Loved that you brought up asking about food allergies if reusing kitchen cardboard. My son is allergic to eggs. So we have to keep all egg and egg product away from him.
Omg i saw the title of this video and THANK YOU HARLI!! I’ve literally been wanting to ship plants for a year now but i had no idea how to do it the right way
Hey Harli, thanks again for starting your fb group , & for mentioning it . A thing I wish people who ship in soil would do is NOT water a few days before shipping, especially super dense non chunky (crap) soil. I have gotten too many plants with root rot and /or stem rot because the plants were watered before shipping. And to those that use plastic, or that weird styrofoam plastic hybrid wrap, STOP IT please.
I just watched your first packaging video. I like both versions. The first one let’s me know I can start with anything and make improvements along the way
This is so good! Thank you! I’m going to practice shipping a plant (literally to someone the next town over) and use this method! Just seems so fool proof and simple to apply. Thanks for the inspo and boost of shipping confidence!
I was super impressed when I got my order from "The Foliage Fix" 🎁 packed to perfection! My kiddos even got to help pull plants out and almost everything got to be added to the browns for compost
Thank you so much for this, I have a snake plant that was a division from my original plant I want to give to my sister, now I feel comfortable shipping it rather than buying one on line and shipping it!
WELL IF THIS ISNT PERFECT TIMING! I have a new plant friend that I'm going to be trading plants with soon, and I was about to write out directions. But why do that when you have a fantastic video already? Thank you so so much Harli, for all of your hard work and fantastic content as always! 💚
giiiiirl I am moving to another state so I just watched your older vid on this yesterday and then you put this out today. think we are on the same wavelength lol
Greetings, I just wanted to pass along that Brags Apple cider vinegar Has markedly helped my skin condition. Also, I’ve been using a turmeric enhanced soap.
I got my monstera albo CUTTING in mail today and he had it wrapped and tapped to the bottom of box with no extra paper bunched up to keep it from banging around in the box. I I thought that was genius! No extra money for paper to fill empty space
I will be moving soon, do you have a video on how to pack up plants safely? I have very large tall plants that I'm scared I'm going to break the stems etc. what type of box should I use, I'm thinking maybe a wardrobe box? Are there any specific plant boxes for moving? Love your video
I forked out on a variegated adansonii. It came wrapped in wet kitchen roll, not just the roots, the WHOLE plant! Foliage and all. The wet kitchen roll was then put in a plastic bag and sealed. That was then placed in DIRTY tupperware. Needless to say, it arrived completely rotten, and the seller refused to admit there was anything wrong with the way they had packaged it 🙃
Plain white posterboard works well as an alternative to the X-board and you can buy it at almost any store. I also use polyfill around the leaves and wrap in tissue paper several times to ship cuttings not in a cup and it's worked very well.
I sell a lot of cuttings on mercari and always wrap the roots/aerial roots in sphag, wrap that in a wet paper towel and secure it with press n seal then use polyfill in the box for cushion. Press n seal is such a necessity for me for shipping. One roll lasts forever, too! I’d use more newspaper instead of polyfill but the sound of cardboard/newspaper literally makes me gag and gives me chills. It’s so weird and my family thinks im crazy. Lol
Ahhh haha im the same, just seen this video and was reading your comment and had to comment. Im the same, the sound of cardboard and newspaper makes me cringe and gag lol.
How rude would this be to forward this to eBay seller? I've had some messes show up. But some cuttings look like they have just been left on the side while the listing counted down. Great vid
I’m trying to start an Etsy shop, but it won’t let me add my 100% correct banking information for the initial set up, so I can’t actually get it up and running yet. I have all my supplies on the way, but it won’t be happening unless Etsy can figure out the issue :/ I’m not sure if Shopify would be better, or some other platform, but I’m not tech savvy at all so it’s a struggle for sure 😔 **edited for spelling**
Truthfully I’ve had not great experiences with Etsy! I use Shopify now & have been much happier with my experience. Although, I do think Etsy is great for someone just starting out that needs help getting traffic to their shop
I have been watching your channel since the beginning and I would love to buy a plant from you. How do I do that…email, plant store name???? Thanks for all you do!!
My Burtoniae! :) She was ready for her closeup.
This was PERFECT timing. I have so many rooted plant cuttings and have been wanting to sell, but wasn’t sure how to ship. Thanks for making this!
Me too thanks Harli 😊
Literally same !!!
Same here!!
You have a knack for TV. Great video!! Good info!
Harli, you're the best thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and helping others 💚

Good info here Barbie T. I’ll make sure to take this good advice when I shop from now on.

I've been shipping plants for years and just learned a new way of shipping with the X-board cardboard paper. Great idea! Thx!
Thank you so much for this, I have a snake plant that was a division from my original plant I want to give to my sister, now I feel comfortable shipping it rather than buying one on line and shipping it!
Awesome info Harli! Very useful tips! I just love how creative and efficient you are!

Great packaging Harli,👍
💚☘️🌱🌵
I’ve never heard you say the name of your shop you sell from. I’m not on FB if that’s where It All Happens!🥰😇😎
Great video! Short and sweet the way I like it :)

Great video, I going to sell Jade plants on Etsy. This was very helpful!
I save tissue paper from gifts to use for cushioning inside the boxes!
I´m gonna share this video in my facebook group 😊
Many thanks, Chuck
Love your ideas.
I use the post office boxes because if I use brown boxes, they measure and charge you, accordingly.
Ya can't win.
I love your videos! What is your light setup for taking pictures? I see you are using your phone to take pics, but wonder about the lighting?
I love your shirt in this video!
can you share the link where you roder the plastic cups to hold the substrate and plants ?
Good tips..thank you!
Very informative thanks so much!
if it's the summer do you ever worry about the temperature it gets in the trucks when shipping?
Thank you for this video, and I love the top! Have you ever shipped cacti/succulents? Would you change anything about the packaging for those?
Great! thank you for sharing
Whenever my dog destroys their bed or toys I clean and dry the filling and use that :))
Awesome thank you!!
thank you harli
Where do you get your boxes?
Any suggestions where to purchase an accurate scale but not for a ton of cash?
Ooo very helpful!
Do you have to label it on the box that it's a plant?
Hi harli, are you growing your plants in soil or mosses?
Do you put anything on the bottom of the cup to cover the drainage holes?
How rude would this be to forward this to eBay seller? I've had some messes show up. But some cuttings look like they have just been left on the side while the listing counted down.
