I’m new to this app & to having plants. I love being in indoor spaces that have lots of plants. So when I found this app, I decided I’d give it a go about a week ago & bought a 5’6” fiddle leaf tree — need to figure out how to help it create branches, a large snake plant that I divided into 4 pots, a majestic palm, a ponytail plant, an aloe Vera, and a small Kalanchoe Tiger succulent (that last one isn’t in Planta) I read elsewhere that it’s a better idea to put broken pottery over drainage holes than pebbles (plus rocks at the bottom below the soil only raises the water level in the soil). I had broken one of my favorite bowls they had been my father’s the day before I picked up my new plant babies & have put one piece of Daddy’s bowl over each drainage hole —- since it was a bowl, there are very few flat pieces — when I repotted them. It was a big bowl, so I have lots. I like this for sentimental reasons, but want to ask if this is a good thing to do?
