In spring, all living things need water to grow, but what do you do with your hanging house plants after the rain? Watering a plant only to have it wilt in the evening makes one very unhappy camper. If a plant has not been watered it will not grow as large as if it had been, and it will not look as pretty. The best time to water your hanging house plants is in the morning, but no later than midnight.
Check hanging house plants each few days to check their water requirements. During hot, summer days they will require more water than at night and in cold, winter nights less water is needed. Low-water plants, like succulents, enjoy it cool weather. Watering it only twice a month, once in the morning and once in the evening is usually enough. However, you should keep in mind that indoor plants are just as susceptible to poor air quality as outdoor plants are.
Most indoor plants will appreciate a sunny window, but you should make sure hanging house plants are protected during the winter months from drafts. If your window is not wide enough, you should choose a screen house, also known as a greenhouse, or purchase several small glass jars that will fill the space. You should use a plastic covering to make sure the pot doesn’t leak and keep the heat inside. If you live in an area where the temperature goes below freezing for extended periods of time, make sure the pots are designed to withstand low temperatures. Never put the pot in the refrigerator, as this will damage the plastic.
Many indoor plant species will thrive if you move them around. If you are trying to grow tropical plants or other plants that love moisture, you can move them inside when the weather starts to get cold. When you move the hanging plants around, remember to water them every couple of days. They will appreciate a couple of hours of soaking up water.
Humidity plays a vital role in the health of hanging house plants. Your indoor plants will not grow if they are stressed out, so you need to keep the humidity levels where they need to be. Too much humidity or dryness will cause diseases, and your flowers and plants won’t grow well either. You should have a humidifier or other heating device in your home to keep the air quality at its best.
There are several things that you should consider about how to grow your plants in containers. The primary consideration is that they should get sufficient light, especially if you’re growing tropical plants or those that prefer a darker green shade of green. Dark green plants tend to be healthier plants because they don’t require as much of the nutrients in the soil. You also need to choose plants that can grow successfully in an area with direct sunlight. If you choose taller plants, however, then you may find that they get too much sun and they must be placed under a shelter, which means that you’ll have to move them to a different place if you place them near windows or doors.
It’s important to consider the location of the plants as well, especially if you place them under windows. Some of the English ivy grows quite tall, so it’s important that you place it at least four feet away from windows or doors. Some of the other types of plants you can grow to include the bladderwort, hibiscus, cosmos and gladioli. All of these plants will grow well in pots, but you have to be sure that they get enough light and that their location is appropriate because some of them can become disease-bearing plants.
You can avoid the disease from infecting your indoor plants by making sure that you take good care of them. Make sure that you water them daily, and check to see if they’re getting enough drainage because some types of plants will rot if they don’t have adequate drainage. If you choose a hanging basket, make sure that the baskets have plenty of drainage holes cut out so that excess water can drain away. Choose plants that are disease-resistant, sturdy and durable so that you won’t have to keep re-potting them frequently. Consider adding some flowers or decorative rocks to the baskets, to enhance the overall design.
