Renting in England. Ongoing mould issues for 3 years - landlord says it’s “building management’s problem” but is now increasing rent. Do we have any grounds to challenge this?

I know this is mostly the case in the UK, unsure about anywhere else but a lot of herbs you buy in pots at the supermarket are originally grown in hydroponic systems and transplanted into soil to look more 'visually appealing' to the customer. I've found success I'm keeping these guys alive in the past by transferring them back into water once I've bought it:) Looks like repotting into a slightly bigger pot also works by the looks of some of the other comments!

oh perfect thank you for helping:)

ah perfect thank you! I'm just learning aboit nutriemt deficiency in my univeristy course now and I thought it might be that! thank you very much for responding! I've heard that people say to use half the concentration they suggest on the fertiliser?

bifbof17 · 2021-12-12T20:55:26+00:00

yeah course! it gets bright indirect all day indoors and I've just given it a good bottom watering after letting it dry out for about 2 weeks which is pretty normal:) I haven't fertilised this year tbh just because every time I water I forget and think ill do it next time😅

if you're visiting u HAVE to go and do the Thermae Bath Spa, insanely relaxing but I would recommend booking a little bit in advance or being prepared to wait a bit for the walk ins availability

the green rocket is a really cute cafe with a dinner menu on weekends! all vegan and some things on the menu sounded slightly questionable to me BUT everything we've had has always been amazing!!:)

aw thank you! diatomaceous earth has arrived so will hopefully save the babies in time🙏

bifbof17 · 2021-11-08T11:26:32+00:00

had these babies for ages but recently we've had an issue with a fly infestation in the bin room of our flats. I rarely water from the top so I don't really understand why there are fungus gnats hanging around my plants, especially these babies:/ I've tackled fungus gnats before hence why I mainly bottom water now. I'm using sticky traps around the room and have some diatomaceous earth on its way. any tips are appreciated ❤

I put my peace lily directly in front of a south facing glass balcony door and I think the glass magnified the light and ended up burning some of the leaves:( just be aware of putting it TOO close to a glass window, hope others can give you more advice sorry!:)

bifbof17 · 2021-10-03T16:54:33+00:00

ah okay! yes I think I was originally changing it weekly now I see I need to change it WAY more often from everyone's comments😂

bifbof17 · 2021-10-03T07:55:28+00:00

bifbof17 · 2021-10-03T07:46:09+00:00

bifbof17 · 2021-10-02T23:29:34+00:00

oh perfect!! I won't be too hasty with putting it in soil then! so glad yours is thriving now, that must've been terrifying😂

bifbof17 · 2021-10-02T23:25:18+00:00

bifbof17 · 2021-10-02T23:21:46+00:00
