a very sketchy philodendron glorious chop & repot + trying out a rousseau moss pole!

[@unplantparenthood]

Thanks for all the comments about the wall hook 😆 I promise it’s fine for now (I’m in california for another week) but I’ll fix it as soon as I’m back!

[@Joey11122]

I think the reason for the front straps on the moss poles are to hook your stem to the pole instead of using tape

[@The.weaving.witch.]

I was going to say this too! It'll help with the roots growing in too I think!

[@unplantparenthood]

i don't know why i didn't think of just strapping the whole stem in!! i'm definitely going to redo it!

[@PetraEmmy]

Soo rxciting! I have LOVED Fern's for awhile. I have had them in my "cart" a few times but its not in the budget.. So I admire them now in your home too! Enjoy your family. 💚🐶

[@melanieg.9092]

I usually don't enjoy hauls as in plants but plant stuff and seeing you excited and using it in the same video is great 😊❤

[@unplantparenthood]

i'm happy you enjoyed it!! thank you for watching 🥰

[@heidiparviainen4523]

Please put the hook more in to the wall and thats also upside down!!😱 But really loving the look of that pole and plant!😍

[@mindfulmadeline]

Okay i ordered some, just wanted to try, even tho i am stocked on moss poles atm lol. I love the idea of a front closing moss pole, it’s like a lazy pole 2.0. But I have tried a few of the thiccly brand ones, and those buckles are soooo damned fiddly! I just wish they were a little longer so it has some give. My sp. Columbia (yes its climbing) its stem is getting so thick its really really challenging getting the buckle over the next node. So hopefully these ones are a little more user friendly? I haven’t even watched the whole video yet. But I’ve seen @wildfern using these for awhile now so, were giving it a go!!

[@tynatheunicorn]

Hi, it was so fun watching you put up the whole thing :-) I'm going to miss the acrylic shelves though :/

[@crystalcrook2472]

It looks so good 💚

[@unplantparenthood]

thank you crystal!! ☺️

[@Hannah-dd3lo]

The ultrasound pics, so cute!❤

[@unplantparenthood]

thank you 🥹♥️

[@OfTheDarkIDare]

You are so adorable! I am dreaming of a hoya yves rocherii. Cannot find! I am in Los Angeles, but no luck yet. Sending you good vibes!

[@Shopgirl2731]

Queen! You did more in this video than I did all day !! Glorious looks great!

[@unplantparenthood]

haha! thank you for tooting my horn 😆 i feel like all i've been doing for the past few months is sleeping. growing a baby is tiring work 🥲

[@marylittlefield4761]

Thank you for sharing all your plant knowledge with us. Posting videos online is very courageous. We appreciate you and you are adorable! Don’t sweat the small stuff… dog nails in the floor.😉 May God bless your precious baby and family!💞

[@unplantparenthood]

aww thank you so much for the kind words mary!! i really appreciate that 🥹

[@ronjakh]

for the rousseau poles the front straps are supposed to keep the stem in place and in contact with the moss. You could even place the stem on top of the moss before closing the pole up if you wanted to 🙂

[@seara-beara]

i think the esqueleto would be great on the other stand!

[@aplantprocess]

Dream collaboration. Love the outcome.

[@unplantparenthood]

thank you for your support 🥹 i'm always so paranoid about collabs/sponsorships and am super picky about the ones i do, so this comment is super reassuring!!

[@ThatGirlShelbyy]

I am SO IN LOVE with all of those pillows and your entire background in this video! ❤❤ absolutely stunning 🤩 P.S - You're absolutely glowing🥰😍❤

[@carolstuff]

Nice looking planty supplies. Thanks for sharing!

[@crystaltennisco1252]

That hook needs to go in further!! It will fall if left like that 😢😅 Also she is so beautiful! Love watching, PG BC ❤

[@Carrie-jc3rl]

Agreed 100% plus it’s upside down.

[@gertie2734]

That hook is giving me anxiety 😂

[@lisaanglim9588]

After watching this, I’m positive that Fern has one of these set ups.

[@unplantparenthood]

she does! she's been growing the esqueleto i gifted her on it ☺️

[@lisaanglim9588]

I think that fern has one of these Rousseau poles. She’s got something that resembles this and she’s got something she has high on the wall where it gets more sun and to water it she just grabs the pole and lifts the whole thing down and then lifts it back up on the wall.

[@lisaanglim9588]

It’s nice to hear Pudges footsteps on the floor.

[@lisaanglim9588]

It’s big!! Especially the leaves sticking out.

[@path_of_sol]

😍

[@lisaanglim9588]

I think that if ever I get a second pole here I’m going to go for a Rousseau pole with a closed back. My one pole leaks out the back when I water it. I have to tilt it backwards since it leans forward in the pot. Or if I do t then it leaks out the front. It’s not an ideal situation. But I’m willing to try something else.

[@lisaanglim9588]

Peeling the film off is like peeling skin off after a sunburn. Lol 😂

[@katiewilliams9273]

If you look up track lighting, theres so many kinds and prices. Thank you for sharing

[@lisaanglim9588]

The nodes ho in the back, against the pole. Any arial roots go against the pole.

[@kymsalow7676]

I've been elbows deep in a massive spring repotting while I've watched this video. Pretty sure your mess isn't as bad as mine, or at least comparable. My dining room...😬

[@lisaanglim9588]

What size bags are those? They look like they hold a lot of stuff in them.

[@gablovesplantssydney]

Those hooks are fantastic for hanging things in drywall. But, I agree with some of the others, it is not far enough into the wall and is also upside down. Other than that, your glorious looks glorious !

[@shannoncarr7338]

you needed to put that pole into the soil hah

[@melanieg.9092]

Is it maybe because of the no drainage? I'm growing in drainage and always let my poles touch the bottom of the pot (and fill with potting mix everything buried) for stability 🤔

[@maryperry5910]

You could tie the leafs to the pole like sydneyplantguy then no bare spots

[@imoan1976]

There's no roots in the moss pole because you didn't use moss. You could have easily cut the plant in 2 equal pieces and then potted them up on a 'moss' pole, strapped the stems to the pole with clear bag or tape to encourage the roots to grow into the moss pole, kept it very moist for a few weeks and you would've had a much better result :) you may have had one or 2 smaller leaves but after that it would go back to larger leaves.

[@melanieg.9092]

The concept of moss poles also works with other substrates like coco chips or potting mix. As long as it stays moist and doesn't fall out of the pole structure 😅

[@unplantparenthood]

we all have our own way of doing things!

[@unplantparenthood]

@melanieg.9092 i've had such robust root growth in poles using moss+TFF or a soil mix like you said! after using only moss for years, i would never do it again. dries out super fast and hard to untangle if you want to remove the roots from the pole 😵‍💫

[@melanieg.9092]

@@unplantparenthood I'm still keeping with moss for my most precious plants but with some others I experiment with a 2:1 Coco coir and coco chips mixture right now, we'll see 😅👍

[@lisaanglim9588]

Wrap Velcro around the pit, holding it to the base. Otherwise it’s not attached to anything.

[@cristinaardelean5064]

❤

[@valme0w]

Hello hello! 😃

[@lisaanglim9588]

That pole seems huge around.

[@ritaelliott-cn7di]

I hope you see these comments before your plant falls off the wall. Only the little hook should be sticking out of the wall Open end up you have it upside down

[@unplantparenthood]

i'm aware! it surprisingly has held up for a few weeks now but i'll definitely be fixing it once i return from california!

[@vladdydaddy1280]

HOWDY🤠🤠

[@unplantparenthood]

HOWDY DOOO PARTNER 🤠🤠

[@totalvamp792]

You should watch how @wildfern does her ruso polls.

[@ritaelliott-cn7di]

You don't have that hook in the wall correctly

[@unplantparenthood]

I know! It’s fine as it is for now, my husband and I did a shake test when I first installed it because I wasn’t sure if it was done correctly. But when I’m back home in a week I’ll fix it!

[@imoan1976]

Gah... you used a non drainage pot. Moss poles need to be flushed through and kept moist for plants to thrive on moss poles, no way you can keep that pole wet with a no drainage pot. You'll just get root rot :( I screamed at you so many times during this video but each to their own, everyone does things differently I suppose.... but there's an old saying 'work smarter not harder' 😢

[@unplantparenthood]

I use a moss/tree fern fiber mix for all my poles with lots of success (in a no drainage vessel). This particular plant has been severely neglected over the past few months since I’ve been pregnant. But I grew this plant from a small specimen using the same growing method and you can see how large it’s grown since then. Also I’m pretty sure you’re new to my channel because 80% of my collection is in no drainage and it’s my preferred growing choice that I’ve had the most success with over the last 10+ years. So yes like you said, to each their own!
