- My snake plants get over looked because they don't need that much care. So It was time show these Whale fins some TLC with fresh soil and a good watering.

I too have started replanting and combining my plants. Easier to find space remember to water fewer pots. 😅
The one leaf that is really tall, it is like that because it is reaching for light. I have the same problem with my whale fin. I moved it to higher light and the next Leaf did not come out the same. It came out better
ohhh I appreciate that! I'll probably add a grow light above these guys so they can get some more light
Love the whale fin family haha so cool! I am sure they will do a lot better now. I use that fertilizer as well! Plants are loving it so far.
My favorite fertilizer too!
Be honest here, when was the last time you watered your snake plants?
I water when the soil dries out completely. In my conditions, that’s about once a week.
Apparently ur snakes were just fine ❤️
They were, just wanted to show them a little love since they’re always the last ones on my list 😆
I usually water mines every 2 weeks or once a month.
I go about once a month for mine if I can remember 😆
💚
Build some self watering things with the plastic bottles and strings ❤️
Son muy linda ❤😂😊
Well done 👍🏻
Thank you! I gotta keep remembering to not put these guys last on my list
Help!!! My whale fin pup will not grow (it's been one year). The mom and dad are GORGEOUSNESS!! Any ideas❤❤❤😊😢
It depends if it's already mature of not. I have a smaller whale fin and it's not gonna grow any bigger. If it's been one year, most likely thats the biggest it'll get.
How often should snake plants be watered? My wife has a lot of them and she waters them once a week.
Hello! These guys are drought tolerant so you don't even need to be watering these once a week, maybe once a month. Really wait until the soil is fully dry and then soak it heavily
She probably knows what she’s doing. My soil dries out completely in one week, so they get watered. Yes, you can go longer, but the plant will suffer as this video demonstrates.
I was given two snake plants that are 4 foot tall. All the ones I see on TH-cam are no more then two feet. What can I do to make these plants healthy. Also when I reported from the ugly plastic pots they came in and added miracle grow I am now infested with gnats. I've only watered once in the two months I've had the plants with a peroxide water mix. Used Miracle grow when I repotted. Bought mosquito bits but waiting for plant to get good and dry, is this right to rid myself of the gnats? And what do I do about this plant growing so tall. I have it in front of a window, but have no idea where the previous person has it
Oh no, not gnats! Luckily it's an easier problem to fix compared to other pests. I'd move the plant outside in a shaded area so the plant gets more light and would allow the soil to completely dry much faster. Gnats possibly could have occured because after watering, the soil wasn't drying up too fast. If you have your plant in a low light area, it wouldn't require much water.
@@_thevibespace unfortunately taking it outside is an issue as my apartment is on the third floor and is way too heavy to move far. Going to b going away for a week next week so hoping to put mosquito bit on just before I leave and let the apartment get hot so the plant will dry out and the adults get stuck on the sticky strips. They are tricky, thought I got got rid of them, wasn't bothered for three days then they came back with vengeance. Waiting til next week just before I leave to add more mosquito bit, don't want to make it to moist. I put some on about a week ago but the soil is still damp halfway down.
I just repotted all of mine and promised them I’d do better 😬😬😬
whoot whoot! They'll thank you
Last week after one month😂
You’re not alone! Once a month I think is my watering schedule for the guys, at least if I remember 😝
