  • Hello everyone! It was time for me to catch up on some of my overdue plant chores. Did I have to do it during a heatwave since I waited this long? Absolutely not. Did it have to be a massive repot? Also no. But pick the most inconvenient time to do something so you can complain about it more - that is a life tip from Miro. I also need some help for a planty decision so make sure to stay tuned until the end!

    I like your idea of using separate pots in the rusta. It is very hot here in Northern Kentucky, usa. We just finished 10+ days of 90+ F. Before that we had a month or more of rain.

    Instead of paying for sticks marketed for plants, free wooden chopsticks from take-out works just as well as stakes for plants. :)

    When ever you ask what you should do and sit there to think about it, can you hear us all answering 🤔. Just love that Ikea tray to work with mess. I have two of them, I bought one and my husband bought me another one. I think he was trying to tell me something 😂

    I have been growing Episcia for a couple of years now in Idaho, USA. They are very easy here and don't need a terrarium. They are easier than African Violets. I have terrariums but only in aquariums. I just leave my plants in pots and put them in. It is much easier this way to move them out, etc. They grow roots through the bottom of the pots anyway. I have tried putting chicken wire with spagnum moss on it in the back, but eventually I got bored with that. I also tried bark glued to the back, but that to was very messy to maintain. I think you really have to be devoted to the whole eco look to create and maintain a whole terrarium set-up. I just want my plants to thrive so it wasn't for me. Benji on utube set up one which was very nice. He never shows it anymore so I think he abandoned it. Which ever you do, I am sure it will be successful. Just start putting it together slowly. Don't get to many plants before you have a place to put them. Good luck!

    You know you are the best plant content creator. Your sarcasm and humility is such an interesting combination. Plus just read the "A Song of Ice and Fire" series. The show is a cheap imitation in the earlier seasons, and bad a fan fiction in the later seasons

      No, I liked it. But to be honest at some point you understand the source material was not in the level of the show runners. They were really out of depth and failed to understand what made GOT interesting

    After surviving a brutal summer i am now freezing my toes off and blowing out power fuses trying to run a heater in the greenhouse and the main house simultaneously 😂 Also i dont understand how you keep a white shirt looking white during a repot session... what video magic is that!

    • @BasiePlants
      @BasiePlants  Před měsícem +1

      LMAO, that shirt is not so white anymore! Also, those are two different white shirts. Couldn't get just one filthy, had to get another one lol. I will trade your winter for our summer!

    I bought a new beautiful Hoya and thought of you! I’ve been repotting and switching what I can to self-watering pots. It makes it so much easier to water 300 plus plants. I even invested in some hanging self-watering pots, too. I hope you and your plants survive the heat wave! ❤️

    Micro! What an incredible video and how come it’s taken sooo long to show that awesome way of planting those cuties using the tiny pot.. it’s fantastic! Anyway hope you have had a bit of a cool down.. it was very hot here in Toronto but the nights are a bit cooler and I am grateful

  • @LoveeeJonesss
    @LoveeeJonesss Před měsícem +1

    It has been the same temperature where I am, but we finally got rain today so it’s cooled down to 85°F/29°C and it’s crazy how that feels cool now!
    I have not trellised any of my Hoyas, but I’m starting to get jealous of the growth I’m not seeing! Everything has grown but when I see trellised ones online I’m like hmm I should. I bought two tiny metal ones but can’t decide which Hoyas to use them on…

    • @BasiePlants
      @BasiePlants  Před měsícem +2

      Some will benefit a lot from being trellised. Some won't care either way. It depends on the hoya. Sorry you had the same temperatures 😩

    I found a jar that is 3 gallons (I think) and I'm also waiting till the fall to start making it into a terrarium and I"m pretty sure everything I put in it will die. It's hot AF here in Canada. The plants love it but I'm dying. Anyways my "advice" is to trust your gut feeling. I think easing into it slowly and leaving yourself the ability to abort mission at any time is smart if you're not confident in what you're doing. I hope that didn't sound mean. I think it's the wise way to go. Love your videos. My Hoya obsession/addiction has only really taken off in the last year so. Late bloomer I guess, haha! But I"m learning a lot from your vids, so thank you!
    Anyways I could ramble on so I"ll stop. Where are you that there is no Amazon?
    I think I've watched GOT 5 times now? Not sure, but there's really nothing else like it. So incredibly well done. Enjoy!
    Take care :)

    Hello Mero from Puerto Rico!! I’m also in the process to do my second terrarium but now into a 30 gallon aquarium. It’s all a process and getting all the supplies before the plants finally come in. Will be getting the majority of the plants this Friday at the plant festival. I have the lecca for the reservoir, the terrarium filter, fluval stratum, soil, and the ground moss. I need to get a top with a light…coming soon to another video.

    Hi Miro! Not sure if you have this locally, but try looking for window screening for the mesh.

    • @BasiePlants
      @BasiePlants  Před 27 dny

      I am not sure if that would hold up the plants? We have plastic mesh, the type that you'd use for a mosquito net. :)

    I wouldnt turn this one in an Terrarium. I think its not a good Idea for an Taurus (neither Scorpio 😂). You can get a real glas Terrarium with a slide door for 60 euro. These are easier to manage... Cmook
