The 'up-speak'???? Oh my goodness, Fern, do people have too much time on their hands to complain about something as trivial as that? Your content is incredible: so inspiring and educational, delivered in such a relaxed and positive way. That's all that matters to me. Please don't change! You're a natural! 💙💙💙
Literally just misogyny and society’s general hatred of women!
Right?! I've been watching for years, Fern is my fave youtuber, and I have never even noticed her (ever) doing that!! It's not obvious to me at all (unlike a Kardashian)
I can't edit my comment for some reason, I forgot this! 💙
@@amandapetkov6591 I totally agree, Amanda! I hadn't noticed either and I haven't even bothered trying to analyse Fern's voice afterwards as a result 😅 Seriously, when you admire someone who has a good heart and is so interesting and creative, that's all that matters 🤗
@@graceaxisa4213 Totally agree too! Helps we aren't petty, lol
People be wild. I never even noticed this “upspeak” in the way you talk. I enjoy listening to you. Who cares. Don’t let people bother you. 💙😊
lol same! I still don't hear it. I wonder if as a fellow Canadian, we all speak this way?
Love your videos. Congrats on the new house.👏🏻 Don’t change your voice or anything for anybody, you are perfect just the way you are, you have great energy! I’m an old fart, trust me you can’t please everybody.
Oh wow, just came back inside from repotting one of my hoya and alocasia. Going to watch this to relax and cool down a bit, as it's really hot here in Germany rn! :) Hope everyone is having a nice day💕🌱
Thank you for watching & stay cool! 🥶🫶
how can someone say that about your voice? its so genuine and one of the things that makes me really enjoy the videos, give a nice cozy vibe, like when you are talking with a friend yk? people are mean for no reason
I don't know if people even know that's mean to speak their annoyances. They just were never taught social graces.
Loving how supportive you are, just casually advertising other creators 💙💙
Fern, unfortunately there will be those evil people trying to bring you down.. Don’t let them.. You are perfect the way you are ❣️🙏🏼🥰
Hi Fern. So glad to hear someone else puts crystals into their pot plants. I do the same. It's my Marie Kondo way of welcoming my plants into their new home. Plus, crystals look beautiful alongside the plants. I love the look of your Hoya quinquenervia, what a beauty!!!!! I'm not sure why others are concerned about your speaking voice? I'm not really sure what upspeak is, but I think you speak very well, and the sound of your voice is very nice. Just be yourself!!! Enjoyed your pot and chat. 🪴💜💜💜💜
Can’t wait to see what you do with your new space! It already looks so beautiful with all your plants!
The Dioscorea fits perfectly with that cover pot. Please don’t even try to change you natural speech for critics; they’re not worth it; I like it!💙
Hi Fern 💫 I always love it when I open RUclips and there’s a new video from you!! And please girl, don’t let those people who comment on your speaking bother you. You are an amazing individual and we are all unique just as we should be. You keep doing Fern ~ we love her. 💙💙💙💫
I’m big on keeping handwritten bullet journals/notes. I’ve always been more consistent with a physical book, rather than a digital one because I can never stay consistent otherwise. I have one that’s more calendar style for bills, todos, appointments, etc. and one for my plants! It’s like my morning routine to do my notebooks and coffee on the porch before starting/during plant care. I usually do one plant per page and get layout styles from Pinterest. I also use tabs to label the pages for easier accessibility. ❤
you are my fav planty person and honestly maybe even my comfort youtuber now that i think about it. you bring so much joy to everyone around you and to a bunch of us online as well. please never change and never let anyone take your light away from you. sending lots of good vibes to ya!
You are the sweetest 🥺 the shirt is from tropicsnarcotics.com and code FERN10 gets you a discount xx
I actually find the way you talk in your videos really inspiring because it just shows that you’re a genuine person in your verbiage! You’re never in a hurry to say anything, you speak seamlessly. I’ve always thought so so what others have said is confusing to me lol
I love the way you speak, Fern, and your overall demeanour is delightful. You are so positive and enthusiastic about plants, your sweetie pie, Olive and many other topics. I really enjoy your channel. Thank you ❤
Always love ‘hanging out with you’ on your channel; there’s a reason you have all the followers you do, and it’s because we all love and support you 💙💙💙
I have 300+ plants. I keep a Google spreadsheet with all the plants names, purchase date, place purchased and price plus some other columns. Each plant has a linked Google Doc with pictures of when I bought it and major updates. I also document repots, etc. I take pictures on my phone then email them to myself to put in the Google Document from my computer.
It’s awesome to be able to see how much each plant changes over time.
Great system!
I love it. No need to pay $30-$40 a year for an app I probably wouldn’t use anyway…
Wow! Organization goals for sure!
Oh wow, sounds like a lot of effort! I just use the planta app (free version, I don’t like the premium version 😂)
Love watching your videos while having a snack and a cozy beverage 🍵 can't wait to see more videos and updates in your new place and don't let the negative comments get you down. Those people are just insecure about themselves. Can't wait for the next one 💙
So glad to see you in your lovely bright new house! You seem relaxed and happy. Also, that little deer hopping around in your yard is adorable! 💙🩵💙🩵
A way that I keep consistent with my watering and plant care in general is by sections, I have three cabinets and two shelfs so I water them one at a time, it takes time to get everything on the same schedule but its so worth it!
love seeing you in such a happy and positive positive mood, it fits you so much better than then being so stressed out, welcome back to the happy Fern I love to see. 💙
🌿 You look and sound so happy and content Fern, looking forward to all your upcoming content in your beautiful new home 🏠 💙
Okay, so I have 150+ plants in my collection and what’s worked for me is organizing my plant based on care requirements, so high water plants hang out with each other and low water plants hang with each other, it really helps to keep track of what I need to do
You’ve been using “we” in your last two videos and ive been fangirling even though you haven’t said anything specific 😂😂😂 rooting for you!
You handled that up speak comment so gracefully. I most definitely would not have been that poised and I'm so happy you addressed it. You are awesome. Love your repot videos. 💚
The comments about the way you speak😱 I’ve never even thought about that when watching your videos. I’ve been watching you for years and I’ve always loved listening to you😅❤️
So happy to see your black velvet doing so well! I haven’t been successful with getting any corms to grow so I will definitely try your method. And I must say please don’t ever change anything about you. I think you are wonderful just as you are🥰
I rescued a black velvet and regrew the main corm and the babies easily in a prop box! Never done it before. Left in a bright spot, perlite and sphag mix! Just thought I’d mention in case it helps you!
Fern…I think your speech is just fine! Block those crazy people….I bet they are the kind that will complain about anything & everything. (Karen’s) I was taught as a child if you can’t say something nice…don’t say anything at all! Keep doing what you are doing! I love your channel & have learned so much from you. Thank you!
You are fabulous Fern! Don't let ANYONE tell you differently. Your videos are amazing to watch, informative, and you are so pleasant and enjoyable to listen to. Enjoy your new home! I am thrilled for you! 💙
Congrats on the new home!!! You should be so proud of yourself! What a great milestone of life!!
You're amazing and don't let anyone make you feel bad about the way you speak. I love your channel! Thanks for all the great info and congratulations on your house!
Thank you so much Lisa 🥰
You are your authentic self and that's why I love watching you 💙 Congratz on your home!
You are officially my favorite RUclipsr! Can’t wait for more content from your new home and just wanted you to know I’m so happy to see you looking healthy and relaxed! Your videos always make me happy. Love from Poland!
Hey Fern, you do you!
One of my favorite sayings is:
Don't be blown about by every wind...
I always bring that to mind whenever someone tries to throw me off balance. I'm Old so trying to throw me off doesn't work anymore. 😁
😊🌷💚
Congrats on the house! I know I was so happy when we bought ours and I had some space (and windows) to spread out. Your videos always make me so happy. I just lost someone close to me and your positive vibe is helping soothe my soul. 💙💙💙
I love repotting videos 🥰 it makes me want to repot my plants even though they don’t need it 😅
I’ll just live vicariously through you with the repotting today instead🤣
hahaha awe I wish you could come over and repot some of mine! 😃
@@wildfern ahhh you have so many plants that would be so fun hahah might be a bit of a commute coming from NS though🤣🤣
Love to hear that you have figured out your own position on the upspeak-critics. Don't let them reduce the ways of expressing yourself. :)
Btw I really like your accent! It reminds me of the time I've lived in Canada (I'm originally from Germany) and it is really nice to get the PNW vibes a little while watching your videos ❤
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that 😊
Hi,Fern. Always interesting. I cannot understand how you moved all those plants. A true feat!!
I use hooks with magnets in my cabinet (not an ikea cabinet). If the shelf is metal, that would work. Also, soil mites can be found wandering around on leaves and hiding in cataphylls too, especially if you’ve just watered the plant. If you look at a soil mite with a microscope, the mature ones have little tails that look like three or four little hairs on their butts ☺️
Fern do you girl! Don’t worry about those trolls. Their life is miserable. I absolutely love your accent! ❤
💙 that book sounds so interesting, I’m glad you don’t care about what they have to say about the way you speak, and I appreciate you providing some insight/education in this video! CLEARLY the world needs it 😂
You could use the towel method on any size leaf that seems stick to avoid leaf damage.
Don't change the way you speak. Its a part of you and and one of many reasons people watch you're videos. Im from sweden and I realy like to listen to you. Easy to understand and easy to follow.
Hey Fern!! I have all of my alocasias in a self-watering set up. I just use thick cotton wicks and deep cover pots. I use my chunky aroid mix as well to prevent rot :)
I do mine in sections and also break them down between ones that are in water as opposed to soil. One day I'll take care of all my plants in water, the next, I do plants in soil etc, while diving my plants into sections.
I do use a plant app for my 150-ish plants. I don't always update the photos and notes, but I try to if something big happens (like I treat for bugs) and I use it when I water so that I can look back and see how frequently plants are tending to want it -- that way I can adjust their suggested care schedule in the app to make it work better for my environment.
Self watering pots have saved my life. I’m back loving begonias because of them. They’re the best.
Fern i have found that heavy duty magnets help me in my cabinet a lot. They work extremely well!
Congrats on the move 🎉 as for alocasias. The best advice I’ve seen up here is water when the meter reads a 4 and keep in south facing windows. It’s been working for all 5 of my varieties. They’re in soil,perlite, cactus mix
I was ABOUT to recommend Wordslut because it talks about the upspeak stuff and I think you’d find it fascinating!! It’s so good. Also loved her other book Cultish! 37:59
And about the Dioscorea discolor, oh my god, I am so happy to see you the expert with a plant like this because I totally ruined my cissus discolor which is a very similar one... I bought it for like 80$ and it was huuuge it had like 2 meter long vines with huge leaves... turns out I had no idea that these guys literally need the highest humidity and can only really survive in greenhouse conditions... so it lost ALL its leaves but I didn't wanna give up so I trimmed it back, kept the pot the whole winter, just in some random corner, almost never watered and now I put it out on the balcony and I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EYES... it really has new growth sprouting like CRAZY💙 so yeah really looking forward to you talking more about these kind of viney plants because I still only know so little about the species💙
Nothing better than a relaxing, repotting video with Fern 💙💙💙
💙 Congratulations on the new house!!! I have truly enjoyed watching everyone of your videos for years now. I am so looking forward to seeing you and your new space transform in the coming years.
So happy for you and your new house! I've only made smaller diy moss poles so far, but I inserted in of those metal garden stakes into the middle of it to give it support. You might be able to slide a stake into the moss pole in the middle and see if it helps, at least in the meantime.💙
I keep an excel spreadsheet of all my (225) orchids, where and when I bought them and a photo when I get them to bloom. I mainly keep it so I don’t buy repeats 🤷♀️
Gah, I love your “accent” don’t stop the high endings to your sentences! Thank you for answering all these questions. ☺️💙💙💙💙
Reusing plastic food containers as plant pots! Love it!
💙 I want you to know that I watch your videos for your energy and your vibes and I can’t believe you get hate for the way that you speak! I am literally shook. Don’t let the haters get you down! Keep doing you!!
Fern congrats on house!!! Love the video and I have a Serpens coming I a little nervous but glad for the tips about lighting and humidity love the way speak everyone in the world does not need to be the same I adore who you are take care and have a wonderful weekend. 💙
So far I like the app “picture this” for my care scheduling , I’m a bit new to being a crazy plant mom so I’m using the app, working well so far, I make adjustments as needed and it has all the pics and notes of progress and care documented
💙 🥰 Congratulations on your new home!🎉🎉🎉. Perfect pot glow up for your Discorea💓💓! I love their little tendrils 💖. So excited for you to be able to sit and report! You look so much more comfortable 🥰😍🤩💞😘
Thank you for the update on the self-watering pots! It makes me so happy to see you enjoying your new place! 😍
💙
I'm loving your new place!! I'm SO very happy for you!!😁
I just wanna add that I genuinely got upset by the fact people have put you down the way you talk😢 I mean that's one of the many things I adore about you! O love the way you talk/voice and all.. Anyway, I'm sorry they do that but kudos for moving on and realizing that's there problem not yours!😁😘
Here in Scandinavia, our languages use a lot of "up-speak", and I have never questioned your way of speaking, because I use it too.😊 Actually never really knew it was a thing.🤔
Whoever is leaving comments about Fern’s accent,STOP! It’s not kind at all. What’s your motive behind it anyway!
It’s yours Fern and don’t change it for anyone,there’s bigger problems in the world today to worry about such a small and totall irrelevant thing! Nice video as usual Fern! Icy love Natalie ❤️🪴🫂🪴
I watch your videos over and over. They are so informative
😊
💙I can't believe anyone would have a problem with "upspeak". I didn't realize it was a thing and didn't ever notice until you spoke about it. It's just you, so enjoy being you, it makes you unique.
💙 Thanks for your amazing channel. I really like your style and the way you speak. No need to be anything else. And I wish you have great and happy times in your new home and be blessed! 🙏🌻
💙 I absolutely love the way you speak! Part of why I enjoy your videos.
You are glowing and look really happy in this video 💙 I love the way you speak, don’t let the haters bother you hun! 💙 Sooo happy for you Fern 💙
Congratulations on your new house! Thank you for showing off you plants and it inspires me to keep trying. (Currently have a thrips outbreak) I just found you a couple days ago but enjoy watching your videos, makes me feel like we’ve been friends forever lol 😂 keep doing what you’re doing 💙
The upspeak is very charming on you Fern!! Don’t let them get to you! Happy looks good on you! 💙
The discorea is so cute in the new pot and with the clear trellis.
I love your videos and also your voice. I learn so much about plant care from you. 💙
I think, the way you speak is nice and that people who complain about something like this are miserable grumps!🥰🥰
English is not my 1st language and honestly I think the way you speak is adorable and not that I've noticed this upspeak thing in the first place💚
Up talking takes me back to my youth in Cali. You and Harli do it well😊. Keep doing you Fern. Some folks need to relax and let folks live.
I can't possibly fathom that anyone would feel the need to send hate to Fern, the literal cutest and sweetest content creator! Love these vids, keep them coming! Congrats on your property too :)
your videos are my favorite part of my day!
I cracked the code with my black velvet, it gets so easily stressed with too much soil or too much pot room. I downsized my 2 leaf black velvet into a smaller pot and now it's at 4 leaves. I've been bottom watering instead of top watering amd it's MUCH happier ❤
I’m always happy when I have a new video from you.. Tension rods are great for hanging plants and no holes needed.. How has Olive adjusted to the new house? Keep living your best life and enjoy your new home. 🎉❤💚🐶🪴
I don't comment often, but I wanted to say this. Just ignore the people complaining about your "up-speak". I never even noticed it until it was pointed out by that comment, and only for a little bit. And, to be honest, the way you speak doesn't matter, what's important is that the information you provide is useful and educational, which it is. Please don't let the complaints bother you. 💙💙
So wild people feel the need to comment on how you speak. For what it’s worth, I love the way you speak and all of your content💙
Attach a bamboo stake to the back of your moss pole it will prevent the bending. Can't find wire mesh anywhere either here in FL. Amazon has green mesh ugh
I use the “planta” app. It helps me keep up with watering. I snooze or skip as needed by each plant. It’s just a reminder. I like the progress notes. I rarely take pictures cause I’m usually sitting in my chair writing the notes. And I’m comfortable with a blanket and my dog Hoover by my side.
Hi Fern! I have >100 plants and I use a spread sheet on my MacBook to keep track of my plant care. I keep in the same file each month in a different sheet, rows for plants and columns for days. to fill it quickly I came up with a code e.g. x=simple watering, w=shower, PT= pests thrips, PM= pests mealie bugs, pot= repotting and so on. I just can't keep in mind when I did what on which plant if I don't use my spread sheet 😅
Keeping the deer and rabbits away from plants outside is something we struggle with at my home as well. I don't know if it's your kind of thing, but there is a product called Liquid Fence that you spray around the plants that you want to keep protected from wildlife. I use it mostly for flower beds, they like our lilies. It smells awful when applied, but works pretty well for us. I've heard other people in the gardening spaces online say it works for them as well. Congrats on the new home!
Re keeping track of what you do with plants: I have 3 plant spaces in my house (about 150 plants total), so I keep an A5 binder in each space with a page for each plant. It's easy enough for me to pick up the little binder and flip through as I water/fertilize/treat for pests. I find it much easier to keep up with something physical like this rather than an app because it's right in front of me :)
You're making me want those thick bangs. They look so good!
Don’t change the way you talk. I find it soothing.
Thank you 💙
for keeping track of plants, I've been really into voice memos lately. I hit record, carry my phone around and just say all my notes as they come to me. I can listen back at more than double the speed and write down the really important things in a todo, and write down the fun notes in a bullet journal if i want. I find that i don't even have to be consistent with it but im overall more on top of things!
Oh that is a smart way to do it, love that :)
🥰
Also- the way you speak is adorable and such an endearing feature of yours. ❤
I absolutely love your upspeak or whatever it is. It's a part of you and your personality. Absolutely do not apologize. Some ppl have wayyy too much time on their hand to leave hate comments. What a shame💙
You are so kind, thank you 🫶🥹💖
💙 Love repot videos and really loving the new filming set up.
Excited to see more of your new home looks amazing 💙💙
When it comes to hanging up the grid in your Milsbo, I have found that clear command strip hooks work best. I got them from my local Family Dollar for like five bucks but they hold up fairly well in mine. I even made some macramé hangers for a couple of Hoyas in my cabinet, and since the hook can go back and forward, it works on the ceiling of the Milsbo to hang to mini hangers
Thiccly has some large poles for larger plants too! You could try those if you don’t want to buy a whole roll of wire mesh
Oh really? I didn’t know they had even bigger ones 👀
“Our” living room?! Girl did I hear you right?! ❤ Congrats on the new house 😊
Yes! Thank you :)
I made an excel for my plant. Basically their name, and following many empty cells. I will print the table out and fill in the date whenever I water them (and also fertilize). About every month or two I change another table. I have used this method for more than two years, honestly it is really convenient.
Negative uptalk comments really show off people's (un)conscious biases I personally love your voice, Fern, and I've never noticed any uptalk, even after you've pointed it out lol. I love listening to you talk about just about anything and your plant videos have been a balm for my stressed out soul--also in the process of moving currently!💙
