Surviving rainy days with my plants 🌦️
For the last month or more we have had about 9 days of rain and one day of sun in every 10 day forecast. It's been miserable for everyone. 🌦️
I've been slacking on my plant chores because between the high humidity and no sun I am snoozing constantly. Knock on wood I still have new growth (thank you grow lights) and no one seems to be in poor health.
Today I told myself instead of glancing at my plants to look for drooping, I'd check all their soil and snooze everyone that needed it. I went from about 149 needing water to 64 after snoozing, and now only 13. 🌿
This also led to family bath time and I actually sat down and used leaf cleaner to ensure pests stay away. I got about 20 of my most pest prone, dust prone plants cleaned up. 🛁
Feeling like a responsible plant parent today 🙂. It was quite necessary since we are potty training my youngest and my husband is back to work tomorrow so my plants will get zero attention for a while.
Phew, time to rest. 😴

Yours look great! I lost a few succulents to this heat and I’m re-potting and moving my plants -been at it for days - as I can. I’ll be up late since it’s July 4th, moving them out of direct sun. I had to water all of them today so I get the accomplished plant parent vibe. You’ve done amazing so keep up the good work!
Great job they look amazing
