    Plant Foldies is like to see if you counted how many times you heard me say “consistent” in the video and also your take backs from this video. Please reply on this comment I’d love to know your thoughts ❤

    26:09 I have done videos of local small businesses that are plant stores, but I have not done big box to compare those videos with. I do think that my “plant shopping at such and such local business” tend to get more traction that some of my other plant YouTube videos. I think that might be the algorithm picking up the key word “shopping.”
