What are your choice of materials for moss poles, and how do you make them?

I been thinking about getting a moisture meter. Is it worth it or not?

The funniest thing about becoming a plant person is that Lowe’s has become my favorite store

I love plants

If this stuff alright to use on your plants? I know it’s for plants but I just want to make sure. So far I’ve only used it on my fiddle leaf fig and my zz plant.

Outdoor gardener here but will have to bring 6 inside for winter months. Any suggestions for easy grow lights that work with Alexa devices? Brand new to the entire concept but would really like to automate as much as I can!

I’m looking at two different grow lights to get. It’s for my hallway. My monstera plant is there along with several other plants. This is the set up. I plan to put it in between the shelf and monstera. Which is best to get? They just are not getting enough light here.

Is this 12” trellis good enough for my Albo Syngonium or is it too small? Just repotted my Albo Syngonium yesterday. Put this trellis in and I was just wondering if the trellis was too small. It’s not extendable and I know these grow decently fast. I also know once the aerial roots go down, moving them will damage them so once it starts climbing I don’t want to switch out the trellis. Any recommendations for a trellis will be welcome. I have one more Syngonium that will need staking once a few more leaves come in. Thank you!

Is it inappropriate to request that a partner propose with a soltech light instead of any of the usual fancy things..?

Added two LED Grow Lights (MetryGrow) to supplement the existing window lighting.

I’ve recently learned about using clear pots and am loving them. But I’m finding it difficult to find the cache pots for them to go in that fit correctly. No luck with Amazon or Walmart. I got some good ones at IKEA , but there isn’t a lot of variety. Anyone have a great source?

I am setting up a cabinet for my plants with high humidity needs. I have grow lights and fans installed. Do I put my plant humidifier in the cabinet or will humidity build from the plants without a humidifier?

I’m patting myself on the back a bit for this one. I’ve never had luck getting my plants to grow on a moss pole. The store bought ones are so tightly wound that none of my monstera or pathos plants would anchor in. Last night I ran across a burlap ribbon with my craft supplies and it gave me the idea to make my own. A couple pieces of trellis pole, some moss, thread and the ribbon and I have a custom made pole with holes large enough for easy anchoring and I have plenty of room at the bottom for a deep anchoring of the pole instead of the short post that comes with the store bought poles. It can be added to as the plant grows!

I’m having the worst time finding good grow lights. I’d like recommendations that don’t break the bank but are actually good. I’d like to get some that are wall mounted lights that hang so they are adjustable for height. I have a large monstera & others I need for this part. I’d also like some that work to mount or attach under shelving for a wall display. Then I need of course the typical floor adjustable lights. I’d prefer anything that’s aesthetic because I am that person. I’m very artistic. I’m an artist actually. I do floral botanicals in watercolor. I love things that flow together well. Suggestions? Links & brands would be so helpful! *Recent artwork for post attention.

Home gardeners - Do you have a favorite plant insecticidal soap/neem oil misting spray bottle of some kind? I’d like to invest in one. I’ve seen some battery powered versions and hand pump versions, but need help choosing something decent. Please help!
