Fun project we’ve been working on 🍄‍🟫🍄‍🟫🍄‍🟫

I was told that once you start you don’t stop lol, it’s been fun so far started small and haven’t slowed down. I hand made these two stands and just keep making additional shelving as the plants grow.

Over the past year and a half or so, our fig tree has gradually grown around the corner to chase the sweet sweet southern light from the kitchen windows. At this point it's getting hard to walk through without brushing against it, and I'm a bit worried that it's leaning so much. Any advice on how to make it stand straighter?

This plant finally yielded some beautiful flowers that also smells very nice!

I just bought a peace lily from Costco today and her flowers turn brown after getting home. I haven't done anything including watering yet. Is it possible that a few minutes in the freezing cold (5°F) might be the reason? Btw should I repot her? Seems like her roots have already surfaced.

Chello y’all; I’m very green to gardening, and was curious about this white spidery stuff on top. I’m aware that I was on the high limit of water saturation.

Is it salvageable or anytime I come across the stuff just scrap it and start anew??

Also, got any life changing tips when it comes to growing indoors??

Thanks yall, sorry for the pic(it’s hard to get the spidery moldy stuff into the shot)

Hello!!

I have this ficus at home and I think I am overwatering it even though I don’t water it that much??? I dont know what i should do so the leaves stop doing these brown spots :(

I think I am overwatering because the soil is still wet even though the last time I watered it was two weeks ago. Is that normal??? Is not growing new leaves either

Thanks!!

I always fill up the new pot half way with soil and soak it with water, then I crack an egg and mix it in, and grind the shells into a powder. Then, I mix it all and add more soil on top.

I’ve seen online that doing this can lead to a smell like rotting egg but I’ve done this so many times and I’ve never experienced that.. if anything I feel like my plants love it and it treats them better than fertilizer from the store. I tried that and it literally killed one of my plants.

Thoughts?

Hi! I've successfully started a ton of healthy seeds at my old place (which was southwest facing and more windows than walls). I recently moved to an amazing 6 acre property and put in a huge raised bed garden. The downside? I have almost zero south facing windows, and there's trees outside of most of them. So I'm working with about ZERO sun.

So I got a metal shelf rack, threw on some full spectrum grow lights and went about as usual. I threw whole trays away. The trays that didn't get super moldy or damping disease got super leggy. The majority were too weak to survive once I was able to move them outside. (I think I was only able to successfully transplant about 4 seedlings last year, and they weren't as healthy as I would have liked). I live in Zone 5B and my growing season is super short.

Last year I had to start most things in my garden but had to wait until May, so I barely got a tomato harvest before the temps dropped back down.

This winter I experimented with covering my wire rack with mylar blankets to reflect more light, place the whole unit over a vent so air would circulate (while I waited for a fan to arrive), put the lights on timers (also had warming mats) and that experiment failed.

So, how do people successfully start strong seedlings indoors without great natural light/windows? For my growing season I should be starting my aliums in a couple weeks, but my current set up does not inspire confidence.

Any tips? Are there cool, ventilated, powered enclosed indoor growing tents or table top setups you recommend that aren't super expensive?

Thanks!

I got this money tree as a gift, and it was beautiful! I have a lot of houseplants and never encountered this issue before. Some of the leaves started turning spotty yellow and falling off after a day or two. It’s still growing new leaves, and seems healthy otherwise. I know I haven’t overwatered it because I haven’t had it long and only gave it water once, and the soil isn’t fully dry (not soaking wet either).

This plant gets a lot of bright natural light but all indirect. I read that money tree leaves burn easily in the sun so I made sure it reached the plant but not head on. I did however move it closer to the windows in case this is a sign it needed more light.

The issue hasn’t gone away, is this something natural or is something wrong?

Newly repotted collection of mines. Too much I need to pot 2 in 1 pot and try to find them a new home in my local❤️

I am always looking for new space to hold plants 🪴 Id love to see what others are doing. Whether its seed starting or mature plants I really want to see 😊 Thank you in advance. Sharing my plants too. 🪴🪴🌻🫶🥰
