# I’m just coming here to complain so maybe someone can commiserate…

_Posted by V🌱 on 2024-04-30_

I’m just coming here to complain so maybe someone can commiserate with me-

It has been a very damp, dark spring. My plants had a great pop of growth and so I kept watering them as scheduled.

Unfortunately because of the humidity and lack of sun, they’re all now way too overwatered. The soil is retaining too much moisture (despite having well draining soil that accounts for humid air).

The plants that don’t like direct sunlight are experiencing moldly soil (I’m using cinnamon to combat), and or rot of some kind.

I just find myself constantly playing plant Tetris to dry soil out, or give them the light they deserve.

Thank goodness the grow lights are coming tomorrow!!
