I should NOT have done this to my plant

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ม.ค. 2023
- I've kept this Pilea Peperomioides (Chinese Money Plant) as a houseplant for 4 years. I thought I could cut this plant and propagate it to make it a better looking indoor plant. I guess I was wrong.

the disclaimer at the beginning “i want to be perfectly clear, i have absolutely no idea what I’m doing” 🤣 this is how i feel when trying to do anything with my plants lol
🤭
That’s how I feel about nearly everything I do.
@@heatheranddenerale THIS, this is the more accurate statement
I love that you've said a few times that it's okay to be done with a plant if you're not enjoying it or whatnot. I've got a plant I kind of hate, but I've kept it alive and thriving the longest, so I've felt guilty about pitching it. That stupid thing is going away this weekend.
If it’s doing well I’m sure you can find someone who wants it more than you! Better for it to bring someone else joy than to compost it in my opinion.
@@nattcattt Totally agree with you! There are many people who can't afford to buy houseplants and I am sure they would love a big healthy plant to enjoy and brighten their day.
I have a bop I hate. Giving to to my mom when she moves to FL. It's just now getting happy which makes me angry.
@@thatonedog819 how the plant doing? Ngl tho, you're bringing it to a better home, better humidity and heat, maybe mom will have an easier time with it. It just want you to fight for it, like a diva 😂
Aww sorry this one didn't work out :( Thank you for taking the time to document your experience and share the video with us - so often the "what not to do" gets ignored and everyone is left to make the same experiment and the same mistake... from the perspective of someone still learning (like me!) a video like this can be so much more valuable than only sharing success! I always look forward to your uploads
Thanks for watching!
Such a breath of fresh air to watch someone REAL
Absolutely agree. This video was a complete joy to watch
Seriously, dude you make some of the best plant content out there. Funny and helpful.
I totally thought you were going to take a swigg of the silicone plant water cup. Hahhaha.
I would never try that on camera 🙃
It took me entirely too long to realize Ashley had a bird on her shoulder 😂
Haha miss Ella
I literally didn’t see it. Had to rewatch. Thank you. Lol
Thanks, important to remember that some plants just don't look right when they get huge, but you can always propagate and resign yourself to a smaller but healthy looking plant. Great to see this - had no idea mother of thousands got that big and then look so terrible.😀
They're so awful 🤣
Have one of those plants, had no idea it would get that tall. New goal.
I mean it was definitely an anti gravity chamber 😂❤
I feel you. I've only ever successfully gotten my pups to propagate, not a full grown pilea cutting. The upside down strat was a good idea, honestly, pretty creative! Sorry It didn't work out :(
What!!!???! The collab I didn't even know I needed but so happy you provided!! 😁
Glad you liked it !
You are the freaking best. The amount of knowledge you distill in such a small amount of time while also being incredibly comedic and relatable is legit amazing.
Thank you! 🌱
Excuse me, ms. Isnt it common knowledge that every stem needs roots if you wanna replace it in another pot.
@Mika Hist it doesn't. Some plant stems can root directly in soil with no roots. They then grow roots. Some plants need nodes to ensure rooting. You can propogate plants from cuttings, etc, and they'll eventually grow roots. Others won't. Depends on the type of plant, among other factors.
Interesting information. Kind of explains a lot of why some of my cuttings have failed in the past.
I was recently wondering why anyone would bother to airlayer an easily rooted plant, but it makes sense when you think of how large the cutting to propagate may be.
I wonder if that would have worked out better here.
I think air layering is something worth exploring!
This was really different in a good way. I had to let go some plants that I held on to all last year. Come 2023 I was over it.
Thank you for not being afraid of sharing what not to do. I did the exact same thing 2 month ago. At least now I know why it didn’t work 😅 keep up the good work. And thanks Ashley for the detailed explanation, will follow for sure 👍
I like your videos ‘cause there’s little irrelevant chit-chat…you make your point and move on. Keep it up!
Glad you like them!
Your videos are always so refreshing
You should go for it.
I love the crossover! Yay for Canadian gardening influencer collaborations!
I follow you both. Thanks for the collab! Keep that up. In fact, I like seeing you bring in other people sometimes - they’re fun and it gives your videos a nice flow. Great editing too.
I appreciate that! Always fun do do these collabs when they make a better video.
LMAO THIS IS MY JIMMY RIGGING WITH SO MANY OF MY PLANTS!!!
I have wooden dowels and wooden food stakes scotch taped and packing taped around pots. I grow with LECA.
Also I LOVE Ashley’s channel.
I am obsessed with both your channels, I made the same moss poles you recommended and they work amazing!!!
That is awesome!
There was a time I would have cried over that.... still, it would make me sad, but sorta got used to the plants work how they want.... not how I want them to. Thanks so much for sharing....and I loved your gravity attempt ...sorry it didn't work. ❤
Oh my gosh, this is hysterical. What planter lover has not gone through this at one time or another? 💓💓💓
You just helped me made a decision with a Crown of Thorns plant that I've had for ages and is not looking good. I'm going to propagate some stems and get rid of the rest. I needed to hear that it's ok to do that. Thanks. I love your videos.
Omg my beautiful, gorgeous, lush, and straight stemmed plant suffered transplant shock and hasn’t recovered. It’s my fault for being too curious and experimental with dividing the babies 🤦🏻♀️ but that’s how we learn!! Lol
I clicked this video so fast! I got a 4” money plant 2 months ago. You’re always hilarious and informative. 😂🌱💯
Thank 👏 you 👏 for supporting plant ownership that doesn't involve saving a dying plant or rescuing it at any cost or whatever. They're just plants. We love them and they live and die. And some we toss because we cannot be bothered. And I support this.
I really really needed a boost; thank you for coming through!
Always!
Been wondering what to do with my Chinese Money Plant, it is all droopy. So now I know how to propagate and renew it. Thanks!
Lol. It was soooo funny. I LOL when I saw the bald root. Thanks for the laugh & info.
Glad you enjoyed it! 🥲
That 90 degree turn when you introduced Mr Instagram... wild! It really did look ok from the front.
He's was such a trickster
Wow! Your plant is beautiful 🥹 we’ve all made HORRIBLE MISTAKES 🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ Thank you Ashley😣 Your explanation was clear(I learned something new😆) Sorry Lee😫😖😩
Love your vid's. I had a pilea that grew to about 2.5 feet and toppled over in the night. I tried to save it, but no luck. It has tons of healthy pups that I've been propagating and giving to friends since my now pilea mother plant is now a bush.
My nightmare 😭
you guys are so scientific and fun at the same time🪴.
Thanks! Ashley has so much knowledge.
Nooooooooo! Ouch! That must hurt! I tried growng, had for the years but it was stubborn so it didn't do much. Your peperomia was absolutely gorgeous! So sorry for your experience. It's live and learn, trial and error, right? Thanks for sharing! Dee, LI, NY💚
Absolutely. Thanks for the kind words.
Omg i wish my pepperonis piles looked liked that! I’ve had it for three years and it looks very sad. I water and feed as I had to but it needs a lot of help!
It's honestly just good lighting, turning the plant, and consistent watering.
Lol.. I just saw this. I lop mine and then root it in water in a glass - right way up. I grow mine in leca. But it also works for soil as well. They grow new roots within a few weeks and can be repotted as you need.
LOL I love when he does these collabs! You are awesome!
Thanks!
Informative! Thank you 🪴🙃
You have my favorite plant videos on TH-cam by far. Especially appreciate the pilea content since one of my second generation plants flopped over and I've been debating what to do with it.
Wow. Thanks, that means a lot.
Your videos are so amazing! You deserve more attention :)
Thanks. I just like teaching people. The attention going to my already over inflated ego is just a bonus 🤣
Anti-gravity chamber 🤣. You are seriously so funny. I love that you make gardening fun. 🪴❤️
Hi from Wales 🏴. Don’t know what it is but you and Girl with the dogs ( nothing to do with plants!) both make me want to move to Canada.
@@glen4075 come on over!
Thank you for sharing and i am sorry that your pilea didnt make it, but from your idea i had managed to fix my pilea.
I’m sorry your plant didn’t make it in the end. Thank you so much for sharing your process
Please, I was so scared you were about to take a sip! 😂 just a good ol' smell test.
Thanks for keeping it real! So many channels only show perfection. Not reality.
My heart hurts for all your chopping. Your incredible
I glad you turned it upside down! Was chanting “turn it upside down!!” Would have been so sad had you not tried.
Love Ashley's channel. And I so enjoy yours. 😉
She's the best!
I've rooted cuttings from mine and had tiny plant babies.
Truly so insightful especially for people serious about rooting plants.
"but only from the right angle"
💜😊 Loved that
Awwww I’m sorry about your beautiful plant! Thank you for sharing your experience so that we don’t make the same mistake. By the way, I’m struggling with my three pileas; for the life of me I can’t stop them from losing leaves constantly. They’re small and more barren than when I bought them. But I’m still trying to figure it out and have not given up.
Thank you for the post! I’m always delighted when I see a new one posted by you.
Thank you so much! Pileas can be tricky!
OMG I love you. Your disclaimer er and tape bit is 100% me.
New subscriber here, 👋.
Great video!
Thanks for sharing and a smile!
Thanks for subbing!
Wow, this video popped up in my recommended feed just in time as I was considering chopping down my Pilea to get rid of its legginess. Thanks for sharing your experience. I think I'll just embrace my plant's unique shape. And I've just subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to catching up on all your other videos now.
Thanks for subscribing!
This was a great video.
Thanks CrystalRenee!
i did the same to my pilea :( mine wasn't as large as yours. the little troopers live on! fab videos by the way :)
You had me cracking up 😂 with this one
I have done this many times. Take it as a lesson learned
I have a much smaller one that had gone wonky with a bare stem about half way down. I was able to chop & prop in water. The original stem in the pot now has babies all over it.
My MoT tipped over and I didn't notice until it grew a foot at a 90* angle 😅 it lives like that now lol
“Mr. Instagram” 😂 I laughed so hard.
It looks beautiful, lean and all. Mine is so tiny and won't grow.
Sorry about your plant but wow I love your videos, editing, sense of humor. Keep it up!
ok soooo i was LITERALLY about to do the same thing with a ficus elastica. But for me, im just trying to re-root to put in LECA. So i think im STILL going to take on this venture, but im going to trim off SOME of the soil roots and leave some and hope for the best ahahaha.
Great feature video Lee! And I did not know Pilea could grow so large indoors! I am encouraged to buy one next spring now, thanks to you! Love your channel!
Aww, I'm sorry. I'm glad you're ok with it, though.
Can we have an update on the SOH soon?
The update is I threw it in the garage.
@@KillThisPlant Oh no! 🤣
I needed to hear that. I felt so guilty for falling out of love with all of the little plants and having some die in the process.
I've done this and lost a few plants as well, you are not alone!
Great vids as always.
Ashleys great i enjoy all her videos neat seeing her in your videos too !! Sorry about what happen to your plant but thats the fun in keeping plants is that you always keep learning new things right 😅💚🌱🌿🇨🇦
This was a great video! Thank you for sharing!
I can't get enough of your content. I have been here so many times with my piles and misery loves company 🤗. Thanks for being you and bringing smiles to my morning!! 💕🌱
Maybe u should’ve used an airlayer with checking it regularly:)
Great video, i had to research how to propagate Pileas after i overwattered mine, she was dropping leaves very fast and i think it had root rot. I cut around 7 cm of the top and rooted in water succesfully.
I also cut and propagated a Begonia Amphioxus this time for aesthetic reasons, i think i underwattered that one and it also lost a lot of leaves and was looking horrible. The cutting i kept is doing great and i will probably try a self wattering pot with stratum this time :)
I find it quite nice to restart a plant that is either struggling or looking crappy.
You should just root that top cutting in sphagnum moss - works better than almost any other method in my experience! For Peperomia and pileas, and basically all other plants which can be grown from cuttings! Lol. Everything else is too dense I've found and it rots away.
Brooo I didn't even notice the bird until some solid time🤦🏻♀️😂
Wow, that's such an impressive Pilea specimen. Too bad the top part that broke off didn't survive.
Thank you for this video! I honestly would have done the same things you did in the video. Now I don't waste my time and be disappointed lol.
I thought about trying the antigravity mechanic right before you showed that you thought of it yourself lol. Bummer that it didn't work. Science is just unfair!
I think it could be viable if I tried it from the beginning. Maybe next time.
My much smaller pilea cutting didn't root either
My small ones usually do ok in just soil with a bit of rooting powder.
Some cut flowers (like hydrangeas, for example) will bounce back if you use hot or warm water bc it can push through the dense sap in the stem that would otherwise prevent it from absorbing water up through the stem to the blooms. Could this have been a possible approach for your pilea pep.?
Thank you for this! I’m constantly amazed by the content that you release and the way that you incorporate less than stellar results and use them as learning opportunities. I wish more content creators were courageous and generous enough to do this. You’re consistently entertaining and educational. Many thanks!!!
Thank you!
Absolutely love this!! You clearly are human 😊. I can learn from you!
Thank you! 😊
I usually learn best from my mistakes🙄BUT i don't like killing my green babies...🌱👀 so thank you for sharing your mistakes so we don't have to😊
You are a total sweetheart 💕
Beautiful plant 🪴 ❤❤
I adore your content!
thanks so much!
I did the same thing to my dracaena..I still miss it 😓
love this! Gardening in Canada is a great channel!! and the act of gardening in Canada is great too xD
She's the best!
If love an update on what it looks like now :))
You can foliar feed cuttings 🤷♀️
☎️ calling Ashley about this right now 😅
Great info and channel, thank you
I love your channel ❤❤. I am new to all of this, so would you please identify the common names of the plants you are working with?
OMG - I almost did the same thing because someone on YT said this was the best way to propagate a too tall pilea 😭yikes and 😂
TH-camrs. Can't trust em! 🤣
my name is lee, too, and i like plants. subscribed.
Wow look at us. Like two Lees in a pod.
I've never understood the look of Pilea's being staked upright, it just looks bizarre to me. Mine is massive and full, flowing over the side of the pot with pups all filling up the top. Each to their own though, we all like different things.
absolutely.
The lower leaves on my pilea keep dropping off I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The plant is healthy and growing and shooting pups but I don't want it to get a bald trunk
Bald trunk is coming. Consistent watering, light and temperature can keep them longer but if you have seasons that's when it gets worse.
@Kill This Plant unfortunately I also live in Toronto so the seasons are harsh.
I enjoyed watching😊🙏🙏
So: WHAT was the "huge" mistake, Lee? Not turning the Pepperomia often enough? Not taming it sooner? Or, what??
Had this unwatched video in mind when I finally got around to trimming my flourishing Pepperomia this morning. I put the three clippings in water until I get around to potting. How long do you think this will take? I have not previously been successful at propagating anything in water... 😖
"gravity? ok but what if he turned it upside down?!"
45 seconds later:
"oh"
Great video. 👍
