Anxiety isnt real. You just have a weak mind which is the same reason you chose the unnatural path in life. A plus for the world to remove your bloodline from this realm.
Let’s hope the Plant Police don’t come looking for you!!! LOL!!!
For the algorithm gods 🙏🏻
I never thought I would say this in a plant video, but Lady Gaga is beautiful
Wait because i live in england and we dont recieve sunlight during the winter months so i need plants that will survive till spring
I’m just a straight guy watching plant videos, this one was a pleasent suprise🤣
I wouldn’t say “zero light.” 🙄
I didn’t water my ZZ for the first month I had it, good to know it wasn’t suffering (^_^ " )
Led light is still light. If you wanted zero light, you could tend to them by candle light
I cant even tolerate your voices. So fake haha
Mu snake plant is in a dark spot without any windows/light for a year now and i only watered it 2 times. So im sure it can thrive anywhere
Just throw a humidifier in there with them and they’ll be fine
I always over water my snake plants, I hate myself. Maybe with this video I put the water bottle down for a few more weeks between
I was actually waiting for something like this because I do live in a house with very few windows and obscured by taller houses all around and the only plant I have managed to keep alive inside is an aloe vera, which I’m sick off because it just doesn’t stop growing and reproducing and I keep getting prickled by it. Even looked up on google which plants survive in "extreme low light" and in most results they don’t even mention aloe, but the plants they do mention I buy and they end up not doing well at all.
Unfortunately, this video only encompasses most of those plants!
But I’m glad at least that you had a snake plant because I was really on the fence of bringing that one inside to the place I wanted it to, since the golden hahnii I have didn’t do well in my room.
In any case. If you want to do this experiment seriously. I think you should have multiple plants of each species. Even with my aloes (and as my grandma who had a jungle in her roof used to say) I notices that individual plants have somewhat unique preferences.
And seriously, give succulents some recognition, the aloe not only can go months without water and with minimal light, it can also very easily recover from being over watered and can also grow in full 12 hours a day sunlight with little water too.
tell me your a drag race fan without telling me your a drag race fan 🤣 I stan
Also, how can you refurbish? more water? Vitamins or minerals?
This video and experiment was great but it kinda felt like abuse towards the plans 😅
Wtf is this. Is he even a man????
plot twist: it’s a fake plant
Why doesn’t this have a million views?? This video has influenced where i keep plants in my room. I dont have to worry about certain plants having a direct light source so I can spread my plants out in the room.
As a plant mom watching this was horrible. You’re like ‘they still look fine’ and I’m like NO THEY DONT GET THEM OUT OF THERE. Poor poor plants. I’m glad you guys didn’t let them die though and are trying to rehabilitate them.
The feeling of hearing someone swear for the first time
Basement Plants
Both snake plant and zz plant are classified as succulent. Succulents moslty need either bright indirect sun or full sun but snake plant and zz plant is the hardest head of hard heads in the succulent world. Id recommend these 2 for anyone who kills alot of plants like me lol
I can’t believe you just did that to calatheas the diva’s of all the plants kinda hurt to watch
The spot I want to put plant is corner of my room it has a empty spot could do with some green but worried they don’t get enough light so I just have to keep move them to the window.
Omg ,I felt like a knife went through my heart when I saw those little one injured 💔😢. Zizi is a strong plant
Thanks for watching me STRUGGLE through quarantine 😂
You guys are the best and have made it a bit easier.

where’s all the "diversity" in this video?
Snake plant used to be called sanseveria but it’s lately been re classed as in the dracaena genus.
No offense but most people learn this in primary school, so please refrain from swearing when you do your videos if you’re going to do elementary level experiments…
If i only use ordinary led light for plant and not get any sunlight, is it still grow for plant??
how about a video on plants that can survive in an air-conditioned room?
Thanks! Will be subscribing!
Dracanea. Pathos. SPIDER PLANT?!?!
Literally torturing plants in the basement for experiments lol
Where are you from? Here in the Dominican Republic, the island is very very moist. You need to water the plants 3 times a week.
of course viola davis was killing it. not surprised
Excuse me?! They see light every time you go in and check on them!
OMG this is so … Queen
My wife and I had a Snake plant and we were told it was called "the immortal plant"
guess what. I died too.
Thank you SOOOO much!!!
This experiment very helpful for me thanks your sharings 🙏🏻🙏🏻
This was so helpful! I’m trying to find the best plant to put in my apartment bathroom that has no window. Also definitely subscribing. Thank you!
this is funny because I literally bought 2 plants today for my room and now I’m home researching and came across your video so watched it, and then at the very end the 2 plants that lasted the longest are the ones I actually bought, talk about timing.
I didn’t know snake plants are great in low light. I’ve been looking into low light plants because most of my house is like a dungeon, so definitely giving that one and the ZZ plant.
Some of those will survive with only light from your bulb
1:44 we love a RuPaul’s Drag Race reference
This guy is hilarious
Plants that don’t get much light need much less watering. Looks like I need to grab my self a snake plant and it will be save and living in the corner of my room if it survives complete darkness it’ll do with some light in my room
