Help me pick my next plants (6-8).
I live in the subarctic and most of the plants here are what you would find at the grocery store or they are very expensive. I’m having a friend bring plants from my favourite nursery when she comes and visits and I need help picking. It’s very dry here so anything that needs humidity has to stay in a greenhouse. Being able to propagate is important to me as I want to share these varieties. Something uncommon or interesting is also essential.
What are your top picks to add to my budding collection?

Planta is recommending that I fertilize my new Butterworth but I thought they didn't need it since it's carnivorous? I would like to get more babies out of it so I'm guessing that's what the fertilizer is for. What fertilizer do you recommend using? Or should I turn off the fertilizer reminders? Thanks plant friends 🌵

I have a grow light on most of my plants. I’m at a loss here. I want to set them on a timer and the instructions are kind of confusing to me. Can anyone explain in simple language how to program? And also what is recommended for length of time?

I started the day with 9 notifications that plants need water. That’s all my plants. I’m also having a gnat infestation so they’re all getting treated at the same time. I figured I’d do a group shot!

my rescue orchid is not doing so well. we're down to one not very convincing root. i've decided that because it struggled even in non-soil medium, i will grow it in.. nothing. i'll treat it like an air plant, soak for 30 minutes once every three days and then leave it next to my window. i got it for free so i'm not going to be particularly upset if it dies. will update soon to report how it's going. this is more of an experiment than anything else, i've seen some have success with this method and i'm wondering if it will work for phalaenopsis like it does for other kinds

Is there a way to change the type of plant you have? For example, I have a plant in my garden that was just sprouting when I used the identification tool on Planta. It said it was rosemary, but I can clearly see it was incorrect. I’m pretty sure it’s a woodland sage. But I’ve posted progress updates etc…. So I don’t just want to delete it and start over.
