45 min + is my favourite video length. I love longer videos for plant chore days though 😊

I like 15-25 minute videos! Somehow I have trouble committing to watching a 45 min video, but I can easily watch three or four 20 minute videos in a row? This was so fun to watch, I'm jealous of your planty friends!

Love the longer videos, sometimes the ones under 30 minutes are just too short. But, honestly it really comes down to what the video is about! What a relaxing video! Loved seeing what you guys did with Erin’s plants!

Erin has some big, gorgeous plants! I know I would have been a little intimidated to try some of those repots by myself, so it's awesome that she has friends like you and Charmaine to help out. And her tent! Just wow. I enjoy videos that are anywhere between 30-60 minutes.

I’m 56 and just NOW left bartendinf after 20 years of it. The money was amazing and it allowed my girls to be with mom during the day and dad at night. I work for the United States Post Office now, it’s been one year! I’m broke 🤣

@youdontevengrowhere 2 жыл бұрын

There’s also something incredibly addicting about making beverages for people and the satisfaction of a highly productive shift well done, I think it also plays into a nurturing instinct - speaking as a barista 14 years deep (the money isn’t quite the same though 🤣)

Oh wait I’m not done I think I like varying video lengths sometimes I don’t have the capacity or the time to watch a longer video that’s when I kind of 🐿 squirrel them away for a better time but then also I feel weird not watching RIGHT AWAY and other times the longer ones are welcome because we love frienderinos

Z Z plants are such an easy plant and low maintenance i have the Raven and the regular one and also the compact zenzi one too. I really love your friendship group that you all have with each other. It is so hard to find good friends and when you do you really need to cherish them. I feel friends we meet in school, college and work places can drift apart as time goes by. I find that you can be the only one who makes all the effort which i was and people can take advantage of that. So now i find it hard to make new friends now who appreciate you. I love homes with big windows and high ceilings if i had that I definitely would grow tall plants too they really make a statement in your home.

@youdontevengrowhere 2 жыл бұрын

100% agree - making close friends in adulthood is tough because there’s nothing forcing you to be together (e.g. school or work). I hope my next home has floor to ceiling windows!!! 😍

I wonder where Erin got that large pot for the McDowell? It looks like it’s got a self watering aspect to it.

I need to find moar plant frandsss that can turn into friends! I totally agree that it's hard to make friends here outside of work and school. My own friend group from way back are growing apart and honestly all my closer friends are my co workers, just because we created this bond where we all went through tough times working at the covid sites for past two years.

@youdontevengrowhere 2 жыл бұрын

Pink solution (pinksolution.ca/products/clean) is a gentle all purpose cleaner that has helped me get off super stubborn pesticide stains on some of my imported plants in the past, although I didn’t actually end up needing it for this ZZ! I only use it if I absolutely need to though

Thank you Tina!! I completely forgot to pop a photo up for pink solution but it’s a gentle all purpose cleaner that has helped me get off that milky pesticide residue when castille soap couldn’t do the job. I only use when I absolutely need to though, because it can strip some wax off the foliage. pinksolution.ca/products/clean

Do you rinse lechuza pon before use? 🌿

@youdontevengrowhere 2 жыл бұрын

I like to pre rinse pon especially if potting without drainage, but if you’re potting with drainage it’s possible to rinse after potting. This lechuza self watering pot we used has drainage so Erin can flush sediment out later if she wants!

@@youdontevengrowhere in Poland it is kinda "forbidden" in the plant community to pot without rinsing 😂
