Hello 👋 plant friends and #TheWateringHole crew! It’s Thursday afternoon and I’m taking a watering break 💦 🪴! I know we’re supposed to water early but that’s just not always possible 🤪 Besides I got distracted admiring each of the 🌱🌱🌱🌱 on the schedule 👀. This snake plant 🐍 🪴 is one of my earliest on Greg. I got him November 2021 and joined Greg January 2022 🗓️ 😮. Doesn’t seem that long ago!!! Anyway last year he gave me a scare 😬 tipping to one side, I checked his roots to discover there were hardly any!! I’d been gleefully bottom watering 🥣 💧 thinking the water was wicking up but that wasn’t it. His roots were dry, soil at bottom was wet, and I was faced with a dying plant. Down potted way down, probably a good 2” smaller pot, with fresh soil and stakes for support. Gave him a grow light. Here are his roots today 😊 🎉
🪴 So when did you join Greg? And is there a plant you’re particularly proud of or happy with?? #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #SucculentLove #SnakePlant #TheWateringHole #brunchataudreys

Great save @MariansOasis !!! Those roots are looking amazing now, and that’s a good reminder that repotting doesn’t always have to go 🆙 if it doesn’t make sense. I was late watering today too - first day with my boss back this week and I was cooked!! 😪 Can’t believe summer is flying past us! I think I joined Greg a little over a year ago now. I’ve been fawning over this new Lamoon. She grows like a weed and keeps popping new blooms. Wish I could take credit, but I’ve only had her a few weeks now.
@Devsleafypals are you on the list? I don’t think you are, do you want to be? List for #TheWateringHole posts is what I mean 📋
@DreamMachine @princesspitstop @RefinedSandwort @Devsleafypals please add Dev to the Watering Hole list. And @Devsleafypals if you haven’t already *join* the group. 😊
I’m recently became what I’d call a real plant person. I’ve always had an issue with overwatering then of course I’ve underwatered. Pothos was my only thriving plants. I’ve done a lot of research into light, water and soil mixtures and have had recent success expanding my collection. I only started using Greg this month I think my Jades are my favorite
@StaunchPuriri22 oh the overwater that leads to the fearful underwater syndrome! 😆 I’m a recovering ‘over waterer ➡️ underwatering’ plant parent! Out of my underwatering phase for several months now. My plants are once again doing a happy dance 💃 🪩 🕺 of growing 🌱 👍 😮💨
Welcome to Greg! Youll be tempted everywhere to expand your collection more! 💸 🪴 💰 Laughing but serious too! You’ll see so many beautiful plants and helpful advice on Greg. It’s good you enjoy researching 🔬 There’s a lot of misinformation on the web so be aware. I like your charts but I take exception to the (almost) Zero Light one. Yes those plants will exist in low light but they will slowly die of starvation. Sun is food for plants and without it they will not thrive. ☀️ 🪴
