I haven't seen the need for fertilizer in my case but yes I'm positive it helps a bit. Keep up the good work!

free is great! better than mine for $49 lol. It's totally fine though, it still gives me joy and I hope yours does the same. glad I could help and thanks for watching!

By the way super cool video . Wish I could steal your script 🤪I’m sure it is the uniqueness. Much love and keep growing!

🎉

@@wiedesignarch Aloha from Hawaii! Glad to see someone like you commenting from Indonesia. I’d like to say I totally agree that not many people post about this plant and it’s very beautiful indeed. The more and more I care for this plant I realize how easy it is to take care of and it just takes a little time and learning, and it will give you the best results overall! I’m happy to see other people enjoying this plant and realizing how underrated it really is for being a variegated philodendron. I hope that your plants arrive in great condition and that it brings you joy as much as it does to me! Thanks for watching!! 😁🤙🏽

@@jasf1226 no, this method in the video is moss propagation. Works perfectly fine. You can view the results in my latest video. The previous fail was most likely due to over watering or root shock while it was potted in an airy soil mixture while trying to stay moist on a moss pole as shown in the beginning of the clip. Pot had more than enough drainage

@@DDHop all powerful sun! 😂Considering grow lights soon!

Good question. One thing I forgot to mention is that this is strictly for support and I don’t usually worry about wetting it. Just using this as a support as if using a wooden pole but yes it is probably still ideal to wet it every once in a while. My goal here is not so much to encourage too much aerial root growth. Just something to allow it to climb on. If I had used sphagnum moss then I would keep moist for that particular reason but I don’t want the aerial roots to grow too crazy and if so I’d cut it every so often if they ever got way too long.

@@Plantdudejamesso there’s no nutrients from the coco husks just support? Have you ever mixed coco chips and moss in a pole?

Love me some philodendrons! Beautiful plants and easiest for me to care for. Not only that but the added benefit of providing more oxygen around our home

🤣bat guano. I always think of Ace Ventura.

Thanks so much! And cup of coffee? I think I know what you mean lol Also the tetrasperma is doing great in this soil mixture. I will give updates soon but overall I would still prefer the Florida over it 😅😆

@@Plantdudejames Would love to see updates! Tetrasperma and Florida are fairly similar to me, style of growth, speed and even shape a little bit. Florida looks like it has huge fenestrations, even though they are not fenestrations at all 😄

I actually stopped rotating it for a while now and it’s concentrated more on one side. This plant actually had two main stems that are growing on both sides of the pole. It’s about time to extend it soon 😅

🤣🤣

So close lol

Thanks bro! Glad you enjoy it. Can’t wait to hear about the move one day and see your venture into house plants. I’ll definitely help you out if you have any questions or concerns. 😁🤙🏽🤙🏽

@@gizrich happy to hear all around! Glad you were able to find my channel And even more so make your day. Thanks so much!

@@RobAndrews18 thank you so much for helping my channel grow!

@@marvinbrock960 I totally agree! That’s why the soil mixture in this pot contains a regular cactus succulent soil mix that has small perlite and added orchid bark. No peat moss. Only thing moss is the sphagnum used in the pole 🤙🏽🤙🏽

@@tammyanderson7847 yes, sorry this isn’t a full instructional, but you do wet the moss before placing it in the wire mesh to make it easier to work with.

@@Plantdudejames no problem thanks so much for the response!!!

@@tammyanderson7847 no worries! Glad to help. That’s what I’m here for 👊🏽

@@jenluhan1866 i’m not going to sit here and assume what you’re doing wrong but I’m sure you’re doing a great job! I don’t have many videos yet, but I hope I can influence you in some way or another to do an even better job. 👊🏽✊🏽🪴🪴🪴 thanks for watching 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

$20 is not bad at all and for what your doing to the plant, those are all great options to keep it maintained. These plants are very hardy and can grow with little to no added nutrients, so aquarium water is perfect along with the soil mixture. As long as those roots don’t rot everything will be fine! Great job 👊🏽

@@Plantdudejames i found out now after obsessively watching plant videos for these past 2 weeks it is better to use a chunkier well draining mix for philodendrons so i will get some mollys and repot to that eventually, until then ill avoid overwatering. since my first comment i bought both a 2.5 foot wide golden crocodile and a white princess oops! between those and the pothos and alocasia i already had a corner of my room is slowly turning into a jungle 🤣I am struggling with fungus gnats so im hoping to switch my potting mix soon, i've just been squishing them with my finger or clapping them out of the air on sight and it seems like im keeping the numbers down

What up bro! Alright, So plants would still require some sort of light but as far as recommendations, the ones that can tolerate the least amount of light, I'd recommend either a ZZ plant or even a snake plant. If she needs, they do make small grow lights that would help in her favor! Hope this helps!

I’ll pass out holding it in before I get any exposure lol 😮‍💨😂

@@comiche1880 glad I was able to help! Hope all is well 👏🏽

@@nicklatimer961 got you brother! Will be coming up with more and more videos over time. Appreciate the sub and pitching in! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

@@sakuthelittlecherry1174 no problem! Glad you could benefit from this and enjoyed the video!

@@MegalomaniaHere honestly just depends on the kind of plant that you’re putting on it. I like that the plastic moss poles have a longer watering interval although I do enjoy the diy pole for the fact that you can allow a plant to climb up not just straight but also around it especially for long aerial roots or just for plants that you want to fill up on like a pothos.

@@Plantdudejames Thanks for the reply, I went for a DIY poles and it's a bit much to water, but my humidity levels are up! 😅

@@michaelyerushalmi6924 therapy is what it is 🤣

What you saw there was dried cataphyll but I did peel that back and found smaller amounts of mealy bugs under it and I did decide to check and spray down the rest of the plant! She’s doing great and hasn’t had anything since then 😅

@@Plantdudejames That's great to hear! 😁 No sneaky mealy bugs on that plant
