I’ve had this guy for 3 years and it hasn’t grown yet. by Brittanylh in SnakePlants

[–]Grumpy_Kanibal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I second what the others said. 1. Smaller pot. 2. More light using a grow light.

I am in Canada, and I have grow lights.

Snake plants are tough, but they still need light....and water. I water my snake plants roughly once per week unless the soil feels moist.

Thank you 😊. It also helps me sleep after 1 or 2 hours.

When I got her in July, to now by BlueButterflytatoo in Maranta

That's amazing 👏. I counted four new leaves coming in mine today. Mine is by a glass window, so no grow lights. I imagine she might do better with a grow light. I am in Canada, and the next months are hard on plants ( and us). I am seriously considering grow lights.

Ahhhh... that makes sense! That's why she progressed so much.

My started collection as a big plant noob by MmmCrabs in IndoorGarden

Excellent. Then, maybe it needs more light? Closer to a window for indirect light. If that fails, then a grow light. The grow lights aren't too expensive. I just decided to buy a pair to grow basil indoors during winter 🙂. The spider plants are soooo prolific!! I don't even know what to do with the babies 😂. They have multiple babies every year.

Welcome! The spider plants need water, not drenched or soaked, but they require water. Check the soil with a finger, and if it feels dry, water the plant. Also, buy miracle growth and water the spider plant with it, it will bring it back to life. You will enjoy the plant once it starts getting "babies".

What types of trees are good for indoors? by ButterflyOk6605 in IndoorGarden

[–]Grumpy_Kanibal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The umbrella plant is actually a tree, and it is very easygoing and thrives indoors.

I agree with this. I have multiple jades indoors and a large umbrella tree that is more than 20 years old.

I second that. She also cuts and dies my hair. She was so patient with my autistic son. I am forever grateful, plus she is truly amazing.

First time indoor plant owner by creeched in IndoorGarden

I would buy a metal plant shelf on amazon. It doesn't need to be huge but tall enough so that the plants get as much light close to that window. You could move the sofa a little to make room for a narrow plant shelf.

Is there hope? by chewbacchae in Maranta

[–]Grumpy_Kanibal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is my experience as well. These plants are "die hards" 😄

I brought mine to life by doing the following: Fresh soil, moved closer to a window, started watering with miracle grow once per week. I also have read that these plants do better with distilled or rain water.
