I just want to say thank you for your content, you are genuinely my new favorite CZcamsr. My favorite plant videos are simply watching day to day plant chores, repotting and chatting, and I LOVE that you create long videos! I can click one video and be content for whatever it is Iâm doing. I appreciate you!!!
Out of all the amazing planty youtubers đ€đŒIâMđ€đŒ your favourite?!? *passes away*
obituary: she passed peacefully and lived an ok life but her memory lives on in all of us
Thank you so much hailee đ„ș Iâm so happy youâre enjoying the videos! Even the long ones đ„”đ„”đ„”
Your YT name kept coming up on my âSuggestionsââŠ.then I heard your name on WILDFERNâs channelâŠ.had to check you out đđŸ Glad I found you lolâŠyouâre dopeâŠkeep taking care of yourselfâŠyouâre funny AF btw đ đ±đ±Condolences to your Fam re your Father in law đđŸâ€ïž
Hello Headless and Pudge! Appreciate how openly you talk about your crap because it's so relatable.
Girl⊠you donât have to explain yourself. Do your thing.. and youâre very good at it.!â€ïž
thank you for existing
My thoughts go out to you and your husband. I lost my mother two days before I had my first child. These things always happen at the worst worst times. He will be on the emotional roller coaster of the century for some time, but just be supportive and just be there and heâll forever appreciate that. My heart breaks for the both of you. Xoxo
I love that you have boundaries and stick to them! I think more creators would benefit from doing the same.
My condolences and prayers to you and your family đđœâ„ïž
Thank you areliz â„ïžâ„ïž
I love what you are doing with plants! Itâs encouraging and keeps me hopeful on what I can do with mine.
I understand the anxiety it happens to us all on different levels. Stay focused!
Hope you know how loved you are in the plant community. Sending you and your husband all of my good vibes. â€ïž Life can be so overwhelming and tough to get through. I have to force myself to remember all of the good things and the memories that make it all worth it when I start crawling back into that hole. I hope you do the same. Give Pudge a kiss for me!
I was super excited to see your beautiful face some more in this video. You do you, but it was nice to see your facial expressions and I feel like itâs extra special when you show your face because I know itâs hard for you.
With regards to influencers you explained yourself perfectly the first time. I hardly touch insta because it is so draining for me and messes with my mental health.
Iâm so sorry to hear about Vinces dad. I hope you and your family are doing ok.
â€ïž
Iâm so sorry for your loss. đđđ You are rocking out girl. The fact that you are head of schedule after having COVID and the family loss is really impressive. Keep doing you!
Hoping you and your husband are well soon! Thank you for sharing. đż
Thank you so much Peggy!
I will never understand people who don't want to hear people's musings on life or liken that to "tea" or "negativity." Do you really want to spend time with people or listen to creators who never explore the world existentially? Like, escapism has its limits and honestly, escapism can also be thinking about how to make life better both in the macro sense and in the micro sense. Anyway, all of this to say that I enjoy that you share your musings about what you are experiencing, thinking, and feeling.
Thank you. I needed this đ. I can relate to the headless. I think its brilliant.
Everyone complaining about not seeing your face is so confusing to me. Whatever you feel the most comfortable doing is cool and frankly I find it very relaxing that you do not show your face. It feels less about you selling yourself and more about you sharing your interests. I have a lot of anxiety and your videos are so relaxing to watch so I understand, if rarely fully appearing in your videos help you I am all for it!
So sorry for your loss. Love your videos. Canât wait for more
Im loving these lazy moss poles soooo muchđ„°đ Luv ya Charmaineđ
Iâm so happy you love them!! Canât wait to show you guys part 2 of the lazy pole tutorial. LOVE YOU BACK DANI!
Now 8m sad I didnât watch this sooner đ„ș sending my love to you and your family, it canât be easy losing a loved one especially when you both have been sick! I had Covid a few weeks ago and ugh not a fun time! Also keep being unapologetically you girl! Donât show your face unless youâre comfortable because the people who are here love you for you đ„° comfort is key! I love how real you are on your channel, I think the world needs more of that because social media paints things out to be perfect and we all know thatâs never how it is. Lots of love đ„°đ
May you be well soon! And God give you strength to come out of this blue funk!!
You are Special!
I offer my condolences to your husband and you!
Iâm so sorry for your loss. These past couple of years have been A LOT and I know right now can feel that itâs overwhelming, but just know that you have support from your followers!
Love your videos đ„°. I was so happy to see your face more then usual đ. You look great.
I absolutely love your channel. I suffer from social anxiety and I feel the exact same way you feel. I am self conscious about myself and I feel plants help me relax and relieve stress. Cleaning also does that for me too. If I was to make CZcams videos I would do them headless as well. So I absolutely understand why you make the videos you do. It's ashame you have to explain this to people. Mental illness happens and is out there. It sucks but we just have to deal with it and cope with it. Your channel is what you make it. If they don't like it oh well. Keep being you, keep being genuine & keep showing Pudge. (Sorry if I spelled that wrong) đ â€
âJust catching up on my Charmaine videos.
Sending my deepest sympathies to you and your family. Loss is a very painful and difficult journey. Sending thoughts of strength, comfort and peace amidst this diffuclt time đđŒ. Thank you also for your vulnerability, acknowledging itâs not easy to share our struggles. Hope the past few days have shown more promise and hope â€ïž.
P.S. Your plant room is goalssssâŠ.
I freaking love you and admire and am inspired by your willingness to show up however the F you want to.
Thank you for sharing
My condolences to you and your husband. Please take care of yourselves first. CZcams can wait
Another thing⊠you have made me feel so normal with being super self-conscious. At work I canât move up the âcorp ladderâ because I refuse to speak publicly unless iâm comfortable with the people in the room. Itâs so debilitating but Iâm ok with it. It allows me to do what I donât/canât do and Iâm ok with it. Iâm just glad Iâm not the only one that feels these things.
We love you too Charmaine. You give us a lot Iâm sorry that your father in law passed. I know itâs hard to deal with the estate of a relative. My mother passed 6 years ago and there was a lot of paperwork.
Hello planty friend first off Iâm so sorry for youâre husbands loss, itâs never easy saying goodbye. Thank goodness for all of our plants that bring us a little piece of joy in this chaotic world and stressful life. Stay strong for youâre husband. Sending you guys lots of hugs and good vibes đ„°đâïžđ
First off, I'm sorry you've had so much to deal with and process lately. As someone with both ADHD and depression, I can say this winter has been tough. I am done with gray skies and not seeing friends enough because of COVID. Your plant videos are a huge highlight, especially when you're willing to talk about the hard stuff and normalize what so many of us are going through. Thank you! Second, I love seeing your apartment and all the natural light you get. I literally have 6 plant lights in my living room, and another 2 in my kitchen. Loved the Hoya update--I'm just starting to appreciate them. Can't believe you got a serpens splash! So cute. I looked up the orchid spray, and it's basically just really, really weak fertilizer (.02-.02-.02). You could probably make your own by diluting regular fertilizer by like 100. Finally, Pudge is life.
Sorry for your loss. I had the virus the whole month of December. It flared my fibro so bad that two months later I am still in a high level of pain. That doesnât help with depression and anxiety
I hate that you keep having to explain yourself, but I also really appreciate you talking about your struggles with social anxiety and depression. I'm not going to get into my whole story, but these things can be absolutely crippling and its just nice to feel like we're not alone in dealing with these daily struggles AND to also see someone else who is putting themselves out there despite the voice in your head telling you you're not good enough. THANK YOUâș
It's truly ok to talk about it ,bad or good days....
I am only a couple minutes in to your video but I just wanna say my heart goes out to you and your husband/family... You have my sincerest condolences. â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž Also I really enjoy / love your videos and when you do these plant chore videos / chat with us I feel like I'm hanging and vibing with a friend... So thank you for being you đ„șđȘŽ
I pray for you both to recover soon ,thank you very much for letting other people know that vaccine is very important .
I have ADHD as well and itâs my biggest obstacle when filming. I have such a hard time getting my point across and I get frustrated and just stop⊠i know your struggle and it sucks!! But youâre doing a great job đ
hi! new here, happy to be here & thank u for sharing đ±â„ïž
all the best to you, your husband and relatives. thank you for sharing your life with us and for the weekend company
Thank you for the video! It really helps when you share how you feel, and what you are going through mentally. Makes me feel like I am not alone. âșïž Reminds me that we got this! â€ïž
Oh, goodness, my favourite headless youtuber, I am so sorry for your loss. Hopefully you are feeling better. My kiddo has an autoimmune disease and takes immunosuppressants so we have been carrying so much fear and anxiety for so long. Part of me wonders how it would feel if we all got it and were okay, It's tough.
Also, if all that people took from the last video was tea, they are missing out. I hope you follow your own guidance and don't stress too much about social media stuff and don't feel you need to justify your content on your channel, yanno? Sending much love.
So sorry for your loss. I feel so badly for your husband.
Iâm so sorry for your loss â€ïž glad you & your husband are on the mend. I struggle with social anxiety (anxiety & depression in general) & your channel reminds me Iâm not alone. Also, I love those grow lights! I use them in my cabinet but, wtf why are the connectors so damn short?! đ
Thank you so much Chantal! And Iâm so sorry you deal with mental health stuff too đ„ș you are definitely not alone!
Also someone in the comments mentioned that barrina sells longer connection cords! đź
Sorry for your loss.
You can buy longer connector cords on the barina website. I just bought some 48â ones and it was 3 cords for under 20$. They also have some on Amazon from random brands⊠but Iâm a little paranoid going with off brands for electrical related things.. đ„
Charmaine my deepest condolences to your husband and to you. I appreciate you more than you will ever know. I often have your videos playing on my long ride home after a long shift at work. Please take care of yourself, be gentle with yourself and indulge on a guilty pleasure if you can. Prayers for you and your family as you navigate depression and mourning.
Whew sis you bout to make me cryđ„ș I feel your sadness through the screen. As someone who goes through a similar thing I know what you mean. Sometimes its hard to keep going. But sometimes I just have to focus on doing one thing for myself, no matter how small can make myself feel better. You got this đ Sending virtual hugs, love, and prayers to you and your family đđŸ
Remember You are the light within the darkness.
Charmaine, I am so so sorry for what youâre going through emotionally. Although you donât know your followers Iâm positive we all support you from a far, send you positive vibes, and prayers. Youâre such a light and positive person - please take your time healing we will all still be here waiting and cheering you on should you need to take some time away. đ„°
Iâm sorry for your loss, I love your content, I love the length of your videos, I watch them while I repot all my plants and do plant chores. Itâs wonderful, donât change a thing â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž lots of love from Alberta
The lighting looks great đ
And also that red outfit is đ€đ„đ„
I am immunocompromised (Guillain-Barre) and I went for my neurologist appointment in late October and she stressed to me how much she did not want me to get Covid and I was unable to take the vaccine bc I got my Guillain-Barre from a vaccine while working as a nurse. And literally a week after that appointment (and I don't think I got it from there bc she made my appointment so early so I wouldn't be around anyone), I got Covid. I was so fatigued and it lasted for months. I was able to take the antibody infusion and it helped a little. I also ended up going through a rough patch with my fiancee and we split for a while. I was sick and depressed. It was awful. I hope both of you feel better soon and again am sorry for your loss.
I just love you ! I love your realness & want to punch people in their throat for saying anything nasty to you! Some peopleâs kids have no empathy for others & you are still so kind to them. Sorry you guys were sick & even more sorry about Vinceâs Dad! That is so sad! Life is just hard sometimes!! Iâm sending every good vibe I have to you & Vince & hope your next week is better than this last one!! Never stop making your videos just as they are! I live for your videos & now Aliceâs too! @youdontevengrowhere
about algae .... i use moss in my prop boxes and have a LOT of light which means algae appears after just a week. I sprayed some of the moss with a 50/50 hydro peroxide/water solution just to test something and low and behold...... 2 days later the algae was completely gone. so now I also use it on my no drainage pon plants, it's great!
Hey so the connecting cords. I extended them by cutting, stripping and twist joining them back. Covered the twist with electric tap and then tapped all three snuggly. Did this 3 years ago and they are still working :)
I donât trust myself with doing something like that because I am so accident prone đ someone mentioned that barrina sells longer cords! If for whatever reason I canât get my hands on them Iâll see if my handy sister in law will come help me DIY it like yours. Thank you for the suggestion!
yessss up just in time for my study grind time!!! thanks for the best background vids
Youâre most welcome!! And happy studying! đ€
I have so much repotting to do this next week before i start me new job. Im actually really nervous. Hundreds of plants and i will be working now. Glad i woke up to this, wake and bake time!
Ahh congrats on the new job!! đ€©đ€©đ€©
@@unplantparenthood aye thank you! Rolling that good good đ€Ș
I love all of your videos
I watched another lady on instagram spraying her Hoyas with orchid spray
Iâm very understanding of depression. I was going to sleep each night trying to figure out how to lull myself. Iâm great now but it took five years to get here. Your days ahead will get better. Just be patient
Loving this series fr
Your profile photo scared the crap out of me in the best way possible- but Iâm glad youâre enjoying it!! Theyâre actually really fun to make and edit!
â€â€â€â€â€
I absolutely love Pudge, my Grandparents had two pugs! So sorry to here about your husbands dad! Those losses are never easy!
Condolences to you both. You could try changing the frame rate of the video camera to eliminate the black lines. Its often caused when the shutter rate and the flicker rate of fluro tubes interfere with each other. If your AC power supply is 60Hz and your frame rate is 30 per second , try 25 frames per second...
Also...I'm not sure if you previously mentioned...sorry if you did, but I've watched all of your videos and can't recall you going into depth...Anyway.
How do I choose the right medium for the right plant in no drainage?
How do you pick ones for soil....and what ones go in lachuza? (Spelling..?)
Anyway. I'm super into the glass no drainage. Colorado is DRY and I water a lot...and also have chronic neck pain that kills me so an easier watering schedule would be HELPFUL
My condolences to your family đđŒâ€ïž my father in law passed away few months ago and I feel your pain watching your husband going thru such hard times. Especially during the pandemic, everything is just đ€Šđ»ââïž. And my husband and I got covid few weeks ago and I literally think that the vaccine saved us.
Just want you to know that your videos helped me so much when I was going thru stuffs and I really appreciate you and your contentsâ€ïž
Iâm so sorry for your loss as well hyejin đ„ș itâs been such a difficult two years. It seems like itâs just one thing after another and we all canât seem to catch a break. I honestly canât even imagine what it must be like to work in the medical field / be an essential worker- Iâve been fortunate enough to be able to hunker down in my apartment throughout this whole pandemic and Iâm just so thankful for the people who continue to show up and take care of us. I try and just cling to the good moments and remind myself that itâs been a hard time collectively for the entire world. Thank you for your love and support- it hasnât gone unnoticed! â„ïž
Sending so much love! We also had it back in January and it wasnât horrible but the side effects were weird. Honestly, go and get your iron checked! Iâm not sure if it was covid or what, but I never had low iron and now I do. Which I have been so fatigued, exhausted, weak and more pain. So, maybe something to check!
I hope that you start recuperating quickly and sending you so much healing light! â€ïž
Also, I know a few people that it effected their menstrual cycle too, and knowing you deal with endometriosis I hope that doesnât effect you. â€ïž
Thank you Cassie!! I actually am anemic, so naturally Iâm just always like tired and out of energy but ever since I got covid itâs been SO much worse. I get up around 8am everyday, and by 10am I feel like Iâve already had a full day and am just fighting off the urge to sleep. Itâs been awful. Plus these body aches that havenât gone away yet! Luckily itâs not as bad as before, but it keeps popping up here and there and Iâm like STAAAAHP đ« also what you mentioned about periods! Iâve had two cycles since having covid and both times my period has lasted a day- whereas my usual is around 3 days. I also have a friend who had her cycle change pretty drastically as well. This virus is crazy!
@@unplantparenthood This is happening to women after vaccination and have not had covid.
I got my first vax in may 2021 and the second in July 2021 and have had normal periods up until I got covid in January 2022
I have heard of womenâs cycle changing after the vaccine- although that hasnât been my personal experience
Thank you I'm experiencing same thing onsets of body pain since I got it and I'm immune compromised also anxiety is through roof..I totally understand you.. grateful for vaccines but did not get booster...my plants help me stay calm as possible đą and Im not social like to be home so I struggle alot between going out to therapist I'm so afraid with this virus..thanks for talking needed that.. blessings to you
I just loved this. As always. I want to move most of my pots to no drainage but I'm too scared hahaha. You give me motivation though! Just too scared of root rot đą đ
And I just noticed your hamsa tattoo, I got one too but on the left side đ€©đ
I truly believe that this hamsa tattooed on me has protected me from so many things in my life that could have had a much worse result for me- I feel so much comfort knowing it is on me all the time!
I feel the same â€ïž thinking about getting a bracelet too. Who doesnât need more of good vibes, positive energy and protection nowadays đ
Can you make a video on driving w adhd? Im trying to learn but i have this fear. I can park lol xD i have been binging yours and Alice's videos
đđčđ
I have a anthurium clarinervium and I think I'm watering it to much,,its in regular humidity,,it stays between 40%..How long should I go b4 watering again...wats a good tell tell sign anthurium has wen need watering??thank you for ur tyme,,or who ever answers me..lol
Not related to plants at all (though I love your channel for that first and foremost!), is that chair by your window a Herman Miller? I'm weighing my options buying a chair like that and yours looks really nice! I'm considering some of the replica companies. Ok, thanks for your content!!
Hi Amelia! Oh gosh an authentic Herman Miller would bankrupt me. Mine is a replica that I literally just bought on Facebook marketplace! Itâs from a company that sells MCM replicas that was clearing out their warehouse. I snagged it for $800!
condolences to you and your family.. hope you find strength in these difficult times⊠youâre one of my favorite plant CZcamsr coz you keep it real.. thanks for sharing your videos.. itâs enjoyable and very informative with regards to your plant journey..
Thank you so much Harvey â„ïž Iâm so happy youâre enjoying this little channel!
man im never gonna be able to afford a florida beauty
How did you get such a long hose for your sprayer. Iâve never seen one like that before.
notice your pot all no drainage , how often you water it , looks like light watering
What did you put in the jug that you added water to?
How do you remember the names of all your plants and props? Cause youâve got A LOT of plants.
Hey, I really like to know the name of the sprayer that is 10 litter??? Could I know the name of the brand??
Your bleaching problem can be caused by missing nutrients (maybe N) or a PH-issue... * try to send a few positive thoughts to you and your family * T.T
buh covid, the symptoms stay withyou
I have a CZcams channel called seed and shovel with a white Christmas cactus on it
Itâs great seeing your Beautiful Face
Yes Beautiful Face!!!
Letâs see more of You đ
It's always nice to hear someone praise the vaccine instead of the dumb stuff I more often see. My FIL almost died to covid last December; he's still on oxygen and will likely be for the rest of his life. I feel like my vaccine helped me from getting it the same time that my whole family did.. infinately appreciative of science! So sorry for your loss. It's never easy. Thankfully, you and your husband both made it through. I wish you all the health and healing đ
I lost a bunch of subs after this video went up, which I assume is because I talked highly of the vaccine, but Iâd do it again in a heartbeat. I am so so sorry to hear he will be on an oxygen machine for the rest of his life. đ I know too many people who have passed from covid, and itâs been such an infuriating time seeing how much misinformation and conspiracy crap I see on social media daily. Itâs so emotionally and mentally draining.
i have immune problsms to so im scared
Iâve been binge watching your videos, so much that every time your full face is on the screen I cover your face up ( now that Iâm reading this it sounds mean asf) ,
Who cares what a stranger driver driving by thinks. No never mind
What kind of mister is that
Itâs from Mossify!
I'm so sorry for all the bad stuff you've been going through, Charmaine. I pray for you, your husband, and your families. †Depression is such a horrible sickness. I don't know about your family, but with mine, since we're Filipino, having depression and anxiety is so taboo. I can't even explain it. đ If you need more friends, I'm here. You can message me on instagram (same username). I pray that everything gets better for you. â€â€â€
BTW, I asked this before, but where did you get those tall pots, not the ones for the hoya I meant the same as the square pot that you used for the first plant you repotted.
Love your videos. Can you tell me where you purchase your continuous spray bottle?
