How To Be a Plant Mama 🌿 - Indoor Plants for Beginners

[@AlinaAlign]

Hey friends! I just made a brand new video on how to take a larger plant and divide it to get multiple plants (i.e. propagation to soil & water)! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYXRqXyFm6tghbc

[@aquafina6544]

Hi 👋 im a new subbie. Where is your follow up video on the fertilizer etc.. do you have other care videos for specific plants?

[@QuettaRenae425]

I painted my plant’s pot like Pooh Bear’s honey jar haha & named her Hunny so when I come home I can say “Hunnyyyyy I’m home!” and actually be talking to someone haha

[@norakenny4809]

omg stop thats so cute!!!

[@victoriapaigew]

this!! 😭🥲

[@tiffyplants866]

This is so wholesome!!! 🪴💚

[@bendemare5270]

Lovely

[@nelsongesnalie8716]

Awww so cute

[@th3azscorpio]

Giving plants names helps a lot with remembering their needs indeed. Also, playing music for your plants helps them to grow, as well. They love classical music, and even jazz as well. Also scientifically backed.

[@AlinaAlign]

Thank you for this reminder!

[@tazonitegaming91]

I love this

[@83kiarra]

Will be playing some Jazz today

[@WhiteRose20000]

Will playing louder more aggressive music like trap, or heavy metal or rock kill them? Lol

[@vantastroganoff4370]

Much easier But it must have close meaning.. pinky tuscadero is my delphinium

[@inceleni]

oooh goddess, ive been watching your astrology videos for the last 3 years. Ive just moved in and want to ‘adopt’ new plant babies, searched for plant mom, opened the first video and THATS YOU. Youre everywhere my queen 😩🤝🪬🧿🫀🌀🌅⭐️🦋🌬️🫂

[@abigailslade8064]

i did the same thing!! i already love her :)

[@Fauren3.0]

Yes! Same here. She seemed so knowledgeable in the first few seconds.

[@JustJenJen]

i love it. I just started buying lots of plants and made sure I started with low maintenance ones first. I have a pathos, aloe vera, a few succulents, and a pink quil. I want to get a snake plant or peace lily next.

[@iamgoregeous3952]

Be careful with a peace lily as they are toxic to humans. I think I got some on food and it made my throat burn so bad.

[@ihatehoneymustard]

How’s your plants now?

[@user_urdad]

omggg I hope you got a snake plant!! absolutely love

[@elizabethzaytseva7996]

Please make more plant videos! Natural fertilizers, DIY plant food!

[@AlinaAlign]

You got it! Natural fertilizers is a great idea!

Yes!! Thank you both!!!

Yay!! It will be fun and rewarding. 🤍 Be patient with yourself!

[@MarineThePlantMachine]

I saved a dying Pothos a few months ago, and was THRIVING with just a little TLC 🤗 Totally agree that plants are very alike humans and to be a good plant parent we just need to be attentive and patient 🌱🥰 Happily subscribing to your channel, can't wait to see your next videos!

[@bendemare5270]

How is it going?

[@AlinaAlign]

Comment below! Which plant behind me was fake? Hehehe♡

[@th3azscorpio]

That fiddle leaf tree😁

[@UltrAMArIn3prOph3cY]

My first thought watching the intro is why is she sitting in front of a plastic fiddle leaf fig, lol. It is rare to see one without brown spots. Part of the joy of plants is their imperfections it reminds you that you can't be perfect and neither can your plants. They will do and grow how they want and not necessarily how we want them to.

[@DearTkeyah]

The fiddle and monstera

[@LeahBandB]

I bought my first plants (with my mom's much appreciated guidance!) at the beginning of the summer. When I tell you I fell in love! My little family of three plants has since become a family of 9, 10 if you count the little calla lily I lost to root rot along the way. RIP little one!

[@avgweezerfan3779]

you little lisp brings me so much joy its adorable

[@AlinaAlign]

🥰 it’s usually an insecurity of mine so thank you.

"Snake plants are really good because they are so hard to kill"*smiles* LMAO

My guess is the fiddle leaf behind you is fake :)

[@AlinaAlign]

Correct! lol😄

[@shauniejames5763]

Lol so do I follow her advice or nah🤔😂

Thank you for all of the advice! I'm so excited to start my plant mama journey 💚

[@miyaanderson5836]

Yes to the plant food! And as everyone has said the 🌿 tree behind you

[@iCoily]

I check on my plants daily and talk to them. It has been therapeutic on both ends honestly. My boyfriend teases me all the time lol. Pretty much all of them have names too!

[@thisveganlife6340]

I love your personality and the brightness you brought to this video. You’re enjoyable to watch and I hope you continue to do more plant videos. I’m starting to really get into house plants recently and I’d love to watch more plant care videos and see your collection. :)

[@AlinaAlign]

Thank you so much!!

Have you ever tried egg shells in the water? My greatgm, gm, and mom did it. I do it, never looked it up. I do it because they did it. I guess I should look it up. 👀😜

Did you ever find out? Pretty sure that's to kill snails & slugs. My mom said that's why she did it. I was so sad. I love those slimy little guys.

I might have to take my sisters plant under my wing! It’s the same one as my Frado (yes I named him) and it looks so sad, my plant isn’t the best but that’s because he’s my first one but I’m getting better! But my sisters plants leads are all brown and small while mines leaf is green and has lots of new growth! I will look into finding out what his plant type is and I will do more research!

Hi! I'm new to your channel, but loved this video. If you have any more advice about plants (specifics is great!) I'd love to hear it! I have an aloe plant but it's dying and I have no idea why, so I'm hoping to learn more about plant nutrients and soil health and all that to take better care of plants in the future.

[@justcallmemochi]

it's funny that you mention the importance of naming plants because i just got a Echeveria elegans (rose succulent) today and i named him Gerald

I have a huge aloe Vera plant in my front yard, it’s always dying and coming back to life because my house is smack dead in front of the Cali sun and it gets sooo hot. If I take some of the plant from my front yard and put it into some soil and a plant pot will it grow? Lol aloe Vera is my favorite plant

[@13unnyjpg]

I had a bonsais tree....a little baby one....her name was Bonnie.....yes Bonnie the bonsais and she died about 2 months after I got her 🥲 .moving into a new loft with huge windows and I really want to have flourishing plant life in my home.....wish me luck y’all

Ooh, I'm sorry for your loss, you live and you learn. Good luck

The Fiddle Leaf Fig is the fake one. I love those trees. I have 2! Maybe the Monstera is fake too. Not sure.

I’m growing Monstera Delicioa from seedlings. Any tips? I also have Dracaenas, Peace Lillies, and Anthuriums. My succulents and Aloa Vera are taking over my front yard pot. I’ve propagated them, and they’re doing great. Just built a new Greenhouse for my growing garden. They’re thriving in it.

Hahahaha! Hi Alina. I immediately could tell it was the fig leaf that was fake. I recently bought one just like yours but returned it because it was a dead give away. Have you done an update on the organic fertilizer mixture yet?

Girl I’m happy you said identify the fake plant. Cause lol 😂

[@Galene2012]

Love this!

[@Arlylife]

Is it necessary to buy fertilizer? What the reason I’m still confused? And how many times do I need to fertilize my plant?And also how do I keep bugs away? If those plants that she talked about has any When I get one? Also propagating( I heard that you need to do this to get your plant to grow more? Or the stem of your plants you notice it is brown so u need to cut it)

[@AlinaAlign]

Hi! You most definitely don't need fertilizer! Some plants that are older can sometimes respond well to added nutrients that would be usually found if they were planted in the earth. But I've had plenty of plants that have done just fine without it!

[@priscillajimenez27]

I just bought 5 small plants. Unfortunately most of them weren't labeled. One I guess was like a snake plant and some just said succulent (they weren't specific). So I'm not sure how much water they'd need since I can't fully identify them. Also I love in an apt complex in Florida so all of our windows actually face north (no direct sunlight plus a bunch of trees over the complex). What are your thoughts?

[@angelhellokitti]

There’s an app that can identify ur plants by taking a pic I tried it and it worked the first try I think it’s called picturethis

[@priscillajimenez27]

@@angelhellokitti what's it called?

[@Iixmiyx]

where could you get plant from

[@AlinaAlign]

Hey! If you look up local plant nurseries in your area, you will find unlimited plants! And they’re usually much more affordable compared to Home Depot but they also have plants! In my area, many of the local Hispanic grocery stores also sell really affordable and beautiful plants. Hope this helps!

[@Trisharenel]

[@Spikeybud]

can u do a plant food video? :)

Nice idea! Will definitely add this to my list.
