These pots definitely can be used, but be aware of these little details that can make a big difference in the health of your plant. These sealed ceramic pots with tiny (often clogged) drainage holes are better suited for plants being kept outside. #plantsoftiktok #plants

A customer dropped off their ZZ plant for a repot- but it turned out to be more extensive than we thought! Here’s how I fix an overwatered ZZ plant. The process will be the same for other plants, but potentially with different soil. #plantsoftiktok #plants

When underwatering goes too far, roots can die! My Hope for this plant is more frequent watering so that the leaves can refill and become the succulent beasts they once were. It’ll take some time- but absolutely doable. #plantsoftiktok #houseplants @Big Foot Microbes

Money Tree do great in bright light and to be watered around 50% dry. There are other ways to do it, but that’s how I do it. Enjoy! #plantsoftiktok #plants

It’s houseplant repot season here in the northern hemisphere, although it may not feel like it! Here’s a repot I don’t get to do often but is a great option that most people don’t consider! #plantsoftiktok #plants

It’s the season for repotting houseplants! I love showing ya’ll how to be confident in this hobby through these demos. What plant are you hoping for next? #plants #plantsoftiktok

When plants are kept in low light, their risk or root rot increases due to lack of oxygen in the soil. Light, air movement, soil composition, and potting material are all considered when increasing oxygen flow in the soil for the roots. Because we’re keeping this in low light I’m choosing to reduce the amount of moisture-retaining material (soil) as well as a pot material (terra-cotta) that is porous, further increasing oxygen flow to the roots and reducing risk of root rot. *you may end up needing to water more frequently utilizing this method #plantsoftiktok #plants

The customer requested the plant stay in the same size pot. Even though it could go up in pot size there’s no need to unless you’re trying to make a giant plant. I don’t know their reasoning for wanting it in the same size pot but it’s perfectly fine and will give more room for overwatering error. #plantsoftiktok #plants

Here are the techniques I use to repot Peace Lily-soil recipe included! I've also included a way to reduce transplant shock which I find invaluable for plants like this! #plantsoftiktok #houseplants

Houseplant repot, but minimally invasive :) this is how we do it for plant photos. #plants #plantsoftiktok

Holiday cactus, which refer to Christmas Cactus and Thanksgiving Cactus are tropical cacti that do really well in bright light. This is the perfect time of the year to repot them. Wanna know my secret to beautiful blooms? After I repot them in the Spring, I keep them outside in full shade until temperatures drop below 50 degrees Fahrenheit. Lack of light is nearly always the problem when plants aren’t blooming, which full shade solves! #plants #plantsoftiktok

This antique chicken flower pot is on its last leg- I’m sure this plant will do it in. I just couldn’t resist! #plants #plantsoftiktok

A simple and attractive way to water your hanging plants without taking them down. It’s especially useful for the heavy ones or for particularly high ceilings! We’re fans! #plantsoftiktok #plants

Using beneficial fungus when repotting houseplants has wonderful results! I’m looking forward to seeing the results on this maidenhair fern! #plants #plantsoftiktok @Big Foot Microbes

Soil that has been too dry for too long can sometimes start rejecting water. This is how I fix that so the soil accepts water more readily. #plantsoftiktok

Kokedama are fun ways to grow houseplants, you can be especially creative in how you display them as well. Again, this isn’t a traditional or true Kokedama, so perhaps I should say, “Kokedama inspired.” I also hesitate to say “any plant” can do well in Kokedama, but I’m speaking in generalities. I’ll say the vast majority of houseplants you’ll see in any shop or garden center can be grown in this style. #plants #plantsoftiktok

Today Erika and I took on the Scindapsus Pictus a customer dropped off for a repot. She was a healthy queen and I have no notes. #plantsoftiktok #plants

I like to give plants the ideal environment while they recover from transplant shock. Some plants fuss more than others, but never a bad idea to make their lives easier while they process something unatural to them. #plants #plantsoftiktok

You can use other things to bind the wounds, but Velcro tape is what I had on hand. We’ll know if it works if the branches stay alive, indicating the flow of water and nutrients is restored! #plants #plantsoftiktok

Erika and I teamed up for another repot a customer dropped off at our store this week. I recommend bright light to help the plant while it transitions to the new pot. I also like to water these when they’re 100% dry. #plantsoftiktok #plants
