Thank you. I am a new plant mom and literally knew nothing about how to keep a plant alive. This video helps! :)
Never reuse water that drained from one plant and give it to another. Not just pests like Ashley said, but fungal and bacterial pathagens spread really bad that way. That's another reason why I try not to touch my plants too much because touching one then another can spread illness.
1000% agree. I've seen so many tiktoks/other youtube videos deliberately place pots on stands above one another and just water one plant and let the water trickle down into the bottom plant and I ALWAYS cringe at it. I guess diseases and overwatering aren't real things to them
Great info Ashley. One thing I do with my tap water, I have a splitter on my aquarium air tubing and an extra tube with an airstone that I can turn on and off. I put my big container of water there and put the airstone in at least overnight. Chlorine and some other chemicals only outgas at the surfaee areas so by adding a bubbling airstone the water moves and chemicals have a better chance to outgas. Another thing I notice with my plants that like to get dry. dry soil often becomes hydrophobic, so the water can run out the bottom through without the soil actually absorbing the water. I often "pre-water," watering just a little so that the water has enough time to re-hydrate the soil a bit (maybe 5-10 minutes) then go back and water regularly. Also sometimes with plants that like to dry out the rootball can shrink a bit and pull away from the sides of the pot. So you have a plant that keeps acting like it needs water, but what's happening is everytime you water, the water is just taking the path of least resistance and running down the sides of the pot and out the bottom without really getting into the roots. You may need to rework the soil a bit to close up those fine gaps.
This is so helpful Cleo, thank you! I would love to experiment with an air stone. I think you’ve motivated me! I’d love to grow more plants in water only and I think an air stone would help a lot with this.
@@LifewithAshleyAnita One of my next big experiments is a a pothos filter for my aquarium. You basically take a long plastic planter and put on a shelf over your aquarium. You rig it so that a small water pump circulates water up and through a bed of leca. You can then root pothos or whatever you like. Its great because it creates an active hydroponics system that takes advantages of the nutrients in the tank water, keeps the water oxygenated and also works as a biological filter. So the fish and the plants both benefit.
Excellent information. Thank you!
great info! i wish watering was talked about more cause there’s so many different variations of it, so thank you!!! 💚🌱
Thank you Leo! 💚🪴
I use brita water pitchers and wonder if I even need to do that. This summer I moved many of my plants outside so they got watered with cold hose water from the tap. Not one showed any signs of distress (even my white fusion calathea, the diva). I guess the chlorine levels aren't that high in my tap. I think it takes longer than an hour for chlorine to evaporate. As a fish keeper I've always heard the rule 24 hours, but I guess it would depend on how many ppm chlorine is in the water. Also, some people have chloramine in the water and that won't evaporate. I do use distilled water for my venus fly traps...the secret to not killing them!
I'm so glad I found your channel. The watering information is so helpful for me. Thank you!
Oooops and HAPPY NEW YEAR ASHLEY!!!
IT'S -40°C here where I live right now, on the Canadian prairies.
You inspired me tonight to do 3 hours of plant chores. Thank you!!
I’m in the Canadian prairies too🥶 it’s a really dry indoors too
This was such a great video!!! Lots of good information. Thank you so much and wishing you all the best for 2022 💚💚💚
Thank you Krista! 🤗
Your videos are amazing....keep up the good work. Just a helpful hit here, leave your tap water sit out for 24 hours, it gets rid of all the chlorine.
Nice video Ashley!! Thanks for your time to make this. I sent to a couple that wants to start collecting house plants.
Thank you very much! 💚
Love it! I am so happy when I made my video last week about this, I did not miss a thing 😆 thank you for this video. I may have to try them mixes in the new year.
Hi Ashley you always give some great tips and I love watching your videos I love all your plans they're so pretty🌿🌱🥰🤩😍💚💛🧡🖤🤟🤟
Thanks Marie!!
Great tips!
Especially bottom watering to deter fungus gnats. It takes a little more time..but I think it’s worth it (however, mosquito bits are definitely on hand for “tea” 😉)
Yes, well draining soil! I finally understood what that meant about a month ago (20 plants later 🤪 )as well as how helpful it is to make sure the pot has good drainage. If necessary, I drill a couple more holes in the bottom of the pot to be sure(lol..the water meter is my bff😁)
Thanks a BUNCH🌿🍃🌱
💚💚
Whichever way you water has no impact on fungal gnats. Fungus gnats will still breed no matter if the soil is moist or dry.
I mix the loose bits into my dirt when re potting have never had them 1 tbsp 4” pot
Thank you your channel is one of my favorites
Good tips, thanks for the vid
Great tips! Thanks so much and Happy New Year🎉🍾🎉🍾
Thanks Wanda! Happy New Year to you as well! 💚
Things that took me too long to learn were:: moisture meters don’t work on extremely chunky aerated soil they always tell you to water. most water companies use chloramine now as opposed to chlorine. Chloramine does not evaporate when left out. I buy RO water from my local fish store for $.50 a gallon as long as I bring my own empty milk jugs.
Great information about watering our houseplants,
I clicked so fast.. love your videos
Aw thank you so much!! 🥰🥰🥰
What is it when the leaves r yellow/ or, brown & dryed up? Thank you in advance💛
You have some beautiful plants and space. Any tips for watermelon peperomia? I’ve killed 2 so far. Last one dried out never recovered, first one never should have purchased, it was sitting in water at Lowes.
Thank you Keith!
Well done!
Thanks!💚
Bottom watering is the best way for most house plants.
I overwatered that way: had no idea what I was doing. Switched to light top watering just until I can feel the water in the pot with a couple few second breaks to let it absorb haven’t killed as many. 😂
Brilliant... thank you!
This is so helpful!
Thank you ☺️
I’m so glad!
Info yang sangat baik,terimakasih ya ashley.
I just buyed a pothos and one leave point has a little brown on it. The soil is also very wet and has a little white on top of the earth ( I removed the white). Is the brown because of overwatering
I also use top and bottom watering
Great info! Thanks! :)
What if the leaves are droopy but the soil is not moist? Then what do I do?
I notice your hanging plants. when you water them, does the water drip down out of the pot? Also should pothos be placed in direct sunlight or simi dark room? What's a good place to have a pothos. I tried to place one of my pothos near a window but it's always curling up and dying ughhh. I thought these plants would be so easy to care for but to me I don't have a green thumb. I water my pothos and it dies. I don't water it and it still dies. I'm so sad.
Love the plant stand directly behind you. Where can I find it?
Ahi Ashley, thanks for your time making this video. I want t know how often we should bottom water. I do it once in 2 weeks. Is that good? Or should I do it every week.
I'm so depressed please my plant is dying. I have 2 of them and I'm a bad plant mom. When I over water it they die, when I dont add water the plant dies. Right now the soil is dry and the leaves are curling up so bad. What does it mean when the leaves are curling up...ughhh someone please help me.
Thank you !! 😊
Good information
i watch all your videos and i have pothos and and lots of tropical plants and are they safe around cats i know they are not to be eaten but do cats bother them
Hi Ashley!!! Thanks for the info. What can I do for my pothos?? It has a white fuzzy looking mold kind of thing. I heard it's good and I scooped out all of it and added cinnamon. Now it's back again. What is your recommendation?? Plant looks good still it's been about 3 weeks since I scooped out the white fuzz and it's back again on the cinnamon. I haven't given it water since I've placed the cinnamon on top. Help please. Thanks so much. I love you fungus gnat solution. Works very well for me. Ty. You saved my plants. I do bottom watering now since I love to overeater. 🙄 Lol. Happy new year by the way!!!
I used an app for watering because I have a lot plants in home
Cool!
Great now I’m more confused lol to many options and not enough details for exact amount of time to bottom water
hi. hello. thank you so muçh.lots of good informatio.and wishing you all the best. 🇵🇭❤️❤️❤️fr.the 🇵🇭🙏👍☘️🍀🌵💮🏵️🌻🌼🌱🍂⛄🎉🎊🍄🌸🌲💙❤️💚❤️❤️💜💙💛
What about watering plants with well water? Is that okay? I do that a lot. Most of the plants seem okay with it.
Yes, I use well water and I don't have any issues watering plants with it. But, I can't use the well water in the humidifier because it leaves white powder on the leaves and table.
@@laurenjohnson5880 Thank you.
Hi, where you buy the Irrometer. Thanks.
Hi! I’ve included a link in my description to a moisture meter on Amazon. 💚
@@LifewithAshleyAnita ok thanks.
How long do you bottom water a pothos for? 💚
I was looking for this exact question but with an answer.
@@grahameverard3682 so I've been bottom watering my pothos plants for over a year now, 30 minutes is pretty good
I never fertilize bcuz I water with my fish/aquarium tank water. Fish poop a natural organic fertilizer high in nitrogen, potassium & other nutrients found in store bought fertilizers. Also you already treat the aquarium water for chlorine to keep your fish alive & now your plants lol. I RECOMMEND WITH FRESHWATER AQUARIUMS NOT SALTWATER AQUARIUMS.
👍🏽🙏🥰
Holy hell get to the point
