    Ebuka coming hard with the truth again! I took your advise a few weeks back and got rid of the 4 plants in my collection that always give me anxiety and hardly ever give me any joy anymore. Just chucked them out. Cut them up and chucked them out.
    The sense of relief and the fresh, lighter feeling in my home is huge. I still have 60 plants left, but it's remarkable how much of a difference in my mood it has made to finally get rid of those 4 plants that were just hanging on, dying 0.5% more every day and me doing everything I could to keep them alive.
    Ebuka, you might not always tell us what we want to hear, but you tell us what we need to hear. Bravo sir, bravo.

    I think it's probably dang good advice to consider buying plants that will survive best in one's *worst* season. Then, of course, they will likely flourish during the best ones. Cheers from Iowa, MPD

    You are a breath of fresh air! Love your videos. I am retired and I have quite a fair amount of time to devote to my plants (over 100 in 450 sq. ft.) And yet. Chores have been left wanting, I bought 20 or so new (baby) plants, and there is untidiness a foot. I did get rid of 10 or so big plants and installed grow lights. I am only human, I'm doing my best. By the way there is no more buying of plants until spring. You believe me, right?
