    I moved about 30 plants in July, and I was tired. Definitely re-homing some of my larger plants to friends was a life saver. I only lost about 3, bc between the move and Covid-19, I wasn't in the same "plant love" mind space...and I was ok with that. Its October, and I just purchased my first plant since the move (and Covid-19).
    I definitely learned, that real life is priority and our hobbies are here to bring joy and relieve stress, not create it.
    Thanks for sharing.
    Peace.

    Thank you so so so much for this video. I’m planning on moving from NJ to FL in the next few months and all I can think about is how am I going to get my plants there in 1 piece and still look beautiful. I feel better after watching this video knowing we all want our green babies to be beautiful and pristine, but it’s ok to have banged up plants too… it’s part of life.
    Plants always seem to imitate real life events. 😂❤

    I moved last October within Finland, and came to conclusion that plants are a lot hardier than I thought. The temperatures were already quite low, but they had to only endure a 2-hour drive and they all survived. I personally used only cardboard boxes and they worked out great! I totally agree that you should every single plant in some sort of a box. The only plant that I did not put in a box was a weirdly shaped aloe plant and that was the only plant that got a couple leaves crushed. I had a bit less plants than Becca (around 60 at that time) so I guess that made the whole process a bit less stressful ^^

    When I moved my plants I thought it was a good idea to hang the hanging plants during the move. Luckily none fell but they did get a little bruised from bumping against the side of the vehicle. So even tho it is tempting I would say try to bundle up your hanging plants and box them up rather than hang them!

The snow is gorgeous but we get super cold and it dips down to 0°F at night and 10-20°F in the day. I live in a very dry climate and I'm always thinking i wouldn't be able to breath in a high humidity lol
