I saw an ig plant account that used the clear plastic tubing meant to protect fluorescent tube light bulbs to build poles. They cut it down the center and used netting in the front. The moss maintained its dampness longer and they did not have to deal with the roots tangling in a lot of netting. It also looked very nice.
Part 2 of the lazy moss pole will be coming out soon where I use clear plastic sheets to make them! Definitely way more humidity locking than net, but a bit more difficult to make in my experience. Interesting that someone used a light tube! Never in a million years would I have thought of that.
I love this idea! I’ve always lost patience with moss poles bc when it’s time to chop, you lose all the roots that have grown into the pole. This is very easily de and reconstructed, so I think it’s a great alternative
Hi hi! I find that if I saturate the sphag with water, it makes the unwrapping/detangling process so much quicker 🙌🏼
Thanks a million!!! I just ordered everything I need. I didn't like the idea of buying pricy premade plastic poles and later have to buy extentions or risk cutting them up. This is genus and makes so much sense!! I'm very excited.
Wow! I am going to convert my poles! It is so practical ( you use less moss, it’s less hassle)
less moss and way easier to reuse the materials!! maybe wait until part 2 comes out soon before you make yours! I'll do a tutorial on how to make two other kinds of lazy poles!
@@unplantparenthood ooooo that’ll be interesting!!! Will do☺️
Love this idea. I've always been afraid of moss poles..(Seems like a pest hotel 🏨). Might give this one a try though, given it's simplicity. I live the way you layer substrates as well,, I just don't understand how you choose which ones for which plants. I live mixing my own substrates, mine are the usual: coco coir, bark, perlite, horticultural charcoal, sometimes moss and worm castings. Pudge trying to trick you🙃, so cute...my dog does the same in 15min increments for 45minutes prior to dinner and stomps back to his bed with a sigh! You have me looking for a pug at our shelter on the regular. I have a handsome American staffordshire terrier mixed with Frenchie, they're called Frenchie-staff we rescued him from the shelter, but he needs a friend. He's such a love 🥰❤🐛! FYI: I know you're shy, but you are beautiful💕
This is exactly what I’ve been trying to fig out how to do!! I have so many plants that are about the o get lazy poles 💚💚 thanks for the knowledge
Your lazy moss poles are ingenious & look nice.
Ty for this video.
I’m about to attempt my 1st ever DIY moss pole & will try your method.
Your Philly’s are just lovely!
I just love your sense of humor 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😘
Back to watch again while I make some lazy moss poles 🥰I'm obsessed!!🤪
Watched Ferns yesterday and got all excited about making moss poles, now we get a second treat with your vid! 🪴🌿🍃
Same💚💚
Spring is around the corner and all the plants are waking up! 🤩
I'm going to use this idea with my next repot. One of my biggest gripes with moss poles is lack of stability. I swear a month after I do the whole thing, I see the pole leaning and it drives me batty. I feel like the pole would be even sturdier if you put some of that mesh down in the pot. That width could help with stability. I'm going to try it!
I’m new to your channel. I’m so glad it popped up. I want to try using the lazy moss poles. What a great invention. I enjoyed watching your video because you don’t talk a hundred miles an hour . I’m 66 and have bad tinnitus so it is so hard to make out what is being said when the young planttubers talk fast. I love your little dog too. So precious. Thank you for this nice relaxing video. I subscribed. 💚🌿🪴🌱💚
I feel like I have just had my mind blown open!! I normally do not use a moss pole for all the reasons you said. I force my plant up a solid pole with velcro ties so that I can change it....knowing they will not get as large but it breaks my heart to break the roots!!
Scrapping those dead tissues of plant is so satisfying. I think I'm going do to it here on. Does it actually helps with root growth ? Lastly how you managed to keep everything thing clear. Including your scooper. Honestly amazing
I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m definitely going to try these lazy moss poles cause I tried the regular moss poles and just didn’t like the look of it.
I really like the lazy Moss pool idea! That was one of my issues with moss poles besides the fact that I can't keep them significantly moist was that the roots would get tangled up and it would be really hard to get them out of the pole. Thank you for this!
I like the lazy moss poles, they seem so much easier to make too.
I was thinking of trying something similar and this is exactly what I had in mind.
Yasss I need a lazy tutorial cuz I’m a lazyy gorllll🥰🥰
we love lazy gorls!!
Pudge, you were born for the camera. I like both the root growth and the easiness of getting them back out of your lazy moss pole--you're basically air-layering the whole plant. My plants are all out in my living room and part of the decor, though, so I don't know whether I want to be looking at this all day (I have the same problem with regular moss poles).
I would definitely not use any lazy poles outside of any greenhouse because some of them can be super ugly 😆 I used to be really neurotic about my greenhouses looking really nice but now I just want something practical that makes the plants happy- mostly because I am just lazy these days hahaha
Pudge says THANK YOU and he appreciates you!!
Makes sense!
Can't wait for part 2. I think this is my 4th time watching this😂🥰🥰
yayy!!!! pudgey is backkkkk
He's been making small appearances here and there! 🥰
Don't worry about talking too much hahaha Adhd and I have got all the content I consume at 2x speed 😂😂 sth I did cus I just didn't have time or money and aesthetics isn't such an issue yet, is I cut up a few plastic bottles to make the D shaped back, which I then slightly reshaped with heat. I then made holes in the cut up bottles to overlap/make them longer and connected the holes I made with zipties.... for the mesh I just used the plastic bags you have left over from buying a large sack of oranges/potatoes/onions etc... I'll switch up to what you did (mainly cus it looks nicer) but my Philo Splendid is loving the budget pole 😂😂🤷♂️😅
Thax for the tip!
She’s definitely not ugly. 🪴
question: once a plant outgrows the moss pole, can you just keep clipping, or topping it off to produce a fuller plant without having to change it out to another taller pole?
Cool! I actually just bought the plastic D-poles you mentioned. Can't wait to use them, but first I have to decide for which plants.
I think in a few paycheques I'll spoil myself with a few of those D shaped poles too! They're super nifty and I like how easy it is to re-open them and re-use it. I'd love to know how they work for you once you get them on your plants!
Can't wait to try this on my jose bouno 🤩 Thank you so much! Love your videos!! 💗😁
Let me know how it works for you Meghan! 🥰
You so awesome.. I love how you work with your plants…❤️
Thank you so much Nova 🥰
Hi!! Filipino here from Singapore here hehe. Yahh regarding the plastic poles previously there was only one company doing that type here, but there are now a lot haha, and they have different features, like sone are adjustable in size, some can both be D shaped or cylindrical. I just try them all lol.
I love these ideas!! There’s so many fun cool ways to moss up plants I love Alice’s and yours I want to try both! Y’all creative ladies 😎🤓 I love seeing the different ways people do things because there’s no one right way, just ways that work better for some and the fun part of plant parenthood is finding the best ones for you!
Since I’m about as creative as a carrot 🥕 I really love being able to grab inspiration from others so I love this video 🥰 send pudge my love xoxo gossip girl
I've been converting all my poles recently too, but they are actually more work to make so I'm interested in your lazy version, cuz I'm lazy too and I don't wanna spend 40-1hr to make my d-shaped poles 😤
I like the idea of the D-shaped poles but I just can't really spend the time to do it either- I also just love how easy it is to take apart a lazy pole when needed! Let me know how the lazy pole works for you!
Awesome, thank you!🌿
Enjoy your video. Can you please tell where to netting thank you
I love this and just ordered the stuff to make it!!
Yay!! I hope it works well for you! 💚
😱 I love this lazy pole will be trying them seems so practical and like you said less damaging to the roots❤️ lmaoooooo pudge walking away since breakfast time still was awaiting lol 😂 so cute 🥰
I'm excited to show you guys part 2! it'll be even easier to remove the roots 🙌 let me know how it works for you!!
I think the idea of the lazy piles is great. The big tall poles can tip over a plant. These won’t pull them over.
They're definitely less clunky 👏
What did you add to the roots at 25:05?
I love this! What was it that you sprinkled on the roots? What does it do?
Watching this gave me the idea to try this with clear plastic shelf liner. I live in Arizona so I think having a moss pole structure that can retain a little more moisture between watering would help.
Nice! I’m glad I have a 3D printer I just print my own :))
So lucky! Oh the things I would do with a 3D printer 😍
I have been following your Instagram for a long time but never realized that you have a RUclips channel as well! Love it 😃
Lazy moss poles ALL THE WAY!! #allhaillazypoles 😂😂😂
lazy lazy girls make lazy lazy poles 😌
Love the new logo 💚
Thank you Tiffany!! 🥰
I made a couple similar to your version tonight. Once I did the first one it didn’t take very long lol. I’m curious to see if it will be easier keeping them moist this way.
My lazy poles are all staying pretty damp inside of the greenhouses! I don't think I'd recommend using this style pole for plants in drier areas (like outside of a greenhouse), unless you're really good about re-wetting them daily!
Let me know how they work out for you!
Did I hear Singapore????? Power lah, you. Welcome to Singapore. Selamat Datang!
Beautiful specimen.
It's gonna be alot easier if you shake it in the water first for removing the moss from the roots. Make sure to try it next time 😉
I’m 99% positive that the Philodendron sp Colombia is a terrestrial plant! I don’t think it’ll climb the moss pole like a climbing philo would
Sure, sometimes the growth pattern of some terrestrial plants may “look” like they’re climbing, but in reality they’ll never climb a pole as they don’t create aerial roots but rather terrestrial roots
What growing conditions are you giving your sp Colombia? Mine aborted 2 new leaves :(
Is that little metal tool for dabs? 😂
I need to learn how to water spag moss just right. It's easy to wring out until just damp at the beginning but once planted? I deal with rot 🙄 wahh. I want to go to no-drainage but I struggle even with the holes.
I usually use a squeeze bottle to re-dampen my moss! My method is I squeeze water around the perimeter of the pot to get all the edges, and then I zig zag across the top of the pot to saturate the rest. Don't worry if there are dry areas, because the water will disperse throughout the substrate over time. Just make sure it's not packed too tightly! I did do a video about sphagnum moss if you haven't watched it yet- I quickly go over watering!
Th k you I needed this video
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!
What is that little scrapey tool?
I love your content, love your insta, love all your videos so far, so please don’t change anything❤️❤️❤️ I’m just curious, do you have what your exo sizes are somewhere? I’ve looked thru your insta for info but couldn’t find it, I’m sorry if you have it somewhere… love from northern Alberta 😎
Amazing channel
Thank you Leah! 🥰
So cleaning a chunk,,stimulates roots,,You think??
Stimulates both root production and activates axillary buds! Very similar to "scarification" in gardening!
I thought that was weird that you’re SP Colombia is growing up, “ I thought those where crawlers ?”
I've seen them do both! But most of the specimens I'm seeing here in North America are climbing. I'm not sure if it's the nature of how they're propagating them but if I had to take a guess I want to say they are naturally terrestrial.
I’m just wondering because I just got one and mine is a crawler😖 it’s so confusing.
Do you recall the nail color you're wearing in this vid?
Envy the adventure from OPI!
@@unplantparenthood thank you.
can CalMag be used for plants in soil and semi hydro? 🌱
It sure can!
Where did you get the plastic sheeting?
Hi Lish! It's linked in the description :)
Did you put the cuttings in your prop box?
Hi Lisa! I potted them all together in one pot. I show it at 44:05 😊
cest quoi ton melange de terreau
A 10 advance button would have been nice as there was so much time spent cleaning and no way to get to the start of the next section.
Are you not able to fast forward the navigation bar? You can skip to any part of the video you want.
What is the mesh Cale’s at Amazon ?
It is linked in the description! 💚

Help 🙏🏻❤️☺️
Hi Birgitte! It is a Philodendron squamicuale 💚
Good video. I’m getting Lotsa wonderful ideas from you.
Ty & good luck!
Please kiss Pugs for me. ❤️
I love your content, personality and Pug but i find it difficult to watch your videos without seeing a face... please consider bringing the camera upwards.. i always look forward to your informative and interesting videos❤
Hi Kathryn! Thank you so much for saying that. As far as your suggestion, I have a little copy and pasted message I use to address this since it’s actually requested of me very often 😅
As a creator it’s important to remember boundaries, and for me being extremely self-conscious and having my ADHD triggered when I can see myself speaking (can’t keep a train of thought / fumbling over words), I have to find a healthy balance of what works for me. I don’t show my face for any other reason than the fact I’m just not comfortable. I understand that style isn’t for everyone, and I’ve accepted that this RUclips channel will likely never get as big as other channels because of this, but I’m just not willing to put myself in an uncomfortable position for the sake of creating videos. If I didn’t create videos without showing my face, I wouldn’t have been able to put out as many as I already have.. So if I’ve made the choice to create content that makes ME feel good and is still enjoyable for a much smaller audience. I do fully understand where you’re coming from and know there are people out there who cannot watch videos without making a connection with a face, but I thought it was important to voice where I’m coming from too and why I film the way that I do. Hope that makes sense!
@@unplantparenthood thank you for your explanation ❤
I know it may seem silly- but it’s my life 😩 I actually didn’t finish my bachelors program because of a public speaking class. I couldn’t stop the panic attacks and it was a whole thing. 😮💨 anyway.. I’m sorry that the headless thing can be uncomfortable for you. I am trying to show my face here and there slowly (mostly in the plant chores video)! Thank you for hearing me out ♥️
@@unplantparenthood i understand completely..i actually watch planty YT videos to relax.. but i felt a little anxious watching you.. i did notice in one if your videos you tripping over your words and in the same video saw your face.. but that's what makes you're videos special... you being you.... anywaysi usually walk away from the tv while watching any plant related videos and start tending to my plants (100).. while keeping the volume turned up anyways 😊.. it gets me motivated ❤ thank you for your contribution and helping keeping our plants healthy and happy.
I appreciate you for being here Kathryn! 🥰
Jesus Christs, pugs do really lookls like they are suffering just beeing alive.
Don’t use Jesus’ name in vain
