I paused to say you are NOT a nobody. Your content has done nothing but bring smiles and knowledge to the plant community. I love your videos, and so many others do too. Thank you for all of your hard work! 💚
Thanks so much. Just bought B1 today and applied them not knowing if they’re effective. So watching this video is a relief! 😇 thought I wasted my money!
Great experiment and very nice leaves.. As a researcher... I would also add on maybe 2 more b1 plants at increasing concentrations. Cos there maybe a dose dependent effect and you may get more of a difference at a higher dose of b1 🤷🏼♂️
I know this is OOT but I come across your channel multiple times. NGL your cute, glowy face and hairstyles that same as mine right now. Intrigued me the most! Your content also have the simpler explanation and on point. Love you, and definitely subbed! ❤️
I used the liquid bird vitamin B complex which contains almost all B vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin K and biotin. Its effects on my plants were extremely good. It revived my plants in a day and they are shining bright and healthy. They were under salt stress for some fime so had dehydrated and drooping leaves. Vitamin supplementation made them much stronger and capable of handling salt stress and bounce back. I applied the highly diluted solution to the leaves but I imagine it can be also applied to the soil. One note is be careful because it's insanely attractive to insects so you might increase the pest amount in your plants.
I use Superthrive. That has the B vitamins, doesn’t it? I see definite results using it as opposed to not using it. Especially when transplanting.Thanks for the video. 👏🏼
you are definitely not a nobody...a lot of people are thankful for your videos, your updates and your experiments. thank you for your content they help me with my plants A LOT!!
Another great vid new idea! Experimenting! Love it -- I am also driven by curiosity and why the hell am I spending money on plant feeds! But yeah, this is proof! For B1 I am all smiles 😊 Do more please and hope the move is getting sorted well
Enjoyed this! Bought some B1 today to try with new pepper transplants. Good friend recommended it to me in spite of several UC master gardeners telling me it does not do anything. I will testg and see.
As far as I know, B1 is essential for mitochondria which are the powerhouse of all cells, but normally in plants they use this during night to burn sugar as energy, since daytime they get energy from from the Sun.. B1 is used to effectively breakdown sugar & it may play other role which I'm unaware of. But chance of knowing if plants can use it or not is unclear, but even if plants can't use it, pretty sure soil bacteria would.. But not all soil bacteria are bad. It may or may not be of any benefits to plants. Plant probiotic are a interesting product to explore.
Thank you for getting this information out. I've really thought of this alot. They a few different pills that we could use, in particular we choose the expired pills. I decided to use multivitamin because they do contain minerals.. Even if the vitamin is not used by plants, It maybe can used by soil bacteria or fungus.. Sometime they are good bacteria in the soil of plant that can help them grow better... Besiding vitamins we can use mineral-type pills like iron, zinc, calcium, magnesium, it also said aspirin can help with plant defense to tolerate stress because it's a derivative of salicylic acid. But all of these can't be over used, it seem plant can't tolerate to much nutrient or salicylic acid but aspirin need to be processed first to spray on leaf.. Betaine is another form that could be found in vitamin, that can promote plant defense & tolerance. But vitamin may make the soil organic. But one important note, using these things might change the pH of the soil.. It interesting to experiment with these things to find out the result.
Wooh I would use very small doses of those vitamins. Because plants only need so very little of them. The main nutrients plants need is nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium
Ok, I think I understand why B1 boost the rooting. See the stem, leaf & other parts of the plant above the ground are basically all green because they contain chloroplasts, but the roots lack chloroplasts but only contain it secondary organelle "mitochondria". B1 is normally used to metabolize sugar as energy within the mitochondria, these sugar are transported from the leaf to the roots, by giving it B1 you give the root more energy by effectively breakdown sugar & promote root growth. Well this the only way it could be explained.
Actually if you use liquinox start, it has another component that is a growth hormon for the root (the synthetic form of auksin), that's why you could see the difference in their root, that's my theory
Pick any 2 plants. One will always be bigger and better than the other. You have a 50% chance. If you want to REALLY test something you need replicates. A minimum of 3 plants untreated versus 3 plants treated. You also have to make sure they are mixed together, not lined up by group as one group will invariably be nearer the light source, water source, drafts, heat etc. That will ruin your experiment. I would suggest 5 each group to be sure, all mixed together, and the order of placement changed every week (i.e. shuffle them around weekly to randomize placement location). That would be a more fair and unbiased experiment. Then if your 5 treated ones are bigger/better than the 5 untreated (well, use water as a negative control to be fair), once you average everything, your result will be a real result. Currently your result is the same as flipping a coin, one will always be better than the other when you pick any 2 things to compare side-by-side.
B1 is well known and use widely in Thailand, B1 helps when you have a fresh propagated plants but not on any mature plants. Not sure im using the correct proportionate of the dosage or it just wont work..
Vitamin B1 will have a lot or less helpful that is really depends the location and weather. In Las Vegas, the weather is really hot in summer and very dry air. So the plants also stressful just like human. If you put Vitamin B1 solution in the plants, it's really helpful. Like this blogger, his location may not be that dry, so the benefit of Vitamin B1 is not so obvious.
Hi, Kak Sean!!! Kalo menurutku sih Vit.B1 itu yang asli warnanya kuning keruh dan aromanya menyengat. Kalo yang abal² biasanya warnanya lebih bening dan ga terlalu menyengat utk aromanya. Aku juga pake vit. B1 saat tanaman aku ganti ke pot baru, saat tanaman sedang stress, saat aku propagasi pakai Water Propagation atau pke media spagnum moss dan juga aku pake utk campuran pupuk saat penyiraman. Ini pengalaman pribadiku selama pakai Vit.B1 dan mereka tumbuh dengan baik. Salam Lestari.
Thanks Lestari. I’m sure they do something for the plant… and iya banyak brands B1 kayaknya. One famous nursery recommend this one as the original, but its hard to say whos right 😅 but I guess plants do well without B1 juga as long as they are cared for properly. 😀😀
very good. if you dont want gnats, stop using bark/wood as media. i've gone to chunky pumice for all my indoor plants and they're all doing very well. it's expensive but permanent media, excellent in both providing moisture and aeration to roots. some people get by using scoria or such, which is much cheaper, buth those do not store water at all. more aeration to roots of indoor plants has been a game changer for me. no more dead organic matter that either becomes hydrophobic or alternately compacted and soggy. no more gnats.
@@onlyplants : if one insists on sticking to using dead organic matter as potting media, then both peat and coir are candidates that dont attract gnats, as they dont rot quickly. however i've personally moved on from those to inorganic materials. dead organic matter that is decomposing is good fungus food. we've been duped to thinking otherwise. bark is cheap short term media for the seedlings trade.
As another poster noted, I wonder whether effect could be dose dependent? Or frequency dependent? The greater difference between plants seems to have occurred earlier on, closer to transplant time? If so, maybe the B1 remediated some of the stress from Transplant? All things being equal for equally strong plants, transplant shock may have been negligible and need for a mediating vitamin not really a thing. IF shovk was more drastic, I wonder if results would be more detectable. Might test next time have a rough transition for weak plants.
thank you for sharing this Sean... I tried B1 for several time, but never on regular basis... so the results might be bias from time to time, but I think I will continue to use B1 until the last drop... one thing that caught my eyes : what kind of fruit you have there in the upper right side on your video? 😂😂😂 is it POMELO or something else?
super video thank you, can i also use vitamin b for orchids? how many tab. per liter of water? please answer my question that i can take better care of my orchids, thank you.
Yes you can. Ive not measured before, always eye ball it. But the instructions should be on the bottle if you want to be precise! I do about 1-2% dilution to be safe.
Interesting :) Have you ever tried willow water as a natural rooting hormone? I have tried it several times on my vandas and other plants, I just mix some in, in my vanda soaking water and the roots do grow well after. However I never did an experiment with a control plant specimen.
This might be better if you had used poor soil. Like plain sand or something. Then it might be easier to see if the vit b helps at all. If you use good soil anyway, it might be harder to see much of a difference.
@@onlyplants great idea!! I have been wondering about this too myself, please do film one as I prefer to just use regular bulbs. Also how high or low could they be to start to be effective at all?
Id you have good potting soil and whats needed at potting and then feed durning growing season that should be good enough if you water right and give it the right light.
I had few grape transplants, then my father asked to water/spray some Vit B1 on it, it got me curious if that actually works. Do you have any thought about how much we need to use B1 dilution for each watering session? Thanks again for the video!
I dont know dilution ratio exactly but it should be stated on the bottle… I kinda eye ball it when I use it… maybe 0.5-1% dilution sounds reasonable and safe.

By 1942 even the original author of the study admitted that vitamin B1 had no positive effect on plant growth and said “It is now certain, however, that additions of vitamin B1 to intact growing plants have no significant or useful place in horticultural or agricultural practice”
It is possible… but more studies across more species must be done extensively. But plants actually do well without it too so I wont rush out to buy another bottle of these 😀
**Assuming if** plants cant take up vitamin B1 by roots then the only way it will help plants if its broken down by bacteria Chemical formula for vitamin B1 is C12H17N4OS+ which suggest it contains a bit of nitrogen which is ofc very important for plants as well as tiny amount of Suphlur which is secondary nutrient, plants need very little of it compared to Nitrogen Phosphorous and Potassium but again it is still important for plants if its missing So when you have neglected unfertilised plant there is a chance it could help it grow by providing tiny amount of nitrogen and suphlur, but if its fertilised corectly, it probably wont make a difference Just to clarify, I base that just on pure logic and knowledge, not really any scientific research, also again this would be a hypothetical scenario where plants cant take vitamin B1 through roots. If they can then things probably get complicated...
@@onlyplants btw just found ur channel, maybe make video on Vitamin C, I add tiny amount to my nutriens mix, since I've heard it actually can benefit plants as it chelates nutriens and actually can improve plant growth I think I even saw few papers on it on internet proving this and saying that it can be taken up by roots but never had time and patience to read them in full It can also remove chlorine/chloraminates if u have them in water and ofc lowers ph binding to calcium, but as a organic acid its quite weak for stable ph lowering, it aslo breaks down in water very fast anyway The only thing I dont know, is what it is doing to fertiliser as Im using hydroponic chelated nutriens and it seems like it can react with them in some way, so yeah... I personally grow cacti, maybe in future I will expand to plants like you grow, but dont have space, time and money for that yet...
There is a problem I observed with your experiment. At earlier stage vitamin b1 plant was doing better than the control because it has space and potential to grow its roots and absorb more moisture than the control. At later stage the vitamin b1 plant was restricted by the pot. It's capacity for growth was restricted to same capacity of the control. The fact that it's roots are tighter and drier means it has grown more root than the control but it was not given room and moisture to grow according to its capacity. Am sure if you have it in a larger pot, it will grow.more leaves than the placebo. Also note, root growth is also key index to measure plant growth
I use couple drops for 1 liter of watering can. Its different each time Im not one to measure things. You can read the directions on the bottle. But I would always recommend to dilute even more than recommended.

By 1942 even the original author of the study admitted that vitamin B1 had no positive effect on plant growth and said “It is now certain, however, that additions of vitamin B1 to intact growing plants have no significant or useful place in horticultural or agricultural practice”
I might have read that too, but asian growers swear by it. Makes it very confusing!
@@onlyplants I will still go by scientific evidence not someone that smoked to much
Does vitamins B complex can be used to plant growths?
I believe it doesnt. Theres no science to proove it. But many senior growers swear by it…
I think B1 will work!
😀 a little I think. But they seem to do just fine without it
그러면 B1과 비료를 같이 석어 주면 더 좋겠네요?
perhaps the b1 helps the uptake as it creates a more viable root system therefore a healthier plant..??
It is possible… but more studies across more species must be done extensively. But plants actually do well without it too so I wont rush out to buy another bottle of these 😀
**Assuming if** plants cant take up vitamin B1 by roots then the only way it will help plants if its broken down by bacteria

Just to clarify, I base that just on pure logic and knowledge, not really any scientific research, also again this would be a hypothetical scenario where plants cant take vitamin B1 through roots. If they can then things probably get complicated...

It can also remove chlorine/chloraminates if u have them in water and ofc lowers ph binding to calcium, but as a organic acid its quite weak for stable ph lowering, it aslo breaks down in water very fast anyway
The only thing I dont know, is what it is doing to fertiliser as Im using hydroponic chelated nutriens and it seems like it can react with them in some way, so yeah...

Its supposed to de-stress a plant… from repotting, transit, or sudden change in environment.
There is a problem I observed with your experiment.

Yeppp I had totally missed out on measuring the roots! Gaaah.
can you mix B1 with NPK ( i use grow more 32 10 10) , at the same time?
Yes you can 😀 dilute everything ya. Better to use frequently but very diluted, than to have a heavy concentrated session.
@@onlyplants alright thanks for the advice.
would love to know your thoughts about fish amino acid. please. 🙏

I use couple drops for 1 liter of watering can. Its different each time Im not one to measure things. You can read the directions on the bottle. But I would always recommend to dilute even more than recommended.

I think in small numbers it should be ok… 😀 sounds like a sensible thing to do
