      butter will eventually go rancid too, especially all spread out like that. May also attract insects, and as stated in this video youre just gunna have oily dusty plants that still need to be cleaned. I do enjoy some good debunking videos though, so they can keep making crap for now i guess

    So, channels like 5 Minute and Blossom are run by the same 'content farming' organization. They have /dozens/ of channels, all centered around these videos based in catchiness and entertainment rather than knowledge, as well as getting away with a bunch of TH-cam ToS violations, but that's another beast all together.
    While the 'hacks' in this video were merely inconsistent or slightly wrong at worst, their cooking 'hacks' have sometimes spread dangerously wrong information that's gotten people seriously hurt, so a lot of us are trying to get them held accountable for this type of content.

    Personally when sprouting pepper seeds, i wrap them in folded up kitchen paper, moisten em, then stick em to the inside of a clean jam jar, and close it. No risk of it ever drying out, and it's easy to check for mold and sprouts without opening the jar.

Same for early sprouts: remove the paper from the jar, unfold it, take the seedlings out and transplanr them, then fold the piece back and put it back in place :) and you can be really space efficient too. On jar can easily fit a couple dozen seeeds

    best growing hacks I know: set up a worm bin, then you have two options.
    1) toss the seeds you are interesting in growing, make sure to be careful if you need to shift the bedding so you don't break the seedling (if the seeds fall deeper in over time you will probably have stretched seedling). I've gotten tomatoes, cantaloupes, mandarins, avocados, and mangos sprout fairly hassle free this way.
    2) good for several tubers (onion, garlic, spring onion, beets, potatoes) toss them in and they will start to grow roots and new leaves. I've had quartered spring onions and beets regrow, as well as halved potatoes and onions, or slightly mushed garlic. In all cases they were old, dry and on the process of going bad so they were intended as food for the worms.
    Don't worry about having to get them out quickly so the worms don't get at them, the worms aren't interested on live roots and plants. The main potential issue are stretched seedlings.

    We've been duped, he's been planning on turning this into a channel with covers/parody songs this whole time.
    Edit: Now that I'm deeper in the video. I've been propagating more succulents than we have space for. Both laying them flat and that tip of cutting a slit in a piece of plastic film... I find more unreliable than just sticking my props directly into succulent mix and giving them a soak a day or two later. That plastic film thing is super entertaining cause you get to watch the roots form, so I'm not saying it, or laying them flat and misting are terrible.

They set it in a windowsill and forgot about it. They normally use dirt/mix trays and mist, and they were surprised at the success they had in the water bottle once they remembered it was there. I have never tried it, but it sounds like if it’s even moderately successful, it would be a better method for me than something I have to keep a closer eye on.

    Cotton gloves work great to "dust" plant leaves. Very easy and kids like to help.

    Haha! My mom used to have a huge houseplant, back in the 80s…she used to rub Mayo onto the leaves…no clue why she did it, but that plant didn’t seem to mind! Lol 😂 it always confused me though! Actually asked her about it recently and she doesn’t even remember what plant it was 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

    Bro, i love you more everyday. I just recently gained the hobby into gardening, i've been gaining some experience from you. Seeing you play "organically" learning how to cover a variant was awesome. I'm also getting into more and more covers however I play classical guitar, but singing is more enjoyable. Be safe, enjoy Salud!

    The dark liquid that they put the pepper seeds in is probably some kind of herbal tea, like dandelion root or marigold or something. I've read about soaking pepper seeds in herbal tea to help with germination before but have never tried it.
