    And my boyfriend always says that it’s gonna be a pain moving because I have 92 plants but after watching this I don’t feel so bad. 😅

    Watching this vlog makes me realise I need to put a limit on the number of plants I buy in case I ever have to move house 😂

    I’m moving right now...including my plant babies, so thanks for the inspiration. If you can do 500, I can make 50. Right? 😉

    So much work! Would be fun to see time-lapse video of Nick running around putting all these plants in place in his new home xD

    That has to be the most scary part of moving, I'm stressed just seeing all that.

    I worked at McDonald's for 15 years. Every time I had to move, I'd grab as many boxes from there as I could. I found out that the fry boxes, egg boxes, and happy meal toy boxes were the best. The egg boxes have handles

    • @franniecamden
      @franniecamden 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes egg boxes are the best for moving!

    • @sonyawalker-mcshan5710
      @sonyawalker-mcshan5710 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes. Those along with banana and liquor store boxes are the best.

  • @milenataylor2
    @milenataylor2 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Wow. I don’t think I realized you had THAT MANY plants until I saw a bunch in boxes and so much still out. Good luck. Can’t wait for updates.

  • @TheOneAndOnlyRRR
    @TheOneAndOnlyRRR 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I feel you! Moving my plants was one of the worst parts of moving. I had a small backyard nursery and my personal collection. In retrospect, I should have rented a small truck and sold off more. Lesson learned. Thanks for sharing your process. ✌

  • @heatheranddenerale
    @heatheranddenerale 3 ปีที่แล้ว +33

    I'm in trouble when I move again. I collect plants, books and pottery.

    • @m.s.g1890
      @m.s.g1890 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well packed books will at least be fine, but plants and pottery....oof.

    • @tescherman3048
      @tescherman3048 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @Heather DJ Apart from major furniture, your collection has to be the heaviest things you can own. Just hire a gaggle of young muscular guys to help you through the trauma. :) Good luck to you!

  • @christinekobzeff
    @christinekobzeff 3 ปีที่แล้ว +32

    Well done, sir! This was really helpful. I think we’re moving this year too. No idea how many plant babies we have but between our Aroids and cactus collection I’m a little bit terrified of trying to move this uh... situation. I better start preparing now. 🌱🌵😂

  • @LisaIsabelle
    @LisaIsabelle 3 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I'm officially personally involved in the well being of these +400 plants and I cannot wait for them to be at your new apartment because this is stressing me out waaaaay more than it should. 😂

  • @samueldickinsonn
    @samueldickinsonn 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Cant wait to watch you set them up in your new place 🌿

  • @bethcollier3789
    @bethcollier3789 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Congratulations on your new place. Thank you for doing what appears to be a monumental task, and you don't even look overwhelmed. Instead there is a calmness tinged with a sense of adventure, which is encouraging and I don't even have half the amount of plant-babies you have. May it all go well.

  • @joycekuhlman4450
    @joycekuhlman4450 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    That’s a lot of work packing up all your plant family. Just breathe drink a lot of water and a celebration drink at end of day, lol

  • @VickyHafler
    @VickyHafler 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Looks like fun...
    Moving in of itself is such a job.
    I have decided I’m never moving and my kids can fight over the plants when I’m gone.
    More like.... I don’t want it you take it! 😂

  • @CorpseBride64
    @CorpseBride64 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I love watching you and wish you good luck on your big move! That being said, I would never let my collection get this big. It just takes so much care and time. I don't know how you do it. I have about 50 indoor plants and 2 veggie gardens and I am always tending. While it is super rewarding, it is a lot of work.

    • @fuuhouhouji
      @fuuhouhouji 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In my experience is the veggie garden that is making feel like you are always looking up for your plants. They take much more management that the indoor ones (unless your indoor collection has very "moody" plants) I personally avoid high maintainance plants for my indoor collection. The strawberries and the tomatoes attracts enough pest by themselves that I'm always fighthing something 😅

  • @begoniasarawak
    @begoniasarawak 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I noticed you have a few begonias in cloches. Can you do a video talking about how to care for a begonia in spag moss in a cloche? I've never owned a begonia before, but i finally found one I LOVE, but I think she might be out of my abilities to care for (like needing to be in spag moss and in a cloche). Any info would be greatly appreciated! Feel free to break it way down like you're talking to a child because I literally don't even know how I would water the plant if it's in spag moss in a cloche. Thanks!!

  • @Ellpaige-v5s
    @Ellpaige-v5s 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    People clowning over your use of Chick-fil-A boxes like you went there and paid for them 🙄 You’re repurposing trash, please relax y’all? So incredible to see your moving process! I moved for the first time last summer and it was only twenty minutes away, so I just packed the cab of my truck with as many plants as possible and drove the slowest route possible! Always an adventure.

  • @shelbyhalligan712
    @shelbyhalligan712 3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    Exactly my thought...how are you going to move all those babies?? I won't move specifically because I'm worried about my plants haha!

  • @HarryBeerHouse
    @HarryBeerHouse 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    OMG I feel you Nick! I recently moved out to a new studio and my collection of plants are not as much as yours. Probably close to 100 and it took me 10 trips with pick up truck within 16 kilometers. Back and forth, no more moving out!

    Hi Nick! That was a lot of packing of plants! I know you're already in your new place, but I hope you will at least share with us how you were able to get everything moved, like did you have to go very far, did you have friends that helped, did you have to hire someone to move everything, etc.? Thank you so much for sharing! Hi to Muffin, too!

  • @sandreawhite7534
    @sandreawhite7534 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I can’t wait to see how you arrange them in your new apartment. I have close to 500 but most are on the front and back patios because my cats won’t leave them alone. I would dread a move but I’d do it because I’ve had these for years and l just love them.

    OMG! I am watching this and thinking you have so much more work to do and exhausted just thinking about it. But you'll get it done and the new apartment is going to be fabulous! I only have a fraction of the number of plants you have and if I ever moved I would be more concerned about the plants then my furniture...so I'm never moving...LOL!

    Oh my goodness, I've already been thinking how I want to move my plants by myself when I move. Thanks for the little tips and box ideas, I am always so scared to move a plant's leaves a tiny bit because I'm just paranoid to hurt them 😅

  • @marieclark4609
    @marieclark4609 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I think that's a great way to do your plants two boxes and a crates I like the crates a lot that's a lot to move but I know once you get it done you'll be happy👏👏🤟🤟🥰😍🤩🧡💛

    @kathleenmurphy2379 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I knowit is probably too late to help you move but I was thinking as you showed your vining plant to keep it from getting tangled with the plants beside it in the Box you could put it into those plastic bags that they put your things in the store. that would separate it from the other plants still leave air because it's opened at the top and then you could just rip the bag off when you get to your new place. Maybe it'll help somebody else! take care

    @TheJoaneD 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Sorry but I do not see the need for so many. I have a green thumb and I do love them but .. once a plant reaches a certain fullness, I sell it and replace it with a different variety, looking for new challenges. Now exploring small indoor trees ( tangerine tree, lemon tree, palm, 6 foot high ficus) , flowering plants (geraniums, tournesol, hoya) and tomato plant under a grow light. A happy dozen of well maintained is sufficient to enjoy for me.
