Question: when people say to "isolate" a sick or infested plant, nobody ever explains any further! Does "isolate" mean put it in another room with zero other plants? Put a bag over so it's completely sealed? Move it to the other side of the same room? Just make sure it's not touching anything else? How isolated is isolated? Could you explain, please? How do you quarantine a plant in a flat like yours where there seem to be plants everywhere, for example? Congratulations on 100k 🥳
Just move it a few feet away from your other plants. Try to keep them in the same environment they’ll ultimately be growing in. Not a dark room upstairs.
Pests can’t jump or fly. If you need a deterrent, there are nematodes, beneficial mites, etc. Do Not cover the plant! That will encourage more pests, fungus, etc. Just let them breathe naturally. No need to overreact.
New plants should be as physically far away from your other plants as possible, for at least a few weeks. If you can’t put them in a room by themselves, then I would either dome or bag it to prevent pests spreading. The tricky part is that the plant needs to get decent conditions to acclimate to your house which means supplying good temperatures and good light. Artificial lights are fairly inexpensive now and work well if you don’t have windows available. The bags of course should be clear ones.
If none of that is feasible, at the very least wash the plant off with soapy water and rinse. It’s really awful to have to treat your whole collection rather than to nip it in the bud
Don’t overreact! Don’t cover them. Don’t put them in a different environment than they will be living in. Let them breathe naturally. Plant pests can’t jump 5 or 6 feet, so just put some distance between it & your plant collection.
@@GreenWitch1
Yes they can 😂
Thrips for example fly
@@melanieg.9092 Wouldn’t know. I had spider mites once & they didn’t spread. My experience with pests is limited to that experience. Maybe my thoughts on the subject should remain in my head.
Congrat on 100k followers Claire and Brill interview on Gardeners World. Nice to see Emma getting in on the act too. Claim your button, you must claim your tick seperate
Thank you so much. Ooooh I can't believe I get a button!
I love rehabbing videos, i learn the most from them since I’m no expert I’m always stuck not knowing how to troubleshoot. Please make more videos like this one thank you♥️
Hi from Pennsylvania!🙋🏽♀️ I sent my mom a text to look out for your segment, she LOVES Gardener's World...well all things British tbh lol and she sent me a text back saying " How funny, I recorded it and have it paused where her segment starts for you to watch next time you're over!"😂💚
Oh amazing! Thank you so much!
Yay! 100,000 followers! You’re the best plant channel on CZcams imo!
Thank you so much!
My tip for getting dust or fine particles out of pumice, crushed rock, semi-hydro, etc is make loads of tiny holes in the bottom of the bag and then flush through with water several times. The dust and tiny particles will be either chased out or settle at the bottom of the bag. You can then use the top half or 2/3 without worry. Once you get lower than 2/3, you can flush again in the bag or tip the whole thing in a sieve and flush it that way.
Was so excited to see you on Gardners World! Was excitedly saying to my partner I watch her on CZcams! 😂
Hehehe aww yay thank you!
I have 16 Alocasias all in dirt. I feel the same way about my Sinuata as well. ❤Mine has 8 leaves atm with 2 more growing. I've been very lucky with Alocasias. All of mine have multiple leaves some of them with up to 16 leaves. The only one that has one leaf is my Jacklyn. Hopefully they will all keep growing throughout winter here. My air con is set permanently at 20 degrees and at the moment my humidity is naturally at 75% with all my plants. I really want to keep them away from going dormancy.
Hi Claire..another way to rinse your substrate or perlite out..is by stabbing holes in the bottom of the bag & running a hose or watering can thru it to remove dust. Then u can just let it drain outside & u don't have to take the substrate out of the bag 😊
Ooooh great idea! I'd be scared the bag would split and I'd lose all the semi-hydro on the balcony haha
Congratulations on 100k!! 🎉
Thank you so much!
Congrats on 100k! I’ve got it in my head buying rescues from a store that doesn’t take care of their plants is like buying a pet from a big pet chain instead of a breeder, you’re enabling that bad behaviour of not taking care of their stock/investment so they can carry on having those bad habits. So i buy my reptiles from legit breeders, and plants mostly from nurseries, plus they both have a “warranty” of sorts
I don’t find semihydro particularly low maintenance, I have to flush my collection every week or so, wash the cashe pots and inner sleeve from the nutrient buildup, it equates to having plants in a substrate for me
I do agree, I just find it hard to watch when I see them dying! I'd always rather be supporting independents
I like hearing others compassionately talk about plants. It makes me feel a little less crazy knowing others treat them the same way I do
Agreed. You get attached to them!
Definetly 👍🏻 it’s really so sad to see plants chucked into a bin. I got an alocasia zebrina out of a bin last Sunday in London. Poor thing wasn’t even left on the side but in the bin, lid shut on it and snapped its only living leaf. Fortunately that single leaf was hanging out by the side of the bin and I noticed it by chance while passing by. Now cleaned and rehydrated, on the way of recovery. I’ll end up three more zebrina at the end 😂 more plants to gift others ❤
Thank you again for another relaxing video! Whilst listening/watching I finished watering and pest control on a lot of my orchids and houseplants. I found you due to my renewed interest in Hoya and now I am binge watching 😂 Stay “sexy” as Ross says ❤🌸
101 000 followers! I'm soo happy for you! Like you said, it's just a number, but I hope you celebrate that milestone nonetheless : )
Thank you for this video, the chatty repotting videos are my favourite ones : ) I've also struggled with some of my Alocasias which I've potted in Lechuza Pon. I also had the impression of the dust build up and that it's too fine. I had root rot on my A. sinuata, Melo and Dragon Scale. I ordered some of the bigger Pon from Soil Ninja and hope that my Monstera variegata will love it : )
Thank you for the video. I always drag some half-dead plants home from shops, mostly they survive :-) Congratulations on your appearance on the BBC! I don't watch BBC but I would love to catch that episode gladly.
My lil A.Sinuata is one of my favs, in leca semi hydro it is growing!! Even got an inflo! Aww we can’t watch the BBC episode here in Canada yet 😢 I’ll look around
I’ve just repotted all my calatheas into soil ninjas semi hydro. The plants didn’t miss a beat! They have been in it for three days and look so happy.
Hi Claire. Congrats on your 100,000.🎉
Love your vids
Congratulations on the show gardeners world. I wish I was able to see it here in Canada we do get BBC but I don’t have actual tv anymore lol
I love doing my own planty things with your videos playing. It is your influence that has moved me to PON, and no more gnats!!
I watch your videos everyday. It makes me very relaxed and happy
Congratulations on 100k !!! Plantsaving videos are always appreciated! Maybe someone can help me with this problem: I have an Aglaonema and a Philodendron, bought as Babyplants last summer. Both stopped growing and instead are producing smaller and smaller leaves and I just can´t figure out what went wrong.
Well done with the rescue plant!
YAYAYYA congratulations Claire!!!!! You are amazing!, I am so happy for you reaching 100k! 🎊 👏 💐 🥳 🙌 💖
Congratulations!! I am sooo happy I found your account when I started my plant journey almost a year ago! You’ve helped me so much! 💚 I’m so thankful for you and your videos! I do plant chores “with” you all the time 😂
What a wonderful milestone! 100k subscribers 🎉
Been watching non stop for their past few weeks getting back into my plant era, so glad that i found this page! So much fun to repot together!
Congrats on 100k! Well earned 🎉
I bought a baby sinuata after seeing yours and love it! I'm growing it in soil ninja alocasia mix with no drainage, and slow release fertilizer pellets mixed in (my cuprea loves it). Also just in room conditions under a medium bright grow light. Looking forward to seeing how yours do!
@TheJungleHaven hi Claire just wanted to say congratulations on the 100+k and how much I have enjoyed your videos in the last year since I found you - I now own a collection of over 200 🌿 because of you and @GoodGrowing and @WildFern 💚💚💚
Congratulations girl you deserve this glad to see you so happy.
Excellent videos.. Beautiful plants .. ❤
So proud of you, your doing so well!!!🎉❤
Congratulation on 100,000 subscribers!!! 🥰❤🪴I have never seen a Calathea - Crimson Green. Good on you for doing a plant rescue. I have placed all my Calatheas in Leca now. They lost all there leaves at first, then new shoots started emerging. Calatheas are so beautiful, but can be drama queens. I would love to own every kind of Calathea!!!!
Yay congratulations on 100000 subs! Love from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️
Congrats on 100k!! I love the Dubia update, I finally got one recently and I’m desperately trying not to hurt it! 😂
I absolutely love your video I am learning a lot thank you
Congrats❤ love plants live in australia so different conditions but same plants always interesting 😂
Well done, Claire!
Congratulations on passing 100k subs - very well deserved !
Congrats on 100k!!!
Congrats on 100k🎉
Thanks so much 😊
Hurray 🎉🎉🎉 keep the fun content coming 😊
Well done on the 100k Claire, well deserved with the effor you put in. You get me feeling more positive when I'm in one of those plant lulls! 😀
Came across well on GW, didn't realise it would have been recorded so long ago. I guess it helped get an extra push with the subs.
Thank you so much! It was actually just a bizarre coincidence that 100k came on the same day as GW - what are the odds, eh!?
@@TheJungleHaven Keep going, you'll be the new planterina with a million by year end 🤣
“Ducking” has been such a valuable learn!! Thank you.
Congrats on 100K and the BBC interview
TFS Claire. Hi Jolie and Ross 😊
👋👋👋👋
Hi!! I found your videos recently and I've been loving them. They've definitely helped a lot when it comes to caring for my plants! :D I know this is probably a bit of a different question compared to what your used to. But I have several pets around and I was wondering what you do with your plants - if you do anything at all - to ensure your dog is safe? I didn't know if you had any advice that might help. ( Congrats on 100k!!! 🎉✨)
Congratulations on 100k!! How do you care for your huge aloe vera? Have you tried growing it in semi hydro?
Congratulations 🎉 100k! 🎉
Nice bit on GW. I subscribed to BritBox just for that episode 😊
Thank you yayyyyy!
Congratulations on reaching 100 thousand followers. I do have a question about fertilizer, how often do you fertilize and what do you use?😊 thanks ❤
Thank you! I use Liquid Gold Leaf (linked in the description box of this video) and I use it every time I water my plants, so long as they're actively growing!
Thank you for making long form videos. They’re way more exciting to watch than the blurb videos
Yay for 100k 🥹❤️🎊🍾
She's got the London look 😳😍
Hi Clair! I started to follow u on CZcams resently and your videos helped me sooo much! And as I watch gardener wold was so grate to see u there! I have a small wish though 😊could u make a video about piperomia plants please ❤anyway thank you so much for all information u give us helps a lot!
Thank you! I'll add more Peperomia content to my list!
Congratulations on 100K! Just started experimenting with semi-hydro for my cuttings and getting very good results. I am using semi-hydro fertilizer in the water basin. What do you use? BTW, love the channel! Edit: Just watched "Soil Alternatives for House Plants", posted 2 years ago. Answered my question. 😉
Ooouuuu. I’m looking forward to which one grows best in which mix you use. I love Alocasia’s
siamese corms 😂 claire i love the way your brain works ❤
What a deal! ❤
Hi Claire, could you show how you wash your Pon on the balcony? ☺
Hello
I really enjoy watching your channel, a few months ago I went in my local B&M and sore a Maranta leuconeura, and it was pretty much gone, there was two new leaves, the rest where drooping.
So I said can I have cheaper, as it is nearly dead. And I got it for £1.50.
And last year I went to my local lidl, and they had Monstera, and there were nice big ones with beautiful leafs, but I was drawn to one on the bottom shelf. Which only had biggish leaf and one small one. And I ask if I could get it for a cheap price and the manager who was putting out stock, took me over to the counter and said to the lady, the this plant will be £4. Instead of £12.
And she is growing beautifully. I even have Monstera plants growing out of my aquarium.
A question for future videos: What do I do with runners? My Monstera Peru has a 75cm long runner with a single yellow leaf. Should I cut it and make wet sticks? Or should it get a pot of Keiki / growing paste and try that on the nodes? I prefer to not grow it on a moss pole, I don't need the hight in my flat, but that seeems to be what one does with runners?
Your hair looks super fucking cute in the gardeners world clip!
When I see videos on semi hydro the roots always poke out of the bottom of the pot and people seem happy about it. That’s preferred? I always thought that meant time to move up a size
Hi, love your channel. Just a quick question. Do you check your PH of the water for semi hydro? I've just purchased some ninja pon. I've tried semi hydro in the past and I didn't get on with it too well. It was leca tho. I thought my ph maybe was too acidic or opposite - hence my question. I will appreciate any answer from you. Many thanks x
I do have alocasia sinnuata and grow huge leaves
Congrats on 100k subscribers, you’ve worked hard for this! Are you growing your Jacqueline in semi-hydro?
Thank you! And yes, I am indeed!
I've killed houseplants in the past years, all my life because I could barely take care of myself
Now I'm a mom to 8 Calatheas, 2 Peperomias, 5 Echerevias, 1 Hoya, 1 Polka dot plant, 1 Aloe Vera, 1 Cordyline, 2 Haworthias and 1 Spider plant and they make me so happy
hey girl what's ur secret to alocasias i struggle with them the only way i can keep them happy is in perlite with water at the bottom should I try pon 💕💕❤️🌱🌵🙂
Hi Clair. By any chance would you have an Alocasia Zebrina, or know anything about the plant?
Hi! I am a newish plant-parent and I'm still learning alot from creators like yourself. I have two trailing jades who for two years have been very happy and lush, but suddenly one of them started dropping leaves, turning pale, and looking all around quite sad. I took it out of the soil and saw (quite surprisingly) that it had little to no roots. I was shocked how it could grow for so long with so terrible roots. I repotted it with new soil and cut it down a little, but so far it has not bounced back. I live in sweden, so the light, warmth, and humidity is very unreliable. I guess I'm just looking for the final verdict? Do I throw it out and try again? Should I wait for summer and see if it gets better? Is there something I can do to promote root growth? Any help is very much appreciated😊Peperomia Rotundifolia(to be specific)
Do you wet your Moss or does it come already moist?
Congratulations on your 100k 🎉
Do you use tap water for your calatheas?
Thank you! Yes, I do
Where did you get your pants?? Those corms are crazy big.
This type of Alocasia like Sinuata, Dragon Scale, Silver Dragon, Melo.. I always, ALWAYS have the same troubles with. First they look like they need more water, then they turn yellow because I gave them water. If they are in a too bright spot, its already over. If its not one thing, its the other... And then they die.
Mine are in Semi-Hydro, I even got so paranoid that I started using Hydroproxide while watering too, which made it better. I assume that the fineness of the Lachuza Pon pebbles is too fine? Or I am just not talented enough to keep those alive. My Alocasia Scalprum on the other hand is thriving. So there is that.
I am confused, I bought a anthurium clarinervium and it came in a 4” pot with 9 leaves. I have always seen these with like four large leaves. Am I supposed to remove the smaller leaves as I get larger ones?
I would leave the leaves on the plant. They will fall off on their own when the plant has used all of the energy off of it 😊
Hi Claire, can you tell me what episode exactly it is so I can search it thanks
It's 2024 Episode 3 (the Easter special)
For me semihidro is mostly a headache 😢
Whenever I do the exact same with potting in semi hydro my plants rot away, even with a small pool of water, ive also tried it dry with daily flushings and the same thing. Only two have taken well out of the 20 or so ive lost :(
So sorry to hear that! It´s so frustrating when that happens. Maybe there was too much soil left on the roots? And have you already tried a coarser mix?
@stefaniek7477 soil definitely not an issue i was experimenting with bits and bobs but that was one consistent thing haha. I'd only got the fine mix so maybe thats why, though it seems odd when others do well! Ive also had issues water propogating even when using a bubbler and enzymes so maybe im just cursed!
@@ronymayronyCould it be a water issue? Perhaps tap water in your area is harshly treated? Maybe try rooting something in pure distilled water to see if it goes differently? If that doesn't help, yeah maybe it's black magic! 😂
@MagpieRat i have tried with tap water conditioner as well as water from my fish tank so maybe I am cursed lol. Our water is very very hard though if that makes a difference.
Hi, I just found mushrooms (like literally real mushrooms) in the soil of my fern. Does anyone know, what one should do with them? Are they harmful for the plant?
Ooooh yay! That's a great sign - it means your soil is super healthy!
@@TheJungleHaven Wow, thank you for the quick answer, very kind of you :)
Found it
🎉🎉🎉🎉
How are the plants doing? Can you give us an update please? ❤️🫶🙏
