I appreciate you for filming this video so many times for us 🥹 thanks Fern!! I was super excited for this one too ❤
I love that you have such a variety of different moss poles that you are able to compare, that rof with the deformed new leaf is so beautiful and unique ✨
Thank you 🥺💚
@@wildfern you should do a video on your experiences with all of them and compare which ones you like the most
Here me out, I know it’s hard to not rescue our leaves when they seem stuck, I was so bad at it. However they will unfurl when they are ready. Sometimes they’re just taking their time. I stopped messing with mine and they always unfurl in their time and I don’t ruin or kill leaves anymore. Also, loving the hair! 💕
I have some leaves that have never unfurled... months later
@@milkymoonmama369 And sometimes they do unfurl but rip. So in some cases it is better to assist in my opinion.
That "hey guys what's up" was so RAPID. That made me laugh, not even hating, that was just so funny to me! Love you fern!
Hey Fern!! Between you and Sydney Plant Guy, I've been so inspired to do the moss pole chop & extend thing. I think im up to 15 poles now, and a few have already grabbed on. Makes me excited for spring!
Thanks for all the great content, and congrats on 100k! I often watch at night while doing planty things.
P.S. I highly recommend the wire mesh you were talking about. Just watch out,there's also galvanized steel mesh that will tear up your hands! No bueno. 🤣
"I don't blame her for not being happy, winter sucks!" So true! Granted, not much of a winter in SoCal 😜 but I'm all for growing seasons and longer days 🙌🏽
I’m soooo jealous haha!
@@wildfern Don't be jealous of California.
You have definitely inspired me to put more of my plants on poles. I’ve recently decided to cut down my collection to focus on my mental health and now with a more manageable collection, I’m excited to put more effort into the ones I have. ❤
oh so many pretties! I'm so happy I finally have a painted lady and can't wait to watch her grow!
I really love your longer videos. It feels like I am sitting talking to a really good friend about a shared hobby. 💚💚💚
Also I got a plant a while back from a big box store I thought was a Baltic Blue Pothos but it looks more like your skeleton key so now IDK 🤷♀
I just started to work with poles in the past few months, I have a cebu blue and a monstera adansonii both on poles and it’s so fun to watch the leaf size increase !
super helpful info video and presented with sweet vibes for plants and people! Ty Fern
FERN!!!! Your plants are so big! So happy seeing them thriving!!
Ahhh thank you!! It makes me so happy too 🥺
your moss pole plant collection is beautiful. ☺️ i have around 14 plants on moss poles. they’re definitely some of my favorites as well! 🌿✨ especially my adansonii, she’s like 6 ft tall and has huge leaves. 😍
I am so grateful for all of your videos relating to moss poles. Im ready to put all of mine on. Thank you so much. New sub ❤
Your philo camposportaum is gorgeous I just got 1 and it's one of my fav,s also I love,love your channel.❤
Your plants really thrive on moss poles. Thanks for sharing!
Loved this video! Such stunning plants as always! :)
I have enjoyed seeing such a variety of philedendrons. Thank you
Thank you for watching!!
I also definitely understand the campo situation. i feel like less is definitely more in that situation. I'm excited to see how the leaves grow for you!
I'm just starting my crazy plant lady journey and I am so excited about starting some plants on moss poles. This was a great video to watch. I've been binging your videos. You do a great job...
Thank you so much for watching and welcome to the crazy plant lady club 🫶
I've always just LOVED watching your videos fern. Also.. You rock.. 🥰😍
The mature leaves on your last plant are so cool! I love it! I don't have any plants on poles yet but I have a few that will be ready for one soon. Wish me luck! Lol
I got a starter philodendron painted lady because I love yours so much! Can’t wait to put mine on a moss pole as well. Hope yours starts doing better for you, she’s still looking beautiful!
I have been keep my eye on the epipremnum skeleton key for a while! I think yours is absolutely stunning
I remember you saying painted lady doesn't really present perfectly on camera and I always thought oh well but when in december I went to pick up a splendid the person gifted me 2 huge painted lady cuttings and oh my, you couldn't have been more right! I had never seen it irl but I am obsessed! Also, yours could also just be winter leaves, I think she still looks prettyhealthy eventhough the growth isn't sizing up or anything
Hey Fern, love it when you share your experiences, it really helps me to take care of my own plants. I use metal chicken wire to make my poles and it is more sturdy but its also tougher to work with when you're actually building the pole. Obviously wire cutters help but I would also recommend getting a good pair of thick gardening gloves as the metal gets pretty sharp after you cut it. I would also recommend that you are extra careful with attaching plants towards the 'back' of the pole (where the zipties are) because I've had plants get scratched by the sharp pieces. Sometimes I sand down the sharp pieces but I mostly just skip that step and handle with care.
Thanks for that, great to see what others are doing with moss poles, they are SUCH a great tool.
I totally agree with Campo, a very underrated plant.
I also feel the same about not overcrowding, I much prefer a single vine or maybe a couple, where the plant isn't just a mass of green stuff but visible for what it is. Here in Australia the 'bushy' plant thing isn't so much of a thing, you usually also just buy one actual plant per pot, not a heap jammed in together.
I also started with wire poles but have switched to the plastic garden mesh with 2cm wide gaps.
I switched largely because I hate working with wire, it's nasty and I run a small farm alone while homeschooling my kids, so am constantly using wire to fence large areas, to build things....its so hard on my hands, they're constantly scratched, cut and calloused, and I just didn't want it for my houseplants as well!
I love the soft stuff (though I perfer not to use plastic, but needs must lol!) and I like the bigger holes as well which I feel will be much easier to get roots free from when I'm using the poles for propagation (which i will be doing).
Thanks, great video :)
Your house really is a jungle with all them moss poles 😆🌿👌 Very nice Fern!! 💚
I love the SP Silver! My new wish plant! 💚
Absolutely beautiful ❣️🪴🥰 i have some moss poles I made .. and I have an order from Trofolia that I’m excited about!! I saw them on your channel 🫶🏼 thank you for sharing 💚🪴
Thanks for the video and your effort filming it over! I bought a small ring of fire starter plant and I used a tongue depressor for the small first node…boy it’s taking off it seemed like in a week. I’m going to try my hand at a p. narrow & a p. splendid this year.
Love love all your plants😍😍 and you are doing great!
Thanks so much! 😊
I love your Campo!!! That’s a Philodendron that I would love to add to my collection 💚
Just always love your vibe fern!! I swear no matter how my day ends it’s the best sitting Back and end the night with one of your videos ❤ I love my poles but dang they are hard to keep moist unless it’s my thiccly ones lol
your amydrium is gorgeous! i cant wait for the video of restarting it. i had to remove a plant from a pole from the first time and i accidentally snapped it lol. but oh welll, chop and prop lol
All look great,and growing tall!
💚🌱☘️🌵💚
Omg SAME Fern with what you said about your campo! I feel like I've never heard other people with this opinion! I don't dislike bushy plants.. I just find them harder to care for or spot anything that goes amiss and I also just ignore them! I'm such a substrate girly too, I like to be able to actually see into the pot if that makes sense🤣 I also like to spot new growth and appreciate each individual leaf, so too many vines just aren't it for me! 1, 2, or maybe 3 is my sweet spot for how many starts I like going up my moss poles🤣
Jungle boogie definitely looks great on a pole, I have mine on just a wooden plank and it’s already reached the top 🥰
I’m definitely in the process of trying to figure out what kind of moss pole will work best for me. I’ve been doing planks more often lately, which has been fine, but there are a few plants that I think would specifically appreciate a moss pole!
Loved this video! Thanks for uploading content I know it takes a lot of time to edit and film🙂
I’m glad you showed your Jungle Boogie. I have one that it’s stem is growing wonky and I wondered if I should put it on a moss pole. I was waiting until you gave us an update on it. I’m very new to moss poles.
Awe. I had to up pot my Pink Princess today and broke a leaf trying to deal with the moss pot and leca. I feel your pain. I love seeing your plants on Moss poles. And like you too made a couple of poles a little to thin. I made a bunch of my own but now love the clear plastic D shaped poles. Love your videos.
I can really recommend putting your ROF right under a grow light! When i did that to mine, it instantly started throwing out the brightest variegation and also bigger patches of variegation!
" I don't blame her for not being happy . Winter sucks !" 😂🤣😄😉
Your El Choco has bounced back so good!! Looks lovely
Thank you! 😊
Lol saving leaves a plant moms specialty
the pink!!!! 💖💖
OBSESSED w/your El Choco Red ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you!!! I'm so glad she's making a comeback 😭
I'm so invested in the sharoniae! 😆 super bummed that the chop video didn't come out. I got mine a couple of weeks after you, but it's not rooted into the pole yet and my first leaf is slowly coming about now. I repotted kinda twice though, so I'm sure that didn't help. New leaf is beautiful!
Fern I swear you are just adorable inside and out! I feel like I say this every time but I think this is my favorite you've ever had your hair 😍 I've just started a moss pole journey and definitely struggle with keeping them moist but I am working on keeping up with them! Excited to watch this ❤️
Awww thank you so much 🥺 and I get it - they can be quite the hassle to keep up with! good luck :)
Thanks Fern!! Also just got to your El Choco and what a comeback she's making 😍 I remember how bummed you were when she started going downhill but you've shown that time, patience and perseverance can bring our plants back to their former glory!!! Amazing!! 💚
my jaw dropped when you showed the glorious :O so jealous of all of your plants
I have a couple climbing. I am using bamboo poles though 🤷🏼♀️ it’s cheap & less maintenance lol idk. Love the look of your nice mossy poles!
.. You can buy a garden stick (a metal rod) and tie it to the back of your moss poles, that way they will be stable and keep the balance.. The garden sticks comes in different lengths.. It's just an idea 🤗
.. Don't worry about your painted lady.. Her colours on her leaves will come back with the better and brighter light now spring has arrived ☺️.. My own Lady doesn't look happy either during the darkness of November and December..
hey fern for freeing the leaves, what i do is i take small scissors and cut the cataphyl in half, in the space where it’s not touching the leaf (i hope that makes sense🙈). so that it’s not connected to the other half and therefor won’t bend anymore, also because it’s not connected to the plant it’ll dry up and then you can just peel it off🙃 hope that helps💚💚
😂 OMG that vanilla orchid just can’t catch a break poor thing. Bless you for being realistic and for your dedication to get this video filmed for us ❤ I’m personally not much of a moss pole user, though I’ve only ever used the coir poles, I’ve never made one myself… I just know that I’m forgetful and lazy so I’m not sure poles would work for me 🙈
your painted lady got HUGE omg 😍
On my tippy pots I had a painted or cool rock, it helps!❤️
im just now sitting in front of my micans considering putting it on a pole and you upload this vid… 👌🏼
ahhh perfect! love a climbing philo. enjoy :)
Love the plants. Love your hair.
Thank you!!
I loved this tour! But my painted lady is going thru the same problem. I definitely think it’s a light or temp thing. Her leaves are sooo tiny despite being attached to a moss pole. Also that little skeleton key was adorable! I wish mine would get the memo and start morphing 🙃
Hello from the nook! Found your channel a few months ago, haven't seen them all yet LOL. I have a question if you don't mind. I was just curious about your education regauging plant care. Your knowledge and particle hands on experience is very impressive. I've been going farther and farther back watching some of your older vids to see how you improved over time, but it seems you rocked right from the start. clear vid and audio quality and very comfortable Infront of the camera (some training there as well?).
With the Q-tip u need to get it wet, also it helps if u squirt water under the leaf and around it where u can, then slowly push the wet Q-tip under the leaf and it should pop out ok. Good luck next time! ☺️💕
I'm a listener who lives in Korea. Today's video was also a useful video. ❤I watched it till the end Have a good day😊
I am trying a new dyi mosspole. It is the wire type but I put a piece of acetate inside so I'll have the benefits of less evaporation but the strength of the wire mess pole. I bought a roll of acetate cake collar (you can get them in different witdths), cut it to the correct length (pole length minus the part that grows into the pot).
I couldn't focus on what you were talking, because of your gorgeous hair. I freaking need to do something like this on my hair
Love seeing the growth on your poles. I’ve added several to my wish list, especially some philo hybrids. So I got a campo last year after admiring yours. Mine shot up a pole and matured really fast (outside in Fl). The leaves are now 9” long and lost their Mican/ velvety look. I promise it is not as exciting large unless you have on a wall to go wild. Yours still looks so beautiful. I think you should just propagate and keep the lush pole. I want the pretty velvety baby leaves back so I’m going to cut mine up. I wonder if you lost something for yours because it is too perfect? 🤷♀️
Awww fin 🤣💚
Cutest of construction workers
Gorgeous plants, Fern. I love to see your plants because it helps me know what to expect with mine. I made some 3 foot moss poles from plastic coated hardware cloth but now I’m thinking I should cut them in half since I would need a step stool to water if I extend. Is your plan to chop and extend, air layer, or just propagate to size up your climbers? And how tall do you see your moss poles in the future?
My Verrucosum has been a champion. It was my first “rare plant” that I got in Dec of 2020. He doesn’t look great, but he is alive and growing!
I put my monstera on a wire moss pole. It was a bit more difficult to work with the metal, but it was a good decision to use it for monstera.i made it a bit taller than the plastic mesh. I will not have to worry about it for the next year. It will definitely be able to withstand a larger plant.
Yeah such a good idea! I’m really curious to try out the wire. Can’t wait to update when I do 👀
i am really every your Vidios very much,your collections so beautiful
Thank you so much 😀
Lowes has fiberglass plant stakes. 72" long, less than a half in thick. Bundle 4-5 together tightly with several evenly spaced out zip ties. Strong, light core for your moss poles. Just getting into Pothos, and your vid is very helpful, and succint.
great video, i cant believe you filmed this three times D:
Fabulous plants and this is a very nice video. What is your favorite moss pole? Do you have extra lighting for all your plants?
I just spray a lot of water on my stuck leaves everyday, it works every time!
Thanks for sharing
I have a few poles, I’ve diy them all with chicken wire, love them
I put a beer plastic cup (with a pin hole) at the top of the pole and leave them on since I water twice a week to keep it moist, so easy that way
You should try a regular Pothos, fun the have variety of leaf colour in the house
Love your chill videos
Yes - I’d love to get a cutting of my marble queen on a pole. Thanks for the tips :)
Love the video! One thing I did with mine when i used the mesh is instead of zip ties i used twine, just for less plastic use. I think this could have its cons i haven't tried using twine when it needs an extension so it could be a lot less sturdy when it comes to using twine. Just thought id share!
Oh that’s a good idea! Hope it remains stable for you.
I love the hair!!
Thank you so much 🥰
For my painted lady I found that the growth gets kinda wonky/slow when it needs to be potted up. Not sure if that's the case with yours but maybe something to look at. Love these style of videos. Gives me more ideas on what to do with my plants!
How do you have any plants left after these videos? 😂 lol I’m sorry just giving you a hard time, beauty is they keep growing! 😉💚
Your plants are goals, just started a melano and verricosum on a moss pole for the first time so fingers crossed! Thanks for sharing!
Fern, this is such a good overview of the different types of poles, the results, the possibilities, and the experience. I think this will be super useful to anyone starting the moss pole journey!
Fern, your plants look HUGE! I don’t remember any of these looking this big in your videos…what the heck?! 😂
Omg maybe it's because I'm sitting further back so you can see them from a different perspective? Idk but THANK YOU 🫶 they do be growing 🌿🙌
The way I hollered at the falling pon 😅😩 Somehow I manage to get it everywhereeeeee
Omg I am making such a mess constantly over here 😩
Wild fern plants = #goals! How often do the trafolia poles dry out compared to your diy plastic poles? And do you give any special care that you provide the vanilla orchid? I had the non variegated one and rotted two of them once transition to a moss plank. And omg where did you get the burl Marx fantasy? It’s stunning! Oh and crusty cataphylls = 100% satisfaction 😆
Not sure if you’ve seen the clear moss poles on Amazon? I hope I don’t regret saying this on your channel. as I would be heartbroken if I went to order and they were out of stock 🤣 But you can get like 4 for 20 bucks. They are amazing ❤
Have you seen the sort of half cut pvc pipe moss poles? I first saw this done by kill this plant on CZcams. They certainly are not the most attractive but they seem like a great option! There is no mesh or anything like that for the roots to get tangled up in so it looks like if you were trying to remove/cut/adjust plant it would be VERY easy! It also seems like it may be easier to keep from drying out AND sooooo simple to extend
When you switch your material for your moss pole. Use plastic covered metal. You just have to ask for at the garden center
My campo is tiny and the leaves are so iridescent! It's on my list to prop and grow it on a plank.
GREAT SH💚W!!!
Thank you so much 😊
Can't you put a long bamboo stake inside the flimsy plastic poles to make the extensions more stable?
The painted lady might need fertilizer! she's got so much lush green at this point she may need some help after absorbing all the nutrients out of the soil? Not sure if you water with fertilizer currently but just a thought! love your videos
"we're having a time" 😂😂😂
Same, girl. Same.
😅😂
I usually mist or soak the entire end of a leaf that looks stuck. It makes using the qtip easier for me.
Does the Philo splendid need a damp moss pole to get big leaves or is that just a bonus? They look gorge tho.
Man, all your plants look so healthy, loads of mine have died this Winter :-(
Great video, Fern! Question: how often do you water the trofolia poles?
Every second day because they are in front of my heat vent lol
Good and planty I think puts plastic cup with hole on bottom and places it on top of moss pole and fills cup up 2-3 days I think Not too sure though
🌱 I have yet to place a plant on a moss pole, I have some in mind that would benefit 😅
I just moved some of my plants onto moss poles, oddly enough!
Ahh perfect haha! They’ll love it :)
