Areca palms

A good Areca palm fertiliser contains all the necessary nutrients to help your plant grow. It also prevents yellowing and browning of the leaves, and curbs drooping fronds. Areca palm fertilizer contains compost which is good for the soil microbes. These microbes reduce nutrients and are more readily absorbed by the plants' roots. A good Areca fertilizer will include a combination of organic as well as inorganic nutrients.

Repotting your indoor plant is a great option if you have been having trouble getting it to grow. Repotting encourages faster growth, and prevents fertilizer build-up. Because the palm is sensitive, you should not disturb its roots. It could result in brown tips on its leaves. Before repotting, remove any excess soil from the root ball. Fill the pot with a new mix that is the same depth as the old one and has plenty of drainage holes.

Fertilizers can be purchased in liquid or powder form. Make sure they are safe for foliar feedings. A slow-release fertilizer will provide your plant with nutrients throughout the entire growing season. You can also use micronutrient spray to increase your plant's growth. You should keep in mind that micro-nutrient spray can be costly and cannot be used all year.


Ava palms can reach up to 30 feet in height and can be grown in all climates. Ava palms can be found in parking lots, office spaces, and shopping malls. Their graceful leaves add color to the house.

You will see the best results if your Areca palm is exposed at high humidity levels. This can be difficult to do in a home environment. Mist them once to twice per day.

The best lighting conditions should be combined with adequate humidity levels to achieve the best results. Lastly, be sure to take care of your plants during the day.


Houseplants require a nutrient-rich soil for growth. Use a larger pot than the one they normally use to grow in order to give them the nutrients that they require. This will help them spend more time growing roots rather than top growth. However, don't fertilize to much. This can cause problems. You can mix and match fertilizers. You can also mix some manure and grass clippings.

Golden pothos

There are many ways to grow pothos. From the soil to the lighting, there are many options. This plant requires clean water, fertilizer, and bright indirect sunlight. The ideal room temperature for this plant is between 70-90degF (21-32degC). Your pothos plant should be receiving fresh water every two weeks. You can also add a few drops fertilizer if necessary. To reduce the direct sunlight, you should use dark-colored vase. You should change the water every few days to prevent stagnant water.


In addition to watering, Pothos have a fast growth rate, up to 10 to 12 inches per month. This is not too slow; pothos can grow as long as 18 inches per month in the right conditions. It will take them longer to grow indoors so it's important that you care for them well. Pothos should continue to grow longer vines each year, avoiding stunted growth.

Regular feeding is essential for Golden Pothos. Your plant can be fed as often as twice a week with quarter-strength liquid fertilizer. You can use liquid fertilizer if the plant is actively growing new foliage. It is important to water the plant regularly, because it will reduce the chance of burning. A diluted solution of liquid fertilizer can be used as long as it's well-watered before.

A lot of cuttings are important when purchasing a Golden Pothos Plant. The leaves should feel smooth and crisp. A rigid, green stem is another sign that it's healthy. Golden Pothos love dry soil so make sure you use it. A 6-inch pot is the best size for Golden Pothos indoors.

You can also propagate a pothos in water if you don't wish to use soil. A cutting should be six to twelve inches long with two to three nodes submerged in water. A month later, roots should appear on the potted cut. In soil, potted plants grow faster than those that are grown in water. If you follow these simple steps, potted plants will grow faster. But always remember that you should follow the instructions on the package carefully.

Philodendron

These are some of the things that can be done to encourage houseplants growth. As they age, plants will have different needs. If your plant is near the end of its pot, you might need to either remove its lower leaves or repot it. If your houseplant has outgrown its pot, it should not be moved to another larger pot.

Consider your plant's needs first. Some plants like full sunlight, while others prefer partial shade. The philodendron requires some light, but not enough to thrive in direct sunlight. A plant that can tolerate full sunlight may be best suited for a shaded apartment. Your philodendron will love your attention, regardless of whether it is in a sunny or shaded location.

For your plants, humidity is an important aspect. Without proper humidity, they may show signs of malnutrition, such as dropping lower leaves. Poor drainage can also lead to root rot and reduce the plant’s availability of nutrients. To grow indoor plants quickly, it is important to ensure they receive adequate watering. You should not overwater your indoor plants.

Select a pot that is suitable for the plant. Consider the size and material of the pot. It is important to choose a pot that allows for good drainage and is in proportion to the plant’s root mass. You can transfer your plants to a larger pot if they outgrow it. You should keep in mind that plants can't absorb as much water if they are too large. You can also use plastic pots to make hanging baskets or wall shelves.

For healthy growth, drainage is key. Avoid over-watering your plants. They can drown and not absorb essential nutrients. You should fertilize your plants every other day. You can also use fertilizers or humidifiers if you don't want to water your plants too often. Regular soil checks are important to make sure that it isn't dry out and has no dirt.

How To

Basil Growing Tips

Basil is one the most versatile herbs that you can use in your home. Basil is great for flavoring foods, including soups, sauces and pastas. Here are some tips to grow basil indoors.

  1. Be careful about where you place it. Basil is an annual and will not live more than one season if it isn't in the right spot. It prefers full sunshine but can tolerate some shade. If you want to grow it outside choose an area that is well-ventilated.
  2. Plant the seeds. Basil seeds should always be planted at least 2 weeks before the last frost date. Sow seeds 1/2 inch deep in small pots filled with potting mix. The pots should be covered with clear plastic wrap. Germination usually takes about 10 days. Once the pots are germinated, you can move them to a place where temperatures remain around 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
  3. Transplant the seedlings once they're big enough to handle. Take off the plastic wrap and transfer the seedlings to larger containers. To drain excess moisture, fill each container with potting mixture. Add more potting mixes as necessary. Place the containers in indirect or sunny light. The plants should be misted daily to prevent them from wilting.
  4. Apply a thick layer mulch to the top of your plants after the danger of frost has passed. This will keep them warm and prevent water loss.
  5. Water your plants frequently. Basil requires regular watering in order to thrive. To check how much water your plants need, you can use a rain gauge. Use a timer to automatically turn off irrigation during dry spells.
  6. You should pick your basil at its peak. You can encourage bushier growth by picking the leaves more often.
  7. The leaves can then be dried on paper towels, screens, or other suitable surfaces. The leaves can be stored in glass jars or bags in their refrigerator.
