Fern, anytime I start kind of neglecting my plants or just not appreciating them as much as I once did, I see one of your videos of the same plants and it sparks my need to make them thrive again. If it weren't for you and all your videos of how much you love and care for all your plants so many of mine would not he here with me today. I go through terrible funds. Thank you for always sharing your plants and plant care with us. I appreciate you so very much!

Hi Fern! I very much enjoyed this style of video, where you focus on just one plant with your own experiences, a repot, going over propagation, soil mixes etc... and then do the Q&A. I feel like I learned a ton from this, and now the SoH doesn't feel so intimidating. Adding one to my wish list!

I agree with you about KZfaqrs warning us to let all of our plants dry out before watering. They have us paranoid to the point that our plants are stressed. In their natural habitat they are mostly kept damp all the time from frequent rains. I have started watering mine more frequently and before they totally dry out, then I water lightly, not until it runs out the bottom. They are all doing better. Of course not cacti or succulents.

Once I take cuttings I just pop them right back into the soil and they seem to root up pretty quick! Haven't had any issues doing it that way so far. Only thing I would suggest is just spraying the soil in the section you pot them into every couple of days for a few weeks, so A) you don't over water the rest of the plant and B) the new vines stay moist in order to root up.

I'm growing my variegated string of hearts in pon and it's so happy. It's in a wicking self-watering planter, so it gets consistent moisture but it's a much less wet environment than if you sat the pon directly in the reservoir. When I first started the plant from butterfly cuttings placed on top of the pon, I initially filled the reservoir right up so it covered the bottom of the pon and kept it pretty wet through to the surface. Then I put a clear plastic container over the top as a humidity dome. The inner pot is clear, so once I could see my cuttings had sent roots down into the pon, I let the reservoir drop until only the wick was in it, which is how I keep it. I just refill whenever it gets low, but there is always enough to keep the wick wet.

I combined my green and variegated SOH in chunky aroid mix with a self watering pot and they are doing very well. They were just cuttings so potting them together seemed like a good idea. All are loving the moist environment of the self watering wicking pot. And I never gets dry or wrinkled now. I love seeing you reworking yours. I put each stem in separate to add growth all around the pot but I am impatient in wanting fuller pots. LOL!! See you on the next video.

unfortunatly my String of Heart was covered in thripse (was my first pest and I just thought it was change of location + end of summer problems...) and it was super bold. I did many cuttings (butterfly method, checked today... Looks like many of them rotted 🥲), washed it several times and now it is in a bigger pot with a growlight right next to it. I am very happy seeing it growing again and hope the thripse leave my String of Hearts alone..... Also I wanted to say: are u sure you were looking at the right pictures when searching for orange river? I did too and I find their leaves look way more sharp and more like a triangle.
