I'm in mobile Alabama and these worms are on the pecan tree every freaking year and I'm looking for a way to stop it this year. It's humid here year around and I can not prune every limb on the tree plus I'm a disabled veteran so I have some limitations. I heard that some older folks in the old days use to smoke the pecan trees to keep the worms infestation down. I wonder how that works

How long will the almond verbena last in a vase?

Thank you. Very helpful information

Mine “shed” it’s “antlers” one by one, no discoloration. What happened?!

I appreciate your video very much. I was gifted 3 staghorn ferns from my very generous neighbor and I am looking forward to learning more about the care of these beauties. Love Snickers too!

Mark Kay, thank you so much for this information! I just had to rescue a hydrangea standard from a huge web of these! It was killing my tree and the mature bugs were eating my leaves to bits! So gross!!! Thanks again from Georgia!!!

Awesome video, so informative!! The best explanation on the net!!! Thank you!!!

Thank you for your help! God Bless

Thank you for your help! My FIG trees thank you too!!

I've been using an orchid mist fertilizer from miracle grow and it has been working wonderfully. I also speak once a week(usually in an extremely diluted used coffee grounds water) they have started doing so much better since I've started the orchid mist though.

😊 thank you

Question for you Mary. Do we need to water like this everyday or what is the right frequency? I’m looking forward to hearing from you please!

Hi Mary, I can’t thank you enough for this video. I’ve been afraid of overwatering but after watching your video I now have a good understanding of how to water.

How did I not know this... Thank you.

I would like to see how to divide it when it's gotten too big. 🧐

GREAT INFORMATION!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Its funny but the reason i can here to utube was because my outside potted fig tree keeps drying out...wow!!! I RESPECT PROFESIONALS. UR AWESOME!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Wish I would have known this technique years ago!

Mary….thank you for this helpful video! It all makes total sense! Question; won’t the plant soil lose a lot of nutrients if flushed so thoroughly each watering?

Thank you I have two in an apartment S/E window so far so good

Thankyou. I just purchased one for our home and am looking forward to seeing it thrive and grow.

Thank you! I work in a nursery but don’t have much guidance - your videos are a godsend ❤

Very helpful, thank you!

Thank you so much! This was very helpful and I love your passion for these plants. I am trying to build a small garden on my patio that has morning sun and afternoon shade

Too many hurricanes and lost trees in my yard here in Forida on Beachside. Now my staghorn I've had for 50 years is turning yellow, getting too much sun hanging on the same tree it's been on forever, but all the trees around it filtering the light are gone due to hurricanes. Thanks for the info. PS WOW, does it love very ripe bananas I stick on it!

Learned a lot from your video. Where can I purchase the display you have on the wall with the air plants?

I left my stag in the frost over night.. can I fix it

I'm still learning from you guys exclamation mark and I keep going back to your videos to do a quick refresher every year

Awww I wish you'd listed the names of these plants in th description

Your cat doesnt poop in your garden beds? Whole bunch of stray cats poop on my property and in my garden beds. I never had a cat. Are they all like this or is it possible to potty train them not to poo in your yard?

You came to the wrong neighbourhood, Snicker.

Thanks for sharing this.

I have them in my birch trees it is terrible they are dying I am sure? They are 57 years old . Your thoughts if I have 4 birch one bag do they go and eat others close by?

I don't believe this video. If I water my house plants this much they will have root rot the next day. 1 bottle of water and its wet a week later.

Hello snickers

Please specify the link for buying it

What an informative video! Just got a staghorn clipping and you answered all my questions. And Snickers made it entertaining!

Thank YOU!!

That is good info. Back in the 80s, I found that white wash, limestone powder, does the trick to keep the worms and moths away.

I really enjoyed this video.

Very nice explanation

Excellent advice and demonstration! Our knockout roses are over 6 ft. tall, so this will help.

I am so grateful, I was always told you are to pull the roots apart in the new pot and pot much larger so it could grow in and I've always killed plants. So grateful for your guidance and to know how to do it properly, thank you.

I used to water potted plants daily in the summer in NYC Not this year, it's very odd. Maybe it's the humidity? Idk Never experienced this before. Hmm

Thank you

Would you water a Gardenia the same way? I worry about overwatering mine and having the soil be soggy. I just purchased some "cactus blend" allegedly fast draining soil thinking to use it with the Gardenias, and tested it in the sink... putting a lot of water in it does make it soggy.. I mean by soggy, that you can squeeze it and have water come out of it. Isn't that a problem for Gardenias if you put too much water in that pot? When the soil is that dry where the water rushes out the bottom, I assume you wont' see air bubbles, so how would you know when you are done watering a plant that got that dry? I thought that if you put too much water, the soil inside the pot can get soggy? I am afraid of overwatering my Gardenias because I believe they were already overwatered and may have some root rot/damage as a result. I am planning on treating it with hydrogen peroxide to try to remedy that, hoping it has enough healthy roots left to survive. But I am trying to figure out the best way to water my potted gardenias so they don't get overwatered. Are you SURE that potting soil won't get soggy if you water it that much!? Also, will that much water flush out any fertilizers that I have used? I have to use chelated minerals in an acid plant fertilizer as I try to correct the PH because the place I bought it did not keep the soil acidic. Now I have been having iron and magnesium deficiencie because of the PH, but also recently a nitrogen deficiency despite watering recently with a plant food. I worry that either too much water, or possibly damaged roots are causing the problem. Can too much water flush the fertilizer out of the soil? The water does come out the bottom pretty quick because I am trying to let the soil dry a bit between waterings. I would love to know when it's time to water potted gardenias based on what the soil meter says as it goes 3-4" deep into the pot.

Hi really enjoyed your video. I live in hot Florida and have a xerographica air plant, would you recommend I water it several times a day or week?

Do you wuse the same technique for cacti and succulents? Thanks, so glad I came across your channel!

This is the best watering KZbin I've seen! I really misunderstood the whole process all these years. Thanks 😊

Can I do this with a razor blade?

This is the best detailed and thorough video on this subject!! Really good! Thank you so much!!!
