I'm learning this alongside you.
Hi, Iโm Tim. ๐
I run The Chlorophyll Chronicles, a houseplant channel built on a simple premise: I'm not an expert, and I'm not going to pretend to be one.
โI started buying plants the way most people do โ grabbing whatever looked good at the store, bringing it home, and watching it slowly give up. ๐ Then I got a thrips infestation that took months to beat. Then I started buying the worst-looking plants off the clearance rack on purpose, just to find out which ones could actually be saved.
โI film all of it. The plants that recover and the ones that don't.
โEverything I make comes from my own collection โ clearance rescues in various stages of recovery, a Ficus that finally decided to cooperate, and a Monstera Thai Constellation I check on more often than is reasonable. I grow in the Palm Springs desert, so if a routine survives here, it will probably survive at your house.
