The nails, screws thing is a thing to help turn alkaline soil to acidic for acidic, loving plant and shrubs. Old gardening technique. I’ve used them to turn my hydrangea bush flowers from blue to a purple pink color. People didn’t have an array of potions 🧪 we have today on the store shelves in the old days. I think that was a fun find 😊 and surely you’ll never forget a screw that big falling out of the base of your plant 🪴 😂
I love how real you are the messes you make the places you repot the spoon to make holes those are things that most of us real people do but no one sees. That’s what separates you from the rest. Love your content and your realness and your silliness is definitely a bonus. Stay true sista 😊
Hi Harli, very good tips, thank you. I give all of my plants a cocktail of calcium magnesium and super thrive. Clean all the leaves and shower the ones in self watering. On the first of June, I cut the flower spikes on my orchids and repot them if needed. Spring is my favorite season. 😍 ❤
Hello from Maryland!! Have to say, your hair/nails are very pretty☺️. I'm pretty much done prepping my plants for spring/summer. Soon as we started getting extra daylight I ordered more soil and pre-measured fertilizer singles from Amazon. Most of my plants simply needed topping off. Most of my new plants had to be repotted. I love playing in dirt. There's literally not a day or evening I'm not watering something.
Please do a video on your nail and hand care post-plant work. How do you keep your nails painted and get dirt off from under your fingertips? Thanks :)
Plant prices have plummeted and most of the TH-camrs that were in it for money have left but Harley is the only one that you can tell really loves plants. I will tell everybody follow her give her likes view her videos. She’s been doing it for years and she has not changed you have to love Harley. She’s the only TH-camr that has not stopped putting up videos about plants life in general so you can tell she really is a plant lover. She’s so awesome. She’s not fake what you see is what you get her her husband and for being real and keeping it real.
I have a 75 gal. watering trough I keep 15 or so gold fish in. I use the fish water (diluted) for my plant fertilizer. It`s free and organic and works really well. Your videos always get me off my butt and inspired to get busy with my plant buddies! Thank you!
I have already started to see the mealy bugs in my collection with the plants I have close to the windows. So definatly taking this weekend and week to make sure all my plants are clean and to do some more plant provention
Ive become such a huge fan of yours. You are one of my favorite plant TH-camrs ever! Youre so fun to turn on and hang out with and you actually provide helpful information and tips. I love seeing your chickens too!
Oh gosh Harli, thanks for all of those tips on getting our plants ready for spring, I have also done that with a spoon to get the soil not so hardened so that my plants will get good drinks of water when watered. I am also happy about the crazy bugs that are finally going away, I have been dealing with mealy bugs and they are finally dead and my plants are much happier and I am not losing anymore because of those bugs. I also have a ponytail palm that is struggling a bit and hopefully she will become more happy because I have really liked her for a long time. You picked some really cute pots for those plants you repotted, I have been doing that kind of plant care for this past week and am so excited for spring and my plants seem to be getting more happy. Thanks so much for this great video with a lot of good tips that I have loved seeing and also love watching your great videos. Have a beautiful and blessed rest of your day, sending love and hugs, bye!! 😄🥰👋👍🙏💜💜💖💕
Oh my gosh that’s so funny! I watch all of ferns videos but haven’t gotten to the last upload 😂 extra excited to watch now! Haha thank you for stopping by my channel
Couldn’t agree more about spring being the time to enjoying the fruits of our labor! Thanks to your genius idea of giving my peace lillies a lil sip of my left over drip coffee, they are blooming for the first time in 3 years! Thank you 💌
I agree these need repotting, but with MUCH larger pots. I grow many of the plants I see here in pots many times larger. My 'Thai Constellation' has mammoth leaves about to hit my ceiling, for one example. You stuck that euphorbia in a terribly small pot. I grow a wide range of in that genus. Specifically, my "Thai Constellation' pot is 21" wide by 21" tall. If plants look puny and sick, as many do that I'm seeing, try giving them an adequate pot. The Abutilon needed a pot at least twice the size you chose. From the over 70 year old retired nursery owner...give this a try and you might be simply shocked by the response. Also provide a lot of light. Happy growing! I watch you because you're entertaining and fun, but I wish you had plants that looked a bit more robust. It is not that complicated in the final analysis.
A bit off topic Harli but I'm lovin' your nail polish and that ring, so so pretty! is there a story behind it? AS for your prep for spring, thanks for the tips esp about the regular watering sign that a plant needs repotting 🫡 Also that screw in your root ball....whaaaaaa?! That's crazy...Ive never heard of using it for more iron, but the weight idea is probs more likely. However it could just be that it was in a drum of soil and was accidently scooped in 🫤😬
I really expanded my plant collection last summer so this is my first spring with most of my plants. I've done a couple plant divisions already and found that the plant shock made me feel like I was worrying over a new plant. (syngonium and prayer plant). I moved my pearls and jade further from the window because it has burned a little with the increased light. Most of plants are requiring more frequent watering now also. I'm really having to keep a closer eye on plants with the changing season! Thanks for your tips and hope to see a thrifting video. You're so creative with your thrift finds!!
Another great video. You hair color looks great. You never cease to amaze me Harli. I have to prepare a spot when I’m re-potting, get my boot tray, material, broom, garbage container just to begin. You? Let’s just cop a squat on this carpet, and let’s use this white fluffy fur foot stool as a table 😂
Hi Harli! I know you have some cool water propagation videos, but could you make a video about moving a plant from soil to water? I have a special monstera that’s struggling and I want to move it from soil to water to try to get it healthier! Thanks:)
Hey so I’ve been watching all your videos one after another and you have such great information. The one thing I’d like to see is exactly where you cut different plants for propagating. I’m really new to 5he idea of propagation and don’t want to do it wrong and although you have lots of videos on the subject I can’t find any that show the exact location of cuts. Thanks much!
Hello, just want to say that I love your videos, you are awesome❤ Also, maybe you know, I have in some pots some yellow balls in the soil ( it is not fertilizer) that does not affect the plant, I do not know what this is and how can I get rid of this😢
If I've had a plant in the same pot for a couple of years, should I change the soil? She looks happy but I wonder about the quality of the soil after so long.
I would be careful about watering your Adenia glauca too much. Mine goes dormant in the winter and I don't water much until I see a hint of leaves. As long as the stem and base are firm (not squishy) it should be fine until it decides to grow again.
Can you stick the dark pot from gigantium into the larger white one temporarily? It could help stability and give you time to decide if you like the aesthetic
My adenia looks just like yours 😂 I noticed that mine’s more happy when it’s wet, so I keep it in a self watering pot and it helps a lot. I was gone for several weeks tho so it’s mad at me. It doesn’t really act like a caudex at all lol.
I had a big desert rose I overwatered, I watered it twice in my care over months and the whole caudex went to mush, so sad Looks like you put 2 cupfuls of water into that no drainage thomsonii? Wouldn’t that fill 1/2 the container with water? Seemed excessive, but I’m no expert for sure
I wish I could find plants stuff at thrift stores, I don’t have any luck thrifting… I have better luck going to estate sales or garage sales. But yes… aerating the soil! I tend to forget to do that! Thanks for the tips! The thrifting extravaganza would be fabulous! Take us with you!!!
There are some plants, and I remember my Aunt's Hydrangeas as one. You can put iron spikes or copper rods in the ground and into the rootball to change the flower colours. My Aunt's driveway was lined with them, and they were each different and some a mix of colours. When I re-pot and run out of saucers, or use an odd-shaped pot. To catch drainage water I temporarily use large lids I save for just that reason. There is always some time when I use up all the saucers I have. Then have to find something or try to get two (or more) pots to share. This can cause more issues from pots falling to one plant going dry while the other is still damp, or sucking up all the extra water. I save lids from everything, even coffee creamer tubs, cat treat tubs, and even smaller ones from peanut butter or similar jars. They can all come in handy at least temporarily.
Did your adenia glauca have leaves at one point? I googled what it looks like, and it looked pretty familiar. Very cute plant when it gets leaves, I hope yours is happier now.

I would definitely chose the white instead of the dark for that gorgeous plant but that’s just me 🤷🏻♀️
100% agree
Your thrift videos are how I found your channel please do more whenever!
Same

I've always loved your casual and authentic vibes. Now re-watching all your previous videos. More like bingeing 😅 A subscriber of 3 years 😊
Thank you so much for the support 🥹🫶

Some good tips and I agree, spring is the best time of the year! The white pot looked great with that plant.
The giant scew was probably placed in with the plant for iron deficiency. I've read about it but first time seeing it.
I like the white planter with the variegated giganteum and we need all the thrifting videos! PLEASE🙏🏻 🫶🏻

I LOVE wild fern, plantsbymellissa, aloha plant life, they all are so passionate and they feel like a new era of planty tubers
also the UK girlies good growing and the jungle haven
Becca da la plants, firefly in the room, really big plant, are some other real good youtubers, although they^ said some of my faves as well!!!
I have a 75 gal. watering trough I keep 15 or so gold fish in. I use the fish water (diluted) for my plant fertilizer. It`s free and organic and works really well. Your videos always get me off my butt and inspired to get busy with my plant buddies! Thank you!
That screw was crazy!!!!!🤪
I love Spring new growth in my plants 😀🇨🇦
The best feeling
I have already started to see the mealy bugs in my collection with the plants I have close to the windows. So definatly taking this weekend and week to make sure all my plants are clean and to do some more plant provention
Thank you 😊. The unmade bed! Totally relatable 😅
completely & totally off subject, but i love your nail color!! Do you remember the name/brand!?❤
Hey! It’s ‘Lace to the Alter’ in the essie gel couture line
Ive become such a huge fan of yours. You are one of my favorite plant TH-camrs ever! Youre so fun to turn on and hang out with and you actually provide helpful information and tips. I love seeing your chickens too!
Totally agree, springtime is the most wonderful time of the year!
Yay! It’s spring and I’m back to the planty tubes. Always loving to watch your videos to get motivated for the spring season.
Your thrifting videos and repots videos are my favourites!
Springtime IS the most wonderful time of the year! Huzzah!
I can’t wait to see you repot your ficus elastica. I have one that needs repotted but I’m nervous, I’ve heard they are finicky.. Is this true?
Yes I think so, but I just don’t mess with the roots much & they do much better that way!
Chop Stix are great for aerating your soil and for planting baby plants I liked the white pot thanks for the video
Not related to the video, but when do u list plants on ur online shop? I would like to buy plants from you sometime soon.
Spring over there ,👌
Your plants loving your care already,
The white planter is 👌
💚🌵🌿🍀💚

I only hope the screen keeps aphids and mealies out.
Your advice always saves me so much time ❤
I got your name from fern who watched your channel. She talked about you in her last video. I’m pretty sure I’m gonna like what you have to show.
Oh my gosh that’s so funny! I watch all of ferns videos but haven’t gotten to the last upload 😂 extra excited to watch now! Haha thank you for stopping by my channel
Let the plant keep the giant screw !!!
I’ll put it back 😁
Couldn’t agree more about spring being the time to enjoying the fruits of our labor! Thanks to your genius idea of giving my peace lillies a lil sip of my left over drip coffee, they are blooming for the first time in 3 years! Thank you 💌
I feel so bad when I let my plants get rootbound, but it is so satisfying to see😭

Yes, planty thrift tour please!!! Loved this video. Thanks for the aeration tip. Always forget to do it. PS your poor white, furry stool and rug 🤦🏻♀️

Hello, just want to say that I love your videos, you are awesome❤

you look amazing!! really liked the video, sending you kisses from brazil
My adenia looks just like yours 😂 I noticed that mine’s more happy when it’s wet, so I keep it in a self watering pot and it helps a lot. I was gone for several weeks tho so it’s mad at me. It doesn’t really act like a caudex at all lol.
I love the light-coloured planter for the variegated one! (can't remember the name oops)
I would hang the diascorea. It’s gonna attach to any other plants close buy. Its a vining plant with tendrils
..and apparently with or without water..😮 I can't swallow pills. 😢
Is the albutilon a Hoya? I had some years ago but none since I moved here to my current place.
the variegated giganteum would look so good the white planter!!
You look extra pretty today I like your hair and makeup and earrings 👍
I kept my Albutilon outdoors I’m at an 8 b here in northern Oregon.
Love your videos and may I say that you are absolutely gorgeous. 🥰🥰
Harli what is the nursery you love the one you got branches of wood from
That’s the weirdest thing ever found in the bottom of the pot.
I thought I was the only person who airates their plants! 😂
please take us thrifting with you!!!!!
What color flowers does the albutilon have.
Y I u could give the Albutilon a trim to help balance it out.
Can you do a potting soil mixture video ??
Maybe choice number 3, it fell in by accident
Light colored planter for the giganteum. 😏
Would love to see a thrift shopping trip!
And yes pls to thrifting videos!
I had a big desert rose I overwatered, I watered it twice in my care over months and the whole caudex went to mush, so sad
Looks like you put 2 cupfuls of water into that no drainage thomsonii? Wouldn’t that fill 1/2 the container with water? Seemed excessive, but I’m no expert for sure
My mix is super chunky & it’s a very thirsty plant when under high light
I like the white. All my pots are white.
Wow ur hair looks amazing!
Are you going to put your Albutulon outside when it warms up? They love being outside. It will bloom like crazy!
Yes definjtely!
Yes a shop along for thrifty plant stuff. I think of you as I thrift. I ask would"Harli use this?" And if it's a yes, I pick it up. ❤
Haha I love this! 😂🫶
I wish I could find plants stuff at thrift stores, I don’t have any luck thrifting… I have better luck going to estate sales or garage sales. But yes… aerating the soil! I tend to forget to do that! Thanks for the tips! The thrifting extravaganza would be fabulous! Take us with you!!!
I like number 2 option.
Hi . I really like the white pot .
Looks like i will be going to visit Plant & Grow Nursery it’s about an hour south from me. I am also looking for a lemon tree.
We must be neighbors then 🤭

Did your adenia glauca have leaves at one point? I googled what it looks like, and it looked pretty familiar. Very cute plant when it gets leaves, I hope yours is happier now.
You could just hear that spoon ripping threw those roots. I don't know about that
I promise it’s okay 😁
Is that a euphorbia?
How is your butterfly syngonium since the repot? I saw it on the windowsill and it looks pretty!
Think the white planter brings out the white in the leaves. Your jade plant is gorgeous!
The bolt or other rusted tools in a plant does work well. I use this in my outdoor plants. I'm in SoCal. Great video.
Are you saying "könnt gut werden" at 8:28?
Omg I’ve found a giant screw like that in a bag of orchid bark!
Walmart has some really cute and affordable pots right now in their outdoor section if you have one near you!
For the variegated plant I liked the darker planter for sure more than the white! Love all your tips and tricks
Light colored planter! Makes the variegation pop :)
I love the white
I love that plant and i would definitely put it white Planter Spring is my favorite time of the year !
I think the dark pot really sets off the variegation!!
Light!!!
🦋🦋🦋
Desert rose needs a bark base substrate
Very good to know! That plant isn’t a desert rose thiugh, it is an Adenia glauca. I will remember this tip if I ever get one 😁
I pot mine in a cactus mix, does great!
Loved your spring tips!! 🌸
Great tips! Thanks harli 🪴
I’d love a thrift video☺️
