    Love that you're not hoarding a load of plants, but focusing on a select few beautiful plants to grow out huge and luscious to maturity. Breathe of fresh air for the plant community. Also I love how you share knowledge without overcomplicating anything. Look forward to more of your videos, kitty included!

    I have a feeling your channel is going to grow BIG with so many subscribers in the next few months. Your plant collection is just simply STUNNING. I've never seen such large houseplants in a person's home before. I'm waiting until I purchase a house (currently living in a small 1 bedroom apartment) to do a lot more experimentation with plants to make them grow large. Your plants are GOALS! Love your content!

There is a lot to learn so I love the idea if just taking one plant at a time and breaking it down, I find it way less overwhelming! Keep up the excellent videos, I will continue to watch anything you put out!

    I never was a fan of Adansonii in the ways I'd seen it displayed before, this video showing their potential given some work and time completely changed my mind. I'd been trying to get hold of one since you posted this and finally got a multi-planted pot of it yesterday from a local lady, took cuttings straight away and currently rooting them in water. Can't wait to get them on a moss pole. Thanks for the inspiration Jan. :)

    You have turned my world upside down with my plant care and growth methods. You are responsible for me spending over $200 at Bunnings in recent days, (wire mesh, spagnum moss, charcoal etc, etc.)
    Im loving your video's although I would mentiom that all Bunnings are not created equal. I live in Gladstone and we dont have anywhere near the plant stock that you enjoy in Sydney.
    Also, I know what you feed your plants, but what do you feed that cat? He is truely a king among felines, he is incredible.

    Very impressive. I'm doing something similar with pothos.
    It'll be a bit more work but I'm going to try an air layer to extend. My climbers don't grow well on moss, but they go crazy on just regular old tree branches.
    I love the look of pretty much all mature aroids compared to the immature stage. (Except may the syngoniums)

And planning to get few more Adansonii for my 6' pole (birch tree pole) to climb on. So excited!

    Hi there, your plants are gorgeous and I love your tutorials! I’m curious, you mentioned that they grow better in the home that you’re in now, as opposed to where you lived previously. I can see that you have a good bit of natural light coming in from the side, can you share the temperature and humidity that you maintain in there? do you keep your plant room warmer and more humid than the rest of your home?

I recently started with Alocasias, they are beautiful but their chunky mix dries out too quick and they suffer.

    I just love how you grow your aroids! What I have been wondering (and can't find it in your video's) is how you do the transfer from plants grown in soil to you soilless mix & mosspoles. I guess you can't just flush out the soil, pop it on a mosspole with the chunky mix and expect it to thrive right away. Do I make a chunky mix with a bit of soil mixed in and wait till it's rooted in the pole to switch to completely soilless? I have a few cuttings growing in water and a few I bought in soil, but I want to try your way of growing them. Thanks in advance, and please keep on making this content! :D

    I know it's not on a moss pole, but would love to know your Thai Constellation care. I have one with now 7 leaves, latest one with inner fenestrations. Wondering how others take care of them.

    Hello. I have just found your channel. Loved this video. I have never grown a plant on a pole so this may be a silly question but once the plant reaches your desired height could you just cut and propagate or give away.

    I'm so happy I found your channel! With the exception of my golden pothos on a pole and a Hoya on a trellis, I've just allowed all my other plants trail. I just put my adansonii on a pole a couple months ago to give that a try, but not a moss pole. Now I'll have to get the supplies to make your version of a moss pole & give your method a try! 🌱💚🌿

    Amazing video! Thank you so much this was really helpful. I absolutely adore your cat especially when he was biscuit making 😂 had to get my cat put down 6 months ago, when he passed I bought like 40 plants one being this! Mine is only about 5" tall but I'm going to get a moss pole to see better results.
    I'm wondering what temps you had over there for this crazy growth?
    Love from 🇮🇪

    I'd love the spotlight series!
    Just put my (very ordinary but I adore them) Adansonii on a pole the other day and I'm so curious to see what it does with it. I know I won't ever have large foliage like that but I'm sure the plant will like it. What I found thought (Berlin based) is that I have to water my poles every other day (1meter pole, put 0,5-0,75 liter bottles on top each time). The soil stays pretty moist (just cocochips, pine bark, perlite, worm castings..) in between and bit of the water always drains through the pot. I have to carry all my plants to the tub before I water them and that is quite a challenge with my monstera variegatas 🤣
    Anyways, thanks for your vids 👍 and pls say hi to Brad.

    • @sydneyplantguy
      @sydneyplantguy  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have a watering tutorial which might help :) sounds like you might be using too much water if it drains all the way through :)

    • @berlinaroids
      @berlinaroids 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@sydneyplantguy I've already watched all tutorials :) you helped me so much with the watering, because I now use bottles as well. I think I'll just have to find a good balance between "half a liter has gone through, the pole is wet" and "three quarter of a liter have gone through, it poured into the pot yet the pole isn't moist throught"
      I know it's not comparable cause you're half way around the world with a completely different setting (temp., light, average humidity etc.) but with your 90cm poles, how often do you water them with those half a liter bottles (I'm just guessing they are half a liter though) round about?

    Do you have another link for the fertilizer ? or if you changed what you use for this plant to something else ? I have had my plant for a few months but the leaves are growing in smaller not larger thinking Maybe its the fertilizer

    I'm wondering if the variegated Adansoniis have it in them to get this large, never seen one even close to this!

    • @sydneyplantguy
      @sydneyplantguy  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Given all that variegation the plant wouldn’t have much chlorophyl to help produce growth. So it’s probably possible but will take a while :)

    Maybe a silly question. But after the chops and extend, do you keep the top portion or the main plant to get the bigger leaves?
