How To Make A Full Potted String of Hearts | Houseplant Care Tips

- If you've ever wondered how I get my String of Hearts to grow long, full and lush, the secret is starting off with a nice full potted plant. In this video, we repot a few smaller String of Hearts together to make one nice, full potted houseplant.
I wanted to recreate the one I have at home for the shop, unfortunately we couldn't find one that was already full and lush to begin with, so we combined a few of the smaller string of hearts plants together and planted them in one pot to hang in the shop.

We definitely need updates on the growth of this one. Congratulations on setting up the shop! Wish I was in your area.
I was literally just thinking about how I could make my SOH full lol
Dude me too! I quite literally clicked CZcams to search this exact thing. So weird 😂
Me too! 😂
Omg same
“I know the SOH I have at home seems perfect *looks to camera* because he is perfect..” LOL 😄
I got my first string of hearts a couple of weeks ago; a cute little baby one! It has already sprouted at least 5 new little leaves and I can't wait for it to get bigger :) It was your video that introduced me to this plant and it was one of the few ones that I really, really wanted since :D
Thank you very much for this video.
But you have a little bad transition to Arabic 😅
just got a tiny baby one as well…❤
I can’t wait to watch the growth on you SOH’s. You’ve inspired me to do the same. I only have four cuttings from a friend, so I just twirled them around inside the pot. This is a sure way of filling my pot in. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks for showing/teaching how to re-pot the string of hearts...very helpful to watch as you explain!!!
Very excited to see this String of Hearts grow at your shop. I know there will be good updates on it. Your skills helped your home String of Hearts to grow to its fullest potential so why not the newest one at the shop? It would be hard to top your home plant but, “never say never!” Wishing you the very best of luck in all of your endeavors!! 👌🌿🥰💚
Dear Crazy Plant Guy, I just watched your video on your store!!!! I’m so excited for you!!!
Can’t wait till it’s open to come in and check or the place and also say hi! Great videos and explanations on all your plants! Good luck with the shop! Much love and respect ✊
Thanks to u, I just ordered 2 pots of variegated SOH & I told my seller that I want bushy ones as I will combine both to make a bushier pot! Thanks Christian!
I’m so happy you decided to make a brand new pot! It will be great to see it grow with your new shop 💚
Thanks. Yeah I think it would be cool to have something new start off for the shop.
Thanks, Christian! String of hearts will be my next plant purchase and this is really helpful information 😊
I love the one in your home ,this new full one looks great already
💚🪴🌵🌱
That's beautiful. I love that shade of green but I might of picked a different color pot so the plant color stands out more. I'm looking forward to seeing how long it takes for it to get some good length on it.
I love this video. I purchased my string of heart from you, its in my west facing window and its doing great. I will be trying to get mine fuller also.
2 years ago I started with 1 cutting with a tiny tuber and 2 leaves. The first few months, it did nothing. After a year, I had one long string which I cut up and propagated. Now, I have a very pretty but still delicate looking, long plant and about 25 cuttings on water. Next year I'll have a lush full plant even though I always give cuttings away to friends!
I just bought a small Silver Glory SOH (without realising until I got home 😂) and I'm so excited to watch it grow into a luscious waterfall like yours 😊
You are one of my fave plantuber and I’m so proud of you and you inspired me to start my own too. I’m filipino too. That’s definitely a plus. Godbless you
I am excited to see how this turns out, I bought a 2 inch pot that had 1 SOH cutting in Feb. It's has quadrupled and grown like crazy over this year, you inspired me to do the first propagations of it. I grew them out and planted 8 in tiny pot for my mom, put some back in with the mother plant and waited. Last month I took a few more cuttings and have been watching them grow, soon I will put them in with the mother plant.
I start with a really good homemade soil mixture and completely fill the top with healthy cuttings. I place it in a large baggy to promote root growth it works great. I always add worm castings to my soil mix. You should start a variegated variety too. Wishing you much success with your store.
I love plants. I have 20 of them. I love your advice . It helps a lot. Thank you.
Oh wow! Thanks for this video. Can't wait to see how it turns out in time.
This was a great video Christian. I love your string of hearts and I'm working on making mine fuller at the moment. I didn't start with much but I have quite a bit of rooted cuttings that are doing well. Your always such a pleasure to watch. Have an awesome day!
This planter came out beautiful 🍃❤🍃
I just clicked on CZcams’s feature for Plants and saw your video. Love! You’re very inspiring and I’m happy to be a new subscriber.
Over time that SOH will be awesome. Can't wait for mine to be full, I do have some prorogating to add soon.
I'm glad I looked you up again, today. Miss these videos!!
Love you shirt! 💚😀 Christian, can’t find a full SOH, so I’ll make one! Lol can’t wait for updates!!
I'm sure the one in the sop will be wonderful but the one at your home is great . I got a small string of hearts a month ago and it really grows very fast
Thanks for another great video. I learn a lot from you. Have a great day.
i finally got myself variegated soh and cant wait to use this method after i isolate them from other plants
So helpful and fun! Thanks for sharing ♥️♥️
I love your videos, I'm rewatching this today because I bought a several to combine.
I was wondering if you would post an update on this combo you did in this video.
Tough competition! This new baby is looking lush 🤩
I love that string of hearts. 😍
I’ve been so afraid of my long hanging skinny SOH but yours made me want to try. So I ✂️ it and stuck the cuttings in water. What was left in the pot split in two just like you said for a fuller plant. I repotted and added back and such a fuller plant now.
For some reasons mine die 😩 I mean.. the cut I decided to propagate...I need to rewatch naome.videos here and try to find out what I'm doing wrong 😞
Wow 😮 I did not know you have a store now.
Well good luck your plants are great and healthy.
That was awesome! I was getting ready to combine a few small ones I had propagated because I'm moving and now I know that is the right decision, thanks! Question, do the little flowers these get ever actually open up? Mine get tons of flowers and they just eventually fall off without opening.
Very pretty! I think that would be a pretty expensive plant to put together in N. FL. Six inch pots go for about $35-$40, and 3 inch go for around $15. So around $100 to do a full one like that. I'll have to save up for sure, haha.
You’re so lovely and so helpful, thank you🙏💛
Nothing can beat the one you have at home!
Haha, thanks. I hope this new one takes off
Can’t wait to hv mine. I only hv string of pearls a very tiny one I got at $6 like really tiny 🤣🤣🤣🤣 but I’m thankful 🙏🏾
Loving it.... it grow just as good 👍🏾
A word for more than perfect: "superb"
Whenever I propagate SoH, I make sure the whole pot is covered with hearts and so far it’s been working great! My own SoH isn’t as full. Lol
Great job, as usual!
YESSSSS! I am so happy that you decided to create a new kid for the shop and not bring your iconic boy from home!!!!!!!!🎉😎💓😍🤩!!!!!!!! It will be so much fun watching you both grow together!!🤩😍! THIS IS A BIG DAY! 💖! Take a measurement, now let's see if western facing does as well as southern facing!HOW EXCITING! IT IS TRULY NOW YOUR SECOND HOME!😁🥰! CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN!💓🎉😘!
This is exactly what I did but with my Marble Queen Pothos. I bought three 3 inch containers and once they all became rootbound, I combined them into one 8 inch container!
Recently bought a 6 inch hanging basket of SOH. But I definitely want to buy one from your shop!!!!
Excited to watch SOH grow 😊
I can't wait to see updates on the new SOH!
Thank you Christian
Real cool video. I will try this plant. Thanks 😊
The first string of hearts I purchased, I tried to divide before I understood the root system and growing pattern. I lost many hearts that day. I had to swirl around a trail and bobby pin it in. It is recovering nicely now.
Greatly done!
I love your shirt and your string of hearts!
That's soh goals! Wish mine is that lush!
Love these vids! Can you do a string of hearts rehab video?
Mine suffered hard during a move last year and it’s SO sparse but putting out leaves.. teeny tine leaves??
Me, babying all of my Ceropegia by keeping them in nursery pots
CPG: “We are just going to gently terrorize these 4 plants into being beautiful”
Lmao jk but I’ve had such success lately with these 3 plugs I bought from someone, I put them in a 6 inch pot and it’s surprisingly full! I did add additional cuttings too and I’m so proud of her
Amazing. Now I need to go buy more SOH plants 😂❤
I can’t believe I don’t have a SOH yet. This video just made me want one
Oh my goodness.. I just subscribed to your channel 🖤✨️🥰
Just did this lastnight with my VSOH! ❤️
love this playlist
My String of Hearts wants to be like yours when it grows up. =)
it will one day. 😁
I saw some string of hearts at a high-end nursery this weekend. They were skimpy. Yours is gorgeous. Thanks for the video!
I lost my baby SoH when we had our "heat dome" over the Pacific NW. If we have another event like that, the new SoH will be spending a few days in the basement.
Your new SoH won't be better, it will be just as good, but different. :)
Another great video. Thank you
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it.
Newbie here i live in Quebec do you deliver ?You take such good care of those babies have a great and Blessed Day
Making an exceptional string of hearts
Great vid and again, beautiful SOH you have there. Just wondering, how do you pot back a propagated string back to the mother plant? I cut some stings, then water propagated and i got no idea how to pot them back to the mother plant. All i can think of is to repot the whole thing :P... or do i just like make a little hole and somehow fit the roots of the propagated string into there?
If you tend to overwater your plants use a well mixed soil. That is, pumice, perlite, vermiculite, coal, orchid bark, cacti soil and any organic soil. Once I started doing so, I've never had a root rot issue. This might be helpful for beginners.
For sure. Key is just making it more airy to allow water to drain through nicely. I normally would prefer pumice over perlite as they are heavier and stay working the soil, where as perlite over time rises to the surface.
Vermiculite holds moisture, no?
@@e.MiLixx indeed it does
You got the most perfect SOH ever
My favorite part of growing plants or anything really. Is starting with a baby and growing it out. I keep my Aloe Vera plants first pop for this reason. It has its own pot now but it has literally never been out of the room.
I love my soh, I shouldn't complain that it grows fast.. but I'm complaining 😂
I bought 2 3 inch pots, didn't have any length.
Then just exploded and now it's 10 feet long. I just coil it all on top of the pot lol.
i just got 5 of the 2 inch pots, planning on putting them in a 6 inch together. we shall see how she goes.
This is a beautiful plant.
I actually touched the leaves and they felt amazing and plump!!
Hello Christian, Sorry, but none can sir pass your beautiful guy at home. Yes, the SOH for the shop will be nice......I am sure of it. Have a wonderful week. 🌸
super perfect sounds right 🤔😊
Cant wait to have my own SOH lol
Thanks this video is so helpful to me to repot my plant, but had a question what kind of planter ( terracotta, plastic or ceramic) works best for string of 💚? I am so confused right now it’s in nursery pot but it needs to repot.plz help thanks
I love your shirt!!! Where did you get it from?? 😍
Any recommendations on how or what to do to get bigger leaves 🍃? It grows constantly just not as big as the ones on top of my pot.
Love your shirt
I want to know where you got those plants from because I like the hearts my daughter would go nuts for these yeah we grow lots of plants and garden show thank you❤
9:47 You said you were not going to untango them and then you are doing it 😁
My string of hearts was doing great. I cut it shorter when I got it. Then pinched all the strings to make sure it gets fuller.
But some root(balls) kept coming out of the soil and they died...:(
I have to buy a new one...but I really miss my old one.
All plants seem to be smaller and more sparse these days. I finally got a string of hearts and it’s growing daily.
Another word for perfect- quintessential… oh yes I can not wait for it to grow and become quintessential 🥰
Ahh that’s a great word. Thanks Vicky. Yes, can’t wait until this one grows to be quintessential ☺️
Do you have any tips on how to plant SOH cuttings that are rooted in moss into soil?
Nice job, but I’d love to see you get the variegated ones to do the same 👍🏼
I want the T-shirt you’re wearing!
Do you know that you made me to fill in love with this plant I wish my house is full of it no I have that the green one with the purple back and every gated one but I still failed in propagation depreciate it doesn’t do good enough and the green one it’s taking long time I will try to use water and It’s so rare in Kuwait I’m looking for seeds so I can have a lot of it💗
IS there a chane you can do a video like this about string or pearls?? I would really appreciate it!
I have a few baby SOH, maybe I’ll make one soon
That’s it, I’m going to the nursery this week! I’ve been wanting one but afraid my cat will attack the hanging vines.
Getting out the spray bottle!
Haha, yeah if you have a kitten they can definitely want to play with it. But you can also train your cat ☺️
@@CrazyPlantGuy he’s not a kitten just an arse! Lol. But I’ve managed to train him not to claw my furniture! So I’m sure I can train him not to play with my hanging plants.
Qué hermosura ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Dios te ama 🇨🇴🙏🙏
I bought a big, beautiful 6” string of hearts and tried to give it the right conditions, but the top was very full and I didn’t realize it was in solid peat. I didn’t water it, but it came wet and by the time I figured out what was wrong with it the roots were gone. :( It is currently chopped up in propagation boxes and I think I will have plenty to make new plants, but they’re going to be short! I definitely needed to be more aggressive immediately when I brought it home and taken out of the soil. Everyone says to let your plants “adjust,” but two weeks basically killed my plant. I’m glad you got those out of the growers pots with too much soil why they were OK!
They grow crazy fast! I propped a bunch back in like June at the latest and it’s already trailing almost a foot on certain stems. If you have a grow light that helps a lot!
Thanks for sharing. Do you have a big window?
new subscriber. im in Fl. near Tampa. ive been wanting a SOH, today, im going to look for one. did you say to put it in a West window? thank you. and water sparingly. ok. may i add a tad of slow release food after a couple months or sooner.
I am going to try a SOH like yours. I get the perlite and potting soil but cant quite work out what you are saying for the last product please.
Hey.... I'm from India. 3 days back I got my SOH in mail.... I just potted n sprayed some water. Today it's main leaves looks very soft... Do I need to water it thoroughly?
Nice
