- Hi All!
I'm so excited to share with you my latest and most prized addition, a Vanilla bean plant. In this video, you'll learn why it took nearly 100 years for vanilla to be produced in Europe, how many types of vanilla bean and if you can grow your own vanilla. It may be a few years before I have my own pod, but I'll be sure to stick around and show you when (or if) it does flower.
Till next time.

I’m growing vanilla bean orchids inside under LED lights and they are doing great. I figured it out. I keep them in pots inside giant ziplock bags which keeps the humidity high. I’m growing them in Yacolt Washington near the volcano Mt. St. Helens.
@Ernie H I was backpacking near the mountain and Spirit Lake in August before the mountain blew. It was beautiful, hot and we would have been killed if the mountain had erupted while we were there. I’m glad I got to experience it before it erupted because it will never be like that again in my lifetime.
Seattle here; apartment dweller; looking to grow these and ginger together in an oversized (55 gal) aquarium space.
Ginger in a potting soil pot; vanilla orchid in an orchid chip based pot.
Likelihood of success?
@@MagesseT1 I live south of you in Yacolt Washington. I just started growing vanilla bean orchids and they are doing great. I put them in a large 5 gallon ziplock bag open just a bit to keep humidity up and the cuttings are growing like crazy. I bought 12 cuttings. New growth all over.
@@MagesseT1 the humidity needs to be high for the orchids to be healthy and grow. Mine are growing like crazy here in southern Washington state.
I am also in Washington, may I know where did you purchase the vanilla?
Wow. . . Such a lengthy growth and harvest time. . . So grateful for vanilla 🙏🙏🌱
Hi
I just purchased my vanilla orchid from same nursery and researching information about vanilla plant care I came across your channel. Thank you for the information.
My vanilla bean, coffee and jaboticaba plants arrived from Daleys today! Wish me luck.
Just saw a video about a girl used plastic chicken wire in a circle around a pole to allow to grow upwards, apparently it curls around, if you place inside if gets cold, she is in south Florida, she said that this is the way Philippinos grow in their country
beautiful!
It’s been a couple of years I hope we get an update 🥺
We are growing it in PNG now.thanks for the instructions on how to grow it.
What is PNG? I’m growing mine in pots under LED lights inside a giant ziplock bag with the zipper open a little bit to allow gas exchange. The cuttings I bought from Indonesia are growing like crazy and sending off new growth.
I love it 😻 ❤❤
Awesome! Very informative. Any update on your progress? Thank for the awesome vid!
I bought one in Bunnings two days ago, in Mandurah.
This was a great advice, thank you!
It's very informative for me as a chef thank you so much garden girl
Hello! Excellent topic and video! Is there a follow up coming!?
I'm going to a Local Orchid Grower nxt week, has this for $60. But I think I'm going buy online, I saw cutting, $20. He told me I would need to, have to get a greenhouse, which am going to get before purchasing. Now I'm going to go learn abt Saffron, I've never used it, but I might get the plant if I can find it lol
Saffron is really hard to grow in Australia as we dont have cold winters, so they generally turn are annuals instead of perennial. I hope you get a vanilla plant soon!

I wonder if you could grow it in pots and stick it in the fridge or freezer. Better yet if you can just dig it up like potatoes or onions to chill for the winter -- if that works you could store a lot of bulbs in a pretty small space.
Jusst found your channel, please make more videos.
Happy growing!!
I wondered why vanilla extract seemed expensive, then I saw a video of how it is grown in Madagascar, and the fact that it takes over a year, needs expert care, is only hand pollinated, is risky with some crops lost….wondered why it was so cheap.
You are very pretty ❤️
Interesting video, Nicki, learned a lot. Are we going to see more?? :-)
🙌🙌 so glad you liked it. Hopefully soon!
@@TheGardenersLife 6 months, Nicki :-(
Thank you so much for the video. You mention your climate as being suitable for the vine, so what region of Aussie are you in? I'm back in N.Z now, just north of Auckland, so maybe not ideal for outdoor growing? I kind of wish I'd experimented with this in Derby or Milingimbi when I lived there. Cheers.
Aw sounds like that would have been so interesting. Thats okay there are many plants you can experiment in New Zealand with now. Im in New South Wales, the vine is still going strong. I should update on my tea and vanilla plants soon.
Huh it's been 3 years since you made this video. We need an update. 😊
Did you get any flowers? Any updates?
How’s your vanilla plant journey going?
Now I know why it's easier for them to use beaver butt AKA natural flavor than Vanilla beans! that's crazy.
Yo thank you for the info variety of vanilla beans where they grow didn't know that there was even different types of bees that would pollinate specifics
Hi, how are you going? Ive bought my first vanilla plant from a garden centre and have it growing in my bathroom.
Hi it has been about a year since you left this comment and I am just curious how is your vanilla plant now?
@@LarimarP Growing well. I repotted it into a larger ceramic pot and mist it regularly (keeps the climbing roots hydrated) I tried spelling it during summer but no flowers yet. I bought another plant from bunnings about a year after this one but haven't repotted it yet and it seams to be growing slower.
the music in the background was a little too much
Any updates on the vanilla orchid?
Hi Thank you for your video, which state in Australia are you? I couldn’t find it in Bunnings NSW
Joondalup in Perth
❤❤❤
I’d be most interested in growing this and Cacow together.
Would you please offer suggestions for soil amendments for both?
Zones 9 a/b
I probably cant grow cacao in my home now as its quite small. Would love to if i had a farm. Ill do a video on soil for orchids 🙂
@@elji44 Has that ever worked on anyone dude? Just curious.
I guess the answer was no given he deleted his comments...
Any updates? Able to show us pollination by hands, m8? Or did you eat the pods?
Hi, do you know if this plant produces seeds? I have grow some small cacao from seeds and would love to do the same with vanilla
Yes, the vanilla pod has the seeds inside. It is difficult to grow from seed, though not impossible. People mostly use cuttings to propagate.
What happening after three years now beautiful ❤ would you feed as with results also all details of your journey within
Update?
We had a plant/vine like that growing like a weed in a house mum rented when I was a kid in Ballina NSW. And, yeah, grew beans. Mum told us not to eat them because we didn't know what they were. She'd pick them and chuck them. All over everything. Ha, wouldn't it be funny if 🤣👍🏿🇦🇺
Haha how funny
What do you do when the black dot mildew starts to appear
I havent experienced this before. Are you sure it is mildew? First step is to properly identify what disease it is. It sounds like it could be either fungal or black rot. If from overwatering, then would suggest drying out soil or repotting, removing infected sections and applying fungicide. Wishing you the best of luck. Hoping to do an update video soon on my plant growth.
I stopped black fungal spots from appearing by doing two things: 1) first cleaning with peroxide then using a spray fungicide (I happen to have Garden Safe brand "Fungicide 3" with fungicide, miticide and insecticide for my fruit trees which are prone to black mold as well), then 2) increasing air circulation using USB-powered fans (small 2-3" PC cooling fans).
I bought a plant and it is rotting I’m trying to salvage the parts that are still alive
do I need to grow a bee colony to produce vanilla
I guess this her last vid.
hand pollination only
What online store?

Sooo, I have to wait YEARS to start to have vanilla beans if I buy the plant?! 😳
Just wait till you find out about pineapples

You have waited years for a vanilla? I got a huge 20+ leaves veariegated cutting for 4$ in just 3 days. And a potted small non variegated one for 3$.
Where did you get It from? Link the store please?
Is that weed in the back?
The title is a strong hint.
You didn't really need to repeat the introduction.
😅

Hi 👋 ive had a really rough year 😔 its been hard but wanting to get back into videos. I am planning an update on the vanilla plant - yes, its still growing strong 💪
Thanks for everyones lovely comments. Ill be coming back soon 🥰

OAH MY GOODNESS GET TO THE POINT🥴🥴
I want to learn everything is that wrong
Nice video but if you're going to put a video with the title growing your own vanilla bean it should be about that and not about the history of the vanilla bean I'm just saying you wasted the entire video
Update?
