Houseplant Care - Choosing The Right Plant for the Right Place
Most house plants are comfortable in the same temperatures we
are. Coming from tropical climates, they feel most at home
temperatures from 65 to 75º F. Some, like cactus and
succulents can tolerate much higher and lower temperatures having
evolved in desert climates with very high and low temperature
extremes. Proper houseplant
care requires that you take into consideration the
place of origin of a plant and try to match it to the
micro-environment you are trying fill. If the area is next to the
oven or on a hot window sill, then a desert plant such as an Aloe
vera will do well in the higher temperatures and light that area of
your home generally experiences. If you are looking to fill a space
in your bathroom, where it will be moist and shady, think of a
fern. Finding the right plant for the right area is
probably the most important factor in ensuring proper
houseplant care and a healthy
plant.
Houseplant Care - Light
All plants need light to grow, but the amount will vary by type.
Most will need moderate to high light, but only a few such as
cactus can tolerate direct sunlight. Houseplants can be grown using
only artificial light, but most will need some exposure to natural
sunlight to thrive. The natural sunlight will provide the full
spectrum of light needed to maintain all life-cycle processes. This
is particularly true for flowering varieties. Direct sun can be
very harsh on most plants, particularly when it is magnified
through window glass. Make sure you provide some filter for full
summer sun, either by pulling the shades or periodically moving the
plant out of the direct rays for proper houseplant
care. Most houseplants are generally classified according
to four basic light requirements; full sun, semi-sun, semi-shade
and shade.
Houseplant Care - Temperature
Temperature is key to a plant's growth since most will go
dormant if the temperature drops to low. When trying to find the
appropriate place for a plant, good houseplant
care suggests you take note not only of the "average"
temperature of the area, but also if the area gets frequent drafts,
such as a doorway. As general rule, avoid placing plants too close
to windows since the air near the window can experience much higher
or lower temperatures than that of the rest of the room. Most
plants can generally tolerate a much larger variation in
temperatures than most people would expect. But if you think this
might be the case, you need to adjust your care accordingly, For
example, if you expect the temperature to be below the ideal range,
such as in winter, reduce the watering amount or frequency. If the
temperature will be higher than expected, give the plant additional
water to maintain humidity.
Houseplant Care - Moisture and Watering
Watering is probably the most problematic area of
houseplant care. Most people over water and this
can quickly kill the plant. Most plants should be kept moist but
not wet and there are a number of ways to provide the plant with
water that do not involve direct watering. The simplest way to
maintain humidity is to mist the plants regularly and to use a
water-absorbing gel like as AquaRocks. AquaRocks as great at keeping
soil moist and holding water after waterings. You're plants only
use the water when they need it. It's a great tool in your
houseplant care kit. When watering a particular
plant, you should pay attention to the variety, as some such as
cyclamen will benefit from bottom watering. Otherwise, watering
from the top will suit most plants just fine. Or you can use our
AquaSpikes for direct root watering.
AquaSpikes are incredibly easy to use. You just screw them onto the
top of old two-liter plastic bottles, saw the bottom off the
bottle, and then sink them into the soil. Fill the bottle with
water and liquid feed, and your watering is done for the next few
days or even longer. When used with AquaRocks, one application can
keep your soil moist for weeks! Now that's
houseplant care! Sink them into the soil
just a little bit for quick watering of shallow roots, or deeper
for established plants, where surface watering often has difficulty
penetrating down to new roots! You can set one in a houseplant and
refill it in seconds with the watering can as you "do the rounds"
in your home.

houseplant care includes the use of a balanced,
