Its not a SPG video without Jan's passionate rants and Brad stealing screen time 😹
So true haha 😂😂
I love it when you get so passionate about a subject 😊😊 it's like a teacher scolding his class😅 I'm happy I found you, I'm learning so much 😀😊
Fun drinking game! Drink every time Jan says "hindsight" 🤣
For your friend not being a plant person, it seems like they've kept it pretty nice and healthy. You're a solid guy for giving away your plants and taking care of them afterwards so they're nice for your friends. One of the many reasons I love this channel.
The smallest being in the house always takes up the most space ❤
So true 😂
Thanks Sydney
My cat just ignores me 😿 I would love her to have a conversation like you guys.😺
Monsteras are the best, aren't they! Quite happy to be root bound and dry. 🤗💚
I'm very happy about this video. I potted up my monstera with a moss pole over a year ago, but never filled it with moss due to procrastination 😂 Everyday I felt a little guilty about not filling it up, but not anymore 😂. Since it's an established plant, I lost the timing 🎉 there's nothing I can do about it anymore 😊
I really love the iron wood supports, looks fantastic 😀🇨🇦
Love the iron bark stakes, looks like a real tree.
Everything you said makes sense. Once i chopped my big monstera during the spring, it was enough to give away a few cuttings. I have 2 growing in water and the others were grown roots and put on moss poles. They roots inside the pole are insane. Thank you for your guidance.
Great to hear :) happy growing :)
Wow! Great video! I'm glad I didn't get all of my established plants on moss poles yet. After watching some of your previous videos, I went out and bought materials and began making moss poles with aspirations of having big beautiful plants climbing up them. I was having so much fun, I almost tied my chihuahua to a moss pole to help him grow bigger. Anyhow, I did a number of the things with established Pothos that you so thoroughly explain in here why to not do them. Thanks!
Beautiful video again❤
I watched all of your videos, may be several times
That was so great
I wanted to thank you long ago
Because
In the beginning of the the year I knew nearly nothing about plants, I started my moss pole journey, now my moss poles are nearly about 1,5-two meters high
“Chop and extend” coming soon
And!!!
I have no fear now! I can feel, what my plants want to say, I can wait, I’m much more passionate about them
And! I fired from my previous job in June and since then I work with plants in different places, in restaurants, in hotels, in plant shop, I’ve been working with summer terraces for three months, and they were thriving!
Nothing of this wasn’t possible without your channel!
Sorry for the long read, thank you once again 💚
This was such a good video Jan. The explanations you give in this video are really great connecting the thoughts of someone who hasn’t gone through the steps of using a moss pole or are starting their first moss pole journey 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!:)
Thank you for answering my un-asked question about my adonsonii lol! I bought a full hanging basket last year and up potted with a wire obelisk and wrapped each vine around. It kept giving me smaller leaves as time has passed. I will now repot with all the growth at the bottom and get a moss pole for it to find itself.
Wow!!!! If you were struggling with that plant in that pot, I’d have no chance getting it out. Hahahahaha people have no clue the amount of work, exercise and exhaustion comes from our plants! 🪴
I bet your glad your home and so is Brad!
I love your passion! I think you explained it very well. I needed this video! I made my first 2 moss poles. I wanted to put a few plants on each to fill out the poles. I chopped them up and water propagated them. I recently put them on the poles and the mother plant has multiple nodes and is part way up the poles. So now that’s all wasted space. I knew I needed to cut them back but I’ve been avoiding it. Watching your video has given me the confirmation I needed to chop them back. Thank you Jan and Brad. You guys are the best!
I wish this video was out last week, lol! I just repotted my Monstera and separated them into individual pots on moss poles.
Nothing wrong with that :) they’ll grow better when given more space :)!
Love the repot of the Monstera :), thank you for explaining the pothos and moss pole setup. I now understand why my cebu blue hasn't shown any maturing. I will be fixing that pronto. :D
What a great explanation! Thank you so much for the clear examples. After watching you for a minute now, I feel comfortable re-potting some in my collection. This video has saved me from wasting valuable real estate on my moss poles. 🎉
Glad it was helpful!:)
So sorry Jan, yes yes absolutely your content is most interesting.
But I must say, when you open your videos the first thing
I search for is Brad, especially when he converses with you
he is so stinking cute and super hilarious.
Indeed a show stopper/stealer I just love him.😇TFS
Haha no offence taken :P he’s a superstar 🥰
Thanks to your vids, I swapped my deliciosa to a moss pole the day after I bought her. That was 3 years ago, and she just realized it's there about a month ago 🙃
saving your video's for spring. Its starting to get cold here in the homeland.
Hope winter won’t be too harsh :)
Beautiful I love that idea look more natural.
Thank you! 😊
Great explanation for those people just starting. I think that pole/no pole is just a question of preference.
Thanks :)
Love all your collection house plants 🪴
Thank you!!:)
I know your cats voice better than American cats. I’m a huge fan
Morning from Canada, I love how you have your alocasia cuprea under the grow light. I just moved mine because we are going into winter. Thanks for the tip.
She actually got too much direct sun in the north facing window 😂 she’s been loving the new spot :)
How did I MANIFEST this video!! I’m so glad you are the creator who read my mind!! I’ve been so curious about this because I only have plants on stakes, planks and trellises since all of my plants live outside, pretty much year around at the moment. I’ve even asked a few of my other fav plants RUclipsrs and NONE of them replied. I have a monstera and 3 ft adansonii on stakes that have tons of aerial roots.
The adansonii I want to chop and prop but I’m worried the aerials will rot in water/aroid mix if I don’t cut them back and the monstera is a large form that suffered some cold damage last winter. I basically covered it and the sheet somehow became damp while touching the leaves, then I believe the sheet froze so once it defrosted it melted the leaves. I cut it all back, which was sort of a blessing in disguise because now I have 8 plants of ascending sizes that grew from the chonks!
Unfortunately there is some fungus growing out the drainage holes in the bottom so I’m going to separate the plants in order to put a few of the nicest looking plants on a pole. ❤
My first Monstera and they it is already to big for the pot. I needed this video SOOO much! Thank you a ton.
You can totally put established monsteras on moss poles. Old nodes will root into the pole. New aerial roots will striking from older/lower points along the stem since the pole is emitting humidity. The benefit of doing this is if your pot goes sour and roots rot you still have roots in the pole. I broke up 2 mature monstera pots and put with 4 monsters vines per moss pole and all 12 plants took to the pole. It took straps for about 6 months but looks a lot cleaner and is easier to maintain.
A great repotting !looks like a whole new plant!✨
I have mine in the poles from bunnings...
💚🌿🌵🍀💚
@@sylviagutierrez7676 are they the Maze poles? I just bought some!
Holy molyyy.. I always (!!)understand “Pommes” 👀🙈😂 I’m hungry now🥴😂
😂😂
I have my monstera on a wire only pole and they are doing great. Need to double wrap the wire pole for more support but looks really well.
Love how you put 3 pieces of iron bark together.looks really effective. I was going to use those coco coir most poles just for support for my green monstera. The Thai Constellation is a challenge to put on a pole as it wants to crawl and the internode is so close together. Love the outcome of your monstera. 💚🌿🪴Natalie
I was surprised with how good it looked !!:)
I have five different monstera. My green one is my largest and she is “growing up” using Velcro tape, a wood garden trellis, my Albo is on a moss pole. The other three are just crawling. The crawlers are my Thai, Mint, and Aurea
Very healthy plants
Thank you for addressing this! It must have been devine intervention! In spring I saved a cutting from a "severely neglected office Monstera" to was able to propagate. I made a moss pole and each leaf grew larger. Since March: the small leaf was 13cm. My newest - the 5th - is 28cm! The problem was it kept growing horizontally! This caused me to make 2 additional mosspoles side by side in a vertical pot- even though it has a overhead light. Each node is catching wonderfully to a pole. But when you showed us how the small one would be placed onto the mosspole - I had an AH-HA moment! Palm to face!!! I most definitely planted it sideways by the direction of the leaves instead of the stem! Silly me. Since it is no longer growing season, should I wait or should I propagate the two largest leaves now?
THANK YOU!
Beautiful plant my cat takes my chair all the time like your Bradley 😂
16:51 Amazing sound bite. I'm gonna try it!
Happy growing :)
3:10 More to love 😸 now give him treats
Awesome video! Thanks!
Glad you liked it!:)
I use coconut hush chunks in my Monstera pole. They go into the pole and it saves me from having all those ugly aerial roots all over. My friends Monstera pulled the paint off the wall. I don't water my pole and it is filled with roots. Likely works because of high humidity.
Brads a cuddlebum today ❤ mines like this in the morning, like she’s missed me all night 😂
Any “established “ plant I wanna put on a moss pole, I take cuttings of and root them first, then I’ll put those rooted cuttings on a moss pole and start from scratch, just in the process of rooting cuttings of my Epi Pinn Albo, and a shingling Hoya and Rhaphidophora. 1 for a moss pole, the others for cedar planks, I wish I could afford the tree fern boards to put the shingles on but cedar should work too, I might attach moss to it first
I put my Philo white wizard on a moss pole but it was already 1 foot tall or so, we’ll see if the new nodes attach or not, bit of an experiment
I got a bit moss pole crazy though and made the mistake of putting a little monstera Deliciosa on it.. now the moss pole is full of roots right to the top of its 24 inches coming out the top, AND through the pole down out the bottom of the pot! and the plants stem attaching actually only 1/4 of the way up lol now what?! lol
i created a round living wall terrarium thats about 5ft tall and about 3ft wide (sorry they didnt teach me metric like the rest of the world knows LMFAO) and my supports are CHOLLA WOOD! I used expanding foam on the curved plexiglass and stuck in the wood in a branching pattern and then draped with a recycled fishing net. The lighting is atop and in front. I have a decent amount of plants in there and even a fishtank for one to grow in. I took everything i learned from you and serpadesign and techplant and sheffield made plants and kill this plant's pages to have this success. Every new leaf is a victory!
Sounds like a great setup :)
Hi from France! Please tell us how you do for your beautiful cat not to mess with your plants. Please 🙏🏽
Have a sunny day 😘🌺
He’s just not interested :) i didn’t teach him :P
@@sydneyplantguy you’re soooo lucky 😄
always happy if I can start my workday with SPG a cup of tea and reading emails 😊
My green monstera is on a coco fiber pole, so just a support.
But I just bought a tai con on sunday and might put that on a mosspole. I was at plant market and the prices of tai con have dropped so much here in denmark, just in the last few month. So I could not resist :D
I have 2 cuttings of the monstear albo, but they are very very small and I think one will die soon as it gave me 2 white leaves in a row 🤦♀
My adinsonii needs a chop and extend, but it´s really loosing a lot of bottom leaves right now, I´m a bit scared as I dont know what´s going on. I hope it´s just me not watering the pole enough. Might need to send in a picture to doctor SPG for help 🥺
I love how my monsteras look on a moss pole because they're all growing with smaller internodal spacing, take up less space as theyre 'contained' and look more uniform. Im finding the moss poles with the widest gaps are best like the Propstick 60.
The inter nodes have nothing to do with pole that has all to do with the genus of the plant
Love how you don't edit out the hard bits hilarious 😂
Wanna keep it realistic :)
Fabulous
Monstera Albo on Moss pole for propagation purposes, more related to potential controlling loss of variegation or all white leaves. The rest of my Deliciosas have driftwood poles or nothing. 😻
Agree 💯💯
Ha! I've been wondering about putting my Monstera adansonii on a moss pole or not. It's not trailing yet, but getting there, and I was wondering how I would go about it without having to use propagations. I'm not sure if I have the right space and lighting for growing it on a moss pole though. We'll see what winter brings. Thank you for another very informative, and highly entertaining, video!
Happy growing :)
My Thai constellation monsteras are yellowing all the younger leaves. They are new plants throwing up their sixth and seventh leaves. I think it's a root issue, soil looks problematic. Using an instant liquid fertilizer but it doesn't seem to help. I built my first moss pole and it looks pretty okay, and made a batch of soil, 1 part each: homemade charcoal, chunky coco coir, perlite, and pumice, with a handful of vermiculite and earthworm castings. Transplanting when I get home from work later today.
Brad is a star 😸😻😽😽😽😽😽
He is !!!
I’m in Australia, Bathurst to be specific. Where were you able to acquire ironbark? And I love the video (like always) and Bradley! I love seeing you gorgeous boi!!
Hello neighbor,I grew up in Orange,used to go to Bathurst to get away from Orange 😅
@@pudik2008 very nice!! I’ve only been here almost 2 1/2 years, I used to live in Campbelltown.
I do like going to Orange a lot :)
@@KayBX That’s quite a change,hope you’re enjoying the quiet life. Love Orange,it’s so beautiful there,we moved to Adelaide but go back to visit Orange now and then,got family there,and get very sentimental. 😊
@@pudik2008 it’s so much better!! More quiet like you said, better people (for the most part), much more dog friendly which I love and that’s nice :). I’ve always wanted to move towards this area however we moved here mainly because my older brother and family have moved to Oberon.
Hoping you are enjoying Adelaide :-)
@@KayBX I really miss the greenery of the country but we have more family in Adelaide mine and hubbies,so that is where we settled. Don’t really like the dry heat here but I created a jungle in my backyard and in my home as well,Lol. Now I’m getting sentimental about Orange. Take care. 💚🪴🌿
Always like your videos when it has to do with your poles 😏 haha.. question tho.. when you take cuttings from a moss pole do you just pot em up or put them in a prop mix/bin? Need to chop my pole soon might give away some props to friends
If further propagation is needed really depends on the root system but usually I just pot them straight up :)
Brad just wanted to show of his variegated side 😂
That was careful?!! Lol
😂😂
Kucingmu cantik dan gemoy😻❤️👍👍
He’s the best 🥰
Can you please make a video of just Bradley bloopers lol
😂😂
Those ironbark totems look amazing. Where do you get them?
I found them on ebay:)
💜💜
Where do you get the iron bark pieces from?
Yo dude!
Na sag mal, kannst du überhaupt noch deutsch? 🙈😂
Mal ne frage, warum schimmelt mein sphagnum Moos immer innerhalb max. 1 Woche? Egal ob am Moss Pole, im Topf mit oder ohne Pflanze, ob im greenhouse oder so in der Wohnung. Liegt das an den Moos an sich welches ich habe, vielleicht kein gutes? Günstig war’s jedenfalls auch nicht…
Grüße aus Weissach bei Stuttgart, du machst geile Videos und hast echt Mega Pflanzen! ❤ und dein Englisch, ich hab erst nach vielleicht 8 Videos oder so gedacht, dass du irgendwie vielleicht deutscher sein könntest und irgendwann in nem anderen Video kam dann mal die Auflösung 😂 (schaue die Videos nicht chronologisch, habe dich erst vor kurzem entdeckt aber bestimmt in ein paar Wochen dann alle Videos von dir gesehen😂)
Weiter so dude! 💪🏽🍀
Do you think Brad wonders who you talk to. Maybe he thinks you're a little crazy and needs to give you more attention when your talking and no one is there, see how much he loves you 🤣😺
what is your origin? Jan sounds very Polish. ❤
Born & raised in Germany. Jan is a Dutch name though :)
Cats are the best
What is that plant behind your left shoulder??
Alocasia cuprea :)
@@sydneyplantguy thank you it looks really kool
Wtf happed to the Alocasia in the Back 😱 ... pls tell us how
What do you mean ?!:P she’s thriving hehe :) i have a video about her in my spotlight playlist:)
😻🌿😻🌿😻🌿🤗✌🏼
Where is TIM!!!
At home :)
