One of the RUclipsrs I watch keeps a jar of rocks, some the size of her fist. She uses then to prop up tipsy plants. Anchors down roots. Things like that.
I'm new to your channel and I'm really enjoying your content. I too have been looking for a Blue Oil Fern and I agree the prices are too high at this time. I'm very curious to see how the spore experiment comes out.
I just bought one of these on Etsy for $36. It’s currently in the mail. I’ve wanted one for over a year now but I definitely wasn’t paying hundreds. Of course I’m looking up how to propagate before I even get my hands on the plant. 😂
I just bought a blue oil fern for $30 at the home and garden show. It’s starting to send out spores which is what lead me to your video! Also I just got through a battle with flat mites. If you’re in the U.S. contact Evergreen Growers in OR. I used predatory mites to eat all of the flat mites which spread to all of my houseplants not just my Hoyas.
These spores did not grow but when I contacted the seller, they recommended I give them more light. They sent me some more spores for free so I am trying again 🤞 Good luck with yours!!
Those are the spores? There's barely anything in there? My blue oil fern dropped a crap ton of spores of 1 leaf, you could see a thin orange dust on the soil. Did they germinate?

I just looked up a blue oil fern on Etsy. A small plant in. 4 inch pot -$245. More than I’d ever spend.
Yes they’re quite expensive!!
Can’t wait to see how your spores progress! Give you credit for even trying 🙂✨💚
Thank you so much!

You can use azamax for flat mites. You I don’t need sulfer on your Hoyas.
You don’t use the Aroid mix with your anthuriums?
Update?

I know 🫣 they never did anything
It can take 2-3 years to make the spores in to plants you have long wait
I gave up waiting after a year!
Any update? lol
Nothing has sprouted yet 😳
what happened! update!
Nothing yet. The seller has sent me new spores…hopefully they sprout
Soil doesn’t have the nutrients that compost does.
Spores look dust
