when they are back
It sounds like a good service. Like a pet hotel but this time its a plant hotel
@@onlyplants Thanks for the feedback.
Would be helpful if you can post this as a community poll in your channel
Buat area sekulen bang
Udahhh. Nanti ada video desertscaping nya 😀😀 I cant wait
Where do you put all your propagation? Do you keep them all?
Yes! Actually im on a propagation frenzy now. We will see a transformation of my entire living space soon
How often do you water all your plants outside? It’s so dry and hot right now in Canada that leaving my plant outside means watering it every day
Everyday but to varying amounts. Those shaded from the rain definitely daily. It is warm and windy out. If we hang our clothes out to dry it takes a few hours to completely dry. 😀
Will u hire me i can take care of all your plants full time🥺
🙈🙈
Yay, gonna be the first comment! Thank you for sharing your watering schedule of plants. Quite a collection you have, I must admit.
Thank you ❤️❤️
That brown staghorn fern looks like it's dried up. Is it supposed to be brown?
Yes their shield front will dry up and replaced by a new green one 😀 they are quite interesting beings
Do u move your succulents in the haus when it's rainy season?
I dont 🙈 only half of them survive actually. Ive killed so many 🥲
@@onlyplants aw.... So in really not alone...lol.... I can't grow a resilient aloe vera, imagine?!
Man 😮 you are living in a jungle!!! Lovely plant collection but u will have to rearrange them so as to make plant caring easy. But feel like u have to have a living space ....this house is overcrowded with plants. But sooo many wonderful Plants.
Yesss I im actually rennovating hard now to manage it better and have it look nicer. I will show update soon!
hey sean! since you use a fair bit of chemicals in your watering regime - do you ever worry about the side effects on yourself (from handling it) lol
Thats an excellent question! I make all natural bar soaps to avoid chemicals, yet I handle so much of it in my gardening. Im worried about it but Im also ok with it knocking off 2-3 years of my lifespan 😅
@@onlyplants the sacrifices we make for our plant babies 😅
my skin is visibly darker too.. can see the difference from the outline of the flip flops on my feet! 🩴
Takes me 2-3 hours to water my plants. 😂
🫣🫣 sometimes its scary when we think about it haha
@@onlyplants yasss!!! 😅
I think the only problem in this video is that when you say just I Wallet, there are going to be people who think putting in half a bottle of fertilizer is needed for a big jug of water and they could burn the roots so probably wanna be a little more specificso people don’t hurt their plants
It is not a problem anymore thanks to you. 🤠
Wooh I think some common sense have to come in 😅 maybe read the label to know approximate amount, and then eye-ball it
But you do raise an interesting point, maybe people in general cannot be trusted with these things
@@onlyplants Sean, if people have plants it is their responsibility to read labels on their fertilizers and certain plants may not always want fertilizers everyday. People need to learn their own plant care needs just like what you have done. What works for you there in hot Indonesia would be different care needs in some other countries. It is all based on trial and error.
@@user-rv4jw4qr7z good point. I remember when I first started I had no idea how to do it and was consistently confused by how much of these things could be given. I got really generous with measurements and burned some of my plants with it.
Have you ever considered doing your video shirtless?
That would be ridiculous. No one would learn anything.
Haha in one episode I did do a funny strip tease 🙈
You need to buy electric rechargeable water pump, trust me it will save your arm
I used to have one but the jet spray wasnt too strong and it broke down after a few months 🥹 I feel bad for the electric parts and batteries that pollutes
I’m always amazed that so many planty people do not keep name labels or tags with the plants…and then can’t remember the name! 🪴
Haha yes. At some point I did remember them but in many cases I bought them with no or wrong ID 🙈
Can you use foliar fertilizer for all houseplants? There isn't much info online on foliar spray.
Yes! I will make a dedicated episode soon. Theres some interesting science!
