Building a DIY Plant Wall & Unboxing Mother Grow Light

[@LeafyLuster]

Hi everyone, so what do we think about the plants on planks and the plantstand itself? Btw. I think the Ph. Mamei is actually a crawling plant and I might have done an upsie there. Maybe I'll switch it out in the future 😅. If you are on the search for more plant inspiration, here is my Wishlist: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKvKapl5nNF-l7c

[@Jennn460]

Beautiful! :) looking forward to updates.

[@LeafyLuster]

Thank you Jen, I am so excited for the future as well. 🤗🤗 Can't wait to see how my plants on planks will do. I will definetly share updates from time to time!

[@MichelleMonstera]

Love that you had a progress update at the end! And so cool to be sponsored by Mother grow lights!!

[@LeafyLuster]

Thank you Michelle 💚, I did want to test it first before recommending anything 😊. But I am truly over the moon that I got the opportunity to work with mother. I just wrote an innitiative email and they were actually down to give it a go, even though I am still such a small creator. Blew my mind 😅 but I am very greatful for that.

[@jds1421]

Worth a subscribe solely for your updates towards the end and how informative your videos are. Beautifully done.

[@LeafyLuster]

Awww thank you so much, that's so sweet. You made my day 💚. I can tell you that by now I needed to lower the light a little bit, because the small plants further down were not getting enough light. They do grow but you can tell the leaves are getting a little smaller. Other than that they still seem to do well :) See u in the next video 🖐.

[@ArthurGrey.]

Would love to see a 6 month update on this if you feel up to it/have the time! This is one of my favourite videos of yours, it's a great one to re-watch.

[@LeafyLuster]

Uhh that is a great idea. I wanted to do this anyways but I haven't realized it is already almost half a year since I built the plantwall 🙈. I guess the video will most likely happen in December/January. :)

[@ArthurGrey.]

@@LeafyLuster Yess, I'm looking forward to it! I absolutely love seeing update videos.🥰

[@Weirder_the_better]

It makes me so crazy happy to see you getting sponsors for your videos. You deserve it!! It turned out beautifully and I've heard these growlights are amazing so I can't wait to watch the growth!

[@LeafyLuster]

Thaaank you so much Bridget, you always find the kindest words 💚. I'm super stoked about the Sponsorship as well, I just asked them for any work opportunity and they actually said yes. Sometimes really all you need to do is ask 😊. About the plant wall, what can I say, I'm in love! It was so simple to make, yet it added so much to the look of our apartment.

[@karenleeramos]

Looks amazing 😍 Can't wait to see how this does!

[@LeafyLuster]

Thank you Karen, I'm so excited too! I am glad that most plants are already pushing some new growth, so I am confident it will fill out nicely 🥰.

[@amandaberglill]

I love that plank wall idea 😍🌿

[@LeafyLuster]

Yay! Thank you! 💚 I am so glad I followed up on this idea, because it really adds a special touch to our apartment and it turned out amazing 😊. I can also imagine the plank wall just as a dekor element in any home. Looks great even without any plants in front.

[@kathymacgregor2173]

This plant wall is the absolutely gorgeous! 🌿🌿 Luv your channel!

[@LeafyLuster]

Thank you Kathy! 💚 The wall really did turn out great, I agree. Only issue is now I'm fixed on making over even more spaces in our small flat 😅 Oopsies.

[@Anil18834]

Hi, I know this is an old video, but helping the algorithm, you know... I looove that you toot your own horn! Go ahead, celebrate your achievements. They are the fruit of your efforts 🎉 Your wall and planter are great. Where did you get this planter?

[@LeafyLuster]

Oh thank you Anil! That's so sweet of you 🙏, I got the planter off the internet but it's manufactured by a polish Company and distributed to lot's of different sellers, because I found the same planter sold by various different shops. e.g. www.amazon.de/Alfalux-KAN4030-Wooden-Balcony-Terrace/dp/B0846LTNC4?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1

[@PLFoon]

Nice can’t wait to see the plant taking over d wall

[@LeafyLuster]

Ahhh it will be glorious ....well hopefully 😅🤞 Thank you for stopping by 💚.

[@yaindyroque12]

It looks beautiful !! I have a mother light too and I love it ! Hope you share some updates on how they are doing in the future 😊

[@LeafyLuster]

Thank you 💚. How cool, I have only heard good things about the lights and now that I was able to try it out myself, I am really impressed with the strength and the color 😊😊. Where did you attach yours ? In a growshelf or cabinet?

[@LeafyLuster]

oh and of course there will be updates from time to time 🤗 good or bad 😅.

[@DzejlanJaylaHadziefendic]

Hi!! I am binge watching your videos! They are great! I am so glad I found you channel - it was mentioned in by Richard - Sheffield Plants channel

[@LeafyLuster]

Awesome! Thank you& welcome Dzejlan 😉!

[@laxmithapa4056]

what a transformation and use of the space, i loved this project, u executed very well...it was informative and so entertaining like always but what i liked the most was the time-lapse of the 22 days after u installed everything.. Hence, proved that you are not only entertainer but also a scientist ;) keep it up Kristina :D

[@LeafyLuster]

Awww thank you so much Laxmi! Haha yes, what can I say, science is my passion 😂😂😂. But truly I just wanted to test out the light before recommending anything to you guys.

[@iheartJeriLee]

liebe Kristina. das sieht total schön aus 😍😍😍😍😍

[@LeafyLuster]

Ahhh vielen lieben Dank, schön das du schreibst. 💚 Muss sagen die Wand gefällt mir auch immernoch so gut wie am ersten Tag. Das ganze Projekt hat auch wirklich Spaß gemacht 😁

[@ashleygonzalez5886]

Wow! This is such an amazing and well thought out/put together video! I’m in love with your wall! I can’t wait to see progress updates and see how beautiful it will look once they are climbing and trailing over. Thank you so much for sharing every step of the way. Especially being able to give a few weeks update at the end was just perfect! You did a stunning job! 🫶🏽♥️🥰🌱☀️

[@LeafyLuster]

Oh Ashley, you are so sweet! Thank you so much for the kind words. I had so much fun building it & I am very proud of how nice it actually turned out. I should do an update on it soon 😊. I'm glad you enjoyed it 😉.

[@EverythingPlants]

This turned out so great! And my goodness....your shots and editing are superb! It must have taken you FOREVER.

[@LeafyLuster]

I agree, the wall is great even just as a decorative element in the flat. And YES it has taken forever, but I'm very proud of the outcome 🥰. It was such a fun project which made editing very enjoyable as well 😁.

[@dansie87]

was already going for a new plant light. Guess i found it. Super video and alot of work. Great Job

[@LeafyLuster]

Glad I could help & thanks a lot 💚.

[@junepark1003]

This is so pretty!

[@LeafyLuster]

Thanks June, I'm so glad it all turned out as I imagined it. It really elevated the space soooo much 🥰

[@catherinesaulnier5448]

Beautiful ❤️

[@LeafyLuster]

Thank you Catherine 💚

[@ateesz182]

From 60cm it says 16 umol/sec. Thats around 0.69 DLI if its kept on for 12 hours. Deliciosa needs around 4 Dli per day at least I think but please correct me if im wrong. It is a beautiful light but you have to put super close to your plant in order to be effective.

[@LeafyLuster]

Thanks for the words of advice. You might be right, the light alone probably isn't enough to sustain those plants. At least not from that hight. I am currently observing the plants, to see if they keep growing fine. If need be I can still adjust the light and hang it lower. Fortunately there is some daylight coming in. I'm hoping it adds up to be enough in the end. I am a little bit worried about the small plants on the bottom of the planter since those are farthest away from the light source. For now they all look fine but if I notice anything I can still adjust. Oh and I also bumped up the lighting hours to 16h. Just working off the infos that mother provides, the Monstera needs minimum 2mol/m^2/day (recommended is 4mol/m^2/day) and the hight of light is provided with 100cm +12-16h. The stupid light meter I bought years ago can only measure lux and fc so it's not really of much use. I'll definetly share updates if this wall turns out to be faulted.

[@PSteem]

Hi Kristina, really like the wall. lets hope the plants grow well, but that shouldn't be a problem with the growlight. Question: did you make the wooden planter yourself or is it store bought and if bought, were?

[@LeafyLuster]

Hi 😊 First off, thank you 💚. I did not build the planter myself, it came prebuilt like that. Delivered directly to my door. I just searched for wooden planters in the size that I needed. This one came up over and over again. From many different distributors but always the same manufacturer. Not sure if it is available where you live but it is this one: amzn.to/3NnkyOL I have seen very similar ones in my local hardwear stores and garden centers too.

[@vheybzmarasigan1759]
