EASY HOUSE PLANTS FOR BEGINNERS

A friend of mine inspired me to make this video so I can help him out and others like you out there who want to bring house plants into their lives but you're just not sure which plants to start with.

Here are my top 6 houseplants recommendations for beginners. These are not only easy, simple to care for, but they are also pretty cool looking to have in your home.

He’s 100% correct. Once you go green, there is no going back. I recently quit smoking, and took up plants instead. I have a new, healthier addiction. Thank God.

"Ex plant killers who want to turn their life around"😂 😆 ahah I think we pretty much all start there🙈

I am a plant nut! I root EVERYTHING! I've picked little cuttings that needed trimming on my dog walks, and picked up broken petunia stems at the garden center and put in water. Fun and often amazing.
Loved your tips and I have a few more:
1. Be careful not to put Aloe in direct sun. It gets sunburned easily (move as soon as the stems change color; may come back). And I killed a huge, gorgeous jade thinking it would be nice for her to enjoy the summer outside. Bad idea!
2.Spider. You can cut off a baby (or if a baby falls off), put its base in water (not the leaves). In a few weeks you'll have roots and a new plant. I've given away many plants that way.
3. I have rooted assorted Pothos in water. After ample roots emerged I planted all the varieties together. So far, everyone is very happy.
Keep the vids coming!

[theog]

Wow 7:01 That was the prettiest Spider plant I've ever seen! So many babies hanging around!

Can u also do a video of nutrient deficiency diagnosis. Like what signs to look for. What does a plant lacking potassium, or nitrogen, or whatevs look like. So we can care for our plants better.

Your plants all look so happy. Your care for them must be fantastic 👍

[Jessica-lpuf]

Christian, I highly enjoy watching your videos!! I agree, that the Pothos is definitely a good plant for beginners. Especially, the "Golden Pothos." They grow pretty fast, and i water mine about 1 a week or every two weeks. I have both of my pothos near a window so that it can get the green and yellow variegated leaves! Keep the video's coming! happy planting!

I have spider plants curly and other different plants too. 🪴 I love to have plants indoor plants awesome. Makes me fresh beautiful home again. 😊

[LaughingLaptops]

Oh wow I need 2 more plants that you've recommended that I dont have yet. Lucky me finding an excuse to buy more plants. Also I have my snake plants in a seriously bright window. I water weekly. Since Nov of last year I started with 1 and now have 6 from all the babies. Light and water is the trick to making them grow fast and give pups. My goal is to fill my window sill 54 inches, with full tall snake plants one day. From my home grown babies, lol.

Omg that’s the best looking spider plant I have ever seen 😱♥️ an absolute stand out piece of a plant 👏🏼

[wealthwithtess]

Love that you mention how good plants are for our health! love this.

[fearisallie]

I'd suggest the money tree. I have one that was given to me by a roommate that couldn't look after it (I was the only person in the house watering it lol), and it was my first ever plant. It has survived several moves with me, and has been in many different lighting/living conditions with no issues! He's a big boy now

[synesthesia]

Omg i find low water plants to be sooo much harder! I can't remember to water every other week, i like to just water when they are dry! Lol I am an over waterer in recovery :( thank goodness for my peace lily, polka dot, and pathos...

[rosariovalladares]

I grew a jade plant into a bonsai and lemme tell you it's pretty great once it's really grown. Looks so amazing. FYI : took about 10 years

[burplecow]

Could you make a video of the amount that you water your plants? Do you measure the water, do you stick them under the faucet, do you water them till the water runs out the bottom etc

[carolinehenderson]

Here because Jenna marbles made me want to start buying house plants 😂❤ thanks for the awesome vids

[ravenify]

I have all these except Jade and ZZ.. will be getting them next!!
I Also have lucky bamboo, fittonia, chin cactus, bryophyllum, haworthia, maiden hair fern, and m experimenting with a Gloxenia indoors. So far so good.
