Pete your new backdrop looks awesome. Love your content, stay down to earth, you are a joy to watch!

[@petevsplants7516]

You're too kind, Kerry! Thanks so much :D

[@theantsplants]

The plant room is looking good Pete. "Happy wife happy life," they say.

[@petevsplants7516]

lol very true :D thanks mate!

Geese Louise I loved this video!💕💕💕

🐸🧦 more plant tours?! 🤯🤯

[@petevsplants7516]

haha guess it's what the people want

[@isleeptillnoon5256]

My favourite set and forgot method is directly into my soil mix, then zip lock bag it, leaving an inch open for air flow. I recycle all my old zip lock bags and plastic packaging for use in this propagation method. It skips all that pffaffing around with transitioning and keeping the moisture levels during propagation and initial transition.

[@petevsplants7516]

Awesome tips! I try to reuse as much as possible too.

[@MyLocsMyPlants]

new set up looks great !

[@petevsplants7516]

Thanks a lot, mate!

[@TheGuardianGamerOF]

Pete I love it how your always like let's keep it G rated then your like fuck and damnit it brings me so much joy. lol.

[@petevsplants7516]

hahaha yeah... there's swearing and then there's my dark sense of humour. I'm not sure which would be worse on here.

[@HollyAZ]

Nice studio!

[@petevsplants7516]

hehe thanks mate :D Will try to do a tour soon.

[@surgeinc1]

Like your dirt scoop. Didn’t see the cat.

[@petevsplants7516]

Lol yeah she's not allowed in the plant room after she tried using one of the plants as a scratching post.

[@shadesofidaho]

Now you know you MUST do a slow pan around your new studio soon!!!! I think all of us arealwayslooking for a good way to get the most mileage put of our plant space.

[@petevsplants7516]

Hehe will try to do a tour soon :D

[@shadesofidaho]

@@petevsplants7516 When you get to doing your newspace plan would you pleaseadd the size of the room. I am thinking of rearranging my sun porch.It is tiny at 12 by 6 foot. It does have eastsouth and west windows. BUT east window is under a high roofedporchsouth side ias a tall hill and trees blocking some of the afternoon sun and sun sts way earlier down in my little cove. Thanks. Looking forward to your scan. Really for me just a slow pan around the room in even a short would be great.

[@clairethomas4118]

My N'joy is giving me no joy. Love your new space.

[@petevsplants7516]

lol because you don't like it or because it's not doing well? Thanks, mate!

[@clairethomas4118]

It's given me three new leaves. That'd be great if i hadn't had it 10 months.

[@amelise]

Loving the new setup looks very schmick. Can't wait to see how these plants go in their new homes. 😁🐸🧦 Cheeky buggers though sending growth points south 🤣 I swear sometimes plants do the weirdest $hit.

[@petevsplants7516]

I know, cheeky rats indeed haha

[@KathyGallagher01]

Snap! Thought the same thing about the caning appendage 😂

[@petevsplants7516]

hehehe :D

[@lamnium]

Moving things away from your wife's sight seems to be a good call.. I wish I have my own space to keep my plants from all my family(my husband and a toddler🤣)

[@petevsplants7516]

Hehe pretty much... Move your husband and toddler into a tent outside. Problem solved :D Follow me for more relationship advice haha

[@richardr5878]

Funny, I was typing to ask if you used the prop water for their first soaking. Lol. I do and then mild fertilizer next time. Curious to see that room set up. Nice to have dedicated space. What’s your flooring?

[@petevsplants7516]

Hey mate, I have just carpet in this room, however, I went to Bunnings and grabbed some chip board/cabinet wood sheets and have put those down below each shelf to catch any soil, water, etc.

[@alicelarez4311]

They will grow up closer being together.

[@petevsplants7516]

Awesome!

[@mariannecarter8413]

Love your new set up. Your growing shelves make a great backdrop. Which grow lights do you use & recommend? Do you have an affiliate link?

[@petevsplants7516]

Hey, mate. They're from eBay. The link is - www.ebay.com.au/itm/325143108745 Hope that helps!

@@petevsplants7516 Shit, they’re good value 😀

[@alicelarez4311]

You can get soil on the leaves,then use one of your new brushes to wipe them off.

[@petevsplants7516]

Good point!

[@BIRDETR5]

Wondering if someone can share a link for the type of shovel tool you used here. Great video, thank you. ❤

[@petevsplants7516]

Hey mate, if you're in Aus, they're at bunnings. I think just do a search for soil shovel and they should come up.

[@BIRDETR5]

@@petevsplants7516 thank you, and no sir. I’m way over in state of Illinois in the USA. I’m sure I will find one, I’ve never noticed one before. Hope you have a good day!

Hehe she'll be back soon...

[@caitlin228]

I wish clear pots were as common in the US. We need Bunnings here

[@petevsplants7516]

Wow, so no luck at places like your Walmart and big box stores?

[@caitlin228]

@@petevsplants7516 no. I had the hardest time finding any kind of plastic pots when I first got into plants. Even nurseries don't really carry them. Orchid pots are the most common clear ones

[@petevsplants7516]

How annoying. Might have to look online then.

[@rvmmedina]

No Peaches?! Riot. I haven't tried it because I've never had that many cuttings at once, but do you think using plant tape or cord to tie them relatively close when placing them into water would make moving them into soil easier?

[@petevsplants7516]

Haha. Yeah, it might, though they kind of bunch together when their roots grow out anyway.

[@susiesmith2543]

Lol. Let those babies have their own room. You can cram your stuff in one room. Lol

[@craySean]

lol that was my first thought also loooollll

[@MyLocsMyPlants]

ok so I had a monstera albo wetstick and it now has 3 leaves ! I grew it out in moss lol. so about 2 weeks ago I changed it over to a chunky mix and now I'm staring at it daily 😂 I think I might be underwatering it idk the leaves look a lil limp what do you think ? sorry I know it's difficult without seeing a pic

[@petevsplants7516]

Check the soil before watering again. it could also be root rot if it's been overwatered.

[@MyLocsMyPlants]

@Pete vs Plants ugh yea you're right im happy i looked at it !! I think i left to much of the moss on when I transitioned it to the chunky mix smh so I put it in a fresh batch and I won't water for a while 😂 I'm always overwatering

[@lindsey4178]

@@MyLocsMyPlantswe are all guilty of over watering at some point. I think that's why SOMETIMES people who just have a couple plants but don't LOVE them, have such good looking plants. We can tend to helicopter parent when we really love them. Lol. Hope your plant is still doing well.

[@MyLocsMyPlants]

@lindsey4178 Hey! yes actually it's doing amazing I can't believe this comment was 5m ago but it's currently standing strong. I ended up rerooting it in a snack bin for a while and now it's in regular room humidity and popping pit good size leaves each has been bigger than the last! it's been great watching it grow ive learned alot 💚

[@lindsey4178]

@@MyLocsMyPlants that's exciting! I've never had a full sized monstera before but I do have an adansonii and it's incredible. It qlso reminds me of my pothos. For YEARS I thought my pothos was happy in my kitchen window (green, no lost leaves, etc) until I decided to prune and move it to a high light area.....I had NO idea how big the leaves could get until now, and funniest of all, the sun exposure showed me that I don't just have a green pothos....its a golden pothos with beautiful yellow through all of it. Lol. Im so glad your monstera is doing well and love to see leaves bigger than the last. Lol. I'd LOVE a really large leaf plant. Also, I can't help but ask....where the hell does ur screen name come from?!? Lol

[@karenmyers9146]

I would have used their water for the rooting hormone that the plants release. Would keep the roots happier and less stressed imho

[@petevsplants7516]

Yeah, may've been okay. Though, I was worried about introducing all the algae in.

[@Rhondas_Flippin_Life]

@petevsplants7516 exactly what I thought too. I've never done that and wouldn't want to risk it... Could possibly be a disaster

[@od.vandeveer]

Nice studio but you are missing a place for peaches to be in the shot

[@petevsplants7516]

Hehe very true. Unfortunately, she can't be trusted in the plant room after trying to use a moss pole as a scratching post :S

[@od.vandeveer]

@@petevsplants7516 that's exactly what one of mine did.
