Indoor Gardening Tools

Proper watering of your plants can be achieved by having the right watering can to get close enough to the center to avoid splashing water on the leaves. This can help prevent plant viruses and diseases.

The right fertilizers for your plants are needed to keep them vibrant and healthy.   During the growing phase is when they need extra nutrients the most.

Supplemental grow lights can make up for insufficient light if you do not have the right light exposure.

During winter when you  have forced-air heat, dryness can be a big problem.  You can solve this problem by controlling the humidity in the house with a mister or humidifier. A humidity tray can help, too, if the plants tend to suffer from dry leaf tips.

Whether it's a terra cotta pot or a decorative ceramic pot, your plant containers must have a hole for  drainage.  If your pot does not, you can  add a layer of  gravel  to allow the excess water to drain off.

You do this by putting  an inch or two of gravel in the bottom of the container before you put in the soil.  The gravel will allow the excess water to run through the potting soil and into the rocks instead of staying in the soil and water-logging the plant.

When it comes to maintenance and grooming, you need pruning shears to do the job.  Pruning is required to give a uniform appearance to your plant. When pests show up,  there are insecticidal soaps and pesticides to quickly destroy them.

The list is endless of all the wonderful products available for you to grow fantastic plants inside.  Plus books with recipes and information to  enlighted and educate you on the specific needs of plants. 

Having vibrant, thriving houseplants to add life,  beauty and health to your home can be achieved with the right tools.  In addition, the added benefits of robust, prolific vegetables and herbs can be a great money saver!!
