this is one of my all time favorite videos of yours!!
It is so amazing that you’re so fearless when chopping up you’re plants. After watching your videos I’ll walk around looking for who needs a good haircut. I can see my plants trying to hide out of the corner of my eye lol. Seriously though it’s genuinely inspiring, and has helped me make some hard decisions about plant care. Thanks Fern 💛💚🧡
Haha! Awww, I’m so glad it’s been helpful! Happy chopping :)
I love how full it looks now, so so gorgeous 😍
Thank you!! 😊 can't wait for it to grow even more! x
I've been neglecting my first successful houseplant and watching this to give me courage 😂 it's just a golden pothos but I've had it for so long that the original bits look like crap and all the new growth from where I've cut looks amazing and varigated. So I'm just gonna say screw it and chop it up. I didn't know much about plants when I first got it so it's so random and leggy and in way too big of a pot. I have multiple cuttings off this plant that look so much better and are way bigger. Anyway thanks so much for the inspo/confidence 🌷💫💓 you inspired me to finally make my own moss poles and I repotted one of my monsteras with it and it's giving me a new leaf already. I'm so excited. I want to try to put my pothos up a moss pole with these chopped bits. I don't even care if pothos is basic, I just love how fast and easy it grows and I want to see how huge I can get it now that I know more about plants in general, thanks to sweet folks like you!!! 🪴🌟🌈
excited to watch your verrucosum keep growing! A challenge I've been having with mine is that it constantly produces extrafloral nectaries, even though there aren't any pests (I treat it regularly with doktor doom, and there is no pest damage). I find that wherever the extrafloral nectary droplets are, the leaf gets slightly discoloured if I dont clean them off :/ and those dots then look like pest damage even though its not hahah
Im having the same issue with my paraiso verde and billietie i thougth it was pest lol
EFNs are the worst and as silly/dramatic as it may sound it's actually starting to lessen my absolute love of philodendrons. So many of mine are doing this, my gloriosum, verrucosum, my silver sword. I will clean and wipe them off and I swear the next day they're back. And like you said they end up making the plant look like it has pests even when you're sure they don't 😭 It's so frustrating!
I just missed the premiere because i was watching your old videos hahahahaha you’re my company when i get ready for work and when im heading to bed. always having you on repeat fern! you made me fall back in love w my plants 🥺 thank u for all your videos
awwww bless you! thanks so much for watching 🥰
Thanks Fern! I learned a lot from this so I feel more confident as we get ready to air layer our "Vera" for the first time.👍
That plant is absolutely beautiful!!! 💚😻💚
Ogm, gorgeous 😍!! Can't wait to see how it grows in. Thx for the video Fern! ❤️
Thank you for sharing your beautiful plants with us and your knowledge. Your videos are the best. Much love to you and little Pearl ❤
I really appreciate it! Thanks for joining the premiere :)
Your Philodendrons look so beautiful! Thank you so much for all the videos!!!
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching ☺️
So educational! Thank you very much. You look great with natural hair. I also liked the orange hair a lot.
She is looking super lush and gorgeous😍 so excited to see the other philodendrons!
Thank you so much 💚🦋
What a great surprise to have made two new plants to be potted in today!
Right!! I was so happy with the roots ☺️
You are all stressed out and drinking Dr. P .., and Olive just chillin behind you and taking a nap 😉😁
Love the progress updates!! 💚
Thank you so much!! 😊
Holy cow! I guess the air layering worked a little too well haha. It looks so nice and full now!
Just a thought, you could paint or marker the zip ties black!! Some red would still show but it would help. I totally get aesthetics. It still looks gorgeous tho! Thank you for your content doll. Have always loved your vibe.
Looks GREAT in that terracotta! great video
Thank you! 🤗 terracotta takes everything from 0-100 real fast haha
I recently got a verrucosum and I’m so excited to watch it grow as large and full as yours! Also your hair is looking lovely :)
Saw it on your recent video!! So cute 😍 and thank you so much x
@@wildfern thanks so much for watching! 💕
Brb going to buy one now 😭😍.
I always thought they looked strange in pictures but yours looks amazing in this video!
i couldn't watch this on on my phone, but i am super glad i could watch it on my laptop
OMG! That verrucosum is so beautiful and those roots 👀🤍😍
can't wait to see it growwww 😍
obsessed with this plant!
I've just rotted two verrucosum nodes out!! I'm working on killing my 3rd! I'm so jealous! Yours looks great! Hopefully this 3rd time is a charm! Fingers 🤞! Great video !! Thank you!
AH just missed the premier! One of my favourite plants of yours Fern! I hope mine looks half as beautiful some day!
Thank youuuuu 🥺🥺🥺
SUCH a gorgeous plant!! And I love the dedication of fastening the zip ties orally 🤣
It looks gorgeous 💚 I just did the same with mine, yours looks so full and gorgeous 🌿🌿🌿 I wish I had your patience with doing up the home made moss poles I just buy coir poles, I just know I wouldn't water the Spaghnum ones enough 🙈 A suggestion for the red cable ties.. if you had any of your black paint left from your Halloween pots maybe to could use a little paint brush and paint the red tips black? Not necessary of course but if the red bugs you it might work to blend them in! 🤗
just got a smaller verrocosum and i can't wait for it to grow out!! 🤩 the shop i bought it from had these GIANT verrocosum but i have space issues rn and also like to see a plant grow out! :) good luck with yours.
Something that might make extending the moss pole easier is using barrettes or little hair clips as clamps to clip the two together while you attach the zip ties! I have never tried this but the thought popped in my head when I watched the struggle and thought I would share! 🤗
I love your videos hun you're doing a great job and you're so informative
Fern get yourself a new handheld shower head they’re such a lifesaver !!! They’re like $30 on Amazon and super easy to install!Also for the colorful zip ties you could paint them with black paint or nail polish or even a marker, that way you don’t necessarily have to train it as much!
Okay I really need one lol. And great idea!! Gonna do that I think
I accidentally keep hitting the thumps down🙈 Loved the video and your verrucosum is looking gorgeous 😍
Omg I keep doing that too, they must have changed the layout on mobile or something because I swear the thumbs down is where the thumbs up used to be lol
Wow! Good job!
That damage you where talking about in the beginning, like the damaged unfurling leafs could just be the adjustment to lower humidity, bc it looks very similar to how my adensonii leafs where when they got too close to the radiator lol, but better safe than sorry 🙃
I had the same problem. One of the leaves unfurled and was damaged due to humidity adjustment. The 2nd time when the new leaf was unfurling I typically sprayed it with water and it unfolded pretty nicely
Those roots on the larger cutting were impressive 😮 makes me think I should give air layering a try too 😅
Also I cannot believe how big the new leaves are 😍
Right!! I did not expect the roots to be that developed lol. Thanks so much for watching x
Thank you for posting yet another video, you're on a roll lately ☺️
Your videos are among my favorites🥰
I can't believe the maturity of the plant! I just watched your moss pole video a week ago and made a pole for my Verru. So far its loving it! Hope it looks like yours soon. Also, good luck with the thrips. They're little demons lol
Mine grows super fast so hopefully yours will too! 😃
Great job. Such a pretty plant. 💚🌿🪴💚
Thank you! 🤗
Hey Fern, hope you are doing great!!! 💚Ohh wow!!! This plant is soooo freaking cool ,I totally love it, I hope to own one someday soon 🙏 I liked how tall it was but I like it too now because it is fuller and just amazing!!! 🥰😍💚 many kisses to you and Olive xxx
Thank you so much!! I hope you get one 😍
@@wildfern 💚💚💚
OMG arhat plant is spectacular!!
Thank you so much Janet!
Fern can u make a video about the flora nectarine that plants get when u have a chance
Good morning fern💖💖💖
Good morning 🥰
Fern that definitely looks like Thrip damage. I've been dealing with them for the past 6 months or so, and have really empathized with your struggle with them. I was so upset when I got them as I thoroughly clean, spray preventatives, and quarantine new plants for 4-6 weeks before adding them to my collection. All my plants seemed fine, until they weren't. I've tried organic sprays, no neem oil as it irritates my lungs, harsher pesticides, nothing seems to work. Captain Jack's seems to slow them down but even regularly spraying it for weeks to kill off any new larvae didn't seem to work. I ultimately went with beneficial insects. A couple months ago I got an order of Green Lacewing larvae who went to town destroying Thrips and Fungus Gnats. I immediately saw less Thrips and Gnats. The Lacewings matured and I had some adults flying around my room but I don't think I had enough to breed and produce a bunch more. A couple weeks ago I got an order of Lacewing eggs and adult Minute Pirate Beetles. The nice thing about the beetles is they're fully grown and will fly to new plants to eat pest bugs, Lacewing larvae don't fly so they can't move very far from the plant they're on. I've seen a huge decline in pests since this past order. I'm seeing no damage on new leaves on my plants. My Philodendron Burle Marx finally put out a normal leaf with no damage, my Queen Anthurium put out a new leaf, and there's a bunch of others that are putting out nice, healthy growth. The Pirate Beetles live for a while and will breed readily with decent humidity and warmth but I do plan to place another order in 2-3 weeks. They're the only thing I've found to help, like I've witnessed them on my plants with Thrip larvae, adults, and fungus gnats in their proboscis that they were eating. And they're SO tiny, like an adult Pirate Beetle is like 1/4 the size a grain of rice. They're so small that if one accidentally lands on you, you don't even feel them on you. Its SO nice. I know this video isn't new so Idk if you'll see this comment, but you should definitely looking into beneficial predatory insects!!!
Ahh thanks so much!! I am definitely curious to try them out 👀 It's amazing to hear that you've had such a great experience with them. It must feel so good to have some relief from the terror of thrips!!
Thanks Fern really enjoyed this 💚
Thanks so much Krista 🥰
Interesting to know that the root system isn’t big on your motherplant as well. I did try to water propagate one of my verrucosum but it rotted after months of waiting for roots to develop. Therefore air layering will also be my next trial. And Perlite air-layering will be interesting, thx for this idea in the live-chat!! Thank you for this video.
Yes I was thinking about trying perlite after I spent 20+ minutes just trying to remove the sphagnum hahah. And yeah I am wondering if verru's just have more dainty root systems or if it's just my plant lol? Not sure, but am glad the roots are healthy at least.
It’s beautiful!!
I was surprised to see you didn’t insert a bamboo stick into the join of the 2 poles. Maybe you can wiggle a long one in after the fact? I think I saw that on Sydney plant guy. I love your beautiful plants and it is so relaxing the tender way you carefully work with the plant. Thank you!
I'm so desperate for a verrucosum! yours is stunning. I've heard they're serious pest magnets though. I have a splendid, which has never had any pest pressures (touch wood) is verrucosum as bad as people make them out to be?
I just ordered a verrocosum from Alberta to Ontario this past week because I fell in love with yours! Sadly I don’t think it’s going to make it 😫
sending love to you fern! hope you’re doing lovely
Thank you! You too!
I have a love/hate relationship with my verrucosum. I used to be lush and beautiful, but then I repotted it and it completely freaked out and dropped all its leaves 🙄 now it’s just a sad, sad mess. But mine also had really delicate, thin roots. They’re known for being divas too. It’s like they think they’re calatheas or something!
Awwww yeah they can be 😩
She's beautiful💚💚💚💚I really hate mine got hit with spider mites. So having to start over😞
Hi Fern, have you ever considered trying beneficial bugs to fight off the thrips?
Dang plant parent goals 💚
🥰
Gorgeous plant!!!! Those cuttings were probably worth $200 or more American!! But you’ve made an absolutely beautiful plant more so!!!
She is getting huge!! So, beautiful!! 😍
"You gotta do what you gotta do" 😂 I always use my teeth tightening zip ties 😂
Bahahah
Beautiful one of my favs tfs 💚✨
I love your videos. every. single. one
Thank you 😩💓
She’s beautiful 🧿🖤🧿
Something I noticed is when you put a plant from moss into soil, it needs to be watered a bit more frequently. Potting it with a plant already existing in soil may cause overwatering for that second plant, and at least in my experience, root rot. I would be careful, maybe you have a better technique for getting recently moss-grown plants into soil with other plants though!
we love you!
💚💚💚
Your hair look soo healthy im thinking to shave of my hair too
yessss it's so nice to grow it out healthfully!
Oh she’s just gorgeous. I’ve been on the fence about getting one but this is making me drool a little. 🤤 she pretty!!
Oh what if you put the Velcro tape over the zip tie? Would that hide them a little bit? 🤷🏻♀️
Ohhh yeah maybe that would help 👀
Hey Fern! Thanks for the great content! Quick question- What brand of sphagnum do you use?
SuperMoss
your verrucosum looks slightly like it could be fertiliser burn too and you've just changed fertilisers? Just a thought. I find they look a little "melty" with black edges/spots with fertilser burn.
Otherwise it looks amazing though, love watching your progress with the moss poles just as mine are beginning to realise they're there and get that aerial root growth going :)
oooo it is possible 👀 let's hope it's that and not thrips lol 😩
@@wildfern my pothos are usually the first to show fertiliser burn, if you've fertilised a pothos at the same time as it I would check it over and see if anything similar is going on might help rule out the thrips hopefully!
Ohh my god soooooooooo cool I love it
Thank you!
what’s the wire you use in your moss poles? and i’ve seen some people use a PVC pipe in the middle of their moss poles do you recommend that or no?
also do you just water the moss pole when you water the plant? or do you spray it in between
My splendid keeps growing so fast that I can't chop where I air layered. I've added another layer of sphag to it at this point and the root ball is giant 🤦🏼♀️ I'm just scared!
PLEASE TRY BENEFICIAL BUGS! I had thrips for soooo long, and kept up with treatments every few days. It's so much time and never really fully works. I tried swirski mites and thripex, I did it 3 times an haven't seen any thrips in MONTHS. Since the first round, no thrips. Let them do the work for you! Natural predators for the WIN!
Please forgive me if you mentioned it, I didn’t catch it - is this beauty living in ambient room humidity? I heard you say you took it out of your cabinet. I’ve been dying for one but everyone discouraged me from trying to grow it just on a shelf.
Edit to add - I see it’s living on the floor! If you can grow it in Canada, I bet I can too. Do you do anything special to support it’s humidity needs or anything?
Hey! Yes I recently took it out of the cabinet. I’m not doing anything special for humidity, but I am lucky to have my regular household humidity at about 50%.
inspiring me to chop my verru!! shes just too tallll
Curious if you ever found out if the leaves had pests. Mine are doing the same on my serpens
I couldn’t find any, but I treated it anyways so I am keeping an eye out.
I wonder if you can use black nail polish to hide the zip ties
Good idea!
yayyy fern!!
😃😃😃
@@wildfern fern i wanted to let you know there is another method for watering moss poles with water bottles by putting it on the top of the pole and letting it empty out into the moss it works really well! my plants were able to roof into the pole in a week!!
👁️ Waiting for my Maggi noodles and watching your beautiful self. 💋 It's a beautiful day! Kisses for Olive. 🐶💚
💚💚💚
Someone probably sent you thrips 😂plant me Ashley to be specific hahaha
Have you tried spinosad for the thrips?
No I don't now if I can get that in Canada :( never seen it
Would I help to put a little wooden stick that was half in one moss pole and half in the other to keep it together better?
Maybe, I guess you would have to put it in the original one from the start though.
@@wildfern that’s true! Either way this video has made me want to get my hands on a verrucosum. So well done, even more plants tk buy 😂
@@Jacob-ep7te heheh you need one!
Morning!
Good morninggggg 🌹
Hi,
Hope the subhastum uploading soon. I've propagation mine once, but it's a failure. They all deaths 😣
Oh noooo!
It says I can’t watch the video
Do you have a Black Texta or Paint Pen ?
no but some people were suggesting black nail polish so I might try that!
The thrips Trauma is real.
Seriously
your plant looks awesome but i think you should have tranferred it to a bigger pot
Most of the roots are in the moss pole.
💚💚
Somehow I can’t watch your Video😞 it doesn’t want to open it just says:
No stream
Tap to try again
Oh nooooo :( I have no idea why that would be
@@wildfern today I tried again and it works. Great video😊

This make up frightens me lol
ARRGH....THRIPS ARE THE WORST. I hope it isnt.
Right 😩 thank you!
