I’m getting back into plants, I have put a few on this shelf and it is in direct sunlight from the window but I fear it’s too far away, if I put it against the back door the patio covers the sunlight coming in. What should I do for the best lighting for my indoor plants?

Hi everyone, I love my plants, lots of jade plants. Some said I need to hard prune them. What’s your advice?

I’m new to lemon trees and trying to grow one. So I was misting it and noticed the water sitting and realized it was cobwebs!!! Does anyone know what to do, and/or what spider or whatever it is did this?

Just repotted my echeveria and it was my first time ever repotting a plant… I’m nervous, is there anything I can do to save it if things go downhill?

I just started using grow lights. Mine have pink blue and white lights. I can switch them and make them bright or dim. Can anyone please help me with how I need to set it?

Hey guys i got this mixed plant arrangement as a gift, ive never gotten one before so i have no idea on what to do with it?? Do i keep it like this or separate them? I feel like it looks so good all together but i know they all have their own needs.

I was SO excited when my philodendron “Philomena” flowered! Apparently it’s very rare for that to happen when it’s a houseplant and only happens when the environment is perfect. Needless to say, my home conditions are less than perfect. 😂

I have some extra Orchid Moss. Is it okay to place it on top of the plant soil at the base of the plant?

This is my second time owning a string of pearls:) my other one thrived but unfortunately my boyfriend accidentally killed it while I was on vacation. I’ve researched the string of pearls to get an idea of how to care for it again (once you have so many plant babies you tend to get fuzzy on how to care for specific ones) but I’d appreciate any tips/any one else’s care guides!!! (Watering, lighting, sensitivities)

How’s Liz looking? Does she need a new pot? She only has a couple of tiny bits of root poking through the holes at the bottom, but I wonder if she’d like more room.
