Houseplant Care — farming

Friend, fellow plant parent and author of the 'Leave it the Fuck Alone' approach, Adam of Dirty Roots Berlin interviews SE founder Karina in this blog post:  Here's their conversation   

Cleaning leaves and enjoying that afterglow is a such rewarding plant care ritual! Spraying your plants and being rewarded with that radiant, healthy shine is a plant parent joy, a bit like putting on a fresh coat of paint. When we offer plants nutrients via their leaves it’s called ‘foliar feeding’ and it’s where our botanical tonics shine! Foliar feeding helps treat nutrient deficiencies while boosting plant growth, plus it’s a fantastic way to clean leaves while preventing and treating pests!

Mushrooms popping up in your houseplant soil? No need for concern friends. It’s actually a sign of good luck in some cultures! These saprophytic fungi don’t harm your plants and in fact, can even help them! This is a perfect opportunity to explore the relationship between soil microbes and how they interact with our houseplants!
