Also, your videos definitly deserve much more love than what they're getting. The content is very infromative and intertaining, yet almost no one is seeing it

I can hear my plants thanking you for posting this… from, a chronic over-waterer

I’ve seen a lot of garden KZbinrs make that claim, that air pockets in soil mean the roots will dry out. But scientifically speaking it’s not true unless we’re talking about air pockets at the outside edge of the pot where the soil pulls away from the pot. Air pockets in moist soil will be very humid, and should cause no problems whatsoever. In fact there are aeroponic systems (a specific type of hydroponics) which rely partly on air humidity to function. Not to mention, many of the tropical plants we keep in pots are naturally epiphytic, and grow in rainforest tree canopies where they receive irregular flow of water and nutrients with their roots in (humid) air most of the time. So the idea that air pockets in soil would be a problem doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. With that said, I did find this video helpful. One of my tropicals was drowning and I’ll be getting it back on the path to recovery this afternoon. Thank you for the walk-through.

I appreciate the thoughtful comment! It’s true, small air pockets are a hugely wonderful thing for root development and health! What im trying to avoid are very large gaps. The goal here is to let the size of the air gaps be dictated by the ingredients used in the soil so that a standard is maintained. By settling in the soil we avoid bottlenecks that can leave roots so far away from any source of moisture that they dry out and die off. I’ll admit, this isn’t a super common occurrence, but when troubleshooting it’s nice to know that all precautions were taken in the soil because it’s not something you can see unless you take the soil apart.

Wish I would have known this before I lost so many of mine last year! It took me until the last few weeks to realize it! once I move them all outside getting more sun they are perked up and thriving! Doubled in size in less than a week. that was the whole problem. It was causing me to over water them.

I would love for you to do a repotting on overwatered string of hearts. My tubers always turn to mush. I honestly don’t think I’m watering too much but maybe I am. Maybe my soil isn’t packed tight enough. I often squeeze the pot to aerate it so it dries quicker.

Great video, very concise but comprehensive I dont think you need to tap the pot though the water will compact the soil next time anyway

Is it a bad idea to seperate plants from pots that are crowded, if you got them from a big box store? I bought a pothos plant and realized it was 20+ cuttings in one pot. I know they can survive together for a while but I feel the over-crowding in some plant's cases can be a big problem if left alone.
