    I looked into these a couple of years ago and it seems like they were a lot more expensive. So the price has come down. I'd love to see your impressions after using it for 6 months on the plants that seem to get the brown edges. Looking directly at my calathea orbifolia!

    Not for consumption or medical use, but the water collected from a dehumidifier is ideal for watering plants that are sensitive to certain chemicals. My go-to is tap water that has been treated with aquarium water conditioner. The label has two levels of recommended dosages, one for chlorine, and one for chloramine. I contacted the brand that I use, and they confirmed that the dosage for chloramine will also neutralize flouride. This is very economical to use, and no more chemical burns on the leaves.

    • @PeggysPlants
      @PeggysPlants 7 днів тому

    I just got brave and got two cuttings and a node from my mother plant. The last time I tried to prop, I used a deliciosa and it rotted so next time I will try air layering. I have not been very successful with moss so this might be a better option. I mixed Tree fern fiber and Fluval stratum and in less than a week one of the Albo cuttings is showing off. I am. Nodes take forever, so we will see what happens with that. When you see an arial root, you should dance! That is a sure sign your plant is happy. Oh I also mixed moss and tree fern fiber into a D moss pole and now the root has grown into the pot in less than a month. Very happy! May I ask why you have it in a self watering pot?

    • @PeggysPlants
      @PeggysPlants 7 днів тому

      I have it in a self watering pot because it is in Leca. I like to use self watering pots with leca because it's easier for me to maintain. Mine is attached to a moss pole but is growing kinda crazy. I'm thinking about propagating it so I can get it to grow in a more orderly fashion, but they can take forever to grow. Best of luck with your propagations and happy growing!

    • @PeggysPlants
      @PeggysPlants 13 днів тому

      I assume that is the reason as well, but sure miss the ceramic pots. Maybe if I hadn't been spoiled with the ceramic pots initially, I wouldn't mind the new pots as much. On the other had, I would still have a hard time removing the inner pot and with how easy they are to tip. On the other hand, I don't think I would like them anyway. 😊😂 I'm glad they are working for you. Thanks for watching and sharing your opinion.

      Yes, the plants have been swimming in water. Where I live they are almost always outside and when it rains, the pots are full of water. Good for clearance but bad for the plants. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

      I have literally showed employees at these stores to put 2 inches of water and let it wick. They truly don't know I loved the ceramic pots and having that pot made the purchase worth it if the plant didn't make it. I think the self watering and plastic pots look tacky. I repot and toss them

    I’m sorry. I never liked those pots. I kept the plants but put them in pots I actually liked.

    They should offer us a choice! I use pon. So, for me this isn’t a problem. I can see how it wouldn’t be for everyone.

      I'm glad it's working out for you. I understand that companies sometimes need to make changes, but the Trending Tropicals just aren't the same to me, without the ceramic pot. They spoiled me then ran off. 😳😧😮🌿

    Oh, Peggy! I wish you lived close to me. I’ve got a stack of Costa Farms ceramic (and plastic) pots you could have. I personally don’t like to use them because it’s too hard to not over water and kill my plant. As soon as I get home from the store, I take the inside pot out and put it in a little drip saucer. I discard the ceramic/plastic pot in a stack behind my garage. I keep thinking I’ll get brave enough to try to drill a hole in the bottom of the pot, but to date, I’ve not tried. 😊

      How sweet of you. At least you know you have a stack of nice ceramic pots if you ever decide to start using them. I use to use them when I gifted propagations, but won't be doing that anymore. Happy growing!

      Sorry to hear you don't like them. If it's helpful, here's the method I use to water my plants. I add an inch or so of water to the decorative pot, let the potting mix soak it up, and then dump any excess water out of the decorative pot after 15-20 minutes. Then I wait until the plant starts to dry and repeat. As long as you go good stretches in between waterings, it's tough to overwater this way because the potting mix won't absorb too much if it's already wet. ---Justin, Costa Farms Horticulturist

      @@CostaFarms Justin, don’t get me wrong. I think the ceramic CostaFarms pots are gorgeous, and look great with the plant choices selected for the pots. As a senior gardener, I don’t have the grip strength in my fingers to lift the nursery pot from the ceramic pot. To remove the nursery pot, I have to get a long bladed sharp knife, insert it between the nursery pot and the decorative pot , turn them upside down, and walk the knife around the pot until it falls out. If it’s been overwatered at the store, the pot winds up peeing all over the place. Not a fun experience. That’s why it’s so much simpler to remove the decorative pot as soon as I get home from the store. I hate losing the pretty aesthetic, but I value the health of the plant. Btw, I probably have 50-60 CostaFarms plants. 💚

    I would imagine that to keep their plants at the $20 range in this horrible inflation economy they sacrificed the ceramic pot 🪴

      Quite possibly. Would be nice to know. I notice that many of the other sellers, like Urban Jungle, are offering some of the same plants in beautiful ceramic pots. There are other options, but Trending Tropicals were my go to guys.

    Unfortunate! I understand they need to keep costs at bay, I would have taken a small price increase for the porcelain pots. I HATE plastic pots! Especially for nice plants, no stability and they don't age well.

      I agree! Fortunately there are other growers who are offering many of the same plants in nice pots. I will admit, my eye has been wandering lately...😂🌿💚😊 Thanks for watching!
