‘Just call me Charlie Dimmock’ says Mrs Hinch as she discovers genius planting hack that’ll speed up the process
PLANTING can be a pretty messy and tiring process – but luckily, Mrs Hinch has come to rescue once again.
The savvy mum-of-two, also known as Sophie Hinchliffe, took to Instagram earlier this week to share a genius hack for fellow gardening enthusiasts.
According to the cleanfluencer, who rose to fame in 2018, the secret to achieving a stunning flower is easy – and there’s no digging involved.
That’s right, instead of spending ages trying to make the perfect spot for your plants, Sophie, 34, advised to take them out of their pots – and then ”more or less bury” these into the soil.
She demonstrated in the video shared on her stories: ”And then when you take them out, it’s the perfect size to put in [your plants].
”And they fit in there perfectly,” the cleaning whizz was all chuffed with the somewhat genius discovery.
Once done, the savvy mum-of-two, who lives in £1.1m five-bed Essex farm, advised to use the leftover soil ”to pad them out”.
”I actually can’y believe it!” Sophie said, proudly showing off the transformation, which included gorgeous plants with purple blooms, as well as pastel hues.
”Just call me Charlie Dimmock,” the star chuckled, comparing herself to the English gardening expert and television presenter.
‘Satisfaction level 100’
The cleaning-obsessed mum recently also transformed her kids’ green stained treehouse in minutes using a jet washer – and the results are super satisfying.
In the short clip shared on her Instagram, fans saw the influencer use her jet wash to get the grubby treehouse sparkling.
Alongside the post, Sophie penned: “We jet washed the boys’ treehouse yesterday.”
All chuffed with the major glow-up, Mrs Hinch beamed: “Satisfaction level 100!”
With the freshly cleaned threehousee in the background, Sophie said: “Henry and the floofs loving the sun!
“The weather here yesterday was so beautiful, but today it’s raining and crazy wind.
“One of my hens almost blew across the garden.”
Fancy giving jet washing a try? Loose Women star Stacey Solomon recently revealed a simple trick that makes it much easier.
She advised: “Top jet wash tip – start high.”
She recommended: “Don’t forget the walls before the floor!
“Otherwise your wall gunk will seep into your clean floor!”
Who is Mrs Hinch?
Sophie found fame online thanks to her cleaning hacks and spotless home interiors.
The cleaning guru revealed that at the time, she wasn’t looking for fame online, but decided to create the Home account to avoid “clogging up my personal Instagram and boring everyone with home pictures”.
In her 20s, the star suffered from “anxiety and panic attacks” — but found that cleaning would help her cope.
“I would then get up and grab a cloth or a mop or a hoover and just start going.”
What is Mrs Hinch’s net worth?
As reported by the Sun last year, in 2023, Mrs Hinch’s Instagram account makes Sophie the second best paid cleaning influencer in the world.
Research has revealed the cleaning-obsessed mum rakes in an average of £5.9k every time she posts on social media.
