It’s the everyday struggles for sure. Glad you enjoyed! 🙏🏻✌🏻

Great idea, I have added to my “to do” topics!

Thank you for watching and I am glad you found my video to be matter of fact. That is a big compliment and I appreciate you! ✌🏻

I am glad you found it laid back. Gardening to me is very relaxing and is part of the enjoyment.

Agreed

You at are welcome, thanks for watching! ✌🏻

Thank you 😊 🙏🏻

Hey! I have come to learn also that a mild orange is fairly common, however in my specific plants case, it was very soggy and starting to rot which was past the normal colours and into a darker orange /brown. Thanks for the comment, as someone reading will find your information helpful!

Hi Jewel, I think your plant will be just fine. Growth may slow for a short time so just be careful to let the soil dry between watering

If it starts to shrivel you’ve waited too long. 🤷🏻‍♂️. Other than this, I just guess, and usually give it a week or 2 before a light splash

Thank you 😊, glad you found the video helpful! ✌🏻

Hi, I have learned and heard both to let dry and that watering is also ok. I only water lightly and then let the soil dry out quite a bit before watering again. Ymmv but seems to work alright.

You can cut them quite a bit, the less you take off the better, but it will recover and start growing it’s roots again.

Hi, I would choose something with good drainage that won’t stay too wet. Moisture control or even a cactus mix works quite well. Can also mix in some extra perlite to regular potting soil. Wish you success!

* not yet fully flowering but it has two stalks with a few dozen of flower-buds and tiny droplets on it?

I would wait to propagate just because it’s flowering but I doubt it would make a difference with success of separating. You would lose the flowering of you chose to! 🎉 Very rare from my experience. So far I have had zero flowering and I have quite a few of these snake plants.

@@plntfriends Thank you man, Yes I read that they rarely flower. I have left it in the pot and will wait with separating the plant till after it's done blooming. Thanks again for responding!

Give them a chop, and prop. New plants and problem solved. ✌🏻

I will see if I can make that happen for you! Thank you for the video suggestion! ✌🏻

I just used a regular potting soil with a bit cactus mix. I rarely water the snake plants and so I’m not at risk of over watering them. A good soil is cactus or some coco coir mixed in for good drainage. Wishing you success!✌🏻

Great idea! I will put on my to do!

Hey! Welcome to the club! Something that is very well draining is best. Cactus soil or similar is a good option. ✌🏻

@@plntfriends Great! Thanks for the tip.

Hi, what is the time of the video you are referring to? I will check

Wait until it is dry! Patience!

Hi, yes I believe that is what I mentioned in the video. Could also use a coir and soil mixture to lighten it

Hello, personal opinion is that it does not matter when. I have had success in any season

​@@plntfriends I am not sure if this question can be answered online and without pictures... I had divided my snake plant a few weeks ago and it so far has been successful! The only problem is that one of the rhizomes didn't have roots. I wasn't sure what to do at the time, so I left it connected to one other rhizome and repotted them together. (5 out of 6 of them had what looked to be a normal amount of roots.) It looks like the one without roots is fading in color and some of the ends of the leaves are yellowing. I do not recall seeing any black spots on the rhizome or major discoloration, just a lack of roots. (I consider myself one to underwater rather than over water.) But as it appears to be dying, I am thinking I might divide it from the healthy one and repot it, and then try to propagate the leaves from the dying one in case it is a fungus. Do you have any thoughts or suggestions?

@@magenta6480 hi, sorry for the delay in answering. If it were mine, I would separate it from the otherand put the end in a cup of water or a perlite box. It should sprout roots from the rhizome with a little time but need to keep it moist/ humid. Good luck!

Thanks for watching ✌🏻

Hi, Should be able to follow the same principles as I use to cut the root in the video. Make sure there is roots for the cut portion. Doesn’t have to be exact or perfect. Plants will do ok. If still have questions let me know

@Plant Daddy

I believe this one was found at Walmart believe it or not! Every so often I get lucky!

Hi Ellen, I would see how damp the soil is if it is coming in soil. If the soil is damp when you pot it then I would wait until the first inch or 2 of soil is completely dry. If it is a bare root cutting, then for sure give it a little bit of water when potting. Much love and Merry Christmas!

@@plntfriends thank you! Merry Christmas to you!

I got the whale fin sansaveria today! It's lovely! It is 19 inches tall and lovely. One problem was a 4 inch split from the top. It was healed. Didn't happen in transit. Should I be concerned about it splitting more. Is there anything in the plant world that can be used to repair it. Any advice is appreciated!thank you!

Also,the plant was potted and the soil is damp. I'll not water for a while as recommended. Thanks!

I wouldn’t worry too much about it as it shouldn’t split any further. It will unfortunately never be a perfect leaf/fin but will continue to grow.

You could also consider cutting the tallest stalks down and propagating them into new pots. That would leave it a bit more even and also provide multiple plants to grow. From the sounds of it, your snake plant is a beauty! ✌🏻

@@plntfriends Thank you;))

I am sorry to hear you are having issues with your plant. It sounds as though there could be a root issue. Have you tried to remove from the soil and replant in new soil? Might be worth a shot, as well could use hydrogen peroxide to deal with any root rot fungus or pests. I have never had a sanseveria turn yellow but that would be where I check first.

Thank you for replying. This all started, when I discovered tiny black Thrips were gouging into the plant's leaves. The Thrips are now dealt with, but 2 of the 3 plants have died! The remaining plant is small, and kind of fragile. I've replanted in recently, and the roots looked good, no evidence. of root rot. If this plant dies, I won't get another Sanseveria. Thank you so much for the tips! Aloha! 💟🤙

A cactus mix or some coco fibre mixed into potting soil works well. Something well draining!

I always worry about breaking my plants 😰 but I try to be as gentle as I can. If you break a tip, plant the tip of it and have another plant 🌱 👍🏻

I just use a box store potting soil like pro mix. Sometimes I’ll add in some vermiculite or perlite for certain plants but honestly I don’t think too much about it.

they do very well with cactus succulent potting soil because they prefer drier soil and this soil is well draining and like PD said you can add some perlite for added aeration.

Great tip! Thanks for adding!

Yes they do!

Hey John! Yeah I would believe that from my experiences with propagating them and the different containers I have used in the past. Same with the ZZ plant. I find they put most of their energy into the roots until they get a bit bound by the pot and then start putting shoots up.

@@plntfriends Thank you very much.

If it is in a pot with drainage holes, then I water until it’s is saturated and let the excess run off. You want to thoroughly water when only water so often.

@@plntfriends what if it’s indoor plants with no drainage?

@@plntfriends we’ve been watering them once a week

@@samiam3706 that is too often for these plants unless you are barely giving any water. How large is the pot the plant is in? You need to estimate what it would take to water well but not leave water sitting in the bottom.

@@plntfriends they are in 9 to 10 inch deep pots

Perhaps sad to some, but now I have grown these cuttings to have more beautiful plants

@@plntfriends NICE WORK

You should forgot more often then ;) good luck!

Haha yeah, i know how to run a vacuum though.😂 little bit of mess never hurt anyone. Thanks for watching! ✌🏻

I am sorry to hear
