Meanwhile, things are happening in the shelf greenhouse! When the flowers are completely open I’ll post pictures of them with their names. They’re all slipper orchids.

Fall's here y'all

Which means it's now far too cold to leave the absolutely massive number of house plants I have outside.

To my dismay

This spot is absolutely magical in the summer. I’m so head over heels in love with my porch that many times over the warm months my partner had to come outside to gently prod in reminding me that food has to be cooked and I have spent the entire day outside losing complete track of time.

I smoke my pipe and hookah out here. I eat my breakfasts and drink my coffee here. I get to wave to all the neighbors and occasionally give away a few plants and veggies.

I love this pouch.

Unfortunately it becomes a barren wasteland in the winter months because I'm just not comfortable sitting outside if it's below 60F, a temperature nowhere even near the average my area gets in the cold months.

Winter is a real downer for me.

But I do have my own little escape in the attic.

The air was noticeably fresher after bringing all these up here. I had spent the entire day before cleaning this space and it was hot and muggy and stale and now It's like stepping into a forest. The air is still humid but now it's a nice kinda oxygenated humid.

The last headcount I did for this space was over 114 individual pots but not necessarily number of plants. I’m really big into companion planting and will very often allow plants to share a pot if the space is available so many of these pots have more than one plant growing in them.

I think they grow better when they have friends.

This count isn't for every plant I got. The big boys like the miracle berry tree/aloe/monstera stay downstairs all winter since hualing plants that lorge into the attic is difficult with the non standard stairwell size and I'll be honest this space is already full to the gills.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my boyfriend for helping me bring all these up here load after load when we both realized we had only that day to move all these little bastards before the frost.

I’ve set up a auto waterer. Some of these plants need more water than I can keep up with so this is really nice for those periods when the winter depression hits hardest.

A handy little thing if you're like me and have a pretty demanding watering schedule:

Really easy to set up. Looks like it fits on just about any kind of bucket lip. I just keep a bucket up here filled with water from the rain barrels. Runs on a battery or a USB. Saved my taros from certain death last year.

Those bitches needs so much fuckin' water.

Anyways. Just giving an update on the plants. I'll talk about the downstairs ones in another post.

Let's talk about one of my upcoming DIY's! If you love plants but say "oh but I don't have a balcony/lots of light/a yard" this is for you.

The most important thing to note about this entire project is that you need to be intentional about what you're buying and doing. So ask yourself a couple questions:

What kind of plants am I going to grow? How big are they?

Do I need to automate things or will I be able to do everything on my own?

This helps you determine how big of a glass cabinet/greenhouse you need and if you're going to be using smart plugs or not.

Now you can absolutely just buy a damn greenhouse online and put it inside. Don't let no one tell you that you can't. But if you're a DIY hottie and like to do things yourself and learn, you could benefit from doing this yourself.

You'll need some tools, for assembly. Probably a circular hole saw to cut a hole in the bottom of your cabinet, some magnets or something to keep the lights up and basic skills. Also a bowl of water to help humidity can be put at the bottom.

"What kind of plants can I grow?" Basically anything that can fit. Plants that need heat and lots of sunlight should be placed towards the top, plants that are okay with a tiny bit less heat and sun should be at the bottom.

"I don't know what to grow!" Cool, Here's some ideas:

Basil

Parsley

Tomatoes

Green onions

Lettuce

Peppers

Lavender

Rosemary

Chamomile

Dandelion

Garlic

Carrots

Marigold

Generally the more space, the better. So if you can get a really tall cabinet and just use a big step stool to reach the plants, do it! You can also buy acrylic shelves to place inside to promote airflow.

Plants can get big, don't be afraid to cut them down a little if your greenhouse becomes more of a jungle than you're okay with.

You can automate this whole thing (save for the watering, kind of) using smart plugs to turn off the fan and lights. For watering, you can buy self watering plant spikes for some of them (unless you want to water them, then that's fine)!

You'll want fertilizer (you can DIY it, or you can buy something like fish fertilizer), soil, and some pots of some sort.

Groceries have been god awfully expensive and this can help save money over time. Less trips to the grocery store and most importantly- you're not riding on someone else to make the prices for you. You pay for the electricity to run it, the water, the materials, and seeds. That's all you need.

example :

good luck and remember: DIY with caution and care!

Green Thumb Inside: Transforming Your Home With An Indoor Greenhouse

Indoor gardening has gained popularity in recent years as more people discover the joy and benefits of growing plants inside their homes. An indoor greenhouse nz provides a perfect solution for plant enthusiasts, allowing them to create a thriving garden oasis within the comfort of their own space.

In this blog post, we will explore the transformative power of an indoor greenhouse and how it can bring life, beauty, and numerous benefits to your home.

Year-Round Plant Growth:

One of the key advantages of an indoor greenhouse is the ability to cultivate plants year-round, regardless of the external climate. By creating a controlled environment, you can provide optimal conditions for plant growth, including temperature, humidity, and lighting. This means you can grow a wide variety of plants, including herbs, vegetables, flowers, and even exotic or tropical species, regardless of the season. Having a year-round garden inside your home adds vibrancy and a touch of nature to your living space.

Improved Air Quality:

Plants are natural air purifiers, removing toxins and releasing oxygen into the environment. An indoor greenhouse increases the number of plants in your home, leading to improved air quality. The plants absorb harmful pollutants and release clean, fresh oxygen, creating a healthier indoor environment for you and your family. Additionally, increased humidity levels in an indoor greenhouse can help alleviate dry air, reducing respiratory issues and improving overall well-being.

Enhancing Home Aesthetics:

An indoor greenhouse transforms your home into a beautiful, green paradise. The lush foliage and vibrant colors of the plants add a visually appealing element to your interior design. You can choose from a variety of plants with different textures, sizes, and colors to create a customized and aesthetically pleasing indoor garden. Whether you prefer a minimalist setup with sleek planters or a more eclectic display with cascading vines and hanging baskets, an indoor greenhouse becomes a focal point that adds character and charm to your home.

Stress Relief and Well-being:

Spending time around plants has been shown to reduce stress levels and improve overall well-being. The soothing presence of nature indoors has a calming effect on the mind and helps create a sense of tranquility. Tending to your indoor greenhouse, nurturing the plants, and watching them grow can be a therapeutic and rewarding experience. The act of gardening has been linked to reducing anxiety, boosting mood, and promoting relaxation, making your indoor greenhouse a haven for self-care and mental rejuvenation.

Educational and Learning Opportunities:

An indoor greenhouse provides a wonderful educational opportunity for both children and adults. It offers a hands-on learning experience about plant life cycles, horticulture, and the importance of environmental conservation. Children can develop a sense of responsibility and learn valuable lessons about nurturing living things. An indoor greenhouse also encourages exploration, curiosity, and a deeper appreciation for the natural world. It is a place where you can discover new plant species, experiment with different growing techniques, and expand your knowledge of gardening.

Conclusion:

Transforming your home with an indoor greenhouse nz offers a multitude of benefits. From year-round plant growth and improved air quality to enhancing home aesthetics, reducing stress, and providing educational opportunities, an indoor greenhouse brings nature's beauty and the joy of gardening right into your living space.

Embrace your green thumb inside and create a thriving oasis that not only adds life and charm to your home but also nourishes your well-being. Discover the transformative power of an indoor greenhouse and enjoy the countless rewards of nurturing and connecting with nature every day.
