Weeks 1–2 · Light
What each window actually delivers, hour by hour.
Four programs of 4 to 10 weeks, worked on your rooms, your light and your own plants.
We map the light in each of your rooms — direction, distance from the window, obstructions — and place your plants against it. Then watering: checking weight and soil rather than following a schedule, and choosing pots and mixes that forgive mistakes.
What each window actually delivers, hour by hour.
Right plant, right spot, honestly assessed.
Weight, drainage and mixes that suit you.
What each pattern of yellowing means.
Identifying gnats, mites, mealybugs and scale.
Isolation, cleaning and treatments used correctly.
Send photographs — whole plant, close-up of the damage, and the soil surface. Yellow lower leaves, crispy edges and sudden drooping each mean different things. We identify pests properly and treat them with the least aggressive thing that works, following label directions.
Repotting is done too often and at the wrong time by most people. We cover the signs that it's genuinely needed, how to check roots, pot sizing, and then propagation — water, soil and division — so your collection grows without spending anything.
Roots, drainage and the right pot size.
Handling roots and settling a plant afterwards.
Cuttings, nodes, water and soil.
Less light, less water, no feeding.
Humidity, radiators and whether a lamp is worth it.
Most plant deaths happen between November and March, when light drops and radiators dry the air. We adjust watering, humidity and feeding for the season, and cover grow lights honestly — which ones help, and where they're unnecessary.
Twenty minutes, free, on the plant, the window and what to change.
