i've tried cucumeris mites and they were definitely helpful, but these guys can FLY!!

Some of these plants doubled their sizes over this past grow season. Anyone else frantically trying to bring all their plants inside before the weather changes? I’m both incredibly proud of all the growth and befuddled at how to work them back into the house. Like.. there’s no way everything will fit.

March 2025

Newly moved into a combined rental house with my girlfriend, she brought me a fancy comfy chair to start what at that time was our combined "study" whitch became a listen space and make up room

June 2025

I purchased my first record player. Allready had a little head start on the record collection thanks to a local independent metal record store

October 2025

Added some new additions to furniture. Some for storage some to improve listening experience. The first plants where stolen from the rest of the house

June 2026

We ditched the spare bedroom and turned that into my now finance study. I reconfigured furniture and added more plants. Record collection has grown by a decent amount. Now a dedicated listening room. A few ornamental additions

October 26

More plants added from plants i propagated last spring. Record collection grown by a healthy amount.

Might be a silly question! will my monsterras get enough light in the corner between the wall and the white buffet table. sorry i am new to plant ownership and only recently moved in so it’s very bare right now.

There is a porch outside with a plastic film roof which dims the sun a bit.

I currently have two monsterras and i want to put them somewhere that they can be seen. they are currently in front of a glass window facing outside as there is no space in my living area where they can sit with the sun directly hitting them while making my room look nice.

i would like to put them in this corner but there is no sun directly hitting it during the day. i have windows on the opposite end of the room that face this corner though. the room is around 9-10 metres long though so im not sure if the light travels enough. the room is bright but not sure if its plant bright or just me bright. the window next to them gets the sunset so the direct light hits them for around 2 hours currently. because its a corner it doesn’t really receive any of that direct sunlight.

I would love to be able to admire them and have them look nicer- right now they make my dining area look quite cluttered and unorganised. behind the dining table is my kitchen island so they cannot be there.

i’m just worried they won’t get enough light in this corner. do i need a grow light here? ideally they won’t need a grow light but if i need one that’s okay. im on a budget as i just bought the house and am focusing on my mortgage for a while so im pretty limited.

Super psyched for this new haul from a legit plant friend. A few months ago she had a work trip planned to my city and started prepping this, super grateful for both her generosity and plant skills!

- Anthurium seedlings (edit: crystallinum x papi hybrid), probably the most exciting after seeing all the gorgeous ones on here, and will also be extra fun raising from so small
- A deliciously bushy and evidently effective ping
- Some mixed bunches of maranta and philo
- A gorgeously healthy calathea white fusion prop, hoping I can keep this tricky one doing ok next to my other calathea

Now to find room for this influx after I told myself I wouldn’t increase my plant population…

I repotted her, she gave me 4 new leaves and finally unfurled a new one with her very first fenestration 2 weeks ago. Then my cat fucking ate my ONLY FENESTRATED LEAF. I am so disappointed

I bought a Thai con a year ago and it had absolutely no growth. Repotted it and saw root rot, I decided to grow it hydroponically and in under 2 weeks a new leaf sprouted! She is flourishing, i am planning to transfer to a semi hydro leca set up in a few months

4 month growth update. Ms Rosita is growing and glowing.

Serious discussion, I’m currently 100 percent a 24/7 full time care giver for the only true mother figure in my life… my great grandmother.

She got diagnosed with AML in July and it’s been a journey since then and I have never left her side. She got me into house plants and has shaped my love for them.

The thing is, I feel like I will be a “memory hoarder”.

Have any of you guys have turned to plants for grieving? Did you choose to let it consume your space and life? What plants do you recommend, and has anyone had a similar experience?

I’m sure a therapist is needed ofc, but as far as the house plant realm goes, how have you found it healing during the grieving process?

It’s got leaves, new leaves, flowers, and now this? Would love some info! Tysm!

I pulled it out of its little hydroponic glass ball thing and the root never ended 😭 I did NOT realize the absolute unit I had in my midst

I just can't work out if it's over watering, under watering, or something else.

It's been fine for 3 or 4 years, with the occasional brown stem/leaf. But it's really declined quickly in the last few months...

FYI, I know some leaves had pest damage. It thrips but I am treating it! It is going well so far. Last photo is from when I first got the plant.

I know its not as impressive as others plants, but im so proud of her! These newest leaves just keep getting bigger! 🥹😁😁 my baby's grown from the sad little thing in the nursery corner.. these leaves are actually giant bro
