I would love some product recommendations if you have a moment, TIA!
Budget-friendly is ideal, but I don’t want to spend money on something that doesn’t work
1. Grow lights: I’m in a second level apartment with most of the windows shaded by trees so most of my plants need supplemental light. But they are all spread out, so I’m looking for multiple small lights rather than a few large lights.
2. Moisture meter: all my plants are very young and so I don’t like sticking my finger down and disturbing the young roots to check moisture levels. I’ve been using toothpicks, but I tend to stick them in, intending to coming back in 5 minutes and then forgetting about them completely. I’m just looking for something quick and reliable.
3. Water filter: I don’t have good access to free rain water, but several of my plants are revolting against tap water. I’ve looked online and it doesn’t seem like leaving the tap water out overnight will satisfy my spider plant and triostar. I’m wondering if a water filter (like a Britta) will be good enough, or if there is something specific for plants, or if I’m better off just buying gallons of distilled water?
Thanks for reading! Sad Plant picture is for pity 😅

It's getting colder here in the Midwest. This is the first year I've been using the window shelves. What do I do during the winter? I have older windows so I think it will be too cold right against the window. Do I find other spots for my plants until it's warm again?

I bought a Bolero lipstick plant a few months ago. It is alive but have had absolutely no signs of new growth. Any ideas? I have it in a cabinet with a 35w Sansi grow bulb. It is about 6 inches above and 10 inches to the side of the bulb.

oh no! I’m noticing on my hydrangea plant entry that the flowers are beautiful, but the leaves are all crumpled. Today is Monday morning. They were watered on Saturday afternoon and then on Sunday it rained a little bit. What the heck happened?

something was calling my name earlier and telling me to take them home.
Couple leaves have damage but there’s also sign of new growth!

Any tips on growing a happy Pilea ?? She’s been losing a leaf every few days and barely growing any new leaves. Any tips will help!!

Any suggestions for a plant for the bathroom? I have moved into an in-law suite attached to my daughter and son-in-law’s new home. There is a window but it is high so the plant will only get indirect light. There is a nice space on the sink begging for a plant lol. Most of my plants survived the move and I have googled options. Looking for personal experiences now before I start shopping. Thanks!!

Trying to plan for winter and extra plant spaces not next to any windows and I have some questions for all the plant experts here.
A) What are some grow lights you all would recommend and are there any good strip style ones? I had some previously that came with a stand on Amazon and it didn’t seem like they were actually doing anything so now I’m wary.
B) Also, would you recommend a humidifier and if so what brand do you have for that as well?

Hey y'all, 3 new plants joined our family. 1. Mobee Dyck - whalefin (my other whalefin is Jonah 😁), 2. Cleo - dracaena "Cleopatra" and I don't have a name for #3 the hoya yet. 🤔 suggestions will be welcomed. 💚🌿
