Plant Care 101: The Basics
Itβs kind of hard to give a super basic guide to plant care because plants are super diverse and have varying care requirements BUT there are some things that every plant needs and that you can apply pretty broadly to caring for plants. This is going to be focused on container plants and houseplants more than plants in the ground/garden because thatβs a whole other can of worms, but yeah, anyway, hereβs some quick tips for beginner plant ownership.
1. LIGHTING - Think about where youβre actually going to put your plants
β¦ before you get them (ideally). All plants need light. No plant will live in a windowless bathroom or basement (I mean unless you have grow lights BUT thatβs another story). Very few plants will survive in a dark, dim corner.
Figure out which direction your house faces! Different plants do best in different light exposures.Β Afternoon sun (west) is hotter than morning sun (east) and can dehydrate plants faster or cause sunburn. Southern exposures get the most direct sun, and northern exposures get mostly indirect sun or no sun. And obstacles like trees or awnings will potentially block light as well.
Full sun is considered 6+ hours of direct sun, part sun is 2-4 hours of direct sun, and shade is less than two hours of direct sun. Keep in mind the sun intensity will vary depending on your location and the time of year.
A lot of houseplants prefer βbright, indirect lightβ. In a window that gets hot, direct sunlight like a south or west window, this could mean putting up a sheer curtain or keeping the plants farther away from the window. East windows generally get bright indirect light all year and north windows may not be bright enough for most except the lowest light plants.
Get plants to suit your space! Do some research! If you have trouble identifying the plants that you already have, try google image searching using various details about it. Sometimes that works.
2. POTS AND SOIL - Think about your plantβs house
Your plantβs house is its pot. When you bring it home from the store or nursery, itβs a good idea to replant it. The soil thatβs best for keeping the plant alive in the store is usually different than the soil thatβs best for it in your house. Especially if youβre getting your plants from stores like Home Depot, Lowes, Wal-mart, etc (itβs gross). Taking a look at a plantβs roots is important! A lot can hide under the surface of the soilβ¦
I canβt really recommend a specific soil brand because everything varies regionally and every plant is going to have different soil needs, so really this is just trial and error. Try out different soils! Experiment with perlite which will make your soil looser and drain better. For succulents, I use a mix of topsoil (not potting soil), sand, and perlite.
You generally want your generic potting soil to A) absorb some moisture but B) drain well. Which may seem contradictory, but it isnβt, I promise.
As for your potβ¦.. DRAINAGE HOLES ARE A MUST. If your pot doesnβt drain, you can put your plant in a plastic insert and remove that to water it, you can attempt to add your own drainage holes, or you can doom your plant to slow and inevitable death. If your pot does have drainage holes, test it first to see if it actually drains.
Increase the size of your plantβs pot only a few inches at a time. Tiny plants in giant pots arenβt ideal, mainly because the soil dries down inconsistently. The soil around the edges may be dry but soil at the roots may still be wet. Also, donβt plant your plants too low! The soil should stop about an inch or so below the top of the pot. Planting too low can cause issues with air circulation to the stem/soil which can cause rot issues. (tbh Iβll probably make a specific post about repotting plants because there are a lot of things to know and a lot of tips and tricks)
As for the type of pot, thatβs up to you. Plain terracotta pots are helpful for plants that like to dry down between waterings because they wick moisture from the soilβ¦Β not as ideal for plants that love lots of water. Also, thereβs no shame in plain, plastic pots. None.
3. WATERING - please donβt drown your thirsty boys
This oneβs the hardest to do an overview of because different plants and even the same plants in different locations have vastly different watering needs.
Plants (usually) only take up water when the photosynthesize. Less light = less photosynthesizing = less water taken up. Cloudy day? Less water taken up. In the greenhouse, we generally donβt water on cloudy days because the plants donβt take up as much water and because water sitting on the leaves/soil doesnβt evaporate as quickly potentially leading to rot issues.
You can usually visually tell if the soil is dry. To be more sure that the soil is really dry, poke your finger in about an inch. To be more, more sure, you can wiggle a wooden chopstick in the soil and if it comes out dry, the soil is dry. Some plants prefer to dry down almost completely before watering again, some prefer about 30-50%, some like to stay moist but not drowning.
If your plant appears to be wilting, check the soil. If itβs wet, it may be overwatered or sick. Donβt water for a bit and check the stem/roots for rot. If itβs dry, itβs likely underwatered. Very dry soil can take a few repeat waterings to actually absorb moisture again.
It is better to water deeply infrequently than to water in small amounts more frequently. Your goal when watering is to dump in enough water that it flows vigorously out of the drainage holes. When I first started watering plants I thought it was way too much but seriously, dump that water in there. No trickles allowed.
4. PLANT ISSUES - wtf is wrong with my plant
Youβre going to run into plant issues when keeping plants, thatβs just how it is. Diseases, bugs, rot, etc.
There are WAY too many issues to get into in a basic post like this, but in generalβ¦. pay attention to your plant! Look at the undersides of the leaves and leaf tips and the stem. Take lots of pictures! Touch your plant and the soil! Keep an eye out for changes.
If your plant does develop what you think is an issue, google is your friend. Iβve googled so much of the stuff I know about plants, even when Iβm working with very experienced growers. Google is good. Donβt rely solely on one source of info.
And if your plant unfortunately kicks the bucket? No, you donβt have a black thumb. There is no such thing. Thatβs especially a time to google the shit out of that plant and re-evaluate your growing conditions. Iβve killed LOADS of plants and that was usually because I put a plant in a less than ideal location and then didnβt give it the right care. Or because of bad luck.
There is NO SUCH THING as a black thumb.
I think thatβs about it really for the basics. Thereβs also stuff like pH and humidity and temperature, etc etc to consider but thatβs way too much to get into in just one post. Hopefully this makes some kind of sense and isnβt just a wall of text? And is helpful? If you have any other questions, feel free to message me if youβd like. Or add onto this post with other tips if you have them.
