I love the way you explained about the "sky view" I learned a lot. thank you for sharing your knowledge.

As a new plant mom who has/had the brownest thumb ever lol I’ve been pouring over YT videos abt specific plant care and I must say, yours is one of my favorites specifically bc of the language you use. I’m all about precision of language; instead of just assuming the audience knows what you’re talking about and speaking in vague generalities. So thank you 😊

this brings me so much comfort! I thought I killed my dumb cane because the bottom leaves are yellowing. Now I understand that its just the older leaves falling off. I have it near my window with the best indirect light coming through and have watered it when I feel the soil is partially moist, letting the water drain from the drainage holes. so I think its just growing up! lol thank you for the tips!

Wow! Your explanation of "what my plant sees" is fantastic!

I watch so many KZfaq plant channels, but this is by far the most helpful! Thank you so much

Just got two dieffenbachias today, I’m so excited to watch them grow 💚💚

Great advice; I woke up a bit paniced this morning thinking i was killing my dumb cane... You have made me feel better; I think its just letting go of old leaves. As the new smaller leaves coming in are still nice bright green.

I'm so glad I came across your channel and book. I put my never-blooming peace lily beside an eastern window after watching your videos, and within a month it pushed out 6 flowers!! My peace lily thanks you :D

This was an absolutely fantastic video. It was so clear and easy to understand and explained in much more detail than any other plant care video that I've ever seen just how exactly plant issues should be analyzed. Thank you so much! I will be a new subscriber for sure, and I hope you continue to post more detailed videos such as this one with true examples of plants & their issues! 🙂💚🌿

I could've watched more of this for hours! Very grateful for all the information, you put it in a way that's easy to understand!

Super thankful for this video. My dieffenbachia is on a constant leaf rotation. She does give me new growth at the bottom to feed my need to be a good plant mama. Seeing the plant at the botanical garden you went to is encouraging to know what a healthy dieffenbachia can look like.

Hello! If you’re looking at this your dieffenbachia camille is probably yellowing. Mine was pretty much dead the first time I saw this video, and since then I’ve changed EVERYTHING I could. I moved my camille but I noticed she didn’t like that, so I moved her back to her original place. (Underneath a ceiling window, the light is indirect because it’s covered with a decorative coffee bag.) I started misting and spraying my camille at LEAST twice a day. Just the leaves, I noticed in a matter of days how beautiful she got. She’s now full of new growth and the new leaves tend to open up very quickly with the regular sprays. I try to always save up rain water for my plants, they love it. I water my camille once every week or whenever I feel the soil a bit too dry. Spraying and misting truly saved my plant. You just need to be regular with it.

Of the many house plant video people I’ve watched, I’ve never heard any of them teach thought process like this. Thank you so much!

Stumbled upon your video because I was searching for help with my dieffenbachia. Thank you so much for your advice and perspective! Gave me a bit of peace of mind realizing how the grow in the wild 😅 you’ve got a new subscriber!

Thank you. I always worried about the brown tips on my peace lily but now looking at it it’s pretty healthy.

Thank you! I woke up in a panic because my plant "Jan & Fran" look yellow and withered. They've never had this happen before! Panic mode set in and I'm very grateful I came across this ! Many blessings

Pleaseee do a video on what soil mixtures you use for your house plants!!

I am so glad that somebody is calling out the "bright indirect light" nonsense, that no one really understands.

Totally agree with you of how the way you treated your own house plants , because I did lots of mistake the way I look after my own house plants andcend up killing some of my plant , but again thanks God I learned my own mistake ,

Wow! So enlightening! Pardon the pon. My neighbor said her Cebu Blue Pothos was not doing well. What was wrong with it? I said I could not help her until I saw where it lives. She looked at me like I was nuts. She ssid it is in my sunroom by the windows. I went into the house and step by step went over what it might be. Since I have watched your videos and am getting a better understanding of what my plants need and how I can help them be healthy and happy. Comparing a plant in a nursery to an Olympic athlete is so eye opening. It really helps me to understand of what I can and can not provide to different types of plants. Thank you! 😎

Thank you for the helpful insights. I'm a new plant mom and I was getting worried about my peace lilies but, your explanation of light and watering made sense. God bless!

Your comment on the brown tips on peace Lily’s really helped me understand my plant differently! I was having the same concerns over mine and suddenly this video pops up! Perfect timing lol 👌

Just saw you for the first time and love how you answer the question they are very relatable and help me know where to place plants and not worry too much. Thanks

You touched on a key factor of watering most potted plants; to water thoroughly and properly water must come out the drainage holes. To know if this is occurring one needs to be able to see the bottom of the pot, which can be difficult if the plant is double potted, in a decorative container, basket, etc.. A plant needs to be installed in such a way that one can see the water draining and that the water is adequately contained in a correctly sized drip tray or other means. In some instances after watering any water remaining in the drip tray or receptacle after a couple of hours will need to be removed. Thus one needs easy access to the tray. Proper installation is important. I often advise folks to take plants that have high water requirements to a sink of tub / shower to water them, if practical. That way they are most likely to get watered thoroughly without making a mess .

I appreciate your information very much.

Thanks. You're so helpful in how you teach us to care for our plants. You help take the confusion and stress out of houseplant care and explain things in a logical way! You have helped me and my plants! thanks

Enjoyed your show very much, and learned much about the diffenbachia with yellowing leaves. Now I know it's sap is very topic, so thank you, again. Good day now!

My dieffenbachia had yellowing leaves but I checked her and she had some black flies on it. Has been treated already but I do get the idea you've mentioned, I'll stop worrying for it from now on. :)

This was very useful in regards for us viewers know to logically adapt to our plants

Thank you

Wow, what a great, informative video. Now I gotta make time and binge watch all your videos lol.

Thank you for explaining how light meter works.

Just got a dumb cane. I put it in the sun room that has 6 large windows facing south. But it's like 55 degree in the room. Before I water I let the water sit 24-48 hours

I'm a new subscriber to your channel and oh how I love your way of explaining things. You sound so chill and not intimidating like other vloggers. I like hearing you that way because I feel like I wanna relax from stressful activities. Very informational too for plant enthusiasts like me! Keep going! You've got a fan here!

Of course Coffee comes first !!! before people where can we get help and shows us your plants

Thank you so so much!! I searched some photos online of mature and 6ft+ dumb canes and they all lost their lower leaves! This makes me feel so much better since I see new leaves from the top of my plant. Thank you!

Best advice, best presentation too! Thank you❤️

I love your beautiful healthy plants.

This video is great, mindset change of looking after my plants. Thank you, new subbie :)

KZfaq listening to me... haha. I just had a convo about these 2 plants and these 2 problems.... got home and BAM suggested. Haha

My diffenbachia was doing great until I decided to water it THOROUGHLY!! Now it’s drooping and yellowing. Overwatering definitely does that 😩 I wished this video showed how to help it if that happens

Thank you.

As a beginner, this video was very insightful, thank you!

Thank you!

Cafe` cafe` cafe` (coffee in Spanish) oh how much I love you so!

Great explanation on care and light! Thanks so much!

Thank you !!

I've had to make sure their water is a little warm. That worked wonders.

Im so happy to have found your channel. This was very informative. Thank you! New subscriber!

Thank you so much for the info you’ve been very helpful 👍🏽

I once heard a houseplant's life cycle described as "they ome from the garden of Eden where all the conditions are perfect, then when you bring them home they get plopped into purgatory, struggle for months, then get tossed into the abyss once they're not pretty enough."

So useful and helpful information, thank you. Keep doing what you’re doing!

This was a really helpful video. Can't wait to see more! 😊

anyone hear that high pitch monosound?

Thank you...trully appreciate your explanation, etc, keep up that green thumb 🌿👍

This was very helpful. I have a dieffenbachia I recently purchased. It is tiny with 6 little leaves. One has a brown tip and I was worried. I think my lighting and watering are ok and it is the oldest leaf. Has new ones growing too so must be ok.

Just a note on the trademark thing, you can propagate the plant for personal use you just can't propagate it for resale.

such a great video, thank you for this!

this made me feel so much better. i just barely started to own and take care of plants but i've been having so much trouble lately. i follow your instagram and it's been so helpful.

This is extremely helpful! Thank you!

Thanks for this video and happy to learn from you. I was looking for this video for a long time to save my yellowing dumb cane plant. Sure I am going to follow your advise and will check the progress. I am following you on Instagram.

Thank you so much for answering my question, somehow along the way I probably overwater or underwater my two plants that were planted together. Its been 2and half going on 3 years that I have these plants. I feed them with a liquid fertilizer in the growing seasons. Any more advice I really appreciate it. Oh I have my plants in a southern window. Thanks again, God bless.

Thank u so much for this piece of information. Def.helpful!

Love your videos they’ve really helped.

You are the BEST!

Hey man, just to let you know, there's a really high pitched frequency playing alongside your audio... you have some very helpful points ad good videos but I can't wat h this one without getting a headache, keep it up though, happy growing :)

Thank you very straight forward.

I have dumb cane. I would love for you to look at. It's doing something I never seen before

I have mine by the windows with blue skies... it still dying and turning yellow... and has some tiny black bugs on its 🍃 the sunlight shine on the plant for only a few hours of the day... but also they have been like this since I traveled for a month and my neighbor came to water them ONLY once... she said she came more but I have a camera at home so I know she did NOT... but anyways I come home and all my plants looked dead. I water once a week and my home temp is at 72 to 70 a week.

I loved this video! Learned so much! Thanks!

thank you, such a good professor. :D

This was awesome!!!

Plants do photosynthesize in artificial light too!

Great video lots of great info 👍thankyou!

I find it expensive, but will love to have one!

Thanks for your great explanation👍🏻 I have diffenbakhia plant a year ago It stopped growing but now it grows small leaves !!! I don’t know why😞

Thanks for sharing. Helped me improve. Take care

So helpful. Thank you!

Liked and subscribed to your channel. Thank you for helping us.

Can you give some information on why my leaves are continually turning yellow,. Even the new baby leaves turn yellow. Thank you. Great delivery.

What about artificial light? I've found lower light plants, such as my Maranta, Agleonema and Pothos situated under typical table lamps with traditional 2700K bulbs, grow and push new growth inspite of their lack of view of the natural sky....how does artificial light compare to natural light and do u know of other varieties that do well under these circumstances.

wonderful video! 🙏 thank you

Thankyou. I found this very helpful.

I put my dumb cane outside in partial shade and now I have a million tiny plants growing in the soil around the plant. I’m excited and nervous at the same time. Are they baby dumb canes or another type of plant? I’m so lost. I can’t wait to see what happens🫣

Thank you 🇨🇦😉

Thank you 🙏🏻

Probably a great video, but you do unfortunately have a high pitch noise in your video. I checked with different audio outlets of mine, so I must be your camera, microphone etc.

Very informative

Hi can you please help me ? I change my lily to a new pot but leaves are droopy and a little weak /jelly texture like only in some leaves I don’t know what to do ? Please help me ? Thanks

I definitely understand what you're saying as far as the diffs spending their older leaves to use that energy for the top but I get confused because I've seen diffenbachias that are 6+ feet tall and bushy from the base up.. can you explain that to me? Thanks for your video

You explainatoon was awesome thank u

My dumb cane has reached the ceiling. I repotted it…. Now the leaves are droopy 😕

Haha I watch this an hour too late. I went and cut off all the brown tips on my peace lily 😬

Helpful ❤️ Thanks 😊

Very detailed n clear

❤

Thanks your information on dieffenbachia was so helpful. Recently purchased one very thick and lush and now getting yellowing leaves. Many sites say low lite but moving closer to window since sun not too strong right now. When should I transplant having to water several times a week. Thanks

Great video! You have a new subscriber 😁

But here is the thing man; when you buy a peace lily from the nursery it is unlikely to have extensive brown tips and definitely not brown edges (hence the growers must be doing something differently to have luxurious big peace lily leaves looking pristine). 80% of my 20 houseplants are thriving but my Peace Lily is getting brown edges and tips. When this plant is thriving it steals the show, when it's not...oy vey. BTW I bought your book!

Help! So I’ve noticed that mine have become soggy where there is new growth
