It’s crazy that I see ficus trees flourish in random front yards but my plant loves to cause issues 😂
haha right, it's like why can't you grow like this inside
I live in Texas and my ficus love it outside. They get direct morning sun and a little afternoon sun too!
Hi Melissa, thank you for inspiring me to repot my FLF today. 😚 We definitely can't feel the spring vibes here in the Bay Area yet, but the soil is so sandy and compacted that I feel my ficus can't wait anymore... she will be angry for sure, but she has been mad at me since October when I brought her inside, so it's worth a try! 😝💚
aww hoping your fiddle does well for you! I think they're beautiful! 🤗
Perfect timing with this video, I just bought another Tineke today to add with mine for a bushier look 💚
Gorgeous Teneke Melissa!!! 👌🏼😊
Hi Melissa,
You inspire me to grow plants & take really good care of them. Your videos are very informative & detailed, your very patient. I recently found your chanel, & I'm hooked. I've been binge watching your videos to make sure I got everything you say. I've learned so much from you, Your such a great teacher! Thank you for also sharing your ideas, it gives me inspiration. I think we have the same taste, LOL. Oh, your cats are so adorable
This is such a sweet comment 😭 thank you!! 🥹 I love making videos and helping! I learned so much from others from watching videos and from my own experience and it’s what made me want to make this channel. It makes me so happy to know I’m helping in some way. I really appreciate it and thank you so much for being here!! 🤗
nice ! i have a Ruby and a FLF I keep them right against my window lol they love it
I just love the Tineke. Such interesting, gorgeous leaves. One of my wishlist plants. Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome!
I love watching your videos while I'm getting ready for school lol Hope you have a good day :)
aww thank you!! have a good day at school!! 🤗🥰
Beautiful variegated plant. I definitely share your like of variegation, in my humble opinion it adds to the beauty of a plant. Thanks for the video.
Thank you! I agree I love how beautiful the variegation can be!
I'm waiting for amazon deliviery december 20th/2023 ordered the super thrive so curious. Love the video, have a ficus as well, now i know what to do. Love from Belgium 🥰
It's pretty 💚🌿💚👍🏽
Thank you! This is my favorite ficus so pretty!
My triangularis dropped so many leaves this winter, I thought it was dead. 😪 I have it under a growlight now and hoping it will recover in my south window once spring/summer comes. Love you!
oh no, hoping it grows well for you this season! come on spring lol 🤗
nice ficus plants my friend 👍👍
Thank you! ☺️
My Tineke is definitely more of a diva than my Ruby. Mine really likes bed being outside last summer so I’m planning on putting them back there when it’s warmer out.
So pretty❤
LOL, Cracked me up .🐜🐜 I watched that part 3 times. 🤣. I'll wait and see how your Tineke does before I put mine outside. One of my favs.Your weather is about a month ahead of mine.
haha it's a little jumpscare now when I go to repot. So far it's doing well! We have some colder 40 deg weather coming up so hoping it doesn't get too angry out there 😬
Oooo soo pretty. I have a small one yours is like goals for sure. I wonder how much they grow each year? Mine seems to be kinda slow n steady
Hi melissa :).....I bought some bigger nursery pots to repot 2 of my ficus plants......my quad has 6 leaves left but it should perk up outside this summer! Yikes...just bought a new burgandy from leafjoy.....it was so pretty and perfect...I see the shiver.....that one pretty variety.....is coming way down in price! Hope to add that one this year! Ok thanks for the motivation as always!
Thank you, Justina! Congrats on your new burgundy! I do want a shivereana too! They're soo pretty!
Great video as always!
I thought you were using only the clear grow pots (last years videos I think)? Or is that only for certain plants?
BEST OF PLANTY LUCK!!! Y💚UR FICUS TINEKE Is Definitely A STUNNER!!! My Tineke Is One Of My OGs... BUT I Just Chopped HER AND My Ficus Alltissima Because THEY Both Had Lost Too Many Lower Leaves For My Taste. I'm HAPPY T🥰 SAY That THEY"RE B💚TH REPR💚DUCING F💚R ME!!!
Hi Melissa!
My mom hasn't repotted, changed soil on her Ficus Elastica Robusta in over 15 years... It is not dying at all but I wouldn't say it's super happy (curled leaves, smaller leaves, falling leaves), but on the other hand, I am so scared that repoting/upsizing after so long will shock the plant and kill it.
Do you have some advices on repoting a ficus that has been for so long in the same pot/soil?
Thanks for your videos. ❤️
Hey, Melissa,
My ficus has some roots coming out of the pot, so I think it is time to repot, but I've never done it before, so I'm a little scared.
I've seen some repotting videos, and people usually loose all the soil they can. Is that necessary, or can I do it like you did in the video (loose a little bit, but mantain most of the old soil)?
Thanks!
💚
Do you let the triangularius dry out as well! Please help! I have one and it’s not happy even after a month of getting use to the environment.
💚💚💚
Cleaning and spraying White Vinegar. Got rid of my ants.
I have one currently a Robusta I believe. When it arrived it appeared it was crammed into a really tiny pot so I upsized. Since one leaf turned black and so I removed it and on other leaf just fell off. I'm not sure if it needs more water or sun as the lower leaf is drooping. I've put it under a grow light, which I may do for a few hours at a time per day, as it's winter still and there's not much sun coming in.
it could be some shock from the repotting but if the soil is wet and you're getting black it could be some root rot going on. A few hours isn't enough light for these guys though they need a lot more light!
When you put outside is it like covered or is it fine with no cover
At least your teneke is pretty big,mine has been stuck with only a few leaves for almost 2 years. I did finally move it to brighter light but it has helped only a little bit
oh wow, that's definitely awhile with stuck growth. I hope it continues to grow well for you. Do you use a fertilizer at all?
@@plantsbymelissa I do fertilize all year
So mine is almost 7 feet tall… I think the pot size is too big. What pot size to do recommend ?
I have noticed that root ball of tineke was not teased nor the oil soil wasn't removed, may I know why was that,? I am planning to repot my Neon pothos since it's hot here though it's already autumn. Thank u. U have beautiful plants.
Also, I'm planning to buy peppermint soap. May I ask if ur mixture could be used by only spraying and not wiping the leaves 😅 coz when winter I just purchased the commercially mixed spray Neem oil and it took me so long to wipe every single leaf😅, I just sprayed and it was just fine, but during summer I showered it, leaves were just fine. Now it is getting autumn and winter, I'll be back on wiping majority of my plants so thinking to use ur mixture but no wiping, haha seems I'm kinda lazy
I don't use a certain amount to mix with just a few drops in some water and I mix it together :) I need to do a lot better with wiping my leaves more often! I didn't want to stress the ficus! I just wanted to upsize it since I was going to put it outside so it wouldn't dry soo fast out there 🙏
@@plantsbymelissa thanks a lot 🌱
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I used to have a ficus burgundy long ago and it was so huge and one day dropped all her leaves! So sad!!
Ewww ants!
oh no I'm so sorry! The ants have been an annoying pest recently 😔
Put cinnamon they do not like on your window seal. Ya ants do not like cinnamon
Only put aunt bait where the ants come in your plant room. What you’re doing by putting ant bait anywhere else encourages the aunts to come farther into your room leaving a trail for other ants to find the bait. This is from my sisters “ant man” Bait only goes where you see them come into your house. Then they only come in that far and return to the nest leaving a trail from the ant bait and back to the nest.
I know how it works thanks
Boy that ficus isn’t going to be happy. Lol 😂
I have a Fiddle and an Audrey, my Fiddle lost 90% of its leaves after a repot to remove the death plug and my Audrey is doing fine. It took about 5-6 months for it to push its first leaf after I purchased it and it lost quite a few in the acclimation process, but its doing very well. I love Ficus, but they're definitely too much work! 🥲
Happy it's doing well now! I think they're beautiful plants but yes, very picky lol.
I don’t understand why you think the ants would go in the soil. You don’t see them crawling in the soil. They have a nest with eggs to take care of. They just came from the sap.
Seriously, ant bait only where they come into your house, or room. Don’t attract them further in your room.
The plant was in the window at the same time with all the others when I first noticed them. I'm not attracting them into my home. The ficus was isolated. I have had a lot going on these past couple weeks with luna and am slowly repotting the plants that were in the window. I'm not surprised if more plants have ants because a lot had come in.
You sure your name isn't Karen? Seriously.
🎍Ficus challenged here!!🎍🪴Do you prefer plastic nursery pots? Is there anytime you recommend clay pots , ceramic or other type of material? I've started using the nursery pots since I've seen you use them so much. 🪴
I love plastic pots! I used to use more terracotta but I pretty much have switched over. The only plants I keep in terracotta now are snake plants and succulents. It dries too quickly for me! I don't pot in ceramic either since it holds onto a lot more water 🤗
Do you let the triangularius dry out as well! Please help! I have one and it’s not happy even after a month of getting use to the environment.
