[@orchids4256]

First thing I want to say is a big congratulations to you, Kaylee, for the shop growing to the point of being a major distributor. Maybe it's not a big deal, but it seems like it's a big accomplishment for the shop, so yay! And this video was really interesting. Flipping plants seems like it's a pretty big gamble so hearing your insight regarding the practice is pretty cool. Seems like it would be a safer bet to chose a product that is more stable ie less able to die, but then maybe that's the draw of it? Idk, the video was just thought provoking. :)

[@jhggcfdr3467]

IK i just started watching their videos and now they are already doing this. SO happpyyyyy

[@sini4971]

I had never heard of flipping before, but now when you explained it, I really notice how much flipping is happening out there

[@prettyingreen]

The quick cash grab on flipping plants has become rampant in the US too...But everyone doing that should know it won't last. People will catch onto shady plant sellers! Thank you for telling it like it is!

[@Alyssofhearts13]

Loved this repot with me! Please do a self watering pot review/ lecca vs pon. Would you also consider explaining using hydrogen peroxide please? I just think of how it bleaches people's hair and get really scared it will burn off my plant's roots!

[@Kknah91]

My understanding is that when using 3% hydrogen peroxide, you just dilute it with water and it’s safe. 10% of your liquid would be hydrogen peroxide, and 90% water.

[@kirafareso4967]

Here in Australia with our strict biosecurity, local nurseries grow out batches of special "rare" release plants. They then release them to our local hardware warehouse in identifiable pots and really comparable price for a first release. Flippers will literally take the photo of the plant in store, with store branding in the background Less than an hour after the store unboxed the plants. They buy all they can and jack the price x3 or x4. They don't even deny it half the time.

[@platitudestern5149]

See... that.. really disgusts me.. and breaks my heart. Ugh, why can't everyone be excited ... for someone to get... a plant they love.. and want to take care of... and enjoy... without people taking advantage of that... 🤦🏼‍♀️ I just sold a cutting of my monstera albo(easily a cutting i could get for 300+$), to someone in a town close to mine... for literally 100$... and I'm happy about it.. they're happy about it.. I think I was equally excited as she was... because .... I was able to give someone access to their dream plant.. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤩 and she was just so grateful and excited. I hate people.. that just... want to take advantage of people.. it just sucks. 😔 wish this wasn't even a thing..

I would love to know the "scoop" on the Plowmanii and Mamie. I am so confused and intrigued by those plants 😊

[@blip-2024]

I love anything flimed in front of the living wall. It's the best I have ever seen.

[@bronsonramoutar2414]

Mamei and Plowmanii both climb when they are young. They change growth pattern to creeping when they develop cataphyls. Quite a few things change actually including internode length, root thickness, leaf shape. I've heard of Mameis that just straight up climb but I haven't seen a Mamei that climbs while also growing from a cataphyl.

[@M_SC]

Whoa interesting!

[@corvinox]

Yes to all the videos on the differences between the "same" plants. Love you Kaylee, you are like the big sister i never had. Looking out for us in the big plant world! ❤

[@EMuro-wu7uy]

This is exactly why I love your content, I learn alot from these videos. I did want to import a few plants but quickly changed my mind. I try to get my plants from legitimate shops. Not saying mean things, I have a tight budget, I also try green version of plants that are higher end first. At least if I kill green version instead of variegated one I save tons of money. So thank you for your genuine content. Especially the dish the dirt.

[@User_1414b]

Mamaei vs plowmanii - yes! I am a huge fan of educational content on deciphering between similar plants. I think it was your channel (?) That did a video on the differences between WPP, white wizard, and white knight - and I am 1000% here for that kind of content :) Always excited to watch your videos. Extra excited when I see it's over an hour long! 😊 happy Friday!

[@stevennguyen4993]

I love just listening to your re-pots while doing schoolwork. I don't see myself part of the trendy plant movement (since most of my part-time income goes to bills), but I don't feel alienated in the "discussion." I'm not being bombarded with "buy this" or "you need to hate on this person for x, y, and z;" and there's a pragmatic amount of frustrated cussing and sharing of stressful sauce.

[@hana1130]

Congratulations, Kaylee!! Your hard work and dedication to your dreams are paying off! It’s beautiful to see you grow so much and thank you for sharing your humor and knowledge with us :) have a wonderful holiday weekend ☀️

[@How2shine]

I'm a beginner plant enthusiast and I'm interested in big-leaved philodentrons. I don't like variegations, there can be little white or silver in the leaves. Different shades of green are ok. It is important for me to know whether a plant is creeping or climbing and of course learn to recognize and distinguish plants from each other. So yes, I am interested in hearing more about these plants.

[@HugoCassimiro]

About the Hoya propagation, I have maybe 30 species of Hoya and find that the more sturdy/woody ones likes to be propagated in LECA, even nodes without leaves. For the more herbaceous ones, like the polyneura, Bella, multiflora, they rot so easily that I just had success in water for the first roots to appear and then switched to soil. But the more woody ones, definitely LECA is a nice way of doing, even just coconut chips lightly moistened works as well

[@safri85duo]

The one on the left, lighter green is Mamei. The veining on the leaves are closer. So you can tell the difference between Mamei & Plowmanii as Plowmani's veins are further apart making the leaves look more pillowy. Also, Mamei are crawlers not climbers.

[@StrangeDisposition]

So Sodoroi are the climbers?

[@safri85duo]

@@StrangeDisposition There are a lot of climbers but yes, Sodiroi is one of them.

[@horace6851]

Majestic is the climber, right? It also looks like those. I'm so confused right now btw.

[@safri85duo]

@@horace6851 Majestic is a hybrid of Sodiroi & Verrucosum, and is a climber

[@horace6851]

But Mamei doesn't have the frill on the petiole, Plowmanii does and the light green on the left has the frill. Unless we're thinking about a different frame.

Just catching up on the vids after touching down in Manchester from my holiday. I am so shocked you mentioned people flip so close to you sending out. I am one of the clients from you and the seller in Ecuador. I do not let a plant go out until healthy roots and shoots turn up. I can't imagine buying a plant with import roots and to me it's very obvious those sellers not rehabbing long enough. Luckily I have money to waste and enjoy the process of rehabbing but I agree with you 100% you shouldn't be flipping just for money reasons. Many are with me over 8 months (I still have plants from last april and July from you) and I wish people would realise how much effort goes into rehabbing. I think the video will be helpful for those that are maybe new to plant buying and aren't aware what import roots/damage look like. You might have seen on FB that people are now questioning any suspicious sales so it's very topical right now!

It is an easy way to make money- flipping plants, but really I can't do it and feel good in my heart. I posted a couple months ago that the local grocery store had Ficus shiveriana for $7! A lady I know in town that also sells plants said on a personal message that she intended on going and buying ALL of them so she could resell for $25!! I got so mad, I ran to the store and bought all but one so she couldn't. I wound up selling them for $12 a month later- id intended on selling them for the price that I paid w tax $7.50 - but by the time anyone bought any- I'd had them for a month, they'd grown, I'd fertilized, etc - so I charged a bit more.. but not the $25 she was going to sell at!!! I also notified our local group what she was up to- I'm not sure if she got in any trouble. The only other reason i buy at a grocery store and resell is if i find a plant half dead there and get it back to happy land. Otherwise- I want local people to be able to buy plants for the cheap prices they can find them at the big box stores - even if its plants I have in my greenhouse that cost more. I'll even be nice and point it out - it usually wins me a sale later on something the big box stores DON'T have! Its just being a good person ❤
