How to test for viruses on your Houseplants at home!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 дек 2021
- Buy your own virus testing kit! Either use the company we found or search online. But here is the exact test we used. The detection rate is equivalent to a laboratory test. Viruses included in the test can be found in the TECHNICAL INFORMATION tab.
Easy peasy!
Remember - this doesn't technically mean that a plant passing this test is not viral, it simply means we can rule out all of the viruses listed in this technical spec.

"if you're going to do this at home this is the shade I suggest you use" 😂😂 we love a sassy informative queen👑💚
THANK YOU for sharing this and not only that....thank you for stating that just because it tests negative for the common ones doesn't mean that it is 100% in the clear. Just means that what is typically tested for doesn't show up. I guess maybe one good thing with COVID is people are more familiar with rapid tests now. I'm a scientist and for an entire year of my career I ran ELISAs testing for tomato spotted wilt virus and it just drives me nuts when people have no idea how these things work. Lol. Thanks for sharing this video!
"Okay super serious science time now..." 🤣 So, you're saying testing for a virus is easier and takes less time than spreading a whole hate campaign in defense of an ugly plant? Weird. (I actually didn't know it was this simple but would expect any serious and responsible sellers to know.) Always great to have a guest appearance from Ben! And that end song... 💀
yes the end song! she so sassy......love it!!
Love seeing the science and the sass. My favorite bit was listing the NYX shade
Nice and transparent testing for all us to see unlike someone else
Lol I'm honestly living for the continued shade in these comments 🤣
I absolutely LOVE this video! Not just the science aspect but on so many layers. Love love love. I saw a crazy gloriousum with a double mutant leaf on Etsy and kinda wanna buy it and test it now. Lol Nice to see Ben too. Ya’ll have a great day! 💚
You know what else has layers
🧅🧅🧅🧅🧅🧅🧅 🤣
It really is that easy!! Wow look at that!! Lol and Ben laughing 🤣🤣 this is fantastic and I adore you ☺🥰
Loved it 😃
It's also nice to have you both in a video again.
It's really entertaining and funny seeing you both together.
Maybe, if Ben will, you can make videos together from time to time??? I'm pretty sure, I'm not the only one who would love it 😁😆
Say him some lovely regards, and that we miss him 😊
This is fantastic. Also, in the US, many state universities will test samples for free. Pennsylvania state university does, I know that for sure. They’ll even test your plants to determine pests. All for free. So the fact that people don’t do this is just shady on their part. Thank you for doing this to show how easy it is.
Definitely! Any school that has a biology program especially one with a subsection of botany would be able to help either test or guide you into getting a good test. My friend uses Penn state for her plant business
@@knitwitchpgh yeah! That’s awesome. I took some of their extension courses and they tell you to please send! It’s really great!!
Yaaaassssss!!! We love a sassy Kaylee! I had absolutely no idea you could do these tests at home, so thank you for teaching me something new!
Uhhhh those leaf emoji’s!!! 🤩💚💚💚
Same, emojis where!
@@nokibin9676 you can get them by joining Kaylee's YT membership 🙂
I love their relationship. I feel like it’s similar to me and my besties making stupid jokes and laughing at them for hours after the joke is over 😁
Yessss. The sassy attitude was PERFECT. Like I’m sooo over these old guys who think they can just try and run the female growers down. Like do better!!!
Loved the science behind this, I love that we have the ability to test plants at home now. It really is THAT easy. Ffs.
Badass bitch energy here. And hi Ben! Nice to see you around haha
As both a molecular biologist and a Philodendron nerd, I appreciate this video. To be certain this has worked however, you would ideally also apply to a plant with a known virus (positive control) and a plant known not to have any virus (Negative control). That way you would be certain that the assay worked.
So you would need to store a similar or the same virus for future testing? How would you safely store such a thing?
I am livingggg for the shade in this video
Also so good to see Ben!!!!
We love a sassy Kaylee! Super interesting though, I had no idea you could get these tests to do at home!!
Lolllll when you presented the lip liner, I felt this in every cell 😂
I had to watch again! Such a happy plant, another new leaf coming🤩😍. Love cheeky Kaylee and Ben!💖
As a microbiologist, I absolutely love your plant cell lysis protocol. 😍🤣
Honestly I really like the variegation on the plowmanii. It looks like it was painted with watercolors 🥰
The sass from this video made my day and is definitely my vibe lol!! I love when we get informative and sassy Kaylee. Good to know it wasn't any of those viruses!
Such an interesting video, thank you for showing the process. As always, I love seeing both of you on camera together. Always provides quite a bit of entertainment 😂
Very interesting. Also good to see Ben again. Thanks for taking us through the process. It's actually quite easy isn't it?
Lmaoooo you are cracking me up!!! Perfect way to kick off my birthday weekend! Love you Kaylee❤️❤️❤️❤️
I didn't think I could love a video anymore than the react one... I was wrong. Your content is amazing at the moment. I adore the couldn't give a fuck, sassy and confident attitude you have going on! You shouldn't be getting the hate and drama you are doing but I love how you have dealt with this.
I also loved seeing Ben again, get him on more 😊
This was awesome and mildly hilarious. 😅 I hope they watch this a fuuuume.
Oh they will. They fume at me breathing do they not 🤣
Ha ha! Love the grin at the beginning and the giggle you and Ben had at the end. ❤❤❤
And she does it again!!
Good for you my girl!!
HAHAHAH. I love the shade at the beginning of the video tbh. But I love how you went in deep to figure out if it actually is a virus or not. Adore your videos and knowledge! Keep doing you! I love how unapologetically yourself you are and it translates so well into your videos. 💚🪴
Love this. Hopefully lessons were learnt 😁
At least you follow through with people asking.
This was super interesting 😍
I love seeing Kaylee’s personality come out more and more. Right down to the music in the part awaiting the test. ❤️
I really enjoyed this video! It’s good to see you smiling 😊
When NYX gets free advertisement by a Plant Icon . CLASSIC. 😜
So shady... I dig it 😂❤️
Also thanks for the PSA that we can check our plants! I don't have anything super rare but certainly uncommon enough to have a difficult time to replace them if a virus were to spread.
I loved this video. It was really interesting and also great to see Ben again 😊
One of my favorite videos Kaylee!!!
Great video, interesting, informative and fun. You two together are entertaining and funny, you make me laugh. Love the end music.
The song choice at the end was spot on 😂❤
What a sassy queen 👏👏👏 loved this video and it's probably my favourite video of yours 😂😂
Love this! I didn't know you could test at home. As always great content and the shade is 🔥.
I think you and Ben giggling back and forth was my favorite part 😂
This was so cool to see. Up until now I didn't realize you could test for viruses at home.
I really liked this video, especially because you and Ben seemed to have fun while making this video
HA! Suck on that plant juice,Haters! Now they can STFU and purchase some tests instead of ragging on you!👍🤩😍. Great job Kaylee and Ben!!🎉🎉💓💓
This was awesome, and also - yay! Ben is in a video! I missed his adorable little face. 😁
You are the funniest shadiest plant person Ever and I'm totally here for it!! Stay on they neck sis!! 😂
this is such a laugh!! I loved it! Thank you and Ben!
You and Ben are just suuch a vibe best duo ever
Awesome video! And that song at the end:))))))) love it
The shade!🤣 lovesss it! I mean you are right if you are unsure you should test it. It just that easy
CLOSING MUSIC CHOICE ON POINT 😂
🙌🏻 yes!!! Love it! Such a finger! Point made! Thnx you!
What an excellent clap back 👏 to the haters. Love your vids Kaylee Ellen. Keep it up.
Love a girl who can practice what she preaches. 😁. Eat it haters
Please tell Ben that we love him too! He is cool, he is funny and he does great work!
Informative and interesting with a hint of shade. I love it 🤣
Effing yes I loved this video, you definitely solved a major plant problem I was having.
Love this!!! Thank you!
Great info
How freaking cool, I had no idea that they had at home tests available! I actually work for the University of Florida and I know we’re one of the top places in the US to send plants to test for mosaic (and others), but it’s $100+ to test a sample. Might have to look into these because I suspect I have a sodiroi with mosaic 😅 gorgeous plant and I’m glad it’s healthy!
OMG so good to know there are kits! So many Fing people in plant groups think everything is mosaic!
LOVED IT!!! You need to find a plant microphone, so you can do “mic drops” at the end of your video for all the haters 😂
Thank you Kaylee! Loved this video! I have some orchids that went through the heat dome event at my house, where it reached 118F (47.7C) . I'm not sure if they are damaged by the extreme heat, or if they have a virus. I'll be looking into some test kits.
I wanted to comment something and then I saw laugh on 12:25. That laugh tells more then words!
Hey Kaylee, thanks for posting this! If you do this again at some point and you wanted to be even more careful, you can always do it in the laminar flow hood that you used for your cell culture video to limit any airborne contaminants. This looks like a type of ELISA kit, that works in almost the exact same way as a pregnancy test. Congrats on the not pregnant plant!
Good stuff, alway fun to see ben as well!
We love to see Ben on the channel! 👏👏
Bwahahaha that closing song 🤣
I can tell this was a fun video for you, and that's the way to go. It is however also good information to have, and it was interesting to see how the test is done.
Also what's up with that streaky green deliciosa leaf behind you at the end of your video? I wanna hear more about that one, it's quite pretty. 😀
I love the low key shade at the end 😂😂😂😂👌🏻
YES 👏 YOU👏 TELL 👏 THEM 👏 GIRL 👏
Well, I guess it made you look Right!! You have experience, this is what you do! I'm positive if it was a virus, You would know.. Loved this video!! Such a perfect response to a troll! 💚
Love it! 😍😊
Love the Sass lol! Her face was like come at me haters! Lol
Love the Ben content in this video! You guys are hilarious to watch
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KAYLEEEEEEEEEE I F'INF LOVE YOU! i am crying i am laughing so hard! BRILLIANT! thank you :) I needed this today!!! Best x
This made me 😈🤣😈🤣😈🤣😈 laugh just the same way hahaha I loved this!!!! That’s so awesome to be able to test at home!!!!
It's neat that we can test at home like this. Seems a little silly for others to make such a fuss when it's such a simple process. Gotta love that this video throws more shade than NYX! 😄
Same company manufactures test kits for Hosta virus X, nice to see they have almost everything covered!
Hi Kaylee, really enjoyed this one!! If the test had been positive, how would you have proceeded from there? I'd like to get some of those tests, but would also like to know what my options would be as a hobbyist if a test came back positive. Thanks again for such great content!!
Same!
If the test is positive that plant goes in the garbage. 😍
Burn it, don't compost it
@@LostInThisGardenofLife if it's going in the garbage, cut it up and completely destroy it first. Or it goes in the fire. I see posts on reddit constantly that start with "LOOK WHAT I FOUND IN THE GARBAGE!!"
@@CarbonKevin omg that’s insane. 😭🤣
Loveee this vid
Wow, I never knew you could do testing for viruses by yourself! At first when you said lateral flow I literally thought you were testing the plowmanii for COVID-19!
Shhhh covid will hear you and get ideas
Lessons were learned
Oh Damn girl! U just destroyed Christmas 4 the Haters! 🤣 I love it & I love the way u own ur shit! If it was viral, then everyone would know & that was good with u but it isn't viral & its still good! Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, Kaylee & Ben!💞
YYYYYAAAAASSSSS KAYLEE SHUT THE HATERS DOWN🖤
Love love love this! Including the comment section
Thank you to you 2 for this very informative vidéo. Now I'm asking me if some Monstra variegata are virus-free. It would be very interesting to check !
Woah cool 🤓 hi Ben!
Hi, can You tell me what Lights do You use,? This Plantsystem look so good :)
Lol. Liked. But it would be interesting to test the mojito now!
That outro choone, you’re wicked and I love it 😘
I picked that theme song specially 🤣 🥰
@@KayleeEllenOfficial 🤣 I figured! Bonus that it’s also a great tune 👌 Fierce 🔥
This vid won't go viral, no fault of your own! Lol Just wondering, how do you know what to test for, pest, bacteria, fungi, etc if you don't know what the issue is? I would LOVE to see how to vids series explaining how to treat sick plants! Thank you for all you have done thus far!
Something you said when talking about the "mint" varieties is happening here and is twisting the leaf. I'm sure you were worried about the deformities but I seem to remember reading or hearing that because of the lacking chlorophyll in the white parts they don't grow as much or as well so cause this twisting in a lot of Variegated plants. Tyler Thrasher had it happen very obviously with one of his creations
"That's the shade I suggest!" 🤣🤣🤣
"Don't go mental" 😂😂
This is AMAZING!!
Omg you are amazing! 👌 🤣
I love the look on your face at the end while you humble-bragged. Lmao
What if I don't have a matte lip liner? What's a good alternative?
Will you ever run some plants on a aquaponics (fishtank) system?... It works too good... Can't keep my plants for one year before they grow against the ceiling 🤯
It's the giggling 🤭 🤟
I had to relike this video for that nose flare 🤣🤣🤣🙏
Was so excited by this but then clicked on the link and we can’t buy it in the uk 🥺 (still loved the video) x
