As a new plant mom I had major apprehension about fertilizer..how to and how much. Thank you for simplifing this very important part of maintaining healthy happy plant babies 🪴

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Happy I could help Andrea!

[@lanavargas5750]

This was so helpful. I just bought my first fertilizer (2-3-1 neptune’s harvest) and will consider repotme 5-5-5 and worm castings :)

[@PeanutsPlants]

Awesome video! 👏🏻 so much great information! 🥰

[@debbiey9452]

Worm castings added to the top of the soil works well as part of my fertilizer routine.

I only use worm castings in all my houseplants. I’ve never had to worry about over fertilizing. Worm castings are a great organic fertilizer.

One thing I was taught to help remember what the numbers are for; N=up, P=down, K= all around. UP above the soil, down below and all over health.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Great tip!

[@ncgardener7468]

Excellent information! I am so glad I found your channel I have learned so much from you! You have a calm voice and I love the plant shopping videos. I have a question a bit off topic. Would you recommend cleaning leaves with just water, water and a bit of dish soap or added vinegar or peroxide or neem (the later few to prevent pest)?

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

I’ve heard good things about all for leaves except for peroxide. But just because I haven’t heard of that treatment, doesn’t mean it’s not a good one. :)

Hi Asheiy👋Your others have great tips n🌿☘💚🧡💛🖤😍🥰🤩🤟🤟thank you for shaving get video

[@brrfanta]

What do u mean about hydrated roots? Like how would I water then fertilise? Do you mean soak the soil and then immediately add water that containing fertiliser? Or do I water, then wait a couple days and then water if with water that contains fertliser? I'm scared that if I water and then a couple mins after I add more water+fertiliser in it that I'll drown my plant. Pls explain thank u

hi.hello.thanks for sharing and tips

[@miralukach6568]

So true. Flushing soil helps wash salts and minerals out. White rings on pots and soil are the accumulative salts. They will prevent plant absorb water and eventually burn leaves. Potassium, calcium, phosphorus are positive charge and they stick to a negative charge soil. That’s why we need to fertilizer with these less. Also nitrate is negative charge. Every time we water with nitrogen it doesn’t stick to soil. Plant takes in and the rest of it runs through.

this was so helpful!!!!! thanks so much 💞💞 I use liquidirt, have you ever used it

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Yes! Love it!

[@floatingpeaks4584]

I use water taken out of a fish tank after a water change to water the plants, no need for fertiliser.

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Love it!

Hi. I have a cutting of a 70 year old jade plant. How do I take care of it? It would be so sad to let this perish. Help…….Please!!

[@BalbysHome]

hi. Jade is succulent type of plant. I was successfull with the cuttings that was given to me. I waited for at least 3 days for the tips to callus before I planted it to succulent soil mixed with perlite ( like 1:1 ratio). Did not water until a week after. Happy planting

I bought a philodendron Gloriosum in October. It came in a 4” pot and is pretty large with 5 leaves. I planned on repotting it in the spring however it is pushing out a new leaf. Should I wait to repot it to do it now?

[@hvonsus5725]

Personally, I’d wait for the new leaf to emerge to repot, that way it won’t kill off the developing leaf bc of shock

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

If it’s still pushing out new growth, waiting until spring should be fine.

[@yodacari2783]

I use fish solution, smells awful... but works really great

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

Great suggestion!

I need help, I have a salix caprea aka a weeping willow in my house that I’ve had for some time, it’s quite huge..lastnight I think I murdered it. I don’t know WHAT or WHY I would do this, it happened so fast. I had a small spray bottle that I mixed a solution up (alcohol, dish soap, and mostly water) I unscrewed the nozzle and used that to water my weeping willow. Like I said I had a crazy moment and not sure why I did that. The second I did it I just knew it was the spray bottle with the solution. I panicked and took the tree in the shower and started rinsing and ringing out the soil like a sponge. I only used a drop of dish soap but oh my did it make a lot of soap! I’m so lost and scared I really did kill my beautiful tree 😢😢😢

[@LifewithAshleyAnita]

One time, I accidentally sprayed some of my plants and their soil with carpet cleaner. I got rid of the soil, washed off the plant, repotted and all of them were ok! I would recommend using new soil. If you’ve already done that, they should be ok. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.
