      I admire you guys. Northern countries are beautiful, and the people are cultured and warm. But as Colombian who has lived in Italy and currently lives in the Northeastern US, one of the things I appreciate from winters in Philadelphia, even in Chicago where I have also lived, is that they are sunnier than European winters. Even when it's freezing cold, you can feel the warmth of the sun.
      I looooove living somewhere with seasons. I looove cool and cold weather, but as a new indoor plant grower, I loooove my full spectrum warm hue grow lights 😅
      My apartment is bright and "sunny" even after 4:00pm. Who needs Christmas lights?😂

    Nice job showing us a pole extension. Sometimes you do have to wing it a bit. I liked the outdoor filming cause it felt real. Some of my plants are getting to the unmanageable size. Different for all of us. Waiting for a tour, with plants, of your new place.

  • @Twinleo1
    @Twinleo1 Před 8 měsíci

    Putting the pole together first is way easier and much faster. Also, putting the stake at the back of the plant on the outside of the poles will make it easier to zip tie and stabilize the plant and it’s easier when you need to chop and extend or when you want to just add shorter or longer poles.

    I found it easier to build the Grow Vertical pole first and leave the overlap untied and trim the mesh beforehand with a quick measurement, worked out a lot easier for me then trying to build the extension on the plant. I also only overlapped two zip tie holes so the next chop and extend is a little easier to manage without having to chop through the pole itself.

  • @plantylittlewoman
    @plantylittlewoman Před 8 měsíci +1

    Question: Do you worry at all about any cut roots that descended from the top part of the pole down into the lower part and will now die because they're not connected with any stem anymore? Since you keep the pole/moss moist, those dead roots won't be able to simply dry out and not rot, infecting maybe the plant? Thanks and have fun in your new appartment! Cheers from Germany =)

    I've got a vericosum at the top of the pole, but only a couple of spots have (barely) rooted into my grow vertical poles.
    If I chop it, will I need to cut the loose parts and root in water, or will they manage? Rescue plant so I don't want to stress it too much
