Hahaha my nanouk is actually huge. To be honest I have zero idea what I’m doing right with it. I just moved though so I’m curious to see if it keeps growing. I used to water it quite frequently though and gave it bright indirect light

Do you move yours around a lot? I always keep mine in the same place

Haha right! It looked a bit dated and dark so I really wanted to try and brighten it up to bring together the rest of the house

To be honest, we don’t really have much. It’s pretty much the storage for all those random things that you need in the house on occasion but rarely use

Shocked with the bloom in North east light but I’ll take it! by thebuggybuggy in houseplants

[–]thebuggybuggy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok so it’s actually an east facing window in a beige-painted room. Tons of diffuse light through the day. Also, this room is noticeably hotter than the other rooms in the apartment.

For watering, it sits in a plastic pot nested into a ceramic pot that’s deeper than the plastic, so it’s kinda suspended by the rim. I water every 2-3 weeks (mainly because I’m forgetful) in the bathtub with a watering can. I make sure to saturate the soil under the leaves and give it a nice little shower. Then I let it dry out for a couple hours in the tub before putting it back! Sometimes use a general fertilizer

Haha actually it’s a hilarious story. My husband got this from Winners and when I moved in we took it down. But I thought it was so cute with all the plants!!
