🤗🤗✌🏼🤗🤗
You are a genius! You would be a great designer. How do you like this apartment compared to your last one? I loved your old space although this one is nice. I no longer have an office space at home. It’s my recliner. 😂 My cubicle at work has a spider plant and Syngonium plus I take care of everyone else’s plants for them. 😅
✌🏼🌱🌿🌱✌🏼
Congrats on the move! Holy high ceilings! My townhouse only has North facing windows so in my work from home office I have 2 ikea Baggebo cabinets with those barrina lights. I a book shelf by a window and have a couple hoyas on it thatcarch the bit of west light i get between 5 and 7 pm lol.
THANK YOU FOR THIS 😩
you're so welcome! glad it can help! definitely wished I had found a similar video when I first dealt with the problem a couple years ago lol
OMG, it looks so good!
Thank you!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Thanks for watching, everyone! 😄 If you haven't already, please subscribe to my channel! It would mean a lot! 🙃
Is it normal if a leaf is a bit weak? Like a litte folded
Yup! In my experience Alocasia leaves have a quick expiration date compared to other genus. But the moment a leaf gets weak or dies off they tend to pop out a new replacement leaf rather quickly.
Love the office space 😊❤🪴🪴🪴
Thank you so much! 😄
Looks good!
I really appreciate your comment! It means a lot to know you liked it!
💚🌱🌿💚🤗
:-)
The big move is behind you, congrats! Columbia and Poland?
I feel like organizing everything is the bigger challenge! LOL Yup! I'm Polish and my husband is Colombian :-)
@@PlantswithKevin How common is the surname Torres in Poland?
Not common lol I’m half Polish and half Puerto Rican but grew up with the Polish side of my family 😃
@@PlantswithKevin I just assumed you were Boricua, the mixed genetics makes for a uniquely good looking people.
@@Gee-xb7rt aww thank you! :)
8/17/24 I guess I missed them at my Walmart in Florence SC so I ordered from their website & it was $39 plus shipping due today FedEx 8/21/24 glad I saw your video ✔️🫶🏽
I’m glad you saw it too! 🤩 The one I purchased just put out its first fenestrated leaf! 😃
I've seen a lot of mother plants get depressed and die back if you harvest all their baby corms at once. Just fyi.
Thanks for the tip! 😃
Can I get by with extra orchid mix and no coco coir?
That works too!
Nice apartment, I moved from Gainesville Florida to Tampa Florida with over a 100 plants . A lot of work but I have most outdoor space now. Plants have put on more growth being outside
I wish Colorado’s climate would allow for outdoor tropical plants! 🤣
Congrats man good luck! ... and i hear you i literally just went through the same with my 126 plants 🙈just about 2 weeks ago still trying to figure out plants spots around 😅as I've lost my florida beauty and almost my variegated bird of paradise due to the miami heat 🥵
Oh no!!! 😟 it’s more overwhelming than I expected lol
Looking good so far, can not wait for all🌿be on display !! I moved 2 years ago and omg a big effort .... 💚🍀🌵🌿💚
A bigger effort than I expected! 😅
I can see that being the case I had 250🌿then😢
Your new place is so bright; your plants are going to thrive there! It doesn’t matter where you place your plants now as you’re only going to redecorate in a month anyway Kevin 😊. Happy moving!
So true! 🤣
I think once you’ve settled & rested, you & your plants will appreciate the new place kevin
Agreed! 😄
Nice space for your trailing plants Kevin!
Thank you!
I never moved with plants, but I hope you settle in soon!
Thanks!!! 😊
Your crystallinum is beautiful! How many plants are in that container? Asking because mine holds only 1-2 leaves per chonk and you have so many leaves!
Thank you! I think 8!
Time for those retractable hooks.
🤣🤣🤣
Hi Kevin, congrats on your marriage! I live in the metro area and would like to know what humidity percent you keep your planty areas at? Thanks
Thank you!! 😊 I aim for 60-65%
I moved countries so I had to give my plants to friends but I got to buy a whole heap more in Australia. 😍
Love that!
One question Kevin.. How are you going to maintain light AND privacy? You seem very public there.
It’s all going to play a crucial role in how we design our place :)
Can't wait to see the final result. Lots of light there.
Thank you!! Yes! I am excited :)
💚🌱🌿💚have to move in May not looking forward to it 😔
😵💫😵💫😵💫
I don’t move with plants ! I learned that lesson years ago . Now just sell the plants for medical experiments before I move . Hey it pays for the pizza and beer on moving day and you can start again with baby seedlings for a much much cheaper price . BTW love your new abode
Good idea! Couldn’t do it with these babies tho haha
Your Plants are just beautiful!! Love your new place.
Thank you so much!
If you could find a way to put plants on those columns 😍 I know they're concrete but my interior designer self would be inspector gadgeting plants all over those lol
That's a great idea!
Can people see in from the street? 👀👁👁
They can! 🤩
@@PlantswithKevin Oh no! They're going to try to come in, once it looks like a plant store! 😆
Thank you for Sharing your houseplants lovely collections beautiful video 😎😎♥♥🌹🌹
My pleasure 😊
WOW!
🤣🤣🤣
So cool!
😆
Love your new place!
Us too! 😍☺️
I’m excited to see what you do with all the different angles in there! Nice to have more space but I’d be nervous about people looking in being on the ground level. You’ll just have to block their view with plants I guess. 😂 Will you and Alejandro both be working from home?
You and me both! LOL! He works in person :-)
Your videos need to be longer.
Hahaha I’m with ya! Just takes forever to edit them nicely. 😵💫
Great job, but I still have a question for you is this soil mix good for aloes and succulents as well? Thanks again for your video and hopefully getting your answer soon.
You’d want to make them more of a succulent type mix that’s likely more well draining. Something like: 1. Potting Soil (2 parts): Use a general-purpose potting soil as the base, but avoid those with added fertilizers, as succulents don’t need rich soil. 2. Coarse Sand (1 part): Add coarse sand to improve drainage. Avoid using fine sand as it can compact and reduce aeration. 3. Perlite or Pumice (1 part): This helps with both drainage and aeration. Perlite is lightweight and helps prevent soil compaction, while pumice is a natural volcanic rock that provides similar benefits but is heavier.
That's Big 😲
😵💫😵💫😵💫
Hope the move is going well! I just had a friend gift me some monstera cuttings! Not sure what I do from here… do I let them harden off? Just put in water and let them root? You seem to be the monstera master! :) can’t wait to see how you arrange the plants in the new place!
Thank you! 😊 I would put the cuttings in water right away and watch them root 🤩
Got mine for $40 at Home Depot in Denver on Santa Fe! $10 more than yours but came with multiple fenestrated leaves, and a good bit bigger. Found about a month and a half ago.
😍😍😍
this vid title made me jump cause i am very used to soil mites being friends in bioactive setups LMAO
🤣🤣🤣
🤗🌿🌱🤗
😃
Congratulations!! Yes moving with plants is challenging but Is worth it if you will have a bigger home,will be fun making a new jungle ✨ 💚🌵🍀🌿💚
So true!
wow, I can’t imagine trying move all of mine to another place but so happy to see you excited! i don’t have nearly as much but am still a collector.
Forced smile lololol
That's how mines looked lol I only had a pathway I have over 700.... it was ridiculous... they where the last thing moved took me 2 days.... and 9 penske.. van trip....alit didn't make it......
Nine Penske vans? That’s impressive! Did you accidentally collect a small village on the way? 😂
I use tulle or however, it's spelled. I cut I large square and zip tie the top to the plant and tee pee it down around the rim of the plant and it keeps them out of my plants
Good advice! :-)
Too much talking don’t see anything in boxes
Maybe that’s why I’m not fully packed? 🤔🤣
