All I’m hearing is that I now need to get 10,000 new plants for my house……… where’s the downside??
No downside 😁
Plants lift your mood in general and probably make people feel like the air around them is less polluted.
Here in the US many public buildings are air tight and some modern homes are built with windows that can't be opened. The health problems from uncirculated air are acknowledged.
Not sure this is true. My sister grows herbs vegetables and fruit on her balcony outside and none of them were growing well. She put a snake plant on her balcony and she begin to notice her strawberry plant begin to thrive. Then she moved it to her tomato plant and the same thing happened. The snake plant made every plant it was near thrive. And her balcony is on a busy intersection with lots of traffic. So NASA was on to something.
It's 100% true. I know this sounds crazy, but when we moved our snake plant from the kitchen to the bedroom, our sex life got way better right away. I put one downstairs in my gym, and I'm benching 315 for reps now, no joke. It's crazy but true.
pls.... @@ed3829
@@ed3829yeah it sounds crazy. But is it true? Because i’m thinking of buying snake plant for my room
@@ed3829 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
I can see about 4 different plants in the room so why does he have so many plants in his house????
This video only made me feel like im wasting my time on buying plants , but i dont care what this guy said i still love PLANTS so much and im sure they still do alot more in a room then no plants at all
It doesn't matter how they make me buy more plants, as long as they make me buy more plants.
😂 I guess you’re right
Everything it's free from mother nature
Nah it matters. Honesty is good.
Its crazy he telling us this with 50 plants behind him lol😂
Might be in part that I dont leave my room much and the heat and air gets trapped but I noticed when I had alot of plants in my room my breathing was better
I live in a polluted area near a major highway so the air outside isn’t very fresh. I think indoor plants make a huge difference when you don’t want to open the windows. Modern buildings are sealed pretty tight. Sure if so lived in the Amazon rainforest I would just crank open all the windows and have perfect air
Penn State says 15 full size trees are required just to remove the CO2 breathed by one human!
I keep bromeliads in the bedroom not to purify the air for me, but to provide them with a heavier concentration of carbon dioxide the effects of which on growth are clearly visible. They draw this gas in and form maleic acid in cells then at daybreak they use the energy from the sun to convert this maleic acid to carbohydrates and sugars to create new growth. It is in effect a raw material for food. Carbon dioxide indoors may be five times the density of that outdoors.
Thanks for clearing doubts. I guess if this becomes huge trend, then it may have some impact on overall temperature ...
Plants help you, science proves this. Getting fresh air is never a bad thing
I never had plants in my room , and now i do ! And let mey tell you it feels much more better , and i kid you not the air is much better
Facts. I have 10 pants and one giant plant in my new home. It’s a huge difference of air
A 1992 memo on the NASA study by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency concluded, "to achieve the same pollutant removal rate reached in the NASA chamber study" would require having "680 plants in a typical house."
That's a fair few 😅
"680 plants in a typical house."
Challenge accepted.
Much different than how this guy interpreted that…
I think it is good to support the planting of trees and plants in urban towns and cities. We need more trees and plants in every town and city. We also need wide open spaces all around cities dedicated solely for this purpose. Every built up area should have more spacing just for trees and plants. We know it worked to reduce pollution because in England trees were planted centuries ago in cities to clean up the polluted air mostly due to dirty house coal being burned at that time. The amount of pollution being emitted (burned) was not reduced during this time period of planting trees but the air was much cleaner so we know this worked. As a result people's health improved.
Or maybe a big tree in the yard😅
Or they want us to buy manufactured air purifiers that cost an arm and a leg. Studies are paid for too.
I bought snake plants 2yrs ago just for the sake of having plants and decor, however, when we are having the wet/rainy winter down under for weeks, my room got odd odor and I can't properly breath as all balcony doors and windors been closed, when I moved my snake plants from living room to bedroom since I did rearranging for few days I noticed the fresh air and off odor disappeared and been sleeping well with clean air. Then I realized how effective air purifying plants. I got some for bathroom and house of peace lilies, Chinese evergreen, etc to reduce dampness and clean up air and they worked.
Maybe because u have airy place so u haven't yet realized how effective they are., same here not until we got this weather
Thanks for sharing your experience. Are you in Australia?
@@SheffieldMadePlants yes, bottom watering, i will do what I learnt from ur channel, thanks
@@eckehareckbert2731 👌
I keep a hanging ivy and spathiphyllum near my bed because I have allergies & sinusitis. (Also, I hate to dust!) I need ALL the help I can get to live well & breathe clearly!!
Will it safe about the CO2 that the plants will produce? I plan to plant it inside my bedroom which is mean a place where I will sleep.. but scare the co2 the plant will produce will not good for my health..
Mr Sheffield...this may be a point off contention forever. Well...are there any ways that our plants are harmful to us? Of course if we eat some of them....my point is simply ...they bring me so much joy i think i can handle the difference in opinions. Keep up the good work...
It’s true that plants do not purify the air. They do, however, provide oxygen as a waste product which we humans breathe in so having one or two here and there in the house can’t be a bad idea.
Mr sheffield... I am reminded of the many things..that we have been taught many things throughout our lives that were later shown to be false information. I am definitely not being critical of anyone that has a difference of opinion. We are all entitled ...but let's not make it personal. We are all friends here...who love what you bring into our lives to make it more enjoyable.
The bait click guy uses zero common sense, if you need 680 plants to clean your house plant them outside and open the windows to get the fresh air.
Apartment buildings...in a polluted city...I'm keeping the plants. I need more oxygen.
My room gets very Damp and have breathing issues. I’ve added in plants to my room as I heard can help, and guess what it helped!! I guess it’s different for you sir. Take care
Probably because plants absorb the humidity
maybe it’s because many plants photosynthesise and the place of oxygen producers are all near you.
This video is a lie.
@@thadevilzadvocateNo, it’s not… people are throwing anecdotes in, as if it’s scientific, but it’s easily dismissed as placebo.
Many missed the point entirely ...
It's not complicated. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. Some also absorb humidity through their leaves. This is air purification enough, to be fair.
Great information! I'm really surprised that SO many of the comments on this video are some variation of "I think you're wrong, because in my singular anecdotal experience, when I have plants in my house I breath better". Like, did you not watch the whole video?? He literally said that there IS good evidence that house plants make us feel calmer and more peaceful. When you're relaxed, your breathing will be deeper and better. It's not the plant cleaning the air, it's your _reaction_ to the pretty plant. 😂
As I understand it plants only purify air if you water them with ice cubes.. 🤣
You got it 😅
Well done
thank you thank you for logic and science!!! also for the picture of the lab poking through the doggy door when you discuss airtight labs.
With houses becoming more air-tight relative to the past, I wonder if we graphed "number of air changes per hour in the home" on one axis and "number of house plants required to acheive the results of the NASA study" on the other, what would the resultant curve look like?
I know forced air heating makes this whole thing not so straightforward simce you exhaust air to the outside and the furnace pulls in new air from the outside. During cooling though, the air is recycled so maybe ot could make a difference there.
but what if your house has terrible ventilation? what then huh?
Pro tip, live in the forest😊
Ive never thought that it could be workable in a home.
Hahahahahaha - so NASA lied, okay. Well, it is a fact as you say that plants do remove some nasties from the air and they release oxygen, even if it's an extreme minute amount - I'll take it and be happy. I don't live in a sealed environment, but I'll take one particle being removed by plants and I'll be happy with whatever oxygen comes out - something is better than nothing. Every little bit helps. Also, they are extremely beautiful and it's a fact that plants are beneficial to humans in more ways than one. There will be more studies.
NASA didn't lie. The results have been misinterpreted!
No one said they lied.
My kitchen doesn't smell since I put a couples of sansevieria laurentii.
Also I put some dracaena, sansevieria, and aglaonema in my office. It's a smoking room and the smells gone in less than one hour. I don't if it is the air purifying effect or something else?
But they DO purify the air… your video needs a new title.
functionally they don't. essentially this study is not generalizable and therefore irrelevant to uses in the real world.
This guy was probably slapped with a leaf when he was a kid. 🍃😂
This is probably a way to get people to buy expensive Air purifiers instead.
🤣 You never know.
can plants cool down a house ?
Its not a marketing gimmick! Try living in a new home without plants you will surely stink. I had stinky shoe problems in a house of 5people. Thanks to the indoor plants they removed all the funky smell. 🙏🥰 lingering poop smell, bad odors gone. Please encourage you the more plants the cleaner the air the better. Keep plants indoors enjoy health Blessings
if you have a couple plants they make the air fresher
Do you know that metal and wood which stayed in a room for the same amount of time both of them have the same temperature but metal feels cold and wood neutral to warm
So what i want to say is with plants i feel like the air is becoming fresher in a more satisfying way
Do you feel the same with your house plants ?
That’s great plants make you feel that way
@@SheffieldMadePlants as long as I dont breath in warm air its fine
It's somewhat uncomfortable even though in some villages the air is good despite the hot air I think it is because of the ozone layer and the missing smog
I want that in my Home so I thought about buying many easy to take care about plants like aloe vera and than i have good air
What do you think wil it work ?
I have 30m²
I'm bookmarking this video so I can pull it up when I talk to someone about plants/gardening and they say that plants purify the air. 😂It always seemed like a load of bull to me, or at least that it would require more plants than you have space/time to deal with. I keep plants in my home because they are beautiful and make my living space feel more alive, no additional reasons required!
Love that!
DUDE look behind you
What you spotted?
I need more proof
interesting
Ah, but the plants do create a calming, pleasant "atmosphere".
(Apologies. I couldn't resist.lol)
😂😂
I just found your channel and I am really enjoying your videos, I would have to disagree with the logic you used in this video though.
I don't see how you came to the conclusion you have. What you've stated is that no realistic amount of plants can purify the air more than is already provided by the natural air gaps in houses. This is likely true, however, this isn't a counter to the NASA study and subsequent sales tactics as, as far as I know, they don't claim that plants are more effective than natural air gaps, and they don't advocate for living in a closed system with plants instead. The NASA claim is that having house plants would give you cleaner air than not having them, which is irrelevant to having drafts present in your house, and still true after considering the points that you raised in this video.
Anyway, I'm not trying to put down this video, I just think that this is a really interesting topic of conversation. Let me know if I've missed anything, keep up the good videos :)
Thank you. It is claimed that plants purify the air in our home but my point was that this is impossible because of the rate of air changes in our leaky homes. To have a positive impact on the air you need a closed environment and a lot of plants
so youre telling me i spent 300$ on house plants when i could of just got a dyson air purifier
Think of the electric bill, man!
I’m sad to learn the truth, but sometimes it hurts doesn’t it. I feel The woman at the store actually believes her plants purify the air in her own home. I don’t think she personally was trying to sell me a plant with that feature. It was more of a benefit. She seemed so passionate about plants and energized to talk about everything she knows. I do believe in miss leading marketing tactics by companies, but the individuals really believe it. If they didn’t you wouldn’t need this episode. I found your shows very helpful. Thank you!
Thank you 😊
Dont plants need the sun to provide oxygen if its inside how does it produce oxygen
Sunlight?
So plants take in and breathe c02 and they "exhale" oxygen. Plants get indirect sunlight through the windows.
Yes they do. You put them in a sunny window. They need the sun for energy to convert chemicals to become food.
Wow, my new favorite plant video maker. I love your style, I can’t stop watching your videos
Thank you very much!
thanks for basing your vids on science 🌱
My pleasure!
Thanks for the information 👍 I needed to know that keep up the good work
Thanks 😊
What about Neo plants
Such a good channel, very happy I found your vids bro, cheers !
Cheers Chuck 😁
I've written several articles about this. People just don't want to believe it!
shhhh, Let them live their happy lie lol 😂 but still it is kinda messed up that it's being used to sell more plants. I think plants are a great addition to any home regardless, unless of course it has fungus gnats...... in which case it will be the bane of your existence lol 😬
Exactly!!
Houseplants myths you should stop believing 👉 czcams.com/video/l4A_sOE1QZs/video.html
You are spot on.
Thanks!
I think the air should be cleaner, unless the plants produce something else rather than oxygen.
Sounds nice that!
They do produce co2 as well lol
@@jackroped1 Really? I don't remember my science teacher telling us that in school.
@@mtloke5732Yeah they essentially inhale carbon dioxide and exhale both oxygen and a portion of the carbon dioxide. I guess humans are kind of similar, we inhale oxygen, and exhale both CO2 and oxygen.
@@sark- are you a scientist that has done some experiment to confirm the above statement? If yes, what percentage is oxygen and what percentage is carbon dioxide?
Snake plants help control my sinuses..
give 8 billion 15 house plants seeds
Story for the gods
If this is true then the only type of building which would work would be a passive house as the building envelope is designed to be very airtight.
Not sure what you mean by passive?
Loving your content so far. So genuine and honest. Thank you!
I appreciate that!
But they are crucial!
Yeah it really is hilarious. If you want to purify your air, you get an air purifier... Anyway I only stick to plants that actually work for me. They either need to be eatable or have a function such as catching flies. The rest I do not care for. Same with flowers.
NASA =LIES.. NO MAN HAS EVER BEEN TO THE MOON 😂
and the earth is not a globe, they are Not A Space Agency
Thing I learned from this vid: buy less plants because it is bad for the environment! Great vid m8!
Glad it was helpful!
Nice video. That's a great point.
Thanks!
Smart!!
Thanks!
And yet my plants make me happy and relieve depression. It seems like you have become anti plant or something. 🤨
Whys that?
This is from a people who believed the world is flat. Go back to sleep.
