Hey! New to the plant world! Trying to make my own chunky soil mix… I have leca and coco coir, literally nowhere says the preparation I’m looking for. Do I soak/ rinse before adding to my soil mix? I don’t use soil often, so will it mold or go bad in a container?

I have my elephant ears currently in a tropical soil mix based off of what the app recommends. However, I feel like it might not be doing it justice. I will be moving them to larger pots and would like to know if anybody recommends a different type of soil. I live in coastal Georgia so take that into consideration.

Hi everyone! I’ve recently just adopted a cat and I’m having a really hard time keeping him away from my plants. I don’t realize how many of my plant babies were toxic (hence the empty plant hanger lol) so I’ve had to reorganize a lot and luckily now that it’s nice out I could move most to the balcony but for extra security I really wanted to find something to keep him off them any recommendations? I’ve seen sprays and other things but I was hoping for actual verified used stuff that works and doesn’t hurt my plant babies or him.

I bought this church from someone who didn't have the love anymore for it and knew it would be perfect for my garden. What do you recommend I do with it? Clean it up? Leave the moss? 🤔 I wondered - is the top of the church too minimal for a plant to grow? ⛪💓

Behind it, I also have a gnome with a wheelbarrow that my other half chose. Should I fill the barrow with plants any recommendations welcome.

I am having a serious “Mandela” moment right now. I know for a fact that I have purchased Miracle Gro Potting Soil with Extra Drainage in a blue bag multiple times. Now it’s labeled as “moisture control” and I can’t find anything online about it being renamed, a different product or anything. I feel CRAZY!
Am I crazy?

Match up Monday! When it is time to check the soil before watering, are you team moisture meter or team finger test?!

The Blueberry is in the curing jars
The harvest was nice 2 jars of nugs
And 2 jars of flare to squeeze and turn into edibles
Not bad I'd say

My Fiddle-leaf/Ficus lyrata, I don’t know the difference.. It’s been like that for 3 years!! No extra leafs on stem, just this looong space between the top and the bottom. Any tips on how to break its stagnate state? I thought about doing a cutting..👀

Watering all my plants and noticing there’s so much new life

Need a little advice for my first pencil cactus. She’s a few years old; we’re Texas Zone 9B so she must come in for the winter, where she shares a grow light and a couple windows with a few other cacti who seem happy. Appears to be LOTS of new growth this year (almost a foot!) but would we call this etiolation since the main stem is the same diameter bottom to top and there really are no spindly arms (just one that was closest to the wall)? Or is it? Seems like she’d be a little more tangly looking at this point.
Plan to repot here in a couple days but should I behead her? She’ll live out in the yard til November in her usual spot. But I want to give her the best chance at her best life! TIA!!
