Happy national plant day Here are my newbies
Weβre about fortnight in, the Claria grow light has arrived I bought a bundle so Iβve another but want to wait until the mrs gets home before putting more up π€£ Does anyone have suggestions or should I give it a week before anymore movement. Iβm going to setup a insta page to track progress but unsure if itβs allowed to share but sharing some of the snaps Iβve taken recently
Just a general question and poll, if your humidity level sits at 50% and above do you still mist regularly or just when leaves are unfurling?
A few years ago my daughter gave me this plant because she wasnβt giving it the proper care and it was looking pretty bad. It was in a very small plastic planter. It had two leaf stems with what was left of the leaves. She had trimmed off the dried parts. The leaves were probably about two inches long. Well yesterday, I had to repot it again because it has been doing so well. It was extremely root bound and Iβm sure I did some damage. Itβs still looking a little droopy but seems to be doing ok. I had a few plants at the time. But thatβs when I started getting serious. Now Iβm at 200, which has to come down. Probably about 50 tropicals and the rest succulents. I have learned so much in that time. Made many mistakes but I certainly am enjoying tending these beauties every day.
Showing up uninvited and unannounced gave me a villainous first impression from these 60βs-english-hippie-bowlcutted-boyband visitors.. theyβre in luck that to be discovered in the day and age of chatgpt or they would of been lizard food lol the pollinators be pollinating πͺ²πͺ²πͺ²

Purchased this forever and a day ago. Iβve had it rooting in a glass of water for what feels like 2 months lol. I guess Iβll plop it into some soil now
New plants will be here Monday!!
A week on from my first batch and Iβve been super obsessed. Iβve been buying from a uk supplier, unsure if able to name so I wonβt, but Iβve accumulated around 30 plants now from rescue boxes to rare additions that just caught my eye and allowed me to use some vouchers. Can people suggest good grow lights, whether being south facing window but out of direct will be good enough, whether standard humidity will be ok (currently running a humidifier but the plug does t allow me to move too far from the plants so itβs say on a low shelf) I wanted to maximise the light so I put the reflective sheet behind the shelf for the time being Some of the new additions are; Anthurium queen of hearts Anthurium forgetti x Gigi Two mottled syns Three alocasia suhirmanaina reds Alocasia Ninja Philodendron caramel Anything people suggest openly welcome
My baby had to come home from hubbys work!
My pride and joy. Was told that this is a wizard coleus, but Iβm thinking itβs a kong variety. Either way, sheβs stunning.

Iβve fallen into a Rune craze as of recent & carefully curated & picked symbolically relevant runes to align with the symbolism of each of my plants! For myβ¦ Cosmos: Wunjo, Algiz, & Ingwaz, aka Feeling -> Protection -> Manifestation. Extra protection for these moody, more delicate flowers πΊ βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ- Sunflower: Sowilo, Tiwaz, & Jera, aka Light -> Will -> Abundance The light the sunflower wills itself to follow throughout the day rewards it abundantly in the end π» βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ- Sugarcane: Jera, Ingwae, and Eiwaz, aka Becoming -> Life -> Transformation. Sugarcane, where a cutoff stock becomes another shoot. A fast growing and regenerative life. The various transformtions it is made into like sugar, molasses, rum, etc. π¬ βββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ- Mojito Min: Laguz, Kenaz, and Ansuz, aka Flow -> Fire -> Presence Mint, flows under the soil popping up wherever it wants.
