😂. A swap video
Dream upload
i think we'll definitely do a makeup video on my vlog channel sometime this year!! i hate seeing myself in full makeup but there's very little i wouldn't do for you guys these days 😆
@@unplantparenthood eeeek! the excitement you have instilled in me
Hey guys, I’ve been listening to this video whilst doing chores around my apartment. Thank you for the company. I use regular dishwashing liquid, usually Palmolive, mixed in a spray bottle with water and a bit of vinegar to get rid of any, and all bugs on my plants. It works wonders on everything, especially mealybugs, and I drown the first few inches of potting mix in a solution of it as well to get rid of the eggs. It probably would not work so well in non-drainage vessels, but for my plants, which are all in my own aroid mix with drainage, there is no long-term buildup of soap to deal with. I’ve never tried growing in pon or Lecca as those are very expensive here in Australia. Touch wood, I haven’t had a pest problem in a few years. I occasionally get a mealybug on new plant that I rescue from the bargain area at my local Bunnings (our big hardware chain) but a quick spray with the mixture and problem solved. I also use that mixture to clean all my surfaces. Thanks again for keeping me company and I hope you guys have a great weekend.
thank you for letting me keep you company while you do your plant things! and thank you for sharing your pest treatment with me. i will definitely keep that in mind as i battle this, what feels like a lifelong, pest invasion 🥲 hope you've had a great weekend as well!
You and Alice always make me smile 💚 Love your weeks of plant things!
thank you for making this series so fun to make!! wouldn't be a regular thing if people like you weren't watching ♥️
I keep seeing people giving the info about the granules causing spider mites to be more fertile, so I’m glad to see that the information is definitely spreading in Facebook groups!
I have thrips for the first time this year and I’m so stressed about it 😭
don't be stressed!! breathe-- i promise it'll be fine. just start looking at thrips treatments as a form of cardio. 😮💨 what's your regimen right now to try and get rid of them?
@@unplantparenthood I only just noticed them about a week and a half ago, but didn’t have any treatment other than mosquito dunks for fungus gnats..
I placed an order for soil amendments with OptimizeOrganics, and they sent me 4 predatory mite sachets for free (2 different kinds, one for thrips and one for spider mites), which was a nice surprise considering I was looking at buying them anyways!
I had been using alcohol on a q-tip and removing/killing them by hand, but I stopped doing that when I put the mite sachets out
The sachets have been out on my plants for about 4 days now, so I haven’t yet noticed anything, but from the research and feedback I’ve been seeing online, it seems that I’ll likely need to buy more predatory mites, since I’m trying to avoid chemical treatments as much as possible
I love these long videos so much and appreciate you for making them, I can put them on at work, and get my plant fix and still get work done lol. 💝
OMG I ADORE ALICE SO MUCH 🥹
I could guarantee, we’re all grown ladies in our cute plantie community. Meaning we’re mature enough to know looks aren’t everything!
We would never judge your partner! I’d be like “ohh so that our gals lucky man”! 🥰
I’m 36 & have been with my hubby since we were 19. Still crazy in love and I could care less who finds him attack (he’s gorg) but my opinion is all I care about I mean.
You don’t want other woman wanting your man 😂 I don’t hahaha. You don’t ever have to show him on YT, don’t feel weird about respecting his boundaries. It’s okay that he doesn’t want to! You don’t have to express how attractive you find him, don’t feel bad. I’m sure HE knows how yummy you find him and that’s all should matter! 😊
It’s just nice knowing you have a great man in your life. 🥰🥰
@youdontevengrowhere COME READ THIS 🥹
Omg😂squirrel and I don't read either, but I def watch lots of CZcams plant and style videos....lol. Trust me I married a trumpet blower...it's the MOST annoying noise in the world🥴😫Love when you are both together. 🪴💚
Gen X here and we did it first. Lmao!! My daughter is 17 and buying clothes I wore in the 90s. I love it!
I got huge bags of leca at IKEA for 5$. That was a year or two ago though. I prefer PON or a homemade PON as well.
i remember the $5 leca bags! but they're always out of stock in store. 😤
Sherman- “don’t google stink bug eggs, you will vomit”
Me- 🫵🏻 *pause* googling stink bug eggs…..precedes to 🤢😂🤣😂
LOL same here 🤮😭
They just look like eggs
I WARNED YOOOOU
lol, wtf did CZcams just put on auto-play while I started up-potting my plants. This is an eerie algorithm-is-watching thing. Anyway, your banter was so pleasantly inane to have in the background. I appreciated your company :)
Idec how simpy I sound; hearing you say that you hate your eyes baffles me because I think you are one of the most effortlessly beautiful people I've seen
collab video that I desperately wanted... Thank you guys!!
thank you for watching! 🥹
Alice I am BEGGING you to look up why men have red beards but brown hair I was cackling when you brought that up!
Pls I want the makeup video 💗💗
Yesss, so many good snippets as well. 😊
I don’t mind time lapse
Vision board house time
HUGS!!
1:00:11 I mad chuckled at this part! From hoya flowers to moshpits, drugs, and moving to Uganda. I also use a dish soap-alcohol-water mix to get rid of spider mites as well and it's been effective all the time
our convos always go absolutely off the rails (also i'm really liking that spider mite concoction!!)
Can you talk about the order that nutrients should be added to prevent nutrient lockout, please?
I didn’t see the link in the description for the party pon!!
Love videos with you and Alice! I just put it on while I’m doing plant/house care! It feels like I’m hanging out with y’all! ❤
sorry, i forgot to include the link in my description! here you go variegatedplants.shop/products/innas-mix
also thank you so much for watching and hanging out with us!!!
I also would never own another zebra plant!! Really beautiful but the thirsty tantrums nearly sent me!!
I did get a really beautiful time lapse video from it though, before I evicted it from my home.
Omygod!!! 3 hours video has been posted by my fav plantuber huhu gonna cry thanks for posting this long vids again shermen :>>
favourite?! 🥹🥹🥹
yessssss
Every time I peel lots of corms it’s only after about the 10th one I start trying to peel my skin off instead of the corn skin…. Yet I never remember to wear gloves at the start 😮
omg that's some serious corm peelin 😅
I’m so excited to see some sherm glam 😂 sorry I’ll see myself out
I agree with you on the Ecuagenera Anthurium hybrid naming. It’s very much confusing now and during the live sales if you are not careful you could end up buying the same plants multiple times. And The prices are getting crazy and customer service has gone bad as well.
1:36:54 I love Pudge’s tail, is it the sweetest thing 😍
I LOVE HIS TAIL TOOOO it looks like a little cinnamon bun 😭 also hi amy!!
I love when y'all film together, always have me laughing along!
I went to Ecuagenera FL yesterday and was so confused by all of the names. I kept having to open up their website to see what the actual crosses were. I did get a "Crystal Splendid" which is crystallinum x splendidum and I guess that name makes more sense than "Raven's Heart" but still super confusing. Just put the crosses on the label!
Wait, I thought a Raven's Heart was AOS x Papi? That's what I've been calling mine bc it's what I saw online, but is that not right?
I'll take one of those lil King Vetchii 🤴 that Alice has in front of her in the beginning 😊
Great video; thanks for sharing!
thank you for watching carol!!
Great a week of vid as always Charm! I personally do like fast play backs (can't think of the actual term now). And YES YES YES, I'd love to have a playlist of reference videos on your channel. Looking forward to your houseware thrift video on your other channel too! Thanks for your content! Hope you reach the big 20,000 subs soon!
I was thinking of the makeup collabs where one person is behind the other and is the “arms” and the other (in front) is the “eyes” you guys should try that with repotting!!!
OMG this is such a great idea. I'm gonna pitch this to alice- that would be so fun and worth the mess 😆
Amazing ....👌👍❤
as the person who asked the question, and as a native Floridian, I don’t blame you for being scared to go to Florida 😩 but it would be so awesome for you guys to get to go to IAS’s event!! I’d love to go whenever I muster up the courage to drive down to Miami lmao
I lived in Guelph and Ottawa about 15 years ago. I was told that French Canadians were the n-word of Canada when there. There were also many other racist statements made about black people. Also I heard they were canceling banka counts for protesting.
I find the question about millennials and plants funny. I’m often at plant shops and find Gen Z besties plant shopping or couples on dates. Not everyone is going to have hundreds of plants but, I think they speak to everyone on some level.
i couldn't agree more!!
I had stink bug eggs on the backside of a tetrasperma cutting and left it there NC I thought it was lady bug eggs bc t'was the season.... it was not cute lady bugs... I threw the propagation away after dunking everything in 99% alcohol... the pain still lingers 🥲
omg i would've yeeted it too!! if i ever see it in person i think my body may just turn to dust RIP
Whenever I try to root corms in a soil mix or water and dome them with a lid, they start molding after a few days. How often do you let yours "breathe?" Currently trying perlite, but haven't domed yet because I'm too scared to lose them. Thoughts?
Do you have holes for air circulation in your domes/lids?
@@pinkgiraffe1718 previously, no. I was opening them daily, but holes would be better, I'm sure.
If you both come to Chicago, it would be great to meet you. I live in the suburbs of Chicago so it’s not far!
i was just looking at flights today! chicago has always been a place i want to visit 💚
2:24:31 I mix my perlite and stratum in a Tupperware from the dollar tree. It’s my go to (with a Leca layer at the bottom) for rehabs.
Happy 17k Charmaine 🥹👏👏✨🖤
When I’m away, I miss my plants too 🫣
it's so nice to come home to them 🥹
I second the tea tree/peppermint/isopropyl/hydrogen peroxide for spider mites!
where are your green tank and shorts from? so cute!
it's from ardene! i stepped foot into that store for the first time in the 10 years i've been traveling/living in canada, and i walked out like $300 poorer 😆
That TPS BILLIONS just does not work for me & I don't understand why!! Ive heard such great things about it but all its done for me is bring my black velvet to the brink of death & burned & yellowed my others. I'm now too nervous to try using it again😅
Where do you guys get those huge clear nursery pots? I’ve been looking for a 14 inch wide 9 inch tall nursery pot in clear for months and I can’t find any bigger than eight or 9 inches. Does anyone else know where you can get nursery pots that large in clear?
Lol please just call it the Pee Pee Poo Poo podcast
that's my #1 pick right now hahaha
18:09 my husband is like that and he calls himself a “CHIN-ger”
Please do a storytime vid of your party days Sherman!!
❤
im gen z and i love collecting plants lol :3
Yay
Fried egg, white rice, and banana is delicious
i would definitely try that combo!
Certain corms (when I peel them) have caused me to itch.
Going on three straight days of watching this video! Thank you so much for this long one! I appreciate any content from you 🎉 loved having Alice on for so long!
To be honest you could just cut off most of the flowers on the peduncle of hoya flowers and just leave three and enjoy them that way
Taiwan is also great for plants hahaha don't they have the largest live plant library in the world?
yes!! also so great for plants. although i think i may be so distracted by the shopping and food that the plants would be invisible to me 😆
Where do you buy party pon?
sorry, i forgot to link it in the description. here you go! variegatedplants.shop/products/innas-mix
Do you love Anthurium Foliage?
💚#SousaFamilyGarden💚
Gluten for medical reasons like celiac or. Hashimotos is much more violent than just bloating out like a beach ball. 6 weeks of problems for me if I’m glutened.
It is not a diet trick, it is wheat, rye and barley.
Tons of fattening stuff has none of that. No other condition gets folks assigning motive to no gluten. Which leads to stigma, and sometimes, being deliberately glutened by people who don’t believe it is a thing. Please don’t question the reasons for anyone.
I’m confused by this comment. What is this referring to in my video? I’m not celiac, but gluten sensitive and have to take pills before eating gluten or I’ll pass out with certain foods. So I’m not sure what this comment is referring to?
Hey! I actually felt itchy like you felt now when i peeled alocasia corms. It went away after washing my full hands with soap
May be that calcium oxalate?
I'm not sure. But i really enjoyed this video
Girls regarding the conversation regarding sexuality. I’m like Alice tell her it’s called strictly Dickley.
May I ask if the discords server up ? I will really love it
I don’t stay at creepy hotels.
When alice says "i want to look my age which is almost 40" i instantly said shut up alice you are not almost 40 🤯
I'm guessing climate has something to do with spider mites, because I've never even seen one in person...but I HAVE been close to throwing my hands up and just burning my whole house down because of fking thrips 😡
Tried your discord and link has expired..
sorry love! here's a fixed link: discord.gg/ACnAxWZYAq
I get panic attacks if I take Benadryl, too, sometimes. It makes me feel so weird...
💚🪴🌵
i was reading some threads about it online and we are definitely not alone! i think the sensation of being drowsy can trigger people with anxiety disorder. i really only take benadryl if I really really have to. I'd rather be itchy than have a panic attack 🙃
