👏🏿 Pebble trays for humidity NEVER made sense to me, plus I live in Florida lol but I have been liking that they prevent my pots from sitting directly in any remaining water, especially for my plants on moss poles.

[@1218kimber]

I’m getting a 14” tall waterfall/fountain from Amazon and surround it with my plants. It’ll provide a nice sound as well as humidity.

[@kyletullyowns]

Pebble trays saved my ferns this winter, they were not happy before and now theyre lush and thriving. I dont think it humidifies like a humidifier but for ferns maybe its keeping the soil moist longer so its helping them survive

[@TheAdhdGardener]

That's awesome tho! If I had a fern by its lonesome I'd put a pebble tray on it. Some help is better than no help. Glad to know your plants are doing great🌻🌻

[@SerpentJungle18]

That was a fun video. I would’ve loved to see how the pebble tray works over time as the water actually evaporates. I think it may do better than 1%

[@madil5974]

Thanks for doing a scientific experiment! I always thought the same thing about the pebble tray method. This is the first full experimental video I was able to pay attention to from beginning to end. Thank you and keep up the enthusiasm and positive vibes!!!

[@TheAdhdGardener]

No problem! I was tired of reading people telling others plant ideas that I know full well it won't work/ was pointless/ or not needed. Had to prove it tho. 🤔 I should debunk more lol

[@deesmith284]

So happy I found your channel! I’ve been back and forth between buying another humidifier or going with pebble trays.

[@kjjune8603]

You are too funny! You did predict the pebble tray not working a few videos ago. Thank you for doing this work.

[@Lemons19902010]

This was a great experiment! I need to invest in a humidifier for my plants

[@umartinez883]

I came across this video because I have been on the verge of fist fighting my calathea, and its winter, I got an aroma diffuser instead of a humidifier set up right next to her that I put on any day (yeah, I'm too cheap for a humidifier). Send a priest with some holy water for her, she's a demon and the most difficult plant I have. I have 10 different tabs about genus, natural habitats, soil substrates, watering schedules. Thank you sooooo much for this. Also shoutout to my boyfriend whos youtube account happens to be on our TV, I wanna clog his feed with plants.

[@marshman119]

Love the actually useful advice instead of just repeated hearsay. Thanks for testing out these methods!

[@TheAdhdGardener]

I was tired of hearing people mention the stupid pebble tray thing🤦‍♀️ kept saying it worked so i said screw that ima sit here n watch the humidity rise or fall n catch it on vid

[@d4mcm]

[@TheAdhdGardener]

Thanks! They're precription contacts I've worn forever😆 used to be into sports n rocking glasses wasn't gonna happen

[@AnnaKalintseva]

Gosh! Yes! Pebble tray is the worst! Mosquito farm :)

[@TheAdhdGardener]

Exactly!😆🌻

[@mariapietroniro7479]

Hi Humidity from evaporation always. My home humidity is constant 59-70 +. My plants are becoming gigantic trees. Your incredible. Love Maria Montreal Canada 😻

[@TheAdhdGardener]

That's awesome! My humidity hovers at 49 now in fall but in dead of winter its like 35-40!

[@btx5740]

Let me go back down stairs and turn my Humidifier

[@Engycation]

Very Nice Video Go A Head

[@iwanttobelieve5970]

I'm going to be setting up a mini indoor greenhouse in my bedroom soon. I'm running out of space in my kitchen and the only real space with sun.

[@TheAdhdGardener]

The humidity struggle is real! We follow the sun in our homes lol

[@bRiMaTiOn]

I think those rocks are suppose to work using a surface area theory.

[@donnaallen2207]

I live in a humid area, but during the winter I guess it's not as good since I notice my skin screams more lotion 🥺 please. I do have 1 humidifier. Would that work since my plants are located all over my house or do I need a tent for this to work? Thank you so very much. I just stumbled over your channel and I'm oh so glad I did. I'm off to watch more of your videos because I need all the help I can get. 🤷 Everyone please have a wonderful day 🤗

[@TheAdhdGardener]

1 humidifier won't be enough if all the plants are scattered. I clump them together. I still have the same problem n winter is approaching n wondering how I'm going to tackle it this time

[@donnaallen2207]

@@TheAdhdGardener Thank you so much for your help. I'm going to put them together for this winter because a couple didn't fair so well last year. Thanks again for the recommendation 😃

[@GotterVibez]

adhd gardener =)) nice name

[@TheAdhdGardener]

Thanks cuz its def fitting😆

[@mayaspodcast]

Which humidifier do you have? And does it stay working? I’ve bought so many and they all stop working

[@angelathompsonmack3583]

Can you spray plants first then place your device there??

[@aravindrajpypore7829]

I thought i was the only plant guy with ADHD.

[@angelathompsonmack3583]

It appears you srayed water on your lil device🤔

[@tanyapotts6728]

No

Stupid pebble tray def didn't work! Now people can stop recommending that to us cuz ya know it doesn't do squat😆

[@kjjune8603]

@@TheAdhdGardener Right! I am a new plant mom. I have become obsessed with going to Lowe's to check clearance plants. I am going to try the pebble tray and the mister. I don't have a humidifier.

[@TheAdhdGardener]

@@kjjune8603 its ok! New plant moms gotta learn thru trial and error like all of us still.. heck If that's all ya have then use that with misting. That'll buy ya time until u can get a humidifier 🌻
