Don't worry if your not sure which type of indoor plant you want to grow in your house. We'll help you find the right plant for you.

Areca palms

A good Areca palm fertilizer contains all the essential nutrients your plant needs to grow properly. It also prevents yellowing and browning of the leaves, and curbs drooping fronds. Another great benefit of Areca palm fertilizer is that it contains compost, which feeds the natural soil microbes. These microbes reduce nutrients and are more readily absorbed by the plants' roots. A good Areca palm fertilizer will contain a blend of organic and inorganic nutrients.

If you've been struggling to get your indoor plant to grow, try repotting it. Repotting encourages faster growth and stops fertilizer buildup. The palm is sensitive, so be careful not to disturb its roots or it could end up with brown tips on its leaves. Make sure you remove any excess soil from your root ball before you start repotting. The new mixture should be the same depth as the previous one, and have plenty of drainage holes.

Fertilizers can be purchased in liquid or powder form. Make sure they are safe for foliar feedings. Slow-release fertilizers will give nutrients to your plants throughout the growing season. You can also spray micro-nutrients to get even faster growth. It is possible to use this fertilizer year-round, but it can cost quite a bit.


Ava palms can reach up to 30 feet in height and can be grown in all climates. Ava palms may be found in retail stores, parking lots, offices and other places. The graceful leaves add beauty and color to the home. In addition, you can use them as decorations. To create a dense display, you can plant many arecas in succession. They will make stunning decorations!

To ensure the best growth, your Areca palm must be exposed to high levels of humidity. This can be tricky in a home setting. Mist them only once or twice per day. You should mist them well without spraying the roots. The leaves should be kept moist but not soggy. If they dry out, they can develop brown spots. It is important to keep your Areca palms hydrated and to monitor the humidity in your home.

Boston Fern

If you are looking for ways to make indoor plants grow faster, this is the place to look. It can take indoor plants a while to discover how much moisture is needed. Their health is dependent on proper humidity. Plants can become root-bound without adequate water, and dry air can kill them. Feeding plants regularly is another way to encourage growth. Plants obtain nutrition through photosynthesis, but extra nutrients can help them grow faster. Regular fertilizer can help indoor plants thrive.

Artificial lights are the best way to increase indoor plant growth. Exposure to full-spectrum, bright LED light can help your plants grow stronger. But, bright light should be combined with sufficient humidity and water. Without enough water, plants can become dry and lose their shape. Combine bright light with high humidity for best results. Take care of your plants throughout the day.


Houseplants need to grow in nutrient rich soil. Use a larger pot than the one they normally use to grow in order to give them the nutrients that they require. This will help them spend more time growing roots rather than top growth. Be careful not to fertilize too frequently as this can cause adverse effects. Try using a combination of fertilizers. You can also mix some manure and grass clippings.

Other than using fertilizer, it is important to provide the right environment for plants. Plants will thrive in a moist environment. Low humidity can cause plants to develop health problems. They may lose their lower leaves. If this happens, it is time to move the plant to a humider location. An indoor climate that is conducive to growth can increase the rate of houseplant growth by up to three feet each year.

Fiddle Leafe Fig is a fast growing plant. This indoor plant is among the fastest to grow and has some unique nicknames. It can grow up to 6 feet tall and is so resilient it has been called "Devil's Ivy". It thrives in indirect light and should be kept near a window facing east or west.

Golden pothos

Pothos can be grown in many ways, starting with the soil and ending with the lighting. This plant needs clean water, fertilizer, bright indirect sun, and fertilizer. The ideal room temperature is 70-90degF (21-32degC). Make sure that your pothos plant is getting fresh water every couple of weeks, and add a few drops of fertilizer if needed. Dark-colored vases are best to avoid direct sunlight. To avoid water stagnation, make sure you change the water often.


In addition to watering, Pothos have a fast growth rate, up to 10 to 12 inches per month. The growth rate of pothos isn't too slow. They can grow as much as 18 inches per year if given the right conditions. It will take them longer to grow indoors so it's important that you care for them well. Pothos should continue growing longer vines each season to prevent stunted growth.

It is vital to give your Golden Pothos regular care. A quarter-strength, liquid fertilizer can be applied to your plant every other week. Liquid fertilizer is best used when the plant has begun to produce new foliage. The risk of burning your plant is reduced by watering. You can use a diluted liquid fertilizer solution as long as your plant has been well-watered.

You should ensure that your Golden Pothos plant has plenty of cuttings. Look for shiny, crisp green leaves that feel good to the touch. It's also a sign it's healthy if the stem is rigid and green. Golden Pothos don't like wet soil. You should buy a 6-inch pot if you wish to grow Golden Pothos indoors.

You can also grow a pothos by watering it. A cutting should measure six to twelve inches in length with two to three roots submerged in the water. You should see roots within one month of planting the potted cutting. In soil, potted plants grow faster than those that are grown in water. And they grow faster if you follow these simple tips. But always remember that you should follow the instructions on the package carefully.

Philodendron

There are many things you can do to encourage houseplants' rapid growth. As they age, plants will have different needs. When your plant reaches its end of the pot, it may need to be removed from the base or repotted. It is best to move your houseplant to another pot once it has outgrown its current one.


vegetable gardening 101 for beginners

First, consider your plant's type. Some plants need full sun while others prefer partial shading. Your philodendron needs some light during the day, but it does not like it in direct sunlight. You might choose a plant which doesn't require direct sunlight if your apartment has a lot of shade. Your philodendron will love your attention, regardless of whether it is in a sunny or shaded location.

Your house's humidity levels are important for your plants. Without proper humidity, they may show signs of malnutrition, such as dropping lower leaves. Poor drainage can cause root decay, which can reduce the plant's access to nutrients. Indoor plants can be grown faster if they are given adequate water. However, do not overwater them.

Choose a pot to fit your plant. The pot's size and material should be considered. Ideally, you should choose a pot that has good drainage and is proportional to the size of the plant's root mass. Once your plants have outgrown the pot they can be transplanted into a larger one. Remember that plants will not be able absorb enough moisture if they get too big. For hanging baskets, or for wall shelves, you can also use plastic pots.

Healthy growth requires proper drainage and watering. Avoid over-watering your plants. They can drown and not absorb essential nutrients. It's a good idea also to fertilize as often as necessary. You can also use fertilizers or humidifiers if you don't want to water your plants too often. To ensure that the soil is healthy and not contaminated with dirt, it's important to regularly check it.
