Repotting & humidity tips

2025/4/29 Edited to

... Read moreHumidity plays a crucial role in plant health. Most houseplants thrive in a humidity range of 40-60%. To maintain optimal humidity levels, mist the leaves regularly or utilize a pebble tray filled with water beneath the plant pot. This creates a microenvironment that retains moisture, promoting healthy growth. When it comes to repotting, avoid waiting too long. Most indoor plants benefit from being repotted every 1-2 years, or sooner if you notice roots growing out of the drainage holes. Always use fresh potting mix to provide the necessary nutrients for your plants so they can flourish. A well-timed repotting session not only rejuvenates the plant but also allows for better root development and moisture absorption.
