What is the best kind of indoor plant fertilizer to use?

Go to a garden center and look for a fertilizer with “indoor plant” on the label. You will use less fertilizer for plants inside versus outside, so ensure you use the rate specified for indoor plants. If you are getting fertilizer for blooming plants, look for a fertilizer labeled with the type of plant (orchids, for example) but if it is unclear which one you should pick, it is fine to use fertilizer for houseplants.

How do I get rid of bugs on indoor plants?

Bugs on your indoor plants can be annoying! If you spot pests, go to a garden center, and purchase an insecticidal soap, which usually is contained in a spray bottle. When you notice bugs, spray the entire plant – the undersides and tops of the leaves as well as the stem. Next, wait about two weeks and repeat the spraying. Then, wait two more weeks and spray again.

You will want to spray three times because the soap usually will not eliminate eggs, which could hatch. If your plant is dealing with a severe infestation and you are unable to eradicate the pests, throw out the plant. You can also use a damp paper towel to remove a pest.

How do I know when to water my indoor plant?

Over-watering is a common mistake, and you will want to make sure the plant requires water now or if it should wait until later. Here are some ways to see if it’s time to water:

  • Soil probe – This probe will draw out soil, which will help you understand how dry the soil is below the surface.
  • Moisture meter – This tool tells you, on a scale, how dry soil is.
  • Lifting the plant up – Heaviness signifies the plant has enough water, but lightness signifies the plant is dry.
  • Wilting – Wilting typically happens because the plant is not getting sufficient water. Lift the plant to see if it is light in weight or if it’s heavy.
  • Tipping – If the leaf edges begin browning and are crispy to the touch, the plant likely needs water. If the leaf edges are becoming brown but feel mushy, the plant has likely gotten too much water.
  • Yellow Leaves – Yellow leaves may also signify that a plant has too much or too little water, but this is not always the case.

In conclusion, indoor plants offer more than just aesthetic appeal; they contribute to a positive atmosphere, air purification, and improved well-being. Whether you have limited space or are a seasoned enthusiast, understanding their specific needs and care is key to ensuring their longevity and continued positive impact on your indoor spaces.
