Fall Plant Care Tips
Hello Plant Friends!!
The holidays will be here soon and there are a few things that we can do to keep our greens friends happy and healthy.
Our daylight hours are getting shorter and shorter, so get those moisture meters out, because now is the time to start backing off on the amount of water we give to the low light plants or the plants that are in the interior of our homes and offices. Having the plant’s soil wet for too long is the greatest cause of root rot. By getting a reading from your moisture meter you will have a more accurate "idea" of just how moist the plants soil really is and you can water accordingly. Do not be surprised to find that your plant may only need to be watered once a month!!
If you don't have a moisture meter, I order mine from https://plantninja.co .
We are in our last few weeks of repotting our houseplants up into a larger pot, so if you have been putting this chore off, there is still time. Don't delay, your plant will love you for this!
If you need soil for repotting, order a bag of Plant Ninja’s homemade nutrient dense soil here https://plantninja.co
Continue to feed your happy plants until the end of December and keep checking for pests. Remove them promptly, if you find them.
Spray leaves with Plant Ninja Plant and Leaf Spray to help remove pests, clean leaves, and give your plants some shine! Order here https://plantninja.co
Please forward this to a friend who enjoys happy healthy houseplants!!
