    I buy 32 gal garbage containers at Walmart and use it to collect rain water. I also saved paint buckets and reuse them for rain water catching and storing.... i also rescue plant in my neighborhood on yard waste and sometimes garbage day... maybe 50 percent of my plant are rescues/free.....I also get a lot of planters/nusery pots that way too

      Aw that makes me so happy! So sweet you gave those plants a new home and a second chance! 👏 I also love the garbage can idea, you must collect a lot of water 😊🌿

    Amanda: Another thought provoking video! 😊 I also reuse, separate, and even enrich soil for repotting purposes. Rainwater is awesome. Quick one: I actually saw a monstera albo and Thai constellation in person! Much more impressive in real life than in photographs! I'm glad you own these plants. Aloha.🪴

    Nice tips! I use bleach 10% to 90% water. I let it soak for an hour, then I rinse repeatedly until there’s no more bleach smell; it works for me. Thanks for sharing.

      Yay! I love that! 👏 I’ve even started to see companies specifically making their candle jars to use for plants. 😊🌿

    I’ve heard the baking method but for an hour.

    I’ve heard of poachers doing that to some current “hot” plants.

    I bake my soil. It works, but it does make the house smell.

      They have one that I know of often at Propagate social house in Apopka. There’s also a few they do a year at Perfect Choice nursery.
