[@christiangraf1178]

I dont know much about calatheas (hate these beasts) but at least for peace lilies be careful to only cut into the brown parts of the leaves and never the green or even the yellow ones. This will hurt the leave and the whole area around the cut will die off aswell, essentially making it worse than it was before cutting.
Also "some leaves just wanna be brown" is poetic perfection 😂

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

[@TheLowJacq]

I cut my elastica all the way back to stumps and it's super bushy and keeps pushing new leaves. So yeah that definitely works!!! 🎉 it did take a minute for it to come back but I kept up with the dry out/drown routine and kept it under a grow light for about a month and then one day when I was getting ready to chuck the thing I noticed it had new leaves budding ALL over, I was thrilled! It's happily sitting in my east window and still putting out new growth on every stem.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Great stuff 👍

One thing I learned about growing plants, you can never grow them in perfect shapes like right from plant stores. No matter, what they will have brown tips like some girls just wanna have fun hahaha...
We don't have perfect atmosphere at home. Misting help some specific plants not to get brown tips and curls.

[@Oomzilla]

I have a huge monstera plant that I moved ("propagated") from the garden into a pot. I have made the mistake of putting gravel in the bottom. It's been in the pot for 5 weeks. I want to repot it properly but I'm worried the the roots haven't formed. What should I do? Also very good bloomin video again. Very funny.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Thanks. You can get them out to repot it. Just be gentle so you don’t knock off any roots forming

[@amyjones2119]

Great advice. For terracotta pots you can soak them for 24h and they won't absorb so much moisture from the plant soil.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

Is that good only for the beginning?

[@amyjones2119]

@@SheffieldMadePlants i don't know but no one I know has had issues with soil drying out too fast after doing that. You do need to soak them for a little bit when you repot in them the year after too but not for several hours.

[@chelseaclerke3582]

I always soak my terracotta pots before I transplant a plant into them. I also bottom water my terracotta potted plants in 3-6 inches of water in a container until the pot has soaked up water from bottom to top as well as the soil. So I basically soak my terracotta pots every time I water the plant, it works really well and soaks up the water surprisingly fast. You just want to make sure the plant and pot soaks up all the water and if there is any excess water left after half an hour take your plant out and dump the extra water or use it for another plant, if it has soaked up all the water and isn't wet all the way to the top, you want to add more water wait another 15-20 minutes, then as always dump any leftover water.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

@@chelseaclerke3582 perfect 👌

[@jeritsui5609]

Never really got attracted to calathea or alocasia as they just look a bit ‘too good to be true’ for me😅 so I thought I ain’t got to worry too much about browning leaves but I recently noticed my spider plant got brown leaves then my dracaena, benjamina, croton… even the lipstick plant got brown edges around their little round leaves! Ahhhhhh

I know what you mean! My spider plant gets brown tips too

[@iamjaviervillegas]

Thanks for the video mate. In regards to the soil part of the video - Wouldn't certain plants require different types of soil? Is that mix you use for all your plants? Thank you from Brooklyn!

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

That’s my general mix that works for all my plants. If I’ve got succulents then I add a bit more perlite to make it lighter

[@SpirituallyPlanted1]

Great video as usual. I do have a question that I have found mixed answers to ... do plants need night/ complete darkness? I am getting more and more into grow lights is why I'm curious.

[@SheffieldMadePlants]

If you mean can you just have the grow lights on 24/7 then I think plants need a period of rest each day. Having the lights on for 10 to 12 hours a day is plenty good enough 😁

[@SpirituallyPlanted1]

@Sheffield Made Plants okay thank you, I've been setting the grow lights on a timer during the day and extending into the darkness for about 4 hours, so about 12 hours of light a day, they're thriving, I just was curious because so many people say they don't necessarily need rest. Thank you again.

I fill the sink half full with water from the water butt (which has come to room temperature for a few hours) then sit my plants in it for an hour.

Give em a bottom water and a third of the volume of the pot of water when they are dry. If they seem particularly thirsty then give them some more
