shopping for pottery + repotting a bunch of plants! | repot with me

[@mathildepoulain7287]

Aw thank you for sharing my jewelry ! I am so glad you like them ! (Thank you for noticing the backing paper haha, I hand painted it for hours)

[@shiny-dust]

i love your jewelry too! so beautiful!!

[@mariadanielabolano3661]

You can also wet the surface a lil bit before drilling to help cool it down and prevent any breakage! I’ve done it this way w/o the tape and also works! Might help w how slippery the drill was getting ✨✨❤️‍🔥 Also placing the pot on top of a damp towel to keep it from moving around! 🫶🏽🧚🏼

[@adeanaargle5739]

I was just going to say the same thing. I feel like it helps a lot.

[@graceconnolly1570]

I’ve done the tape trick and that’s worked well but I’ve never heard of the damp towel trick, I’ll have to try that! Thanks for the tip!! :)

[@sandylizbeth2900]

The end of video cleaning was also really satisfying to watch! Something about repotting and making a mess with soil then cleaning it all up to have your plants in their new pots is so calming.

[@chantecampbell2207]

Okay so it wasn’t just me.😂

[@DesireeStamat]

The nice music helped.

[@elizabethmarta1492]

Please use water when drilling! The drill bit gets very hot from the friction and will wear down faster without water, causing you to need to purchase new bits a lot more more often.

[@mariahhull2619]

It’s not enduring a voice over! I love voice overs! I get distracted and forget to watch when it’s just music🤪

[@deepikaramchandani1551]

Carefully open to show respect to the giver who took time to pack.

[@natjoy22]

Isn't it satisfying watching water flow out of a pot with a drainage hole YOU drilled? Love the wicker mushroom!

[@tracys_plants]

I always add water on top of the pot where I’m drilling to keep dust in the water and not in my lungs 😊. You got a ton done!!

[@PlantHouseGarden]

Good tip 👍🍃

[@after_twelve_]

I loved that you included a lengthy clip of the watering + Clean up ending, that was so relaxing!!

[@sproutswithjoy]

I’m loving the chill chaos of this video 😂. A+ editing!

[@natjoy22]

I feel the same way!

[@rowenalatorre4872]

you should drop a little bit of water or get a wet sponge to soften the ceramic while drilling a hole and put a thick folded cloth on the bottom so that the pot wont move...

[@ABedofThistle]

I use a masonry bit instead of a diamond bit to drill holes in ceramic/terracotta. It’s spade shaped so the slipping is minimal and it makes quick work. Spraying water on the surface also helps keeps the dust down and the drill bit cool, so it’ll last much longer 😊

[@anitatyvm]

I repot plants into too large pots all the time, I just make sure I don't fill up the pot entirely with potting mix. Say a 6" is making the jump to 10", I would plant it taking up 2/3 of the 10". I can't get over those lobes on Thaumatophyllum Spruceanum!

[@patriciadosch4386]

I love watching repotting videos cause I love seeing the roots. It's fascinating!

[@apextroll]

You could make a wooden jig for the drilling of the hole. . Take a piece of plank board 5 inches wide and drill a hole with a spade bit or even the diamond bit and use it as a guide while drilling and you can drill straight down without it walking away. Also it will soften the cutting through part.

[@myinsulingardenbyniniday4398]

Beautiful plants!! 😍Thanks for taking us to this Nursery 🥰

[@elizabethdavis5822]

My husband drills holes in my pots for me all the time, I bought him the drill set and he does the same park, I now buy whatever pot I want because it takes him a few minutes to add the hole. Also he uses his work bench and I think he goes in from the inside of the pot first(yes it does nic the bench) and then he goes back in from the bottom to make sure it’s a clean hole.

[@graceaxisa4213]

I just loved that section at the end. It sums up yet another satisfying aspect of gardening. Thank you!

[@journeythroughthree]

Love your vids and the choice of music…so soothing at 11:30pm. Your hard work is appreciated!

[@savanahhummel8158]

Tape probably helped with the scratching of the bottom of the pot when it was “dancing away”. Loved that you described it as dancing away❤

[@sophia_ebg]

Loved the last sequence 🥰 so calming

[@ninaaungst7705]

I’ve been drilling drainage whole at least 2 years and it still scares me every time when the drill goes through, I’m also terrified I’ll break my pots 😂

[@Samantha-ed9st]

Hey Becca, luv the repot video. next time for making drainage holes in pots put some water on the pot n than start drilling into the pot. Its comes out clean and easier. Luv the new earrings!

[@izabellahancz647]

Omg I wish plant shops in New Zealand looked like this!!

[@chomama1628]

What a great selection of pots where you shopped!

[@djjimenez3077]

Something I learned about plants on planks, is to use reagular tape to attach the plant to the plank. Similar to air laying, it'll create more of a humid environment to encourage root growth. I've been using some packing tape from the dollar store and it has made such a difference. Might be a fun experiment 😅

[@cassandraCC]

Fantastic pots!! I really wish I had such a wide choice!

[@stephanieh7614]

I literally yelled thinking your hair was going to get tangled in the drill!!

[@denisevasquez9589]

thanks for including the last five minutes to your video! nice touch hehe

[@Erin-ir6cw]

Okay, but my level of anxiety before the video ended was unreal. I wanted that one spot to get vacuumed and it hadn’t happened yet. The next video suggestion boxes came up, and I began to panic. Then suddenly… Right before the screen fades to black… The spot was vacuumed. Now I need to buy this vacuum. Demand a sponsorship immediately!

[@BeccaDeLaPlants]

Bahahaha 😂😂 I need to reach out to them!!

[@elizabethkuhn9788]

Watching you drill the hole with your hair down next to it was honestly terrifying! Your hair is so beautiful I'd hate for something like that to happen. Otherwise, well done! I love how you break down projects and make them more approachable.

[@jenniferm6843]

My sister and I drove to vintage hill from North west Indiana so I can buy some of your soil. That’s a great nursery. We will go back to visit in the spring a get more.

[@Dinolover101MIP]

29:14 I’m not wearing my glasses I thought you were shooting a laser. very cool vacuum

[@tiffanyi5645]

Wow I’ve never been brave enough to try drilling my own drainage hole! I’m inspired lol…but maybe wear a mask next time to avoiding inhaling that dust 😷💚

[@jennifermcvay9017]

That slow mo 😂😂😂 I get my son to drill the holes for me 😎

[@s.galeassi3437]

I love helmis!! I was there just a couple days ago! I moved to Columbia a while back and I am loving it!!

[@ginadodge3164]

You should put some fairylights in the mushroom 🍄 so cute!

[@GardenWitchStudio]

All I could think when watching you start to drill the drainage holes was 'watch Nicole's video!' 😂

[@PlantHouseGarden]

😊🍃

[@madelinegrey2631]

This might sound silly but I’m always intimated to use a drill for anything. 😅did you teach yourself or watch YT or anything to help you learn?? Always impressed by your confidence to try things and figure things out

[@pixieofjoy]

Loved this! Really enjoyed that last segment with the pretty music! So relaxing.

[@saraht.barkaoui5735]

The jazz music over the chaos did get me 😂

[@BeccaDeLaPlants]

😂😂 hahahahah

[@claragoforth3645]

I also misjudged a pot (way too big) for my Norfolk pine but went with it any way and it doesn’t seem to mind 4 months later😂 also it hasn’t attempted to fall over thanks to the oversized pot so can’t complain about that!

[@hannahkuetemeyer2607]

I was about to watch this video and then remembered that I hadn’t finished your episode of “plants solving crimes” on potted together! Haha went back and finished it first😊🪴🌿 dang Roy.

[@BeccaDeLaPlants]

Ugh Roy is the worst!!!

[@janinebean4276]

I've drilled a bunch of drainage holes and watching you do it was hilarious 😂 it is a little scary! But so worth it cause I'm cheap lmao. There are some pots it doesn't work for though.

[@sylviagutierrez7676]

Great new pots,with new wholes 👍 💚☘️🌵🌱

[@Marlur]

I always pick up the wrong sized pots lol. 😅 Hope your ace of spades is happier now! ❤

[@annabergman1166]

I usually just put some leca in the bottom of pots that don't have drainage holes. I don't like the look of pots with saucers

[@pilitapadayao6066]

That drilling is such a help thank u for sharing that💚

[@asgharalirajput9510]

I enjoyed really very much thanks for sharing this nice Video stay blessed and connected

[@lanakravets7012]

That black alocasia is an azlanii I think, I have one too 😊

[@amybumstead6475]

The tape helps prevent chips and cracks

[@breezyg777]

I really enjoyed the music at the end.

[@kassieturner9027]

Where did you get your repotting thing!? I don’t like the tarp mats at all, but would absolutely LOVE one of these… If it’s custom I would either love to make one, or have it made. If dimensions and rubber inserts are available online I’d much appreciate the assistance with making this a reality!

[@flyingbytheseatofmyplants]

Try standing over the pot when you drill the holes

[@sojinnn]

Time to drive back to the store bc I don't have a pot big enough, is the story of my life lol

[@hendrickor32]

Hey becca whats the name of the instrumental music while you are watering and cleaning up?

[@Serdna12]

just from the inside of your car I think I can guess that you drive a 2012 red Toyota RAV4 lol thanks for another amazing video I love your content!!! Thank you !

[@pursuinghappiness1540]

Loving all the uploads!!

[@kikiinthegarden]

I always love your repot with me videos! I need to do one because I’ve been neglecting my plants 😂

[@suekuly4723]

When you were drilling the holes I worried you would crack your glass table. Thank goodness nothing happened.

[@PlantHouseGarden]

Interesting video and beautiful plants 🍃🤍

[@plantsbyisaac]

what if you potted all your ficus together in one pot? or at least both rubber trees?

[@jocelynsvlogofwtaiwan6643]

Watching

[@alisonchandler5333]

Hi Becca! Quick question, do you water all your plants with tap water? I have been fastidious about watering my plants with water that has been left out for more than 24 hours and never water my plants directly from the tap. Am I wasting my time and counter space?

[@BeccaDeLaPlants]

I have heard that leaving water out for 24 hours doesn’t actually do as much as we think and is kind of a waste, but of course it never hurts to research that thought more because I could be wrong. I have always watered my plants straight from the tap and rarely have issues. Sure there are some that would prefer distilled, but they’re fine haha

[@alisonchandler5333]

@@BeccaDeLaPlants thank you!

[@sandyheredia3027]

Wher did you get the folding table for repotting?

[@BeccaDeLaPlants]

Plantfolio!

[@katekitiya8632]

When drilling a hole, you can start with a smaller size bit as a guide to your bigger one.

[@onlyplantsbyhannah]

Was the video glitching at the beginning for anyone else I'm not sure if it's just my internet 🥺

[@judymckerrow6720]

Just my opinion but I think planting in bigger pots is okay as long as you don’t over water. 🍁🍂🍁💚🙃

[@Kelly-th4dn]

I'm kind of 50-50 whether I carefully open presents or just rip them open 😂

[@debracancelliere4081]

Are you sure you even needed to repot that rubber tree?

[@greggiepooh]

Rip the package open!!!

[@kendravoracek3636]

💚💚

[@MyCleanLeaves]

“It’s not all hate here.” 💀

[@shirleymoore3706]

Was I the only person freaking out about your hair being close to that drill bit?!? 😅

[@HaoNguyen-fg3zc]

😍💘🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@chantecampbell2207]

Was it just me or was the clean up at the end oddly calming? 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@yeahivekilledthat719]

Making me nervous with that drill. Glad you made it work...all things considered.

[@BeccaDeLaPlants]

✨all things considered✨ lmao
