Hello everybody, new plant owner here! Was hoping to get some recommendations on different houseplants to look into as I’m starting to build my collection? I don’t have a preference just excited to get started!

How do you make your own soil? Do you buy soil to mix or do you do something completely different?

Anyone get new plants?😏. What did you get?!

Got this 10” potted group of 4 monstera deliciosa from Publix for 30$, waited a week to repot them all into their own pots. Awful awful choice. The root ball is the entire pot and I’ve been blasting away soil for 25 minutes straight with the hose. I am determined to separate the 4 plants so that we can keep each one alive and not have one ultimately outgrow and suffocate the other 3. Last resort is going to be snipping through the root ball but does anybody have any recommendations or advice before the mosquitoes convince me to get violent?

New to this app after recently moving and getting back into houseplants. Excited to share my first two purchases, a coconut orchid and a hoya! Here’s hoping I can keep them alive!🤞🏻In the thumb spectrum, I’m somewhere between green and black. 😝 I hope everyone is enjoying their day, wherever it finds you. ☺️

Put this calathea outside honestly to let it die and it’s pushing out new leaves and started flowering. Idk if I should be offended or proud

Satisfying Sunday! What’s the most satisfying part of having plants? Is it new growth, calming vibes, caring rituals?

Just wondering if any of you make your own mixes? I was getting low so I filled all three of these today. I buy huge amounts of everything, (soil, perlite, orchid back and warm castings). So much cheaper in the long run.

I posted yesterday about visiting a plant event near me and a couple people asked what I bought. So I made this post so people would see it rather than on original post. First pic includes a sensitive plant which was closed up at the time. The calathea and pothos are replacements. The others are new to me. Finally found a sansevieria ghost. The first plant was totally new to me. It’s a haworthia. I’ve visited this event a few times and it’s always a great experience. Everyone is always friendly

If I cut and put in new pots, will the plant survive? Where should I chop?

Gnats

Hi all! I’m hoping for some advice. I have a money tree that I’ve cared for since it was a baby, and she’s now quite large and still growing. I also recently added a baby olive tree to my collection. This season, I’ve noticed a plethora of gnats, and they seem especially drawn to those two plants. So far, I’ve cleaned my windowsills with Clorox, used plant-safe spray on the plants, caulked the windowsills, added a Zevo UV light catcher, and had my building come out to exterminate. They’re also scheduled to come again on Tuesday. I don’t have fruit sitting out, and I keep a very clean home, so I’m at a bit of a loss. We live in a sun-facing apartment, and I’m wondering if the combination of warmth, plants, and soil moisture is making things worse. Has anyone dealt with this before, especially with money trees or olive trees? Any advice on what to do next to minimize or get rid of the gnats would be so appreciated. I am very much not a bug person, and they are driving me crazy.

Hi all! As a beginner, I have a question for all of the plant gurus out there. So my living space is not ideal for most plants (I live in a basement, only get light at specific times, wall ac units) but I want to keep plants alive! Are there any plants people would recommend for my kind of environment?
