Plants alone aren’t enough. Care + Knowledge = Healthy Indoor Garden.
Tips to Keep Your Indoor Garden Thriving
- Right Light Matters
– Place plants near windows with indirect sunlight. Rotate every 7–10 days for balanced growth. - Mind the Watering
– Overwatering is the #1 indoor plant killer. Use the “finger test” — water only when the top inch of soil feels dry. - Humidity Boost
– Mist leaves lightly or keep a bowl of water nearby to balance the dry air from ACs & fans. - Choose Air-Purifying Plants – Spider Plant, Snake Plant, and Peace Lily thrive indoors while removing toxins from the air.
- Check for Hidden Pests
– Inspect leaves weekly for mealybugs or fungus gnats; treat early with neem spray. - Have the Right Tools
– Small tools like spray bottles, pruning scissors, moisture meters, and proper pots make plant care easier and more effective
Pro Tip: Grouping plants together creates a microclimate and keeps humidity levels consistent.
