@@thenaturecompany same here.. I have been collecting so many types for awhile .. I would love to live somewhere warmer where I could grow them outside
Can you use screen material, like what is in a window or a door? It’s flexible and rough too.. I didn’t know what I was doing and had an airplant that produced seeds and I put them inside a small container with a clear lid, I placed paper towel on the bottom, placed seeds on top , and lightly sprinkled it with water, put the lid on, and placed them under a grow light, and they did germinate really well , but after awhile they died.. I would love to find a good method.. I heard of people using Velcro and also pieces of dishwashing sponge..
yes that screen will probably work very well . Good air movement is one of the most essential parts , probably why the ones in the jar died after a while .. you could perhaps start them that way and then move them out if you find that easier .
@@thenaturecompanyI have been trying different materials recently… I just now tried stretching a piece of panty hose over a clean nacho Belgrande container lid😂 but it allows it to dry good before misting again.. I don’t know… Trial and error I guess..
I was lucky to stumble upon this video. So now I won't throw away the flower stalk after it has dried out. Plus I already have the fine mesh to lay them on. 🥲
@@ProgressiveDiscussions I’m still learning myself, trial and error.. I had one that produced seeds and I put them in a container with paper towel on the bottom, and lightly sprinkled them with water, then closed it with a clear lid on top under grow lights.. they germinated well but died afterwards… I have heard of people using Velcro, pieces of dishwashing sponge, and pantyhose… Right now I’m trying a piece of screen (from a window screen) on top of paper towel and misting with water every so often .. I am wondering though if pieces of bark or mulch would be good to try to germinate them on because they grow on trees in the wild
@@ProgressiveDiscussions I think it’s good to let them dry out after spraying, before spraying again, because in the wild where they grow, it rains a lot but the hot sun dried them soon after.. they probably like a lot of heat too
@@stephaniebach__12-24 air plants are easily prone to rot just like succulents. So using a piece of screen mesh for pantyhose without the paper towel to maximize air circulation is a great idea. These are plants are supposed to be able to dry out within 4 hours.
Omg ..i have native florida airplants blooming now ...will do this to the seeds ...thanks ❤❤❤❤❤
it is so much fun to see them all start to grow
Merci beaucoup 🎉
avec plaisir, je suis heureux que vous en ayez tiré profit 💕
The airplant you cut a stalk off of is beautiful 💐

Do you have a recipe you would be willing to share for the water you are spraying?
this is a link to the garlic one i use th-cam.com/video/nf2cnzLEgrE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xKrH5hha630gYizz
It's too rough. It's better to put a net directly under the air pineapple and use the net to catch the seeds.
yes

Yes don’t throw the seeds away!
@@stephaniebach__12-24 how often do you spray the seeds? I have some seeds of the Vernicosa purple giant air plant.
