- Hydrogen Peroxide is the perfect medicine for houseplants! The extra Oxygen in the Peroxide provides plant roots a boost of oxygen so they are able to absorb nutrients more quickly. It also can heal root rot & kill pests that can be harmful to indoor plants. I particularly love using Hydrogen Peroxide on my indoor plants to treat thrips because thrips are such a pain to get rid of! Houseplants are such a joy to keep & Hydrogen Peroxide can really aid in healing unhealthy plants. Yay!

The hardest pest to get rid of is my roommate. If I spray hydrogen peroxide on her I doubt she’ll stop trying to drown my plants
😆😂💀
Lmao oh noo
😂🤣😭
Ha, I have the same persistent bug! 😂
Oi vey
If you make a H2O2 mixture for future use, don’t put it in a clear container. There’s a reason it’s in an opaque brown bottle; it reacts with light to break down into H2O and O2. You’re spritzing expensive water instead of an inexpensive disinfectant.
Thanks for educating us !
good point sister!
if my vase is clear, how often should i change the water w/ hydrogen peroxide as I am putting it under growlight..
Bleach is the same way. Once hit with sunlight or mixed into a spray bottle for cleaning it is only going to keep it's sanitizing properties for 24hours. This is not only because of the exposure to sunlight, once it comes in contact with any organic compounds. Which is why they always say to clean any surface before sanitizing with bleach. Bleach also has an extremely short shelf life even before opening the bottle which makes bleach quite unreliable. Hydrogen peroxide also has the same problems. It begins to decompose before even opening the bottle. It decomposes slowly into water and elemental oxygen when exposed to light, and even more rapidly in the presence of organic or reactive compounds. But you can test hydrogen peroxides effectiveness by putting a little on skin and seeing if any bubbling occurs. If it does then your in luck. This is a very good subject I'm happy someone else has brought it up. This is why I no longer use bleach. In many cases it has already become inactive before you get it home from the store the shelf life is extremely short.
I saved my fiddle leaf fig from root rot by taking it out of the soil and spraying the cleaned roots with hydrogen peroxide, new clean soil and sterilized pot. worked brilliantly and now I have new leaves again!
How do you sterilize your pot?
@@lina6641 you can use hydrogen peroxide!
Just hydrogen peroxide or the mixture? I'm gaving a problem with my stromanthe and mealybugs. Just took it out of the nursery pot and it's mostly roots!!
I knew it..I cant see how hydrogen peroxide would work for root rot just from pouring from the top..taking plant out of soil n then use is a good idea
rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle and it kills them on contact they just sort of meltyou can spray mealybugs with rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle and it kills them on contact they just sort of disappear....
"This is my philodendron, and we had a disagreement about watering" 😂😂😂these conversations🤦🏾♀️😤😔👍🏾😏
Charlie Bazz I’ve had many 😂😭😭
😅
🙌🙌🙌
You should make a video all about the best soils, soil mixtures, and fertilizers to use for beginners 🌱😌
Jenn M yessssss
Wanna know too much about it
I'll add that to the 'to-film- list! Thanks for the video idea! (:
Who hates miracle gro? If miracle gro gave you problems... you got twitter.... shout it...#cancelmiraclegro
Yes!
I forgot to mention in the video that I am using 3% Hydrogen Peroxide
Can I use this on my orchids ?
Informative, thanks!
Is that 3% concentrated HP or 3% already with water in it?
You're really smart and pretty!!
Here I am using 91% 😂😂😂
What kind of soil and fertilizer would you suggest for house plants, please and thank you
I have a couple plants that desperately need this, and I desperately needed a tutorial! Thank you
Harli! I have had a plant that I frequently think about just giving up on and throwing out that I brought home after finding it at my work, abandoned, on a bookshelf behind a bunch of binders, in hopes to bring it back to life. It has struggled for months.. and like I said I’ve frequently thought of giving up on it. I watched this video last week and immediately watered it with hydrogen peroxide. I just noticed today that she has sprout a new leaf! I just had to say thank you, I would never have thought to do this 🤗💚
U should give it a pinch of worm castings or forest soil to innoculate it, it'll get healthy much more quickly than it would with just the microbes floating in the air. I put compost that included a field mouse the local cats left in my garden into my pothos when I reported, it got twice as big in a week.
Forest soil? You can buy it?
I’ve seen so many different ratios online for this, so I was always cautious and used a low ratio but it’s good to know that a higher ratio doesn’t damage the plants (as long as you’re not doing too frequently of course like you said) Great video, thanks! :)
Same!! did you use the 1:1 ratio to water the soil? ive been scared to do that to my plants im looking for a solution
I always spray hydrogen peroxide on My terracotta pots When they get that white cloudy mould, wipe it off After And it works amazing!
I love your videos so much, it feels like I’m hanging out with a friend. Thank you for everything you do
It's nice to see that I could use something around my house if my plants get sick. Thank you.
IT really helps ease a lot of stress about buying extra products for every single issue we can run across in keeping plants (: Thank you for watching
Nancy Plants yes even if you and you’re pets get sick also.
Zhäy Bae Blíss yr pets
Epsom Salts is really, really good too. :)
@@purpleflametarot39 how do you use Epsom salts?
I used a hydrogen peroxide drench to get rid of fungus gnats, but I used 4 to 1 water to HP. So it was much more diluted, but it still did the trick. Good to know you can use a stronger dilution to get rid of pests!
Free Range Diva and you just water like normal ? Or bottom water ?
So 4 cups of water and 1 of hp??
@@denicemendoza7615 yes, although it's best to use it right after you mix it so only mix as much as you know you'll use right away.
Additional tip for this great video: hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) rapidly breaks down into water (H2O) especially when exposed to light and when diluted. The disinfecting effect comes from the liberating of that oxygen, which leaves water. This so great in that it’s not toxic and leaves no toxic residue on surfaces, however, it also means that you must mix up these formulas right before using them, they don’t store for more than 24 hours, and I’d avoid using a clear glass container, too, as that contributes to rapid degradation.
For direct treatment of soil, not plants, I’m a fan of more sparing use with a sprayer stuck into the original dark brown container.
Julie James thank you! I was looking for someone to comment on this. I use the dark plastic container it come in and especially the one with the sprayer on it. Works perfectly
Could you provide more clarification? Are you saying you spray the soil with undiluted H2O2 to fight against infestations?
Ausy no, I dilute it, but I use one of the original brown containers in which to do it, and I only mix up what I’m going to use that day-generally less than 4 oz at a time, as any leftover will degrade into water.
@@juliejames6322 Oh, makes sense. Thanks!
@Julie James do you know if hair colour peroxide works for plants? I can’t easily get hold of hydrogen peroxide here. Thanks.
Just discovered spider mites. This is my first pest problem. I admit I panicked. This is clearly the best video (and I have watched MANY) on pests. Thank you so much!
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is commonly used for water treatment because of its oxidizing action and its breakdown decomposition into water and oxygen. ... The immediate effects were 82% decrease in sulfides and a 37.5% increase in dissolved oxygen.
Watched this the day you posted, and I've gotta say you had perfect timing on this for me. A lot of my plants were sick from fungus gnats and a crazy temp change that happened in my house. Watered my plants with a more diluted mix and 2 days later they are all looking better!! Thanks so much!!!
Amanda Marie hello! jw if the fungus gnats disappeared? also!! what is the more diluted mixture you used?? i’m a little nervous as i’ve seen multiple ratios when using HP, not sure which is most effective!
Yes plssss let us know Amanda
My plants are very sad from the temp change! Went away for Christmas (4-5 days) and had to turn the heating off in the house and my monstera is very sad looking. Did you find it helped for this?
Perfect timing if had some issues lately that I just cant shake em of
I love that you have a philodendron burle Marxx, I just got one and it's absolutely beautiful and I never see anyone with them, very underrated
Philodendron burle Marx is love !
HARLI! I just found out my crotons roots started rotting last night! Perfect timing and exactly why you’re my favorite!
Did your croton make it?
Yes I'd like to know too
I really like this vid! I think it makes total sense. I'm 45 and I've been gardening since I was a small child helping n the family garden. I've never used peroxide out of fear it would harm my plants. I've tried a few other things and been more than disappointed. I think I'll be finally trying this. Thank u young lady!
GIRLLLL. YO SKIN IS POPPING! Thanks for this advice! Greatly Appreciated Harli!
I did a rushed research on H2O2 for root rot and since it’s already 3% I used it straight on a purple passion plant and the next day it was dead 😭. Thanks for the 1:1 tip, I’ll be more careful next time!
Oh no!😭😭
What's the ratio
Oops!
I just started my collection, and it grew F A S T. I’m just now experiencing pests and sick plants (and i have no clue) and your videos have really helped me especially when i feel overwhelmed. Thank you!
Omggggggg I just tried this last night for one of my fiddle leaf did trees that was struggling and not even 24 hours later my leaves have perked back up. Thank you for this video
What was wrong and what did you do? How big is your plant?
What exactly did you do?
I did this to my orchid but I used 1 part hydrogen peroxide to 2 parts water (watch orchid girl on TH-cam) -- I bought the orchid on clearance with droopy leaves that just hung over the side of the pot. I removed all the decayed roots, soaked it in the solution for 24 hours and then drained it the next day. Within 2 days the plant is nice and perky again. The hydrogen peroxide neutralizes the soil so you will have to change out the soil because it will be sterile, but it also kills bugs eggs and stops root rot in its tracks.
I treat all my Echeveria succulents with a hydrogen peroxide rinse straight from the box store so I don’t bring pests in my home and to stop any root rot going on. But with my Echeverias I saturate the soil in the pot and let it drain out right away. When it’s completely dry again, then I transplant it into new soil.
My Pothos and ZZ plant both are looking very rough after I let my kids help water them (drown them) a couple times. I’m so glad I found this video! I just gave them both a peroxide bath and I really hope it helps them! Thank you 😊
Harli!!!!! I love you, you started my love/obsession for plants🌱 .
Love from Israel
I am so happy you have found joy in keeping plants! They have brought me such happiness & it means a lot that you were inspired by that as well. Thank you for watching
Thanks for talking on this topic. My beautiful indoor plant totally died because of that. I would find the branch barely intact and would pull out on touch. I kept losing without knowing the reason till my entire plant pot was bare. Then I saw fuzzy fungus on top of the soil. Wish knew it before.
Thank you so much! My Basil plant has been developing some of that mold stuff on the top. I changed out the soil, but it has recently come back. I will DEFINITELY be trying your hydrogen peroxide solution to combat that! Thanks for the helpful tips, Harli, I feel so educated after watching your videos!! :)
Could you do a video about different types of pests and what they look like and signs that your plant might be infested?
ever heard of google?
Eric M wow. I never thought of that. Glad I have someone like you to remind me of google ✌🏻 heaven forbid I give a video suggestion that might help several people
@@lizzieocker god forbid these answers are already all over the place and you just need to type that shit into google.. why do you ask someone to make a shit video for you about information that you can readily find... thats selfish.. like they are your personal videoographer. use your fkin brain you twat
@@ericm7994 Umm since you like to rage on people for no reason like your some kinda comment section authoritarian let me teach you some things that your cult hasn't yet how to properly adult and why you're wrong!
.
1. Who the fuck are you to talk to someone like that for asking a question?
2. She never said @Eric M So mind your business if anyone wants the opinion of an asshole they can fart.
3. You verbally attack a stranger that waa simply suggesting some content that is clearly a popular subject in the community and would benifit multiple people, including the content maker as it would be popular.(clearly not a selfish act so not only are you a dick but your also wrong)
4. Also it's common practice to suggest video content it let's makers know what other topics interest their current audience and opens the door for new fans.
5. She worded this as a question/request and wasn't rude. Wasn't like she demanded it as you imply. ( again you're wrong)
6. Based off multiple replies the content maker can speak for herself and I'd bet money doesn't want or need your help. (Assumptions are what assholes do)
7. Don't give advice you yourself didn't use. The topic of this video isn't new and exist on Google too so why are you hear. (Hypocrite much I bet you claim to be a God fearing Christian too)
8. You are disrespecting a Female be a man and show respect. This is someone's daughter/mother and based off the pic I would speculate she Is young possibly a minor. (Disrepectful, cowardly definitely screams I abuse those weaker than me to make myself feel powerful and strong and to compensate my many character flaws)Have you been rejected lately?
9. You immediately resorted to name calling which is a sure sign you lost the argument already otherwise why not stick to the subject. (Here's a L)
10. Maybe if you stopped following ridiculous conspiracy theories with no actual verifiable evidence to support the wild and easily disproven theories. That clearly are nothing more than political propaganda and religous dogma. You would possibly know how easy it is to communicate respectfully with out name calling, resorting to bullying tactics on people you don't know for no real reason is cowardly... What exactly did you think you would accomplish. Sadly cowards like you don't dare act this way in front of real men! Only privately or safely behind your keyboard. You look foolish, it's not to late to redeem yourself though you could admit you are not only outta line but also rude an without civility. Most of all your argument lacked merit to start with since not a single point was actually true. Being accountable and admitting you were wrong would show growth and maturity. An apology for being rude and disrespectful is warranted and may gain you some credibility as an adult and perhaps a small amount of dignity back. Hell google how to look like a internet douche canoe.
@@sherrylynch7339 im not reading that.. thanks bye felecia
My first time on this channel and first thought:
Wow what a beautiful woman !!
And, thank you for the quality plant health tip.
Thank you! About to try this on my beautiful Zebrina that appeared to have been overwatered when I got it home and after a few weeks has some moldy looking streaks on the stems and one new leaf that unrolled to reveal black mold on its edge. Crossing fingers for my velvety plant baby! 🌱🤞💗
Could you do another houseplant tour soon? Impressed by all your knowledge about plants!☺️
Can we get an update on that plant? I need to know how shes doing.
I totally need to do this for some of my succulents that I have been battling with mealy bugs. Thanks for sharing and you look beautiful☺👍❤.
This video came at a fortuitous time! My pilea and my zebra plant are looking sad, cant figure out what exactly is wrong with them all of a sudden! Thanks for the info Harli! And congrats to you and Ryan on little baby G! Love from Arizona!
The mold on my soil drives me nuts. Never knew you could use peroxide for plant issues!
This is going to be a last ditch effort for my peace lily. She had spider mites and treated for that but she is doing awful. I’m going to try this and pray she makes it 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Andrea, Did it work?
Yay! I’ve been waiting for this!! Thanks Harli! 💖
I've been trying to get this one uploaded since Sunday & UGH! It has been such a struggle, I'm glad it's finally there. Thank you so much for watching!
Hi Harli! This was a very interesting video. I appreciate that you took the time to show us how you use it, too. I forgot to mention in your repotting video that I use the plastic gloves for painting, etc. when I repot my plants, both inside and outside. They aren't bulky and you can "feel" better what your doing. Just an FYI. Thank you for sharing!
Wish I'd known about this earlier. Definately will try this out on one of my plant babies. Thanks Harli ❤
I know this video is a couple of years old but you just saved my sanity! I got an influx of fungus gnats and was constantly swatting and killing them but they wouldn't go away. The hydrogen peroxide bath was awesome! Then I followed up with the Neem Oil spray you have in your other video and 24 hours later I've only seen one gnat (not sure how he escaped but whatever). Thank you!!!
Harli first of all you are glowing and gorgeous ❤️congrats!
If you have yellow leaves that are a result of a watering issue that look sad but are still alive do you keep them? Can they come back? Sometimes if you cut them all your poor plant has barely any foliage left... I face this dilemma with a couple of my philodendrons arids right now
Always love a good tip on getting rid of pests!! 👌🏻 Will definitely try to locate some hydrogen peroxide here in Sweden 👍🏻
Sweden might have gotten rid of it all because at higher concentrations its like rocket fuel and a goto for your new besties that have taken over your country with their ideology. Good luck!
Ser att det här är en gammal kommentar, men jag köpte precis själv via mathem! Iofs har dom inte ett permanent utbud men om du fortfarande är ute efter det så har dom just nu!
I just used peroxide today! I topped all of my plants with sand to eliminate any critters and made sure to give any with critters already in there a good rinse. Harli, when are you updating ThePlantHall? I would absolutely die for an adansonii
I haven't done a video about it yet, but I am no longer a part of the plant hall so I honestly have no idea :(
@Kayden Jenkins that plan is also called a Swiss cheese plant and you can get one if you go to a nursery in Louisiana called Almost Eden Nursery. I saw one that was shipped to I believe it's Peggy's plants on TH-cam that I subscribe to. And she subscribes to my channel. She got a wonderful narrowleaf one that was gorgeous. So I ordered from that nursery and I also bought a Ric RAC cactus a golden Hoya and a variegated Hindu rope. I'm going to do a video on the plants are received from them and post it on my TH-cam channel next week. The Swiss cheese plant I even took cuttings from it was so long so I'm going to put them in the original pot to make it Fuller they have wonderful Roots so the cuttings are ready to be potted up with the mother plant
Do you use regular play sand ?
I also topped my plants off with sand and they still got in. So sand doesn't work. Not to mention your creating an environment for mold to grow rampant
Hi, I love watching your videos.👍🏾I have couple of questions;
1). How often can you treat your plants with hydrogen peroxide when they turn yellow & when the leaves are going dry?
2). What type of soil do you use & what do you all mix it with for your plants? Thanks.😃
Maybe you should check for root rot if the leaves are always turning yellow.
I've sprayed Indian almond leaf "tea", and that seems to help keep down fungus, even in my frog tank.
Great advice. I've never heard of this and I've been a plant nerd for over 30 years. Definitely makes sense. Thank you. 😘
Is there any plant this shouldn’t be done for ? Like maybe a more sensitive plant .
Awesome! Thank you! I just noticed mold on the top of the soul on my shamrocks. Going to try this!
Tell us the results!
thank you 😩 my plant got infested with fungus gnats and i didn't know what to do
I noticed today that my Alocasia Zebrina had some little white things crawling around in the soil. I've looked in my other plants and I've seen these things in there too.
When I tell you that I was about to chuck EVERYBODY out until I saw this video 😩 Thank you
The cutest girl on TH-cam ❤ thanks for the tips. Take care 💕🌸
I had never heard of this. Thank you! Just used on my grandmothers philodendron selloum I inherited that hasn’t been doing well since moving from California to Colorado. I hope this works!
I’m going to try this on my next mint cause it died I couldn’t figure out why until I looked at the roots. Thank you so much!
Great video Harli! I thank you and my house plants are going to thank you as well!!!
Thank you for being so straightforward in your videos and not taking forever to get to the helpful points
This is a very useful video Harli!! I didn't know ANY of this so I can't wait to use hydrogen peroxide according to your instructions!!!
Harli, this video is gold! Thank you sooo much! 🙏💎
I heard Miracle Grow indoor potting mix is basically like a bag of fungus gnats lol
That creeps me out so much 😭
Yup 100% 😭
I only just realized this when I saw a worm 🐛 crawling
its a good mix, but yes i’ve had a few issues with fungus knats after repotting plants with it
You have noooooo idea 🤦🏾♀️
I always go to peroxide as well ! Glad you did this video 🙌🏻 I use it on my new soil Incase there’s but larva such as Gnats etc. in the soil. I definitely agree soil comes with eggs in it sometimes. Also when i notice gnats flying around a pot. It works ! And I get that yucky fuzzy mold junk sometimes too. So weird. The peroxide is awesome
This happened to me when I repotted an aloe plant. It's actually growing like crazy but the gnats are annoying!!!!!
Ugh I feel you ! So annoying ! I got a Venus fly trap finally and I’m hopeful it helps along with the ugly sticky fly traps lol! I’ve caught so many of those pesky gnats with the fly trap!
Can you explain how you use it in new soil? Do you use it when you buy new plants too?
Great advice! Been waiting for this video. Have some plants that definitely need the H2O2 treatment. Thank you! :)
“So your don’t get a fungus gnats infestation, you know what I mean?” OH DO I!
I think I over watered my adansonii. Ive been freaking out all week. Gonna give this a try!!!!!
10/10 hydrogen peroxide does wonders! i had a lot of gnats on one plant and decided to repot it and sprayed the soil and roots with hydrogen peroxide and they were gone!
HI! I'd love to know why the soil has to dry out completely after disinfecting it. I often repot with pre-moistened soil, so wondering if I can use the sanitized soil before it's dried out. Thanks!
I’ve been dealing with fungus gnats from a specific plant I got but I’m definitely going to do this with all of my soil slowly but surly and they’ve have killed many of my small succulent
Your skin make up is so on point. Its perfect. No make up look on point.
I do what Miss Orchid Girl does and spray the roots with hydrogen peroxide when I’m repotting a new plant to help get rid of pests. Must say it works like a charm!
thank you so so much for posting this!!! you literally saved eight of our weed plants and all of my ferns 😅
😂😁❤️
This video is right on time! I need to fix my watermelon pep and mojito calocasia!
Let me know how it goes! (:
I will also be trying this on my Mojito Colocasia !
@@HarliG Hi Harli! Unfortunately both plants have died :( But I don't think its my fault. Your tips and tricks were very helpful! I think it was the nursery where I bought the plants because got both the watermelon pep and the calocasia 1 month ago and from my small plant knowledge its really hard to kill a plant that quickly if you think about it that's only like 3 watering cycles. Additionally the watermelon pep and calocasia from my understanding are completely different plants and its fishy that they both developed rot about the same amount of time when all of my other plants are thriving. I'm calling the nursery and seeing if they have any sort of return policy even for store credit would be nice :) Thank you so much for your fun and interesting videos! Im such a fan!
This is a great tip! I’m giving it a shot on a couple of plants that have very compacted soil and that are growing slowly
This has helped my plants, Thank you.
Ps. I love how the pitch of your voice goes high as you talk.
For gnats I use neem oil. Then I place a little bowl of apple cider vinegar water and dish soap right on top of soil. Works great!
Idk what it is but your glowing! New skin care or maybe the pregnancy 🤔
Agreed - she’s looking very vibrant lately
I AGREE Pregnancy suits her well
Definitely pregnancy glow. I completely agree !!
This is my first video I’ve seen of hers and came down to the comments while she’s talking about gnats to common her skin. Especially her face.
Thank you! I think it might be a side effect of my eating SUPER healthy & clean for my baby :P I may just have to stick with the diet after my pregnancy...for the most part anyway haha
I'm definitely going to try this on the herbs in my kitchen! I just repotted them a couple weeks ago and the top of the soil is moldy. I didn't know what to do until this video!
Just wanted to let you know this video has been a life saver!!!! Thank you so very, very much!!
Love the channel!! Are the mosquito bits safe to use on all plants? (I’m thinking of my calatheas and macodes petola)
I have the philodendron burle Marx plant. I water mine once a week. I make sure the soil is completely dry.
Watering with a 4:1 water to hydrogen peroxide was the only home remedy that helped my several month fungus gnat problem, I used that to kill the eggs and larvae and put out a red wine and dish soap trap to catch the adults so they couldn’t lay more. I never thought to disinfect with it before potting, thanks!
I never clicked on a video sooo fast
&
I just subscribed
When you bring a new plant home could you disinfect the soil while the plant is in the soil in the nursery pot?
Thanks Harli, I feel like this is really valuable information for a lot of issues!!!
Debi Hediger thzanks
Thank you for getting to the point and not wasting everyone's time like every other video I watched.👍👍👍👍👍
My boyfriend bought me a basil plant from Walmart that has mold on it. I’m definitely trying this, you’re the best!
Lizzy Woodard you can also taking cuttings from that basil plant and propagate them and they get roots in a week or two so then you have a some fresh new basils! My janky mint plant was from Walmart and the cuttings are doing way better than mama plant
This was a really helpful video ! Can you do a video explaining how you transition your outdoor plants back inside when it starts getting cooler?
Yes of course! Thanks for the video suggestion (: & thank you for watching!
Great video. I am going to use this on an aloe vera plant whose growth seems to be stunted. Thanks!
Thank you for the video! I didn't know you could also do this to prevent pests! I just thought it was only used to sterilize soil when potting something. 😁
I have learned so much from you!!!! It has seriously changed the plant game for me
You're right about the fungus gnats coming with the soil. I noticed them after repotting some. Doing research, I found out that MiracleGro is often infested with them.
Can I give my 4 year old Elephant leaf plant some hydrogen peroxide? Its getting yellow on the edges and some stems are drooping. My husband thinks he over watered it. Can u please give us advice?
@@lunacadence6050 it sounds your elephant ear plant is deficient in nitrogen and in magnesium. I would suggest you put a spoonful a teaspoonful of Epsom salts in a gallon of water that will help the leaves green up they need magnesium to make the chlorophyll which causes their leaves to be green. And a nitrogen deficiency is usually that yellow outline along the edges of a leaf. Also elephant ears be they alocasia or colocasia lose their oldest leaf as they're getting a new Leaf especially if they're deficient in nutrients. To make the new Leaf they take the nutrients out of the old leaf because they have to constantly grow. I have some videos on my channel from last summer wear I bought it up my elephant ears and my caladiums. I use a weak nutrient solution weekly on my orchids and then use the leftovers after the orchids soak on my other plants. The nutrient solution not only has some type of Miracle Grow with the first number the middle number the last number higher than the rest along with a Cal Mag solution called tell Magic... And in that I also have seaweed emulsion fertilizer some micronutrients Epsom salts and in the soil when I repot something I always put osmocote fertilizer and with it if I have worm castings that also goes in the soil.
purrrrson wow! No wonder I’m swatting so much after repotting !!! Thank you for this information
Kathleen Murphy Thank you so very much! You gave me such valuable information. Hopefully our elephant ear will get better. 🐘
@@ashley-annasledge9869 learn something from a man named Rick his TH-cam channel is called Rick's orchids and he also raises African Violets. He got rid of his fungus gnats by having a fan move the air in the room. Unfortunately he has a type of Parkinson's disease that also has like an Alzheimer type component to his disease... So I doubt unfortunately and sadly he'll be posting again he's one Brave man. But he does talk about getting rid of them but takes about two weeks. The fan it doesn't have to be on high just a little bit of a breeze and said he had a string hanging from his shelf and you could see it move. The breeze keeps the gnats from flying and able to find a mate and lay eggs in your pot so you have to wait till all the eggs have hatched and your pots which takes about two weeks and then it's over. He has it in one of his older videos about African violets... He started raising African Violets and then started with orchids.. he's the person on TH-cam that explain to me about how you figure out a nitrogen deficiency that halo around the edge of the leaf and magnesium deficiency is modeling all over the leaf the green isn't a solid green. He explains how all of those things work for a plant nitrogen potassium phosphorus calcium Etc.
Thank you for the info. I would use food grade Hydrogen Peroxide more expensive but no chemical stabilizers
This video has been a life saver for three of my plants! Thank you!!!
Ive been hunting for remedies for my satin potho! Thanks harli! Youre the best. Side note, you're looking great 🥰💚 luv ya girly
I’ve been waiting for this video! Yay!
Yay! I've been trying to upload this one since Sunday & UGH! I'm just glad it's finally there :P
I would pour the mixture in a spray bottle. And spray inside of the container first. Then fill with soil.
Skyflower23 .....Please research God's Time/Calender in Genesis 1:14 before the FALSE Sabbath law is enforced.
God's Sabbath is calculated by the lights in heaven, the sun, moon and stars.
Man can change their calendars anytime. Satan deceives them that receive the mark of the beast. God's Time sits in the heaven where NO MAN can tamper with it.
Do we think that God would command us to keep a seventh day Sabbath and NOT give us a time to calculate it?
The FALSE sabbath is coming! Let us choose Him that made heaven, earth and sea.
You blew my mind and I was able to stop a dracena, dieffenbachia and golden godess from root rot thanks to this video
By the way, the mold on top of the soil can actually be beneficial to plants, everything I've seen has pointed to allowing that to grow and decompose the top layer of soil if you want better water rentntion. Also other symbiotic relations have been ibserved
Thrips (by far ) are the hardest dang pests to get rid of.. to the point of insanity! It got to the point that when my plants got thrips I had to cut all the foliage off!😱 I know...tears, tears & more tears! But since the plant community has grown I’ve got some help on the demise of thrips and other pests out there that I could not get rid of without using tons of chemicals. Thank you for sharing the hydrogen peroxide ideas with the community! That helps really nicely & gives the roots a oxygen boost as well. Can’t do it often like you said but every once & a while is great for most plants! Thanks:)
Hey harli thanks so much for your wonderful videos I love them !! Could you do thrift videos and hauls as you are so good at getting such nice clothes from the thrift store !!
Yes! I second this! I love thrift hauls!
I personally wouldn't recommend using this for sensitive plants like calathea and prayer plants.. I used a very diluted mixture for treatment for fungus and fungus gnats on a red prayer plant and a syngonium. The syngomium was totally fine and free of gnats, but the prayer plant later developed yellowing/browning on the edges of a few leaves, similar to fertilizer burn. I think my mixture was much more dilute than 1:1, more like 3:1 (water:peroxide) Has anyone else experienced this?
Yes. I had a calathea peacock and rattlesnake. Tried a diluted mixture as well and it dried the roots out to where it they just died off
This was a helpful video, thanks a lot for posting! I saved my monstera plant from root rot by soaking the roots in a water peroxide mixture
I tried this and it got rid of all my gnats!! Completely amazing. I think I have rust going around with my plants. Do you think spraying this would take care of it??? 😖
