Is Expired Medium Killing Your Plants?
I picked up some new plants thanks to my local Buy Nothing group that are in need of some TLC. The first thing I noticed was they were in need of repotting and I thought this would be a great time to talk about how medium can expire and if you're not careful could actually kill your houseplants! Thanks for watching.

    Mine has so many new leaves and growth but the edges of the more mature leaves has these infuriating light brown (tan color) edges and it doesn't take long for the others to do the same, it drives me crazy and I threaten to throw it out weekly. But it it's one of the prettiest plants I've ever brought home and hate to give up on it. It spends most of its days inside a tabletop greenhouse my daughter bought me from IKEA bc I've been a plant lover for as long as she's been alive (I'm 63) I call it ICU for plants and the white fusion is almost always in there. I wonder if it will ever get simpler to care for?? I have a few that are more difficult than others but none this difficult! It's a reminder of when I first started to have plants in my early 20s but nothing was EVER like this, even when I knew nothing about plants was it ever like this as far as I recall! Are these brownish edges common for anything impartcular?

    why would you use a organic fertilizer in a mineral substrate? Worm casting tee? I order to be successful long term, one should put a bid more thought into growing in semi or hydroponic. The fertilizer, ph and so many other factors are very important. This is the reason many people give up on it and talk bad about this system, when in fact they have done lots of mistakes or too little research on it. It is a great way to grow but it needs a bit of knowledge.

    I put a young monstera in my tank, and its growing well but they haven’t split yet. It’s been about a year. Do I just have to wait, or do I need to do something different? I’m also growing pothos and philodendron micans in my tanks, both are doing great.

    the peat, or really any substrate by the testing ive done over about 6 years so far, comes off the roots and they get squeaky clean white using a very quick supervised soak in peroxide and then meticulously scrubbing every single individual root with a soft bristled toothbrush that has the rubber side pieces that are supposed to help scrub your gums as you brush

  • @camelCased

    It might also depend on the thickness of the wick. The default wicks that come with the cheapest pots are definitely too thick for many plants. I've seen people successfully using very thin synthetic wicks (which can be DIY-made from old thin nylon socks) with begonias. To prevent roots from coming out, people put some synthetic fluffy or spongy stuff at the bottom of the pot.

    Nice video explaining it all! I only have one Hoya at this point (want to get more) and I have had it a couple of years. It seems like even though many tout the joys of Leca, is that really easier than soil? It just seems like a lot of work. My Hoya has been repotted one time and loves the soil and the key for me has been simply not overwatering it. Matter of fact out of all my houseplants overwatering would be the biggest killer besides if you miss an insect or say a spider mite attack as once they get going you may easily lose that plant if you don't catch it to treat it early.
