Starter Plants: Care & Maintenance Tips

Growing good starter plants isn’t as difficult as it may seem at first. Follow these simple plant starter tips to help your new plants grow and flourish.

• Light: Most indoor starter plants require moderately bright light. It’s important to remember that a starter plant’s foliage and roots are still delicate. So, exposing it to extremely low light or hot, direct sun can be harmful. If you see a plant growing leggy or leaning towards the light source, move it to a slightly brighter location.
• Watering and Humidity: Water carefully, according to each variety’s needs, but ensure the soil is only slightly moist before repeated watering. Overwatering your young plants can lead to root rot. Keep in mind that some tropical plants may require higher humidity to flourish, and it’s often necessary to mist your plants or place them on a pebble-filled tray to increase humidity indoors.  
• Temperature: Keep your starter plants in stable temperatures, giving them a comfortable environment for growth. Avoid placing them in spaces with cold drafts or near ventilation shafts.
• Fertilizing: Be careful when feeding starter plants, as overfeeding can cause more harm than good, overtaxing the young plant’s developing root system.
• Pruning and Repotting: Since starter plants are smaller than mature plants, you may not need to prune for a while; the same goes for repotting and soil refreshing. Remove damaged or dead leaves if needed.
