Yes! Fully agree!

Yessssss!!

[@rebeccahenderson7761]

When you know you've over-watered, just remove the root-ball and wrap it in newspaper. When the newspaper gets soaked, wrap it with fresh - it really works.

[@PlantyGal05]

Plants have helped me the same way. My collection started when I was taking care of my aunt who eventually passed from breast cancer. I could care for and keep a plant alive when I knew I couldn’t do that for my aunt. So I have always loved plants but I really love them for being my therapy.

[@gailaturner5123]

Condolences, Auntie left you a great gift of life💜

[@PlantyGal05]

[@roseabee7503]

My mama's plants have done the same for me. She's been gone a year and her spider plant, that she had longer since I've been alive, never bloomed until this past year, giving me little spider plant babies that I have propagated and that I'm going to give to my aunts and my mother-in-law as sentimental Christmas gifts.

Hey Krystal I just wanted to let you know that I’m so so happy you’re making longer videos because your personality is so bright and fun and it brings me so much joy to watch you talk about something you’re passionate about. Keep it up girl❤️❤️❤️

I don't usually comment but girl I'm so glad you exist. First your fun shorts caught my attention, I think I was researching for my first ever flower pot care tips when I saw you and you, your love for plants, your plant rescues and your personality caught my attention and it was because of your rescues that I ever thought it wasn't too late and maybe I can become a good "plant mom". I wanted to get plants for the longest time and felt to overwhelmed and afraid they would die like the usually did... Anyways, I committed to my small flower pot journey and subscribed and repotted my flowers today (thanks to your tips) then I wanted to check your channel for a thorough guideline on plants, I watched your first long video and I had no idea you were in this time of your life and got to know you better and got more emotionally invested. Your enthusiasm for plants is the first I ever saw, it's refreshing and hope-giving. I thank you and rush you all the best just imagine I gave you a virtual hug. sorry for your loss and keep on being you. Thank you. (I haven't checked if you did but puh-leaaase do a dumb-proof video for beginners on how to care for plants, thank yooooou)

[@keliaduke6352]

I'm so glad you started to make long form videos. You're the reason I got into plants, you make them so fun and a Hobbie that I can do. My green thumbs have alot of red on them from previous attempts at owning plants lol. Your advice has helped me learn from those mistakes. Thank you!

When I was stressed and life got chaotic in college, plant care always grounded me. I have over a hundred different plants in an 800 sqft area lol. There's always something I *could* be doing. They're great for all kinds of reasons. In fact, just having living plants inside has been proven to improve the mental well being of people. So. Yeah.

[@la_gobba_di_aigor]

Krystal!! I have to really thank you. Thanks to you I've been constantly buying, caring and putting effort into plant care. It's been quite a rough year, where I felt little to no control over my life and I've got to say taking care of plants has made my monkey brain release an appropriate dosage of endorphins, and that I truly needed. Also mistakes happen and I will gladly share my terrible plant parenting because we're all in the same boat: I mist my begonia wightii for a month before discovering it was one of the biggest no-nos for begonias and now she has crispy brown leaves all over her. It's comforting to see that even the plant queen herself happens to have a misstep once in a while...

Hanging plants tend to let water go off their leaves quicker, technically more "evapotranspiration" because they are high and get more wind. That is why they behave as succulents. 🤓🌵

[@dariasmeh]

🎥🌺💃 Intro suggestion alert, Krystal! You can start the video with an edit where you have the first cut as “I did an oopsies, a big oopsies with my string of hearts.” Then cut to “Hi, if you’re new here my name is Krystal and I go by Plants with Krystal.” And continue the video from there. I’ve seen other creators do this. Gives us a flavour of the video, tickles us with a chuckle, and eliminates the awkward “how to start the video” problem. I’ll watch the rest later because I have some work to do but I wanted to drop the suggestion. Look forward to some plant edu-ma-cation later!
