  1. I laughed until I cried! Between the witty banter between the 2 of you, the big head filters and the actual video you are 'reviewing' I was hysterical. My husband actually checked on me to see what was going on. I love when you do these videos. Keep up the good work guys!

  2. I love when you roast these things. I had a Mango seed drying out on the window sill when you mentioned in a podcast episode that you had debunked "that fast motion guy" with all the tips and how the Mango thing isn't true. Womp-a-dee womp womp. So what should I do with the Mango seed now? Zone 6a/b (right on the border).
    Love your vids and podcast, so incredibly helpful and I'm happy that gardening and sharing the wealth of knowledge and experience in gardening has become such a plentiful part of your life!

  3. I want straight to the hairpin one- I use that trick with my pothos. You can coil the long runners and pin them so they're touching the potting soil and they will keep rooting. Fun!

  4. How do you feel about growing algae? I ask because I recently found out you can turn it into a biofuel/oil that can be processed into plastics and food(both for people and animals), and would be an excellent post-apocalyptic resource.

  5. MEH!
    A lot of these are on par with the ideas of using Coke to clean a toilet or use Spam to polish your furniture. And why ruin a perfectly good mop handle by burying the base in soil for the moss tower. Better to get a piece of PVC pipe. then hot glue patches of moss to it. And if you're going to wick, make sure you use 100% cotton rope.

  6. Man has yet to actually perform any of these "hacks" to disprove them or to be surprised some may actually work? Its one thing to say they don't. Another thing entirely to prove they don't. Ever going to? Doubt it…. you do these "react" videos over and over. How about backing it up?

  7. Well for pineapples, i bypass the jar of water, and just take it straight outdoors and pop it down almost anywhere, even temporarily in an existing pot plant. They are always happy to get along without much attention until im ready to give it some real ground to grow in.

  8. Thank you for the tampon comment because I was saying the exact same thing, don’t waste your feminine hygiene products on problems that are not that bad, I really appreciate this

    I also did use the straw trick to hold up my bent alocasia leaves, they didn’t heal but they didn’t die as quickly either so it’s worth the effort in some cases
