I actually felt breathing the cleanest air from watching this video

I live in a really dark room, I grow mushroom instead

Falling in love with plants on Instagram is too easy, specially because people place the plants on unrealistic areas just for a pic...

Every new plant owner should watch this. In fact, experienced plant owners would probably learn something here too. Thorough explanations and very informative. Thank you.

You literally live in a green house 🏡 🌱

This video is great, I love you being the representative of all the young people getting into the hobby! I feel really lucky getting to watch your greatly produced videos and learn from you ❤️🏵️

This is the most helpful, I repeat THE MOST HELPFUL plant video I’ve EVER seen. Thank you for the time you took to prepare this.

A superb video, especially for beginners. I love how you break it down and explain it in a simple and straightforward manner.

first came on to her from seeing her in the news. Didn't realize she's making a career out of this. This video series seems to be exactly what i was looking for. Her delivery is precise and slow enough to where I can process what she's saying and not have to rewind the video (most people I've seen speak a mile a minute). I also love the video quality of this. Looking forward to watching the others.

My wife and I love watching your videos. Thanks for the hard work and knowledge bombs.

Wow. Today, I literally was trying to rearrange my plants according to the natural lighting in my home. I was also looking for a light meter. ..then, you upload this video. Very informative and helpful. Thank you! 😊

I'm on the verge of a pannick attack in self isolation, can't sleep for 2 days and your soothing voice and beautiful house just made me feel so fuzzy on the inside. Thank you

This is simply one of the best videos on plants I have ever watched on KZfaq, and it is going to help me with bringing my houseplants into the home over autumn and winter for the first time since I bought them and had them outside over spring and summer. I now understand how to gauge the correct amount of light for my plants, and I hope it'll ensure survival of them. Thank you for putting out this video for plant-parent-hopefuls like me.

You're so informative. Summer would you be able to test the air quality of your apartment & maybe upload it in one of your future videos? I am dying to know if that many plants will make a significant difference in air quality. Much love

Can you imagine the level of anxiety if you had all these plants and had to leave town for a few days?

She's like a crazy cat lady, but with plants.

I've just started buying and taking care of plants and this has to be, hands down, the best video that I have watched so far. A very scientific take, very structured and I am so glad I found this!

Wow that was the most adorable way to tell about skin cancer, I'm on love with that girl.. subscribed and waiting for new episode, that s literally the best channel about house plants :3

Summer - you saved my life. I always went out and bought some random plants when I thought they look beautiful. Nearly all plants died on me and I always thought it’s my fault and I only bought some plastic plants cause I didn’t wanna kill them all. Now I can start to grow some plants in the condition they need. Thanks for giving your advice. Now I’m excited to start my home garden.

i learn how i care when i kill a plant.. now i have 44 perfect and happy plants. :D but i need more and more!! =D (sorry my english, i'm from Portugal)

Greetings from Poland I have 20 plants in my apartment already but I can’t stop because of you. YOU TRULY INSPIRE ME

You are such a great teacher. The best plant 101 video I’ve ever watched. Thanks so much!

Thank you so so much for how much detail you went into and how far down you broke light requirements. I had no idea what low-medium and highlight were supposed to mean for houseplants, but this helps me think like a plant, thank you!!

What a wealth of information, Summer. It is such a pleasure watching you talk about your passion in such detail. Thank you for inspiring me to dig deeper into the world of home gardening. Keep up the good work!

3:20 i was shocked to know that was your kitchen..!!

I only clicked on this video because your home is so beautiful with all the plants.i stayed because of the beauty too and now I know a lot about plants😂😂

This is some great advice...just to add a little of my own knowledge...instead of fluorescent bulbs, you can get full spectrum LED lights that include the "warm" tones the fluorescent tubes lack. They also consume a lot less energy. This will also aid plants to flower if they are so inclined (flowering plants need the warm spectrum). Also, I would not advise a humidifier. Instead place a plant on a tray of moistened pebbles (just dont let the water get as high as the drainage holes), and they will get more than enough humidity and you wont be promoting growth of something you dont want...mold. Also, how clean your windows are will also affect your light...clean windows = more light (not an easy task in a bustling city environment). Also...lots of plants can be easily propagated simply by sticking a small cutting in water and left in a sunny window. I have two 8 foot ficus trees that I propagated doing just that that I took from a plant that someone had thrown out in an alley (it had a piece that wasnt dead...that was over 20 years ago) so you dont even always have to spend money on a new plant! One more thing...be aware of the active growing season for your plants...just like the rest of us...they require a rest period. Just like we can't keep going all the time...there are times of the year when a plant needs to slow down and chill out...if you let them rest...they will grow much faster and healthier when the active growth time comes around (this is really important if you use grow lights since they dont mimic the seasons like natural light). When a plant is resting, it doesnt need quite as much water or fertilizer. Hope some of you find this as a useful add on to a great video.

This was so helpful, so informative and clearly and concisely delivered. Thank you so much 😊🌱🍀

This video is a tour de force! Fyi: I still use an actual compass. No service? I can still get you there 😊👍

Imagine how clean the air she breaths in

I’ve been binge watching plant videos these days. All plant lovers are nice and kind. But you are the exact plant role model I’ve been looking for 😱😱 Starting the journey with observing and understanding light is so refreshing and inspiring. I wish I knew this from the beginning but as you said, not all hope is lost 🍀🍀

I can't say I'm your first subscriber, but have been on the journey since Plant One On Me episode 001. This one is great, but I'm still waiting on your episode about pots and planters. You have the coolest around.

Oh my god so beautiful how do you have time to water them all

Great video Summer im so glad you explained the light and showed it as well such a good teacher thanks so much❤

Imagine moving to a new place with all these plants

This is the first video I watched on houseplants, a year ago, in preparation for my first houseplant haul. I had never heard of some of these plants till then! I took notes which I still keep. I come back to this channel constantly for information, as well as for enternainment :)

This is a really nice explanation of light. Will help me keep things in mind when I'm moving out of the apartment!

I honestly can not express how much I appreciated every second of this video, Summer. I needed this info so badly a few years ago when I 1st began growing houseplants and I've since learned much of this by trial and error BUT I still learned so much from this video and information mainly because of the excellent way you were able to actually demonstrate lighting situations!!! I feel so much better equipped to properly figure out and assess my own lighting situations now and that is invaluable. You know how much I LOVE your videos but I'll say it again...love what you're doing and I am always thankful! 😊 ~Len 💚🌿💚🙏🏽

Thanks for making botany cool! So informative. I appreciate all of the work you put into creating your videos💕

Finally someone who addresses light! Thank you!!

What a wonderful video about something that most people don't send enough time thinking about. Thank you!

Wow! Thank you for this well thought out and explained video. My plant obsession is fairly new but the more that I learn, the more important I am realizing that the level of light I am able to provide is. All new plant lovers need to see this.

Beyond amazing video here! This woman is on another level on plant care - super zen! Learnt alot so thanks!

I'm fairly new to houseplants, mine are thriving in my North and west facing windows in the UK, South is full sun as I know my back garden is south facing. I have a pergola covered with a climbing rose which provides shade for my south windows which has been good. I think every window sill in my house is covered in plants, plus hanging from curtain rods. Very useful info.

You are downright delightful. Thanks for the good info!

I really am into plants, I am a registered librarian already, and because of this obsession into plants -- I make my library a green house plants, that I really loved about. It even entices my students to go to the library.

Ohh Girl I thought I was bananas having all this plants in my department but seen your I still not on that extreme yet😂 Definitely love ❤️ all your videos and your kindness with all that information ❤️🙏

THIS WAS THE MOST IN DEPTH INFORMATIVE VIDEO I NEEDED TO WATCH! I have a south facing window that barely receieves light, maybe an hour a day in Winter and a few hours in the summer, but i can tell it's burned some leaves on my Song of India plant, and that my grow lights may have damaged my Skindaptus Pictus! Thank you so much for touching on this, big help!! I know what to do now!

Love these types of videos we are getting recently, lighting is so hard to figure out! I'd love more in depth info on grow lights and how to use them properly. What types, the light they give out, how to set them up and how near your plants they need to be etc.

I love gardening and I have quite a few plants inside my home and in the balcony. I find your videos super informative and extremely refreshing ! I can watch them back to back ! Lots of love and power to you ! 💕

Man, your editing is spot on. Awesome video.

This is definitely the video for me. I have started filling my house with plants. Have no idea what I'm doing. I have ferns right now. I have the snake plant. And I have Ivy plants.

Your home is beautiful! Love the light coming through the windows and leaves giving everything that natural and green color

I've just discovered your channel You're my new favourite human.

I really appreciate the intro. I always just thought I had a black thumb because I even killed a few succulents but the more I tried and kept at it, the more I realized that wasn't true! This year I even forayed into growing food and it worked out pretty well. :) Much better than I expected. Nowadays most of my plants stay alive!

Hey Summer &Greetings from middle of nowhere! :) Great video (you are terrific speaker/orator, I like how well organized &thought out your message is &whoever does the filming/editing is doing an awesome job), love your channel. Have a very pleasant day!

Love love love this episode. Very informative

I love your explanation as well as I love plants!!! I have learned a lot about location where plants should be placed!!! Thank you!

Can you do a vedio on terraium plants from open and closed terrariums

Thank you! I just started my indoor plant journey and am so grateful for your videos!

I absolutely loved this video. I love how you broke down lighting. Thank you thank you

All your plants are lovely but I am in awe with your succulents

I just moved to a new place and I only get low-medium light. I SO miss my Southeast-facing window because I used to watch the Sun rise every morning, it was the best lighting for my plants and I could literally see New York from there!! So from now on wherever I move from here will definitely have a Southeast-facing window from now on!!🥰

Your explanation of light helped me so very much. Thank you.

omg finally someone talking about northeast and southeast windows FINALLY

I have a ZZ plant that is sitting in a corner of my room and it seems to being doing perfectly fine, it don't get watered a lot either.

Summmmer you are soooo GOOD AT DROPPING THE PLANT KNOWLEDGE....🥰! Two videos in one day equals....HAPPY CAMPER😁

How have you learned all this knowledge? Even most experienced planters don’t seem to know as much or explain as clearly as you do Thank you 😂👍🏻

thank you! this is very helpful! before i stumbled upon this video, i've tried observing the light coming to my home using a compass app and a lightmeter app. i guess i did the right thing

I absolutely LOVED this video, it is full of useful information and you explain things in a way that’s very engaging. Loved it!

I watching this video triple times, thanks for your sharing.

PLANTS EAT LIGHT.... I never thought of it that way and those words are disturbing me and now I love it

Hello from Romania! I subscribed seeing what I have seen. I struggle for space and light too and my windows are all facing North in a temperate climate. In front of my window are block of flats and 40 years old trees and from East another block is semi-blocking the light. Imagine I grow orchids, all types, anthurium and sanseveria, draecena, lilies, gloxinia, fresies, lavander, oregano, mint and irises. All are growing flower spikes because I supliment with artificial light.

thanks for the excellent overview! ... figuring out indoor lighting here needs considering the seasonal positioning of the sun being higher in the summer and low in the winter with every changing rising and setting positions, as well as having large trees surrounding a home so being in leaf or not changes things and then having a large overhang also effects things since the high summer sun is shaded and low winter sun comes right in... yikes it's all so very confusing lol.... very much appreciate all your inspiration and wonderful information and no doubt will figure out this changing lighting business eventually... :)

Summer, as a cameraperson, a new plantperson and a fan of good, concise science education, i have to say that I'm impressed with you guys. This has such solid cinematography and editing to show clearly what you are saying. Great "script" and hosting btw (i can't tell if you wrote everything down and did 20 takes or if you're just that good now). This vid also made me realize that i may not really need it and am no longer a total beginner... ...and i have you to thank for that. Cheers.

WOW! I have been watching many of your videos for the past three days. Your videos are so well done and offer me all the information I have been looking for over the past 2 years. You explain it in a way that is easy to understand. Now I know I have SW light. I am looking to find out why my spider plant leaves all have cracks, even the new growth gets cracks, and it has not had babies (I had it over 1 1/2 years) I will keep searching through your videos for the answer. Thank you so much. Judy

I've got plants that were thrown away and not knowing how to care for them, this helps.

I love this video! 💚🌿 This is incredibly useful information for every user when it comes to plant placement and the details to help it thrive 🌿! Great video💚!

Loved this video. So informative and clearly explained. Thanks Summer!!!

Simply amazing all the plants you have in your home! I live in a warehouse with no windows. After a couple years I finally got grow lights as I missed having plants! It is a learning curve but despite loosing a couple I have many. Home depot is really good about refunds when you keep the receipt and original pot if you do kill one. Thanks for your information as it probably saved quite a few plant friends!

Totally agree. Light level is crucial for house plants. I use an app on App Store called MQ GreenThumb to measure the light levels around my house. Light can be measured in lux or foot-candle.

These videos break my heart. I would give anything to be surrounded by so many plants but I live in a townhouse with very little natural light and my boyfriend is a heathen that does everything in his power to make it darker than it already is lol

Thanks for your videos, it makes it easier to care for my plants.

Ooooh Summer!! This is like 10 years to late but so necessary!!! I LOVE IT!!! WooHoo!!! Thank You!!!

I couldnt help but notice Joey's photograph in your living room 👌👏

11:48 is that a plant or are you just happy to see me? 😳🌵

A real compass will always beat a smartphone everyone should have one!

This video came on while I was eating a pbj sandwich with aloe Vera gell in it. I'm inspired to clean my whole appartment now and start an indoor garden.

Hi Summer, I literally have to stop the video to write to you this message. Thanks so much for this video, you are absolutely right about the light intensity. I have an actual small compass to understand the direction so I can put my plants accordingly and most of them are doing right. Is it possible to make videos exclusively on Philodendrons as they are my newest obsession(pls. pls)Also I keep on seeing your Peperomia videos to treat mine more perfectly. So far few good but few are disasters :)

I could listen to her voice all day

My plants wither for no reason at all and I was just like why won’t u talk to me! What u need?! Thank god I found this video

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️thank you so much for the information!! It help me out so much with my plants 🌱

I just discovered this channel and it is the best thing ever. Simply awesome, thank you! So much to learn on this plant caring journey :)

Thank you for your amazing and informative videos, as always. With your help I have transformed my previously black thumb into a green one over the last few years and now have a collection of thriving beauties.

Hi Summer, I appreciate your sharing. It's very helpful to me. Hope more plants in this crazy world!

Thank you your the high light of my day. I can't wait to get my hands on your book.

Would you consider making videos on urban vegetable gardening? I love listening to your voice, looking at you in your videos, and believe in what you are saying, so I'm hoping you could make videos on food production.

Me, I have a regular compass, as part of my essential trekking gear :D thank you for this very educational video!

Wow, you've really, gone all out with your plant growing. Love all the warm, earthy, tones you have throughout your place, from what I see in this video, apart from the plants themselves. Even though you appear to have a lot of brick walls, they are not harsh or cold, at all. I'm relaxing here, simply, by looking at the images. Why people prefer to have everything white and bare is utterly, beyond me. I'm in the middle of a blizzard right now, as I type this, on January 17th, 2020, so this is such a treat for me. So would love to be there, right now, amoung all those beautiful plants you have. You may have killed many plants in the past, but you certainly, seem to be doing a damn, fine job now. My Best. Best of 2020. Out.

Have you tried to use LED Spots on your plants? If you have dark corners in your home try to "feed" you plants with LED light. I have been very sceptical about that idea but as far as I can tell it actually works. I do grow all sorts of plant also aquariums plants and carnivores like Venus Flytraps and the LED spots are working great. By the way, I love your videos and how your home looks like. And, yes, you are very inspiring.
