All of the experts we consulted agreed that it's crucial for a new gardener to see rapid plant development. What this means is that you want to see results quickly.
Greene opines that first-time plant parents want a plant that will show them that they are succeeding. Additionally, Pham recommends seeking for dramatic, expressive plants whose leaves curl, droop, and spread out when they want water and sunshine. You may use a plant's body language as a clue for how to care for it, which is why she appreciates it so much. There is "absolutely no room for speculation." Inconveniently, not all plants scream "help me!" when they're in need of attention.
Plants that are easy to care for and can thrive in a variety of conditions and soil types are a good choice for those just starting out. Easy-care While most houseplants should be able to thrive in a wide range of lighting conditions, it is still a good idea to assess the lighting in the room before purchasing any plants.
In what ways do you test the quality of your lighting?
Having a firm grasp of the lighting situation in your home is crucial to the health of your indoor garden. Despite their frequent use, few people can define the nuances between "bright indirect light," "direct light," and "low light."
Most succulents, cactus, and other plants with thicker leaves thrive in bright, indirect light. When asked about direct sunlight, Pham said, "Whenever you see the ball of the sun, it implies you're receiving several hours of direct light." Some plants are sensitive to direct light and can discolor or burn if exposed to too much of it.
Most houseplants thrive under bright indirect light. Pham explains that brilliant indirect light occurs when one looks out a window but does not see the sun. If you stand in your room and see a delicate haze surrounding your shadow, it is probable that strong indirect light is being used. Seeing a sharp shadow indicates that you are bathed in direct sunlight. When the shadow is diffused, there is less light in the room.
