Light and temperature

Plants always seek the light, and the rays of the sun is much preferable to artificial lights. The need may be expressed in different degrees, but it is always there. All plants of the planet depending on the relationship to the light is divided into three groups. First – gelidity, they are able to bear only a faint shading. For example, the well-known cacti and succulents. Second – sciatica simply a small amount of sun, and the development of the shadow runs sometimes even better than on the shined sites (conifers, ferns). The third group is intermediate – optional galofity, that is, shade-tolerant plants. They are best developed in normal light, but can withstand a little shade.

Humidity

The Care of house plants in the home is associated with providing a microclimate as close as possible to the natural environment of growth, and one major factor-humidity. The main problem in homes with Central heating may become too dry. For some types – ideal (cacti), and for tropical plants the situation will have to be corrected. Regular spraying should be settled or rain water in the evening. Never leave the sheets wet at night, because it promotes the active spread and development of fungal diseases. For small moisture-loving plants alternatively pots can offer a small aquarium that is easy to create a special microclimate.

Watering plant

Our homes and apartments have become home to plants of tropical rain forests, hot deserts, marshes, zones with a moderate moisture, respectively, and watering needs vary depending on species. So succulents and cacti are good enough will take a forced drought, and for azaleas or Anthurium, for example, drying clod of earth disastrous. In this regard, care in the home for houseplants should be based on the basic knowledge of their physiology and characteristics. In the natural environment, the source of moisture may be different. In most cases the plants receive in the form of rain. Therefore, for irrigation, spraying ideally need soft water (rain, melt), if its not use tap water, but only to defend.

Fertilization

In most cases, care in the home for houseplants involves periodic introduction of complex mineral and/or organic fertilizers. Now do not need “reinvent the wheel" and suffer with dosages. Floral shops offer a large range of products with a balanced content of trace elements, mineral salts, which are necessary for normal growth and flowering plants. Most popular organic fertilizer is “Ideal”, which is produced on the basis of vermicompost. It containsnatural growth stimulants and serves as the basis for creation of liquid supplements for certain groups of plants: “White”, “rose”, “Cactus", etc. Irrigation this fertilizer should be carried out periodically. Meanwhile, home care for house plants can be more rare. So, Pokon drug in the pellets has a long-lasting effect. Enough to make 1 teaspoon into the soil (pot diameter 15 cm) - and the dressing can be forgotten in six months. The granules will dissolve gradually, providing the plant with all the necessary elements.

Pots, planters, containers

care of indoor plants at home

On three listed species, it is customary to divide all containers for growing plants indoors. Pots feature drainage holes (one or more) at the bottom, so the set of them should definitely pick up the pallet. To create use plastic or ceramics. Each type has its advantages and disadvantages. Clay used for a long time and has a wonderful aesthetic quality. Pots are produced from sustainable, well evaporating excess moisture and absorbing from the soil the mineral salts. Plastic counterparts are more affordable, light-grown plants in them can less water. However, overheating the roots in a pot exposed to all plants. Orchid care in the home which has its own characteristics, for example, prefers transparent pots. In this case, plastic is irreplaceable.

Just putting all the factors together, you can pick the perfect indoor plant that will please the eye and to require the minimum maintenance.
