    If I may offer some suggestions:
    - Perlite is not a nutrient. It’s a good to mix it in (not sprinkle on top) potting soil, as it improves drainage, but it doesn’t feed the plant.
    - Miracle Grow might be the better option in a big box store, but it’s absolutely not a good potting mix (especially Moisture Control, which retains too much water). It’s better if you mix in more perlite, but there are much better brands (yes more expensive, but absolutely worth it) which you can buy at good nurseries. Miracle Grow is heavy, compacts quickly, supports fungus gnats, and is full of inorganic fertilizer that artificially props up your plant until it runs out. My favorite potting mix is Foxfarm Ocean Floor, pricy, but my plants have never been healthier in the long term.
    - Yes, you should remove dead leaves. But cutting off tips is only for appearance, and I would argue leaves cut in half does not look natural or nice. Too many brown tips is actually a symptom that your plant is not well.

    And a couple of more tips:
    - It’s a good idea and much easier to shower your plants. Knocks of dust and most love the humidity. Wiping individual pothos leaves sounds like a chore.
    - Majesty palm... Such a difficult plant indoors. Moving it to a dark location will have its effect sooner or later. They need stronger sun than most indoor locations can ever offer, very high humidity (dry winter heating is a killer), no drafts, lots of water, lots of food... Perhaps the better sunlight in your bedroom was not the reason for its decline, and it’s likely to start getting worse in an even darker location. Unfortunately these don’t fair well for more than a couple of years in most anyone’s indoor conditions.

    They say the Majesty palm is an endangered species but I see more of them in homes than any other palm. They are slow to grow but pretty. If you like palms try some others. Can grow date palms from dates. Take the seeds, soak off any remaining fruit and then dry them off. I wrap them in paper towels, soak them and then put them in tubs to sprout.
    I have all sorts of palms in my house. And when summer comes, the back yard looks awesome too.
    Btw. The Majesty palm. Can grow to 90 feet tall....the house plant palms are just juveniles!

      It's probably because people take plants from the wild instead of nurseries and plant cuttings. Since they grow slowly it will take really long to reproduce and increase their numbers

    I also have a majesty palm and was wondering if yours is still looking as great as it does in this video. Mine is starting to run into some trouble, I feel like I have to keep trimming dead pieces off the palm leaves themselves and it seems like I have to keep doing this more and more that I feel like im defiantly doing something wrong. I noticed that the water isn't drying up as fast in the pot so I try not to give it water too much, maybe because it's winter. I bought this miracle grow palm shake and feed for it. sprinkled some of that in there and mixed in soil so hopping that helps. It's strange cause I see new palm shoots sprouting up but then I also see it drying up in the leaves so I dont know what the problem could be for it.

    Great video! Earlier this year I decided to really try to maintain plants because we were building a house and wanted as much fresh oxygen from plants. Now that we are in the house, I have 5 plants in total and thank goodness non have died. I have been researching and learning about plant care more. I have noticed my palm plant, also, doesn't like a bunch of light. Now I know how to trim the leaves and didn't even think to wipe leaves down. I will be doing that now. Again great informative video.

    I also have a majesty palm. Many people and companies say it’s a high light plant but from my experience it’s loves shade. Mine is outdoors and gets about 2-3 hours of direct morning sunlight from 7am to about 9-10am and then shaded the rest of the day. I guess it just depends on the palm itself, if it’s already acclimated to long hours of direct sun or long hours of shade. Mine leaves started dying quickly being in direct sunlight all day every day for two weeks. That’s when I brought it in shade.

    • @kitaaallen9297
      @kitaaallen9297 5 лет назад +3

      When the plants roots grow they push soil out of the pot through the drainage hole. When plant get root bound people think the plant struggles because it’s “strangled”,no it’s because there is more root then soil which can’t hold enough water and nutrients to sustain the plant. If I have a fast growing plant, every day I need to wipe away soil that’s been pushed out of the pot. Every so often you have to top dress the soil, it’s also a fertiliser alternative .. you can top dress the soil with worm castings (worm poop) to give the soil more nutrients. Saves repotting if it’s still got plenty of space, also if you have pests like fungus gnats it’s also a good tip to remove the top inch or two of soil and replace as that’s where the gnat eggs are.

      So this video is very old and I no longer have anymore plants due to me getting a cat soon along with this palms getting spider mites. So just be careful with what plants you bring into your home. I spent and wasted a ton of money on plants that just ended up dying or I ended up giving them away 🤦🏻‍♀️

    What about the water drainage,do u use a plate for collecting them ? I don't want my wood shelf to swell with all that water.

      Yes I use a plate from the dollar store. Collects the water just fine. And I hear ya I didn’t want to ruin the wood floors in my apartment either.

    My palm is growing so wide and not that high. Can I fix it? I’ve notice you Tied a rope around it

      @Living.minimal  3 года назад

      So sorry I wish I could help but this video is pretty old and I no longer have this plant due to spider mites. I tied rope to make it look fuller back then but I’m not sure if it helped. I only had this palm for a good 4 months then I had to throw both of them away. Now a days I no longer have anymore plants on two large monsteras.

    This is great, thanks! I've never owned any plants, but am considering buying a couple areca palms for my apartment. Can you tell me what the peat moss is for and if it's necessary for palms?

  • @HeRedeemsUs
    @HeRedeemsUs 6 лет назад +1

    I thought you weren't supposed to trim the leaves of the palm. But yours look great! I wonder why there is so much opposite info on these?

    Humidifiers also reduce dust in your environment.

    I am sad watching my majesty palm not doing well. I follow some tips and read gardening tips seems like I have a hard time to grow this plant. There's new leaves coming and I trimmed the one turned to brown. Also my Lily is blooming but not healthy. My golden pathos don't have problem. just the majesty palm and lily. I think its humidity my place in CA not high humidity. You have beautiful plants.

    what is the rubber band you have at the base of the majesty palm? mine grew vertically like yours when I bought it a year ago but now it's growing outward and taking up a lot of space
