Finding light for Fingertips in your home
a window
Fingertips love being close to bright, sunny windows 😎.
Place it less than 1ft from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.

Select your region to see how the current weather in your area affects the placement of Fingertips in your home 🏡.
How to fertilize Fingertips
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Fingertips after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Marilyn Died :( For context, I live at my Dad's every other week during summer. I got a gorgeous bluff lettuce, and I named her Marilyn, and she was doing so well!!! She was absolutely THRIVING!! But one week, I came back from my mom's house, and the top half of her leaves were shriveled and BLACK. The lower half was almost see-through and really brown. I don't know what killed her, and I really want to know the cause so I can keep Walt and Hector safe :( Rip Marilyn, I miss you

Watering multiple plants… I made a terrarium today and have three succulents in it. If Greg tells me to water each 1/8 cup, do I water 3/8 cups to the whole thing? I also have three succulents in a small pot. Same question. You can see the little pot three plants in the photo. #plantsmakemehappy
