"Why are old guys watching my videos?"
Your vids popped up when I first started collecting house plants and your experience was a couple years more than mine and I found your videos easy to follow as opposed to following an Expert.
Also, you remind me of one of my favorite people.
Before the pandemic, I spent lots of time with my niece. After the pandemic, and being 19, her life is full and our visits are few. I am one of those people who will play your videos in the background of my life simply for the pure joy of hearing your ramblings and stories. Thanks for that.

"Should I write a book?"
I feel that if you approached a book the way you edit a Q&A, it would be a big hit. The way you wander off subject and speak Your Truth, is entertaining and joyful. Thanks again.

Wow, thank you so much for the mention Fern! That honestly is the ultimate compliment and means so much because I love your channel, thank you!!!!💚💚💚

[LeafyNirvana]

Letsss goooo on the sponsorship, Fern! So happy for you 🥹🙌🏼🫶🏼

I put stress coat (a quarter tsp per gallon) in my tap water and it has helped A LOT! Stress coat dechlorinates and is supposed to remove dissolved metals and other impurities. Stress coat is what folks who keep fish add to the water that the fish live in.

The SPONSORSHIP? Yes!!! 🎉 so excited for you. Always grateful for another Fern video as well 😊

[Madalyn.Johnson]

Maybe you could chop and prop the double growth on your domesticum so you could have an aesthetic one and investigate what happens with the double growth??
Also, completely obsessed with your KOS- every time I see that in your cabinet I love it! Gotta get myself one someday!

GIRL. That Monstera AUREA is just…SO LUSH! She is a freaking star!! 🌟 🌟 🌟

WOWOW!!! Thanks for sharing updates!

[lindadaa]

I have had the same issue with my Florida Ghost, and what helped for me was moving her further away from the light. That made the leaves start turning minty/green again, I was so relieved!

[shadesofgreene]

I’ve always been told to water calathea/maranta with distilled because they’re so sensitive to the salts/chlorine in tap water! It’s the only thing that keeps the tips of mine from turning brown!

The way my jaw DROPPED when you announced the sponsor 😲🥹😩 sooo incredibly happy for you Fern, congratulations 💜

[nattiemae]

Omg!!! The sponsorship we've all been waiting for!!! Yaaassss!! You turned me onto their nail polish and I'll hooked! I love it!

[ThatGirlShelbyy]

Omg that red leaf in the intro!!!! I can't wait to watch!! 😍❤️‍🔥

[ArthurGrey.]

I don't even wear nail polish but I've been following Mooncat for a few years and am ALWAYS in awe of their colours. Congratulations, Fern!

At 16:07 I think I see a mealie in the new leaf. I HOPE I am wrong and it's just the shine of the leaf. You have such a stunning collection I love these videos! I hope your plants keep growing really healthy and happy for you!

[Horsewoman-ptku]

You can buy more curtain rod holders and make sure you have them screwed into wood and your plants shouldn’t pull the rod down. Also more holders is better so the rod doesn’t bend

Starting my day with coffee and Fern ☕💚
What a delight! 🥹

[Bat_Fiend.]

I think I commented about not watering calathea with tap water under that previous video. It's honestly what has worked for me too so i second that notion. Although I use rainwater and that works aswell.
It's the chemicals that are used to clean the tap water that are too harsh for the cells in the thin leaves.

[rebeccahenderson]

Nice opening, great way to start the day. On the Florida Ghost, I'm wondering if moving her to a slightly darker spot would have her go more green? Your plants all look so healthy :)

[zoeyeliz]

Yes, the water thing is so tricky! I have a handful of ctenanthe & carnivorous plants, and because I have well water (no chloramine/fluoride) I was also watering them with my tap water, however well water can still have a lot of minerals and dissolved solids, my TDS is around 70-120ppm depending on temperature of the water. I recently switched to watering them with water from a ZeroWater pitcher which removes pretty much everything. On the new growth I think I'm already seeing less brown/crispy tips and edges.

The way you care for your plants is like art. It makes me take care of mine better then ever. Thank you for taking us along for the journey💚
