Home with a cold virus and I have spent the days reorganizing my overcrowded plants every day, repeatedly. Today real progress.

Moved the rhipsalis/ripsalia and dancing bones to join the schlumbergera in the large north window.... A blooming epiphyte gathering. Considering getting some raised stands to make vertical space and maximize capturing the bright light. Gloomy season is coming though.

Most succulent and cactus bunched in the cold bonus room south window but mostly huddled closely in front of a 75 watt grow light. Can open window and give them the outdoor air. Afternoon sun when not overcast. Additional sunny South window not shown.

Total population is down to 80 right now with a clear path to the low 70s by next year 😆 turns out Facebook marketplace is a hot market . Ideal number for this space is more like 50s-60s factoring for size some of these guys are getting big! But indoor gardening is rewarding just the same. Along with the wins is my crowded plant graveyard on planta and let's be real not everyone made the cut for planta plant graveyard some got the delete 😇💀💀💀 it's life.... And death 🤣🙏🏼 the great compost bin.
