Plant Parenting tips

1.If you are a new plant parent always and always choose water media over soil media for plants. Choose plants accordingly, like for beginners Arrowhead Syngonium, Peace lily, ZZ Plant and Pothos do the best.

2. Succulents are for beginners, that's not true. As a beginner we want to care a lot for our plant on the contrary succulents thrive when they are left unattended.

3. Always ensure good draining potting mix and planter with drainage holes. In case of escaping soil use drainage plate but don't let the plant sit in water.

4. Be aware when your plants need a repot otherwise you will end with a root broomstick.

5. Use a well draining soil mix with customised composition of Orchid Bark, Coconut Coir, Compost and Perlite to avoid root rot and for good aeration.

6. Use humidifiers to create a growing atmosphere for plants but grouping plants could also a good alternative.

7. Pothos release rooting hormone in excessive amount. If you are struggling to get a plant to root just pop a cutting of pothos cutting in water with the other plant.

8. Woody plants are sensitive to water. Water cautiously they are very prone to have stem rot.

9. Avoid unfurling your leaves by yourself. To hasten the process use humidifiers or cover the plant leaf with mild hot towel.

10. Talking to your plants can really help your plants to grow faster. Make them feel wanted.
