This video came just in time. I just bought the same Fittonia 2 days ago. Your plants are beautiful.
@Esmeralda Burgos, Very glad to know that thank you very much for your words :-) Good luck with your plants :-)
Awe, ur little daughter is so pretty. She looks like a true "daddy's girl".
Thank you for this video. This is a new plant for me and I didn't know how to prepare the soil for repotting. Thanks again for ur info.
Again right video at the right moment! One of my Fittonias is now in stress but I couldn't understand what happened to it. Probably now I can make it out. So you are the savior. A big thanks to you.
Excellent video. It was short and covered all questions I could think of.
Thank you so much for sharing. I love the look and vibe this plants gives when growing indoors or out. They thrive in my windowsills and on my lanai.. Your fittonia plants look beautiful. Have a wonderful day.
Hi Chandan - your plant friend, Sujata, here, from the American Midwest. Now the frosts are arrived in our part of the world, we're all frantically busy, bringing plants indoors to save them from the cold. So, I have missed a number of your videos and will have to go back and enjoy them when things calm down a bit. Your fittonia plant here is quite beautiful. I have two of the same - the white - and two of the pink variety - and I love these plants a lot because they let you know when they need a drink, or when something else is necessary. I do wish all plants were like that! Enjoy!
@SCP, Hi Sujata...I recognize you very well (remember your profile name) and hope everything is going well there. Yeah, can understand the situation...now you would need to bring all plants inside and let them grow with grow light. Here it's completely different - I am also bit busy preparing for winter garden and this time I have a big plan and hope to achieve it :-) Glad to know you liked my plant and thank you very much for your words and I am sure, your plants are gorgeous too!! Plus, you have more varieties..Have a wonderful time ahead and hope all of your plants do well during the frost, wishing you all the best :-)
@@GardeningUpbeat - thank you - and yes some of my plants really are quite beautiful - while others, well, not so much! 😅 I'm just an average gardener but I do so enjoy it. Fortunately, we have a big house with a lot of windows, many of them South facing, so indoor light is not a problem. My only issue is I have too many plants and can't find enough space indoors for all of them! Anyway, once we're hunkered down here for the winter months, I'll looking forward to seeing lots and lots of your vids, all about your winter garden! Best of luck...and keep on planting!
Well done on the video. Keep at it. Gave my shriveled plant another go because of this.
Lot's of useful information & I appreciate the example.
You are most welcome and thank you very much for your feedback!
Thanks for the very informative tutorial of taking care fittonias.
Thank you so much for the video! And just in time, too! My fittonia is curling up and I now know why! You have explained so well. Angel seems to be putting the lockdown to good use by helping you garden up! ☺️ God bless, stay safe and happy gardening 👍🙏
@Seema Pujari, Most welcome and glad to know you liked it and wish you all the best for your plants :-) Yeah, she is always with me whenever I do the gardening work...ha ha..Thank you So So much for your words, much appreciated and have a wonderful time ahead :-)
@@GardeningUpbeat It's not only important but rewarding, too, to involve and connect kids with nature and the natural world. God bless 🙏👍☺️
Felt good watching you with your daughter. 😊 God bless you both!
@susan gowda, Thank you So So much for your words, really appreciate it 😊😊 Have a great time ahead 😊😊
@@GardeningUpbeat 🙏🙂
Very informative :) My Fittonia plants have been with me for quite a time but they look malnourished. Thank you for everything you have shared...
You are so dedicated person in gardening. Waiting for 120 days to show us. It's looking so beautiful plant. I like your video. It's 1st like. Sir, do u have turtle vine plant? If u possible pls send the plant to me sir. Thank you sir.
@Venkat Lakshmi Gandepalli, Thank you So much for your words, really appreciate it! I feel like a video is incomplete without successful updates and so try to do that with all plants. I have Turtle vine and I can send...problem is to finding proper time. But still, I would try sometime. I would appreciate if you don't call me Sir, thank you and it's just a request :-)
@@GardeningUpbeat Okay. I respect your feelings. Pls don't forget to send the turtle vine plant. Thank you for reply. Have a nice day.
Really loved your video...thank yu so much for patiently recording over a period of time. Bhalo hoeche
Glad you found it useful and thank you so much for your feedback :-)
Ur daughter is really cute...this like goes to her also...thanks for d valuable info
That plant pretty. Love it. Watching from Trinidad and Tobago
@bernard john, Thank you so much for your words and I am really glad to know you are watching from Trinidad and Tobago, feeling really happy :-)
Hi, thank you for this informative video. I have a fittonia plant and it looks we have the same variety, it's just that I found yours to have more bigger leaves.
My soil mix is perlite, peatmoss, and organic potting soil and my nerve plant loves it! But I didn't know how to propagate... I wanted to start making terrariums, so thanks for the info on how to propagate!
this is such a great video thank u
Oh my, your fittonia looks gorgeous! I’ve a few, they’re in soil and I feel they stay wet for too long. So far they’re doing well, but I wonder if they wouldn’t do better if I changed to the same mix as you...
Your daughter is beautiful! And your plant looks so healthy! I want to try that soil
Thank you So much for your kind words, highly appreciated! Wish you all the best!
Very good video and I also liked the child more than the plant. God bless her
@Guradhari Sadhwani, Thank you So So much for your words, really loved it a lot :-) Have a great time ahead :-)
Very sweet dad daughter .Nice video
I bought a red fittonia 2 days ago and I’m waiting to repot it. Thanks for the tips
@Rosette Gonsalves, Glad to know you liked it and thank you So much for your feedback, appreciate it :-) Good luck with your Fittonia plant :-)
Your videos are just awesome.
I have fittonias too. They're very easy to care for. I put them under LED or white lamp indoor. I never put outside for direct sunlight. Once a week i water them thoroughly until it comes out from bottom tray. My water is mixed with mild fertilizer. So far it grows perfectly with steady leaves. Those who like indoor plant should really try fittonias.
Pl help me ,one month back I brought a sapling of Fittonia nerve plant, grown in cocopeat only, Now for repotting shall I use equal parts of Cocopeat, coconut bark, Vermicompost and perlite or other wise pl share your experience with quantity I am a new gardener?
@@ranjansengupta9854 yes u can try this mixture as this plant is really easy to care for and they grow just fine even with shady little sunlight
Thanks for sharing.
Wow very beautiful plant one like for it
Wow sooo beautiful and the leaves are so attractive 🤩🤩🤩
@Monti Dutta, Thank you So much Monti...the Red one also look really beautiful :-)
Hi, in Brazil there many kinds of fitonia, it mine never grow good, now I could grow perfectly like yours, thanks
Wish you all the best and definitely they would grow well!
Hello. I enjoyed your video. I'm new to plants especially indoor. I was dealing with bugs like flies when I brought my plants indoors. I panicked and mixed a spray of hydrogen peroxide and water. I sprayed all of my plants and took them outside. I got very cold about 40⁰F that night. I sprayed them again the next day. I brought them inside but took them out of the potting soil. It's been about a week now they've been inside the house in a box with a grow light. I sprayed them several times and they appear to be drying and maybe some dieing. I'm gonna use some of your ingredient mix for soil combinations today. I hope it worked.
Excellent video! Thank you for the guidance. :-)
You are most welcome and glad you liked it 🙏😊
Wao very good growth. I too hv Fittonia with nice growth, but this plant has no height ,that's why one has to keep patience for it's growth.
Thank You for your video. well explained
@vatsala bhandarkar, Glad you liked it and thank you so much for the feedback, much appreciated :-)
beautiful plant
What kind of sprayer are you using? Does it connect to a hose? I’m new to plants. Thks for helpful info. You do great job with before and after photos, propagating & info in general.
Best plant channel👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻 This channel shows everything from Start to end.. Really helpful
I am TRULY thankful to you for your wonderful feedback and people like you really motivate me to work much harder, much appreciated! But I know, I am not the Best yet and I still have to do lots of works (mainly on presentation like talking skill) to fix..would do and would become someday! Wish me Good Luck!
You’re truly amazing… I’m a new gardener and your videos are helping me a lot with my gardening 👩🌾. I first watch your videos if I have no idea about the plant.. Everything is perfect 🤩 👌🏻👌🏻 Thank you so much… And yes i really love your talking skills 😃😃
Very much informative thanks a lot
@Ruxana Ashraf, Most welcome and thank you so much for your feedback, appreciated :-)
Well explained 👍
Thank you so much im going to buy the same soil mix :)
@Sara Giovanna, Glad I could do something and wishing you all the best :-)
Beautiful
Good information
Beautiful plant👌
@Vaishali Pawar, Thank you So So much :-)
Good stuff! I'm getting my plant soon, let's see if it survives with me :)
One suggestion that may help, adding very soft background music helps with ambience in the video. It's a trick most people use when talking on videos to create a better feel. Great content, very thorough
@Errol Fernandes, Thank you very much for your feedback and good luck with your plants. Again thank you for your suggestion and it's really a good idea and definitely I would think about it. Have a great time ahead :-)
looks good 👌
Good information God bless u n cute daughter
So nice of you and thank you so much for you words :-)
Very nice video
Hi, thank you for this video. How did your fittonia got so lushed and have alot of branches?
I have bought this fittonia and the red one 👍🏻 thanks for the video 😁
You’re welcome 😊
Pls watch my videos too 👍🏻😁
EXCELLENT
Nice video!!! Hope that you’ll keep doing this so that ppl can learn great tips from you 👏👏
Btw, can I ask what kind of rocks that you used at the bottom of the pot? Thank you!!!
@Nguyen Thu Nga, Thank you So So much for your words, I truly appreciate it! Sure, those are the broken pieces of clay pot..I have lots of clay pots and while doing here and there, few breaks sometimes. I save those pieces instead of throwing broken clay pots because I know they can be used in Gardening :-) Instead of that, you can use hard objects, such as stones. Thank you once again and definitely I would be doing my best :-)
@@GardeningUpbeat Okkk, I got it. Have a nice day and best wishes to your family (including your plants) ☺️☺️
You are really a great gardener I am your fan sir daily I am watching your videos I am following the tips. You are from which place sir .i am from tamilnadu thank you so much
Very informative sir 👏👏
❤️❤️❤️ cute doll 😍 💓 💖
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Very useful vdo.
So nice of you :-)
What did you do to the fittonia that is potted in garden soil? My fittonia with the same variety looks like that. All the leaves at folding. Some are dropping. I already potted it in a mixture of cocopeat, vermicast, pumice and some coconut husk. But it’s still the same. Do you have any advise on what to do with them to make them bloom again? Much appreciated if you can give me some advise.
Beautiful 🌹
thanks
Good morning 🙏
Very attractive foliage plant, nice information with update 👍 and request to mention price as well to get just approx Idea on price too.
Namaskar 🙏❤️
Thank you for this video so much, mine is so leggy
@ALONA S, Most welcome and thank you so much for watching :-)
I have my fitonia plant in normal soil mixture from last 3 months and it's doing so so. Can I repot it in this season in this soil.
Even my fittonia plant has become like the way you had shown your first fittonia. There are only two branches and it is coming out of the plant. I think I have used soil and cocopeat and a little compost. Though it is growing up slowly, it hasn’t become bushier like the way yours has. I use seaweed liquid fertiliser once a month.
@Malini Rao, Seaweed liquid fertilizer once a month is perfect...the problem is in the soil. Either holding too much water or getting direct sunlight. Perhaps, you can add some sand to the soil. I can see this is the same thing most of the nurseries do in my area - they use very sandy type soil. Good luck with your plant :-)
@@GardeningUpbeat thank you so much for clearing my doubts:-)
So cuteeee 😍
@Soumya's Mehandi and Creativity, Thank you So So much Soumya...
Please make a video about episcia plant care and soil mix 🙏
Very useful video. Subscribed. Could you guide me with something. My Fittonia is still in 4 inch nursery pot and water runs out very quickly. It droops if I don't water three times everyday. I thought repotting may help it. It is in clay like soil mix. How can I change it to soilless like you showed? How to remove all the existing soil without damaging the roots?
Excellent information...
@Sarbani Mukherjee, Thank you so much Ma'am :-) I really missed your feedback in many of my videos and glad to get it back finally! Look like you are more into Indoor plants...the good news is I am working on lots of indoor plants and I hope you would like whatever I would upload in coming days. Hope you and your family is doing great, TC Ma'am :-)
@@GardeningUpbeat actually, I stay in a flat in central Calcutta (college street near Calcutta University). I have only my balcony and window sill. I have filled up all my corners, balcony, and window sills 😀. I regularly watched your videos, but sometimes I forgot to put my comments. Fittonia is one my favourite, so cute it is...
Forgot to tell you, your daughter is too cute...may god bless her.
@Sarbani Mukherjee, Sure Ma'am I can understand and really thank you so much for watching other videos as well...but frankly saying, now a days I am also too much into indoor plants and I assure you would like them. All indoor plants take quite a long time to grow and I want to record them in the same style I do for outdoor plants. Many are in progress and Fittonia was the first with result and glad to know you liked them :-) Thank you so much Ma'am for your words about my daughter and wishing a great time for your entire family, take care Ma'am :-)
Thanks for Nice and informative video for potting mix 🎉Pl advice this same Potting mix will be suitable for Fittonia Nerve plant which, I need to repot the Sapling to a 3-4 inch pot just +one month after I brought it from Nursery , in cocopeat only ?
You are most welcome Sir and thank you very much for your valuable feedback! The same potting mix can be used for new Sapling too and wish you all the best!
Pl advise how to multiply Fittonia with that purchased from nursery. Also whether seeds are available and when does the plant give seeds
I bought 2 fittonia plants and they are already potted in a similar mixture like the one you have shown. Should I repot it?
@Subhajit Deb, if your plants are already in good sized pot, there is no need to repot. 6 inch pot is more than enough for Fittonia..but if you like, you can definitely repot them. Good luck with your plants 👍
@@GardeningUpbeat i had mine in 8 inch bonsai pots. One of them is kind of dying, dropping leaves everyday. How can I save it?
Hi, i luv this plant a lot, but the leaves are dropping now. So I guess I'll repot it but can i use compost instead of vermicompost
So this plant just stays indooe without any direct sunlight ?
U have shown fittonia in garden soil where leaves got curled
So can repoting in other soil would help it ?
Sir please let me know that if we don't have perlite then what should be done as a substitute.
Very nice 👍👍👏👏👏Can I use sea weed fertilizer instead of your fertilizer....I don't want to buy new fertilizer....
Exactly what I was looking for
Today I got 6 different fittonia small plants but did know the way to report it or about soil mixture.
Your plant is growing very well n is healthy
Can I plant all 6 varieties in the same planter?
Glad to hear that and thank you very much for your feedback, appreciated!
>> Can I plant all 6 varieties in the same planter?
If possible, please avoid and use at least 2 or 3 planters. Because, even if anything goes wrong (while repotting or with soil mix), you would have other plants with you :-)
Sending lots of LOVE to little angel Pakhi! Ha ha..my daughter used to do the same thing like you have uploaded here - ruclips.net/video/e3Bdjo4g-kg/видео.html
P.S. - Your name looked similar (like Indian name and I could be wrong too) and checked your profile. Then, watched that video :-) Hope, all of you are doing great and wish you all the best!
@@GardeningUpbeat
Thanks for the prompt reply
I ll follow the valuable tips shared by you.
The videos uploaded on this channel are of my niece, her name is Pakhi living in the USA. You are right we are Indian but I am in India only
My own channel is different where I have uploaded videos of my plants.

I am a beginner in gardening, started in the month of July with 5 plants in my little balcony and now I have 50+ plants. Nurturing them the best I can do.
Will using a second larger pot (like the white one you used) also stop them from growing sideways? My fittonia plant isn’t soft and limping but ive noticed that it has started growing sideways. Somewhat like grass covering the soil..
@Shiho Kato, Yeah, it would! If soft and limping, then please take a look whether your plant is getting enough bright light or not...Also, please note that, the soil should be consistently moist..it hates when soil dries out...
My fittona plant is drooping plz let me know why
I hv used soil,cocoapeat.its kept indoor
My Fittonia plant was good for nearly 4 weeks. I water it once every 2 weeks. I suddenly thought of misting my plant a little and did the same, but I guess my plant didn't like it and it started drowing. What should I do in this case, please help?
Why you using perlite?and what I can use as substitute of perlite
Can we use sand in place of perlite?
Sir my fittonia plants leaves are yellowing.. it was in cocopeat mixture.. also they are dying..can you please guide me ?
Nice information Sir..... My plant not growing well and new leaves coming very small and stem also not looking well .....pls help me
My Fittonia not growing properly and leaves are crispy types. please gives some advise for that problems. Your plant just superb. 👍🏻👍🏻
@Mahua Das, In the video, I have already provided the solutions for this problem and also discussed why this happens...but still, if your situation is different then plz let me know and I would let you know what to do. Thank you :-)
Thank you. Please do more videos on indoor plants like this one. This one dies in Kolkata. Please help. Where shall I keep it????
Do we remove the small basket it comes in?
What's price of this size Fittonia plant and from which nursery you brought
Same thing happened to me when potting with regular soil
How many times you changed pots? As 120 days after, it became white
A very good video indeed. I would say a very good recipe for healthy Fittonia growth. I am facing a few minor problems, is there any way to contact you separately ?
Can I use river sand instead of perlite?
My plant suddenly drop down what can i do to refresh plant again, my plant soil become dry because i forgot to give water
Hello sir mera fittoniya bilkul grow Nhi kar raha.. Leef kale pad jate he... Me Kya karu..? Plz ans

Very good video brother...👌👌 is there any substitute for perlite?
Why the pot is different after 120 days?
What ia the alternative for perlite
Even I also need the ans . Pl
My fittonia is infected with mealybugs what to do. Its difficult to remove by hand which I tried
@Suresh P Venkata, Getting rid of Mealybugs is easy and can be done within 48 hours. Please use this - 5-7 ml Neem Oil + 4-5 ml light hand wash (like Savlon) => Mix them in 1 liter water and spray everywhere. All would be gone :-) If no, you can use Chemical pesticide like Rogor, Roket (1 ml in 1 liter water) etc but it won't be needed.
