I could have told you all about Phil O'Dendron years ago. He still owes me a 100 squid from that pub crawl in Dublin 2019.
Lol
😂
Nothing in the world could prepare me for 2:03
😂🤣😂🤣😂 He's a nutter
😅
Put your soil mix in the back of the pole against the solid plastic, and a good layer of moss in the front against the open part. Best of both worlds.
2:04 most outta pocket shot I’ve ever seen
Enter Philodendron Black Cardinal which is neither and is described as self-heading, low growing, clumping or basal. I hate mine with a fiery passion (the phrase "dog's dinner" comes to mind)
I'd say there's technically 3 types of philodendron: Climbers, Crawlers and self heading ones. A philodendron ring of fire/ philodendron congo red/ green for example doesn't need a pole because it grows very compact and round. But its not a crawler.
And If you count the ones that crawl and climb, then there´s four types ^^
Yeah I have a couple that I wouldn't put on a pole, but are not crawlers. I have 2 huge philodendron that are beautiful - prince of orange and moonlight
@@thatonedog819 Yeah, there are also the bushy ones. But what I meant where philodendron that crawl in their early stages of life and then start to climb. You can keep them either way, but they will develop more beautiful, big leaves when they can climb.
Also “self-heading” philodendron! Like the Birkin!
All self headers are actually very slow climbers
Make a smaller hole in the bottle and it will empty slower and saturate the moss better without running down the outside. I make a small hole at the other end too or it will stop draining. Better yet, get a plastic drinking cup that has a bottom size that will sit on the top of the moss pole without falling. Poke a hole in that, then use your watering can to fill it up. No trips to the sink required. This is my favorite way to water my poles!
for anyone new to moss poles, here is a tip, you've probably noticed how the moss dries out way quicker than the soil in the pot. The soil needs to be really chunky, like really really chunky. You can play around with the ingredients and proportions but the mix I use is 1 part pumice, 2/3 part pine bark, 1 part coco chips, and 1/2 part large perlite. I also use a little over 1/4 of a litre per 2 feet of moss pole so not too much water stays in the pot. Pin me so everyone knows
2:04 Does Mrs. Sheffield know about this?!?! LOL
😅
you with that hose really cracked me up! lol
😂
I actually have two crawlers on moss poles and they’re doing great. I do find though that the crawlers I put on moss poles don’t seem to grow as fast as they do when I allow them to crawl. I’m just fine with that though because room is an issue.
Hello Mr Sheffield!
For crawlers I recommend the long pots from lechuza w two sections of inner pot. That way when the plant crawls to the end you just chop it in the middle and then swap out the old section with new medium and have it continue growing without repotting.
I just bought my first three philedendrons yeaterday. This was perfect timing
Great video. You are a crack up, taking care of plants is a joy and a bit of a circus at times. Thanks for the laughs and knowledge.
I just learned of this (2 types of philodendrons ) myself about 6 months ago. I put moss and fern bark in my poles. Straight moss just gets hydrophobic when dry. (That was the first pole) The fern bark is spendy but I don’t use a whole lot. The bark I purchased is very fine and falls out of the pole, so the moss keeps it in. Again, thanks for the laughs and eye rolls😂
Thank you 😊
You can always rely on Mr Sheffield for an entertaining video 😂
Great video as always, thank you. We have probably all been there. Climbers get moss poles, crawlers get long pots, and self-heading types get a suitable pot. The latter are easiest to pot but those types can take up a lot of room so I tend more towards climbers. Some of the crawlers take up a lot of space, too, but who can say no to a beautiful gloriosum.
I saw a woman having 2 pots. One little without holes for the moss pole. Filled with argile/perlie. And she would put into the big pot where the climbing plant stand (with soil).
Good morning Mr Sheffield!! I enjoy your videos and the wonderful suggestions!!! Thank you so much!!
Thanks for watching 😁
Great video. Sometimes I get lucky about plants and where they go in my house. Fingers crossed- for both of us on future. I know you will get all of this sorted out soon.
Great and informative video, thank you 👍🏻
Huh, just s thought on the leaf issue: in nature, plants mostly get water from above over their leaves, but in households, we usually water via the pot. Maybe misting replicates rain and helps lubricate the leaves, so it's not humidity necessarily, it's lack of rain? 🤷♂️
I've started growing a philo outside, slow growing due to our usual lack of heat* but so far haven't had the leaf issues as much as inside 🤔 but not big sample size.
* We're in a heat wave ATM... 80F degrees today.... That's hot for our area and many don't have AC so the heat advisories are actually warranted 🤣, even tho this is normal summer temp in other areas of the US.
THIS! You have to be the rain
You could probably MAKE it grow up the pole, but perhaps there's a better option. Adding a humidifier during winter months and watering using super diluted Miracle Grow once a week has prevented the new leaf issue. Try sifting the soil mix for the moss poles so none of the media is larger than the holes in the grid. Mixing in a bit of coco coir should fix hydrophobic moss too, worked for me.
genius
Hiya, didn't read other comments but re watering poles with bottles.
Ideal is to have a wide mouth bottle with two holes (in&out air) - then also if water trickles through too quickly you need to compact the medium that it's trickling onto (dense up the moss, add a bit of moss on top of your mix) - if still running through quick then medium in moss pole is not dense/water holding enough to soak it all up.
All the best ❤
I have a small philodendron Dean McDowell? And its growing way slower than others and the leaves take forever to unfurl and they are miss formed when they do. Shes heading for the bin i tell you.
Vielen Dank für die Info.. Grüße aus Mainz
You are a riot! Thanks for the info!
Any time!
I agree, moss poles can be a pain....I do mostly LECA. My climbers are put on moss poles, but I do NOT keep them hydrated, so they dont have any aerial roots. I basically use the moss poles to support the plant. They seem to do ok.....call me lazy, but it works for me.
you can climb crawling plants, it’s not as nice but they do it fine. I have a summer glory and mamei climbing. The summer glory is THRIVING, she’s sizing up so fast.
I had a mamei and the gloriosum and didn't know they were crawlers. The mamei was one of the unhappiest plants I ever had. I never could get it to grow
2:04 😂
I got my 3 moss poles a boot out of my house 5 years ago.No more moss poles! I find it's too much trouble and pain to keep up the watering and extensions as well. I also don't find them aesthetically pleasing to the eyes to look at either.
See? I thought they'd all climb up a pole!❤😊
Again, what a coincidence. I took the plunge today to fill my plastic D pole after months of procrastination. I have an amazing tip concerning soil. Filling the entire thing with moss is costly and moss dries super fast. What I did is add 4 wicking ropes to the top and let then dangle into the pot. I then added a thin layer of moss at the front. Filling the back with soil of your choosing. I have coco coir/perlite pre mixed. Soil doesnt go everywhere. Best of both worlds.
Well these are diff types of this plant one is a climber one is a crawler the one that is a clawed has a sii one it’s same also 0:57
Great video Rich but I only have the plain heart leaf philodendron which is beautiful to me. Will it climb? I hope so! Peace.
Where are your new plants sir?
Why do some plants need moss/soil pole, while others do just fine with wooden planks/metal trellises?
The difference is that the moss pole, the roots grow into the pole as the moss holds moisture whereas you can grow them up wood as well as metal you will just get aerial roots and not a complete root system. I'm sure I probably over explained 😅
6:55 🤣
Always bringing the amazing nuggets of knowledge. I do have a question? Is a Thai constellation a crawler or climber? with Monsteras it' hard to tell.
All Monstera are climbers that crawl until they find a tree or structure to climb.
I thought it was a climber
All monstera are climbers!
However, Thai con, sometimes albo and aurea do have internodal space so tight they can be left crawling ❤
@@smajliiicka Thank you! I am trying to get my Thai to climb but I am seeing that is going to be hard.
@@smajliiicka Yes, I watched the Sydney plant guy this morning and he said it would take much longer for the plant to grow on a pole than crawl. That was after I exhausted myself trying to put that plant on a pole LOL. He saved me from the insanity. I have no idea people to it unless they just stick moss and wrap plastic around it. My goodness! I don't have an aurea yet so we shall see.
Good video he does, is it?
Any tips for a burl marx ?

I just put my Mini Monstera (Rhaphidophora tetrasperma) on coco coir poles. Of course there are no directions for use..but I did drench them before I attached the plant to the poles. I guess I would mist them occasionally. What is your thoughts on coco coir poles?
They do a job 👍
I’ve just bought a calathea, should I remove it from the carrier bag straight into the bin? 😬
Give it a week 😅
What are those background purple plants in his background???
Some kind of rex begonia
Which mosspoles are you using?
Plastic cages you can get from amazon
In 0:35 I saw fungus gnats flying 😢 u couldn't kill them, right? 😢 Me too 😔
They’re always there 😩
What if you mix moss with soil?
🤷🏻♂️
help me ---> Colocasia esculenta plant need mose pole?
No. Colocasia or alocasia aren't climbers
@@user-hl1eo1hz7y thanks
Will algae not grow in plastic moss pole?
You might get a bit. I’ve not noticed lots of
Ok thanks for the reply
Lol careful with those nibbles, cooties is a real thing. 😂
Were you just trying eat a micans 😂
😅
Kate Moss was not a fan of the rolling stones
What is your favorite breakfast recipe?
