Oh that plant is stunning! My dieffenbachia just flowered and I didn’t know what to do with the 2 corns that emerged. They do have a weird smell. Thanks.

Can neem oil kill them?

Oh please dont make yourself a professor. So much useless info. Any plant need right watering and sunlight. The thing with this plant is all about humid area. Thats it!

It’s beautiful..please don’t cut it. Just put it in larger pot or buy a pole to help it…

I appreciate your information very much.

Thank you

I love this video, thank you for sharing this knowledge!!!

One of the most I formative short videos on this plant I have seen. I just bought my first one and am getting ready to mount it!

I've grown this plant for over 20 years repot it in a bigger pot are the leaves will get larger the plant will get larger make sure your ceilings are high

The lint roller is an amazing idea. THANK YOU

i just sprayed apple cider vinegar on and that worked

I got my calathea 2 weeks ago as a birthday present. But her leaves are always down .. she never closes them.. could she be staying to cold or to bright?

An easier way to think of it is the sky is reflecting the sun - the more sky, the more indirect sunlight.

Mine is recovering from just being a rootless rhizome! The leaves are already black around the edges although the leaves are small and more round due to stunted growth

How about growing lights? I have growing lights and when I measure the light with an app it says it's insufficient because it doesn't take in the bulb as a light source. However, my plants (peperomia and string of hearts included) are growing nicely so far under a couple of growing lights. Will a light meter take into account the light that a growing light emits?

Thank you for the video very helpful .

My new fronds are dying 🥲🥲🥲 I am new with this one, pls tell me how to rescue it.

Love it, time lapse duration original please

You can use it to mulch your soil

Thank you so much for such an informative video. I also loved how you patted the plant in the beginning of the video! All the best to you !

thank you for concise helpful info. im going to give a maiden hair fern another try after watching this. I too appreciate that you dont waffle or feel you need to "entertain". Excellent. I have now subscribed.

This is a fantastic and informative video for growers!

Noooo, no darling, they naturally grow on forest floors with lots of shade, exposing them to lots of bright light is the wrost thing to do! Ideally they should be placed in shade but near good light

should I snip the dead fronds off my maidenhair?

hello what are your thoughts about food grade diatomaceous earth?

Wow that’s so Freaken cool !

IReally helpful video, thanks for posting!

Interesting way to look at it!

So would on the window sill always be better than anywhere else?

I'm confused some people say not give calatheas tap water however, tap water sitting overnight its ok. But to use distilled or rain water. I use use the overnight tap water method or whenever some bottle water. 😂❤

I could spend hours looking around 💯

Oh my gosh, thank you!

Amazing. You nailed it my friend. Thank you for this extraordinary explanation.

I had a dumb cane for 30 years that thrived and was shared with many people. It never bloomed. Can you tell me why? I have a baby now, and it will not grow. There are 5 stems less than 4 inches tall. They will begin to produce a leave, but it will wither before it opens completely. I water when dry and provide filtered light. I've had it two years. Again, what can I do?

Is it a good idea to repot it in a bigger pot?

Best video I have seen so far on them. Do you think drip irrigation would benefit them?

very nice video and good information thanks dear friend

For almost 50 years I've grown houseplants. But have always felt unsure, just trying to keep them from dying. As a teen the 70s, I bought Crockett's book on houseplants where he used the term foot candles and never completely understood. Finally! Some clear information. I really appreciate your simplistic approach to explaining lighting. Thank you.

Very informative and useful tips!

❤

Thanks for the video! I keep carnivorous plants and here in the sub-tropical South Africa, if you keep anything moist daily, voila! You have spores from who knows where turning into lovely ferns. Experimenting with spores is fun but you need to be patient with them - they take a lot of time to develop through all the stages. Months of care(mostly spraying or watering daily) will reward you greatly. I have a long pot with Sphagnum Moss I keep moist on a tray with water, leaving the fern leaves with spores facing down. You could keep the tray filled with water and close the top with clingwrap if you dont want to water daily or dont have time, this could stretch watering to weekly. Hope this info helps if you want to try propagating ferns through spores, or save your fern's offspring!!!

Can artificial lighting be a substitute?

Not sure if things have changed since you made this video 3 yrs ago, but actually home gardeners/plant keepers can now get beneficial bugs against plant pests in Canada. I’m in Canada too and have bought & used beneficial predatory mites for my indoor plants & indoor gardens quite a few times now - stratiolaelaps scimitus to go in soil against fungus gnats, and amblyseius swirskii mites against thrips (at least their larval forms, with manual removal for any adult thrips). These predatory mites work very well when used correctly and may require a few repeat treatments every 2-4 weeks to fully get rid of the pests. You can buy these kinds of beneficial predatory mites/bugs from certain sellers online and you don’t necessarily have to be a commercial grower to do so - I’ve found and bought from at least a few sellers with success.

Air plant chandelier? I’m in love!

Thank you so much!! Off topic, I love the shelf in your room. Where did you get it?

I wipe the leaves of my Monstera with a damp (nearly wet) kitchen towel. About to use a reusable rag which I wash in laudrary detergent with the regular clothes wash. Doing this twice weekly. Also removed the top surface of the soil and replaced with new soil.

I really appreciate this useful information, but would like to point out your voice was getting masked by the loud distracting background sound that was added.

Pretty good delivery!!

Lint roller is kind of genius. Sadly, most of my plants have wimpy leaves so the battle will be long and tedious.

Lovely and informative video. Have you ever tried converting from soil to leca? I’ve just started recently began doing that in the last couple of months and my ferns have responded beautifully. No guessing about when to water which is a definite win with ferns.
