What I REGRET about this Plant
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 21. 08. 2024
- Of course I have 1000 pots in every size EXCEPT for the one I need đ”âđ«
I never want to repot this plant again đ« BUT I can safely say that the yellowing and crumbly leaves have stopped now that itâs in a slightly roomier pot with fresh soil designed for succulents. The chair trick also worked đ€ and I wasnât left with a tangled hot mess.

I always check on my plants before bed.
I NEVER LEARN.
Canât learn wonât learn đ
Guilty as charged, Iâm afraid! Whyyy are we like this when we fully know better, refuse to learn from it continuously happening aaaaand averse to making any changes that could help avoid it from continuing to happen? đ đ€Łđ đ I am
The biggest liar to myself about my ability to only buy one plant as I am to stopping after checking just one plant, and I ran out of room years ago much like everyone else on plant tok did too
Same!!
@@ohtheplacesyoullgrow wait what happened to the plant?
Saaaame
honestly I feel so productive at midnight to do plant chores than the actual work I should be doing, lol
This is SOOOO me haha
Yes!! I feel everyone is out of my way and itâs just midnight plant therapy with me and my babies. lol
Midnight kimchi đđ
Midnight re-potting party, music and snacks>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
soil library??? a library of pots???? you're living my dream for sure đđđ
Iâm very proud of those two things lol.
A different kind of pain is When the nursery pot doesnât fit the decorative pot
You understaaaaand
GOD YES đ©đđ€Ł
Checking the plants at night is like checking on your kids... making sure everything is OK! đ
This is the PERFECT analogy!!!! Omg. I do always sneak in and stare at my kids in the dark đđđ
The end of every plant project is the start of three more every time.
Never a statement rang more true than this
Every time. Especially when growing veggies, too, imo. I have potted spring onions that I grow and propagate, and I can't ever stop myself when I go out and touch a couple and see how they're doing. 5 hours later I'm still outside, drinking a coffee with dirt everywhere on me, watching yt and thinking of more things I can keep doing since I took care of the onions, blackberries, chickens, weeding my plant pots, experimenting with different soils, and collecting branches to make lattice for my next flowering vines I get
Yes!!
@@lizamay722 such an amazing life right there.
I swear I found 4 plants that needed to be repotted last night, and it was at 8:30. I told myself I should be finished by 9:30⊠4 hours later at 12:15 am I was still trying to find where to fit them at because the pit were bigger so I needed more room. I donât go to bed until 3:30 am because I was trying to find the best places to put them
So essentially, you understand me to my core.
Why do I always think repotting my plants is going to be a quick task but ends up taking hours đ
Why is this so relatable? I have little kids. It's either midnight repotting or chaos repotting đ
And usually itâs both at the same time!
me every time i check on my flytraps
i regret nothing
Hahaha
When it's root bound don't forget to cut into it at each third so that the roots dont just keep spiraling into the center
Great tip thank you
But if it's already root bound, it's fine to wait one more day........ But as a helicopter plant mom myself, I understand... Once it's out, might as well do it đ
Haha and one thing leads to another and leads to another
Girl I'm over here planting seeds with my phone light after dinner đ I'm addicted
HAHAHAHAHA I love it
This similar to what happens when I start a new crochet or knitting project right before I go to bed.
That reminded me of how in 8th grade, I took a needle point class and my mom asked me why I signed up for such a pointless elective and then sheâd finish my projects overnightđ«
Thank you for inspiring me to call my soil *soil library *
HAHAHA I love it
Yes! Favorite new term. Soil library. Sounds so sophisticated
Please do longer videos! I love your enthusiasm and i recently am a
Brand new plant mom and would love beginner videos such as um humidifiers, types of soil, the leca balls, best pots. Also ill be going to ikea now to check on pots!! đ Please consider
I am preparing for long form content soon đ„°
This is adhd in a nutshell. Never learning from your mistakes lmao
Literally the entire internet has diagnosed me with adult ADHD đ
"burning the midnight oil" I swear that's when inspiration hits. It's like your mind and body calms itself to the point you're relaxed enough to tackle your hobby problems
You totally get it
It's awesome how you can make something so boring (to non-plant lovers) sound so funny and suspenseful.
Iâm so glad you enjoy it Lorie! đ«¶
Well, itâs only 9:28pm here in southwest Arkansas. I got home from an impromptu trip to Loweâs and came back with a few rescues. I just got out my potting suppliesâŠđŹ
Hahah soâŠ.youâll be done around 3am too đ
Thanks for showing how and what to do with this plant. The leaves are shrinking as they trail down.
Ahhh that can also happen from too much light. Mine are like that too. Theyâre darker pink and getting tiny so I could pull it back from the light a bit.
Dang, you didnât have to call me out so hard!! đ đ€Łđ đ€Ł
lol are we the same person?
@@ohtheplacesyoullgrow certainly we were cut from the same planty cloth, at a minimum!
Bro this is so relatable
đ
The see you at midnight is too relatable đ Starting at 10PM and being asked to make noise at 1.30 AM ( oops )
HAHAHAH it happens TOO often
Ohhhh no this is so relatable đ I also always make the mistake of checking them before another project (like writing a paper) and then I just do plant stuff instead đ„Č
It happens TOO often haha
Watching this after midnight after a midnight repotting bingeâŠ.
LOL that is meta
Midnight repotting party is a whole mood
đyou get it
This has been me all week. Decided to check a couple plants and slowly figuring out they all are ready to be repotted.. after work shenanigans
Hahaa it takes forever
đso happy to see someone also have a midnight repotting partyđ
See you then!
This is 100% something Iâd doâŠ..
And I donât even have plants just the late night start something by accident and end up staying up all night
HATE IT!!!
Every time!
EXCELLENT real life video
Thank you!
I'm the same way with my plants, I have a bunch of citrus trees that were brought inside for the winter that needed repotting last summer, it took me what felt like forever to get the proper soil mixture, then they got a really bad infestation of Spider Mites, I only recently got the Mites dealt with and I have them outside too, now to get around to repotting them, all I have left is to find deep enough pots for them lol
Such a struggle!
Same here, just finished propagation, itâs nearly 11pm but my fertilizer are still out, will put fertilizer, water plant then sleep - if I donât find any bugs or yellow leaves đ
May you have no unexpected surprises!
âsee you at midnightâ LMAOO
â ïž
Yup, I mean anything I repot will take at least a half hour (I practice bonsai) but still I donât look at my plants after sundown, for this reason!!
Hahaha you have more self control than I do
âSee you at midnightâ
âWaaweweweweeweeaewđčâ
đ
I'm a beginner at owning plants but YES everytime I check my plants at night just to find out their slowly dying even tho I pay very close attention
(Btw if anyone has any tips, tricks, or advice that would be helpful)
Oh no! The three things that I always ask myself when a plant is struggling are 1. Is it getting enough light 2. Am I watering properly (most houseplants need to dry out before watering again) 3. Are there pests
@@ohtheplacesyoullgrow Thank you so much! I'll make sure to pay attention to those things! :DD
đŻ my family will get so annoyed by my midnight planting,propagating, watering etc! I CANNOT STOP đ
Canât stop wonât stop đđ»
Same! Whhhhhy do we act like mom's checking on their children for the night with this?
Thatâs EXACTLY what it is! đ
Use fabric pots and you wonât have to worry about your plants becoming root bound.
Very true!
OMG! Why is this the first Iâve heard of this. Do you have links or suggestions to good fabric pots?
It's a rabbit hole looking at your plants! I was admiring my alocasias and thought I saw some spider mite webbing, cut to washing ALL of my plants in the shower and spraying them all with miticide lol
Oh man I feel this
Awesome plants!
Thank you!
"But because I never learn my lesson, see you at midnight â ïž" THAT KILLED ME BECAUSE I DIDNT KNOW EVERYONE DID THIS I FEEL SO MUCH LESS GUILTY EVEN THOUGH IT DOESNT JUSTIFY MY POOR WATERING HABITS đđ
đđđ
Very well done.
Thank you!
Hahah omg this is my sport. Repotting plants at 11 PM đ€Ł
Thatâs earlier than me đ« đ
"5 minutes tops" so true
đ
Haha with my busy schedule I usually end up being awake all night gardening
Same!
Last night I spent 6 hours completely emptying and then replanting, substrating and hardscaping my aquarium because I thought it would only take 1 hour. I went to bed at 4am and got 5 hours sleep max.
Would've liked to have been recommended this a few days ago... at least the tank looks great!
Haha worth it hopefully
So so many times I find myself doing this at the most random worst timesđ
And it always takes 10x longer than you expect đ
I did this Friday night for an Echeveria, and I finished three hours later because I kept on checking all of them.
I feel your pain
That's every project, especially if they don't come with a booklet with instructions
Haha truth
Literally me every single repotting sesh
Hahaha right!
The sheep sound at the end đ
đ
Their wasn't a massive root bowl, I think there was some sort of problem with soil.
Always add some sort of anti fungal powder during repot.
đ„°
Agree just wait until morning so u can sleep unless u canât stop thinking about it then deal with the plant
Haha I can never sleep once Iâve seen what cannot be unseen
Didn't you guys used to liked when your mom or dad walked into your room to give you one last "good night check". For plants parents is the same, but our human parents didn't take us off bed at 3AM to try on you the clothes to the next weekđđđ
This is such a hilarious analogy and so perfect đ€
Ur not alone for some reason I always find myself doing maintenance on my tanks and enclosures at like 1am
HAHAHHA exactly!
Doing things at midnight or later is just more tempting and fun somehow đ
Doesnât feel right in the day lol
Omg the goat at the end đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
đ
i'm literally upsizing my pothos as i'm watching this. & it's midnightđ
Trailing plants are a CHORE haha
Boss why are you so tired? Me, I was checking on my plants at midnight đ .
Haha same!
that things roots were gonna EXPLODE
They were nuts!
Me when I come home at midnight still buzzed from the bar
Lol
I just chopped my rubber tree in half before bed đ
LOL Godspeed my friend.
That goat noise nearly made me soil my pants
Hope you didnât đ
You just reminded me to water my plant
đŠ
@@ohtheplacesyoullgrow update: my baby avo tree is happy and growing taller by the dayâšđ„° Thank you for the reminder
Omg I just did this. I woke up at 4 in the morning and decided to check my plants.
Spent 4 hours reporting them all and my sister was like "why didn't you just wait till the afternoon"
IDK OK
HAHAHHA
I actually prefer to just go over my plants at night cause during the day itâs very loud and busy in my house⊠at night I get to take my time and be gentle plus stress free. Iâm sure my plants prefer it when I give them care during a time I feel good so they can feel good too.
This is the exact reason I do my chores at night :)
Never do anything before bed
Procrastination _is_ my life
â
I have a genuine question regarding repotting, like when does it end? Do we just repot into a larger pot over and over again?
Hahaha thatâs a great question. It doesnât end. Unless you divide the plant into multiple pieces to then plant into smaller pots, itâs just part of the process of raising plants.
OK. I 100% just went and invested in a bunch of that sol soils mix. I couldn't stand looking at those bags one more time until I had some of my own. Plus, I feel like my new thai constellation babies will love it. So thank u! For secretly convincing me to buyđ
LOLOL you are hilarious! Cheers to your new soil library! I do love this mix. Just make sure itâs thoroughly dry before watering again. Because itâs so chunky, itâs kinda hard to tell just from just the surface if itâs dry or not. I always go by weight and stick my finger waaaaay in to make sure itâs all dry before watering my plants again. ESP for the Thai con! đ«¶
@@ohtheplacesyoullgrow yessss! Thank u!!!! I've always made my own mix but I'm just never happy with it. Probably the sub par ingredients I had available at the time. But this looks awesome and I will definitely keep an eye on the watering bit. Thank u so muchđ„°
That's the last thing I do before going to bed... check my plants! I don't get much sleep!đđ€Ș
Same same saaaame
Ya'll transplant into such tiny containers. Give those plant roots some space! They need more than 1/2 inch of new space.
There was more than enough space for roots to grow down.
Don't you remember what the guy from Gremlins said? "No matter how much they beg, no matter how much they cry, no matter how much they say they are hungry, never, NEVER feed them after midnight!"
LOLOLOLOL
Where's your humidity dome/base from? Plastic or glass?
Glass! From IKEA
I love plants my favorite is cactiâ€đ”

Story of my life. Always before bed.
Every time never learn đ
I have a small string of turtles and haven't seen much growth from him. I still have hope :')
My turtles didnât grow much either until I put it directly under a grow light and it exploded with growth!
I almost always remember the propagations after Iâve repotted đ„Č
I feel seen. I ALWAYS end up repotting, watering, etc in the middle of the night. Sigh. I'll never learn.
Nope never đ« đ
What is the name of this plant? It looks beautiful
Variegated string of hearts
Ok now I donât feel so alone doing the same thing đ
đ
What is that plant? It looks perfect for something I have in mind
Variegated string of hearts
Same. I need to learn to ignore my plants before bed! Why are we like this??
Itâs what happens when youâre a parent đ of plants or humans! Like how I check on my kids before I go to bed
đ lol, no lies detected!100% correct. I will never learn!
Nope never đ
That is probably the coolest couch(?) I have ever seen! Where is it from? Also, I always make the plants before bed mistake đ€Šââïž
Are you referring to the floral modular thing?
@@ohtheplacesyoullgrow Yeah! It is so cool!
Ahhh itâs called a Nugget!
@@ohtheplacesyoullgrow Thanks! I love your channel by the way!
Thank yoooou
I just did this with my Sebu Blue. I pulled it out and checked the roots (i had a feeling it was rootbound) about 11:30, thinking if its rootbound ill tend to its first thing in the morning. It was way more rootbound than i thought. Its now 2AM. đđđđ
Hahaha so the exact same situation đ«
I always have this problemđ
Happens too often
Love it!đđ€Łâșïž
Thank you!
you should give a bath to your pots before trying to get the plant out, and it's also a better way to water plants in general : put them all in the sink and let them soak with water to half the high of the pots, when the top soil is humid take them out. with decent soil you can do this every 10days and not worry in between
đ
What brands of soil do you buy? Post the link please?!!
Itâs in my videoâs description with a discount code :)
I wish I could find one of those plants!
Theyâre quite common now
I also check them before bed, but I don't start repotting anything. I tell myself that maybe they're trying to fall asleep and I shouldn't wake them up. Imagine having to move houses at night with no warning XD or waking up the next day in a different house
Lol very funny analogy!
Lol I'm so glad it's not just meeeeee.....
Nope! Weâre in good company đ
Last night I woke up at 3:00 am because I had a dream that my aloe plant was dying. I wanted to go check on it, but it was 3 am and I didnât want to wake my family. So I spent 2 hours researching how to save aloe Vera from dying. As soon as the sun came up I went and checked on it. It was fine. I lost a lot of sleep that night.
HAHAHAHHAA omg
@@ohtheplacesyoullgrow omg hi thank so much for replying to my comment â€ïžđ
I dont know why. But a hour ago I decided to wake uo at 2Am and I cared for my 47 Plants. I dont know what my head was thinking, but i was amazing. I have a "Drachenbaum" (german) anf he have some brown spots. I cutted them, and I have some "Buntnessel" and i cutted them and did the "copy and paste" thing :D and some Other Stuff. But its very great plant in this video ^^
All the best plant stuff happens after hours đ
i will just cut the roots and trim the plant to keep it in the samw pot.
I should have done that haha
Is it bad that I donât use a plastic pot inside my pottery thingies, I just toss the dirt and plant in there? I make sure not to overwater since it canât drain fully, but I do keep rocks at the bottom which creates a place for at least some drain
I always try to plastic nursery pots with drainage (and if I donât, use a planter only with drainage) so I can with 100% certainly only water when the soil is dry. The rocks actually donât provide drainage. Itâs a misconception. Instead it only raises the water level keeping the soil constantly moist. While some can grow plants fine like this, I personally would be afraid of root rot so I avoid if I can.
Midnight plant maintenance is my melatonin!
Relatable đ
Worst plant to mess with!
my plant is dying but right underneath where the strings are they are drying up and I don't know why. I'm afraid it got too much sun. How often do you fertilize it?
I fertilize every watering with this: www.amazon.com/dp/B07CZMS3D8?linkCode=ssc&tag=onamzohthepla-20&creativeASIN=B07CZMS3D8&asc_item-id=amzn1.ideas.2BHGB8LO4IUVC&ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d_asin
You can check the roots for your plant to examine what's going on.
