  • My Sansevieria Moonshine was really starting to spread out in its pot and I decided it was time to divide this snake plant. I'll be gifting one of them to my mom this Mother's Day. Snake Plants are so easy to propagate by separation. I put a little bit of cinnamon on the cut wound and this will help it heal. I'll wait to water them at least 7 days, if not more, so I can reduce the risk of root rot.

    Hi Carmen, I seem to have a lot to say about sansevierias! I was never a fan of sansevierias but have seen some pretty beautiful and different plants so decided to give them a second glance. My experience with 'snake plants' was a really sad looking plant that was my husband's as a child, it looked terrible for years! (I'm talking 30 years in MY care, I secretly hoped it would dry up...) I did my research and that plant recovered and I have since acquired several new varieties. I found a moonshine on clearance at Lowes this winter that had a beat up mother plant but 2 very nice looking pups starting out so took a chance. SUCCESS! The babies are growing beautifully and I can't wait for them to be big enough to transplant into their own pots one day. I have them in a West window and they are growing nicely. Yeah for moonshine, I so like the color and shape of the leaves! Great video, THANKS!

    Nice to share the love, sharing is caring🥰your mom will love her new moonshine Carmen. I did not realize that watering right after a repot can cause root rot and that waiting for a week or so is best, thank you so much for that. I’ve been guilty of it 🤭

    • @carmenwhitehead
      @carmenwhitehead  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I use that rule for my succulent type plants Elizabeth. Especially if I've cut roots like I did with this one. But, a regular foliage plant that had no root damage, you can water.

    Hi Carmen it’s me Dorothy again........my senserveria Whale’s fin plant has a pup the height of the mother....Carmen I am worried in the center of my whale’s fin plant it is wrinkled..I always use my moisture tool and it says moist it only dry on top of soil but when I go deeper it is moist I am confused..and the big leaf is not flat. It sort of look a little wavy.....the mother plant is 16 inches high and the pup is 13 inches high I don’t want to lose it u know they are so expensive according to the height....I am so blessed a friend that is the manager of this nursery gave it to me as a friendship gift...Carmen I was so overwhelmed that I got tearful......I have had so many people tell me that I am a very pleasant person. And every time I call or talk to anyone it’s always the right time I don’t try to be funny but my personality with people always make them feel better when I talk to people they always feel better....And that makes me feel like I am to always cheer them up .its just my personality...thank for taking the time to listen and respond back too me....Oh Carmen I get my happiness and joy knowing that I helped someone laugh instead of being SAD.......thank u again Carmen I will feel better about my Whale’s fin when u answer..... I love your curly hair.....so beautiful.......God bless u and all my UTube plant friends ❤️❤️😇❤️❤️

      It depends on the season. In the balcony during Summer, every 5-7 days. In Winter every 2 weeks if it's not raining. Inside plants for Summer are every 7-10 days, Winter every 2-3 weeks. Other factors are the type of pot they're in (ceramic or terra cotta).

      During the Spring and Summer (when it's hotter) I will probably water every 2 weeks if inside, every 10 days if outside. During Fall & Winter about every 3-4 weeks. BUT, I always use a moisture meter with all my Sansevierias to ensure they are completely dry. Then I do water thoroughly until drains out. Hope this helps.
