How to fertilize Teddy Bear Vine

Nutrient, fertilizer, and repotting needs for Teddy Bear Vine: repot after 2X growth

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.

By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.

To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Teddy Bear Vine after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I was good for a little while, but I broke today. Not only did I order 9 or 10 succulents from thenextgardener.com (recommended by the exceptional @vvvelo, so I can’t wait to get them!!! 🤗), I also went to Lowe’s with my fiance and he got me an #Aglaonema (anyone know what cultivar this is? My app said Red Siam, but I have one of those that is REALLY red, and this one is more of a very light pastel peach color. Either way, it’s beautiful and I love it) and a #TeddyBearVine and a #Syngonium Berry Allusion 🥰🪴😇💖 and I got him a #lithops because he’s starting to become mildly interested in plants and I’m trying to fully convert him to the cult 🤣🤣🤣 And he loves lithops because “they look like brains giving birth to other brains.” 😂 So yeah, I broke my resolve (what else is new) and I am unrepentant! I am STOKED for my new succulents to come and I’ll post when they do! #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #PlantTherapy #babevila

The inspiration came for a singing in the shower surrounded by plants moment. However there is some scientific evidence that plants can benefit from music. So my question is what is the one song that is your "go to" plant song (and don't just say something sing by Robert Plant!!) It could be classical music (Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 21 second movement) or some rock and roll. Whatever it is why not share it? I can pick the best answer. And be creative so feel free to include a Spotify or Apple Music link 🔗 or what that piece of music means for you. For me the song that comes to mind is blue (no not the I'm blue be ba daba da do song) but sing by a very young Lee Ann Rime# (her break out song) Here's the video and Spotify link https:// https:// And supplement it with ELOs Mr Blue Sky (I am Groot !) https:// https:// HOW TO JOIN A GROUP?
