Epic Gardening me: ok I really can not order anymore plants. Also me: oh good epic gardening video! The end of the video reading there’s a 20% code 🤔💭😅
I actually got a small calender book and I document everything I do to my plants so they don't get neglected on something by accident or too much of something by accident. It work absolutely awesome for me
Many plant videos give me a headache but yours and Planterina’s are my favorites. You give helpful and concise tips. No unnecessary use of words or details. And both your and Amanda’s voices are just soothing and pleasant. Thank you for creating these videos for us!
I thought I had over watered my Christmas cactus. Come to find out I was under watering. My sister’s advice, bottom watering. I tried it, it worked! I DIDN’T LOVE IT TO DEATH! .🌵
I helped my mother with them too. One of the 2 was not flowering. I said “give that one more water and light” now it flowers better than the other one :)
I wanted to reach out and thank you for all that you are doing for us. During this time, you have been a great voice for people who are looking for a new positive role to play in their life. Over the last few months I have really learned a lot through this channel. Your dedication to your passion of a greener thumb is changing how a lot of us think. On behalf of this community, i thank you.
I recently repotted an aloe Vera and it’s too big to fit on my window sill. This just reminded me to go put him outside for some sun since I had moved him so far from the normal light he gets. Also, Ive noticed that when I keep the nursery pot in another container, it keeps my plant moist and happy longer. Learned that the hard way when I repotted something and didn’t put the new pot back in the big mug - it dried up SO much faster! Thanks for the share!!
The second one hits home... My succulents have been alone for a month already because of the quarantine:( Hope I will still find them alive the next time I visit... Thank you for the tips!!
I have many plants that I water from the bottom all the time. It saves me from guessing how much to pour in. The pots that I buy are made for this and have a wick that goes up into the dirt. I love the mulch idea, though, never thought of that! Great video I am glad I found your channel!
I am indoor house planting in NYC, US. We’re seeing temperatures as low as 23F outside. Here’s the thing: my apartment complex is so afraid of getting sued that they leave the heat on through the entire season! But that’s not the bad part… I have Meyer lemon seedlings growing and (Quercus alba) white oak tree acorns germinating in the same indoor plant-tent facing Northeast-East; so sunrise is a big thing for my Meyers. When I infrared-check the temperature, The area is usually cooler than the Meyer leaf. I have full spectrum grow lights, but the Meyers seem to be stretching to them, so I quarter turn them every week. When I set my humidifier to 60%, I only get maybe the high 40%. And when I finally get it to at least the high 50%, the temp is around 85F and the clear plastic is sweating everywhere! The overall temperature (leaf & ambiance) can fluctuate between low 70F to mid 80F. Any suggestions? Please help?
When you talk about time of the year instead of talking months can you please talk seasons as I don’t have a clue what your weather is like lol thanks. Love your show btw 🥰
This is my new favorite channel! Inexperienced gardener here, your videos have been so insightful and entertaining. I love your attitude. Will be sure to share your channel with others~
I need a detailed plant video on bottom watering/ watering prayer plants. I have calathea and im not confident with watering them though they are doing okay. I want to learn to bottom water for gnat control and not over watering. My fear of bottom watering is "wet feet" and root rot
Great tips and I really respect what you said earlier in the video, I always say this, - there is nothing such as a houseplant, they dont exist, we create that term when we bring them inside.
You are so right on letting them enjoy the great outdoors. My pelargonium suffered etiolation even though I kept it in a bright sunny window indoors (I suspect windows filter some light wavelength). Once I moved it outside in direct morning sunlight and fresh breeze it developed a reddish blush on the stem and internodes and leaves became vibrant green. Gardening is continuous learning by experience. :-D
Unfortunately I live in an apartment and I’m on the 3rd floor with only stairs. Wouldn’t be able to take my plants outside. No balcony either 🥺🥺🥺🥺 I just bought a walking greenhouse that I’m putting together for some of my plants that need more humidity. Wish me luck. Btw thanks for all the information u share with us. When i first subscribed to ur channel i had about 15 plants now i have about 80. They r gr8 therapy. Thank you
When you put your indoor plants outside for a time, how do you avoid getting bugs in the soil that will then come into your house and possibly infect your other plants?
Thank you for the awesome quick video! Two questions: 1) are houseplants okay going outside without a hardening off period that you usually do with seedlings? 2) Any tips on de-bugging plants that have been outside for the summer when you take them back inside?
Well, if the weather is mostly the same outside as inside or just a bit colder or warmer: you can just put it outside, it can handle it, but maybe keep it inside during night if the temps drop a lot. (But build it up, so keep it outside like 10 minutes/30 minutes more everyday) Well, it is a lot about which bugs, of you want to do organic. Use coffeegrounds or coffee. For example ants don’t like it.
The “mulch” one is good. I have a zz plant that I have not watered for close to 2 whole months But I have sphagnum moss covering the soil So it’s till moist
Awesome! Thanks for this video. Can you do another video about online.plants and what to do when they don't come in the beat condition. I have an M. Adansonii that shipped awful and I am rehabbing it as the stems feel strong though the leaves are broken. I feel more people should know that not all plants come as pristine as one would think since not all plants travel well.
Good tips. I ordered a Maranta from Planterina simply because I haven't been able to find one locally ever since mine passed away while I was hospitalized from the end of September 2018 to the first of March 2019. Actually, all my plants died. Some I have not been able to replace; but, my collection is growing. Planterina offers free shipping; but, I imagine it's not really free since the price of the plants seem a bit high; but, I have only compared her prices with a couple other sites and I had to figure that if I used another source to save money on the plant; but, make up for that saving with shipping charges, then I haven't saved anything really. With my Prayer Plant, I got a free aloe vera in an extra small pot. It was definitely too big for the pot, so I potted the aloe vera into a clay pot and it seems to be doing okay. The Prayer Plant is still in the nursery pot that it arrived in. I am still figuring out a way to display the plants. I need to do some rearranging on the plant table. Eventually, I will have them arranged to my liking. I love plants and it's nice to have them back in my life; but, here where I live, I'm not sure I would keep any of them out doors. It gets hot, dry, windy, or cold.
Question? Those are Calatheas, which need humidity. You live in San Diego, but you have a humidifier in doors, is the humidity outdoors not enough for indoors as well? I live in Orange County which is similar environment, I’d love to know your input. Love watching your channel. Ty!
Great information. We bring all our plants outside when it gets warm. My pothos leaves grow bigger than my hand, pineapple plants get super strong (ouch😆) and the Purple Heart blooms ❤️.
What should be used for good indoor houseplant mulch? Also do you ever use milk or baking soda when you water? Note: whenever I go on an extended trip I put all my houseplants in the bathtub. I close the shower curtain and the drain and give them a good but not too much shower/soak. It’s always worked well but I did not know that by doing so I was slowing down what light does to them. Good lesson
2:42 - Only if the roots don’t reach the bottom ….and if the pot doesnt have multiple holes .. If theres roots all the way down and the pot has holes the water will drown the roots and rot them ….
Thanks for these great tips! What size are the pots in this video and where did you get them from? I’m having a hard time finding affordable pots and these look really nice! Thanks!!
Thank you so much for touching on acclimating plants. I am in the desert so I can't put them outside. Wondering if I should just put them in a low light room for a week. Right now I have them covered with plastic to cut back on a lot of light☀️
Not related to this, but I'm working on my garden. I expect to really get it going properly next year (😭😭😭). Have you ever made a trellis? Or stairs for garden (not that it looks like you need it)? I figured I would try to utilize all the ridiculous amount of bamboo, instead of waste it, to make trellises. My best garden space is unfortunately up a half wall, and not easily accessible (best area and sun). Thank you for any advice. I'm trying to look through your videos, and I'm sure I'm overlooking things, so sorry
I put my plants outside every spring and summer but we have had a mild below average spring. Tip: to force your spider plant to make babies put it outside in BRIGHT light
Hi, could you please make a video about how to care calla lily indoor? I have failed it for 3rd time already but I love these beauties. After about 2 weeks, the leaves start turning to yellow and falling. The whole plan died slowly after that. Thank you in advance!
Thanks for your simple basic common sense tips. Also, I have to give honorable mention to your beautiful staghorn fern in the background. You know he’s totally photobombing your video right? I would love it if you ever could do a video on the care of staghorn ferns!
Hi Kevin, I just joined the fan team. I just wondering whats that red and green leaf plant is that on your table? Its really gorgeous, never seen anything like that.
Tip #1 can actually be a bad thing for some climates. In India right now, we're coming up to 42°C (108°F). A few years ago, I made the mistake of putting a dull houseplant outside for a couple days in this weather.. it did not make it 😭
I found out the hard way that putting an indoor aloe plant outdoors in the sun is a sure fire way to kill it. You’re plants are definitely beautiful and healthy!
Ah yes, guilty of over-loving my plants. Be careful of sunburn when moving an indoor plant outdoors. Learned that the hard way, she lived, but got a little crispified.
I need some tips on how to care for a Maranta and Calathea indoors! I live in zone 6B so I definitely have to bring them inside for the winter months & I'm terrified to kill them!
I have a question, since quarantine I got really into keeping houseplants, and I have 11 in my room now. A short time ago, I noticed they all have thrips, that ruin my leaves. I don't really know what to do about them because I'm a beginner. They all are standing kinda close together because my room is a little dark and they have to share the light source. (I think that one infected the other and so on. Can you give me any advice on defeating them. Also I have an infected Maranta (same kind as yours in the video) that had besides thrisps some Mealybugs.
I'm think I'm going to put some kind of good-looking plant stickers on my houseplants to remind me how to care for each of them. Maybe a sticker... with your face 😉 lol . (Sometimes we ladies have lines as bad as men) 😂
Help please.... I have a few aloe plants, the leaves don't have any aloe in them. I want to water them, but there are new leaves and pups that are coming up that look fine and I don't want to drown them. They are in gritty soil blend with indirect sun from the north. One is in terra cotta and the other in a glazed pot and both have draining holes.
Do you have any knowledge on Purple Heart plants? I’m just not seeing great content available on RUclips and my pretty baby just seems to be struggling!
I have a question: whenever I did put my houseplants outside, quiet a few came back in with "pests" attached. Little flies, lice etc. What am I doing wrong? Never really caught anything while being inside. So I am actually a bit hesitant to let them enjoy the outside.
Aloha Natalie, you probably did nothing wrong. Outside is where the bugs live. At least you saw the pests, which will give you an opportunity to hose off your infected plants, keep them separated from your "healthy" ones for awhile until you're sure all pests are gone (maybe with some Neem oil help).
I'm learning to just leave them alone....10-15 days in between watering. My zz plant isn't thriving..I ignore it but its not putting out any new growth 😕 but its not my favorite plant either.
What beautiful plants. What is the name of the 2 on the right that I'm looking at? Those are so different. Especially the one with the lines on the leaves. So pretty.🤗
What do you think about using moss on the top layer of a house plant to keep it hydrated if you are on vacation? I just bought some “Oregon” Moss that’s in a bag that I particularly got to make terrariums. Do you think that would work by wetting it in addition to watering and all the other tips you mentioned before leaving on a vacay? P.S. Great professional videos you are creating. They are to the point and on point! Peace, 💚🙂🌱💚
Hi Kevin. I love your channel! Your thorough explanations are great. Your calethea lancifolia is beautiful. I need help with mine, which I've had for about a year. I would really appreciate any advice you have for me. Here's what's going on: A lot of the leaves lost their dark color on the underside and got crunchy/died. I moved it into the shade and leaves are starting to grow again. I watered it and the newly unfurled leaf already has a rotting stem. Too much water, so I took the plant out of its pot to let the soil dry out. I'm trying to keep it pretty shady so I don't fry the leaves again. Am I on track?
I’m not putting anything outside until night temps stabilize over 60, an then only certain tropical, Birds of Paradise, Bougainvilleas, an Hibiscus. Anything I worry about thrips getting on is staying in. 😃
Any cost effective suggestions to increase the humidity in my green house. I ordered grow lights but they haven’t arrived yet and i cannot afford a humidifier

Epic Gardening should you repot when you get your houseplant from the nursery or wait?
@@BigDavos I personally wait for a good week before I re-pot so that the plant gets used to the new environment. Maybe this will help.
Great tips and I really respect what you said earlier in the video, I always say this, - there is nothing such as a houseplant, they dont exist, we create that term when we bring them inside.

Lol. No we don’t have fire escapes.
pretty sure having No fire escape is More Illegal lol
Great tips and thanks for sharing. With this information I'll not throw away my weak plants but pay more attention to them. Thanks so much
When you put your indoor plants outside for a time, how do you avoid getting bugs in the soil that will then come into your house and possibly infect your other plants?
Spray some filtered water with a bit of hydrogen peroxide on top inche of soil and shoots and roots

I'm learning to just leave them alone....10-15 days in between watering. My zz plant isn't thriving..I ignore it but its not putting out any new growth 😕 but its not my favorite plant either.
Wow thanks for the tips!
Love your plants
Loving those pots! Where are they from?
Your plants look amazing :) Great tips thank you!
Great tips! TY!
Does anyone know the names of the the 4 plants in the video from left to right? They look absolutely amazing!
Left- Stromanthe Triostar, aloe Vera, the spotted one is a type of Calathea, and the red lined one is a red maranta
What beautiful plants. What is the name of the 2 on the right that I'm looking at? Those are so different. Especially the one with the lines on the leaves. So pretty.🤗
The one with the red lines is a red maranta (prayer plant)
I use Plantnote app it’s a game changer
What do you think about using moss on the top layer of a house plant to keep it hydrated if you are on vacation? I just bought some “Oregon”
Moss that’s in a bag that I particularly got to make terrariums. Do you think that would work by wetting it in addition to watering and all the other tips you mentioned before leaving on a vacay? P.S. Great professional videos you are creating. They are to the point and on point! Peace, 💚🙂🌱💚
Where did you get that watering jug
Hi Kevin. I love your channel! Your thorough explanations are great. Your calethea lancifolia is beautiful. I need help with mine, which I've had for about a year. I would really appreciate any advice you have for me. Here's what's going on: A lot of the leaves lost their dark color on the underside and got crunchy/died. I moved it into the shade and leaves are starting to grow again. I watered it and the newly unfurled leaf already has a rotting stem. Too much water, so I took the plant out of its pot to let the soil dry out. I'm trying to keep it pretty shady so I don't fry the leaves again. Am I on track?
Vacation? I wish. Soon I hope. 😊😊😊
No kiddin'
Nice tip 👌
Hi thanks so much
This is perfect, I was going to ask you for a good site to order from! Thanks!
No problem!
I’m not putting anything outside until night temps stabilize over 60, an then only certain tropical, Birds of Paradise, Bougainvilleas, an Hibiscus. Anything I worry about thrips getting on is staying in. 😃
Spray it with water before bringing indoors and outdoors there are a lot of natural predators outdoors, you shouldnt really worry about it
Love your watering can. Can you provide a link to buying it ?
Any cost effective suggestions to increase the humidity in my green house. I ordered grow lights but they haven’t arrived yet and i cannot afford a humidifier
Trays of water are free 😋
