I've said it once and I'll say it again - succulents ae BAD houseplants! I really mean that. I am speaking in broad terms here but take heart in knowing that just because you've "killed a succulent" doesn't mean you are doomed to be a plant killer! It just means that a succulent, or that particular succulent, wasn't a good ft for you or the growing conditions your home provides. In this episode I'll cover: What makes a plant 'succulent' Why succulents aren't very good houseplants (so you can breath a sigh of relief!) How to care for succulents the RIGHT way How to repot a succulent How to find a houseplant that IS right for you: https://dustyhegge.com/quiz Follow on Instagram: https://instagram.com/growwellpodcast

So you know grow lights can help your houseplants grow but do you know how they work? And did you know that not all "grow lights" are created equally? Just because a light says that it's a grow light doesn't necessarily mean it will facilitate your houseplants in growing well. This is why I've brought the founders of Soltech Solutions onto the show to dive DEEP into grow lights. This conversation is such a rich one and I know you're going to enjoy it! I personally ADORE my aspect light from Soltech Solutions and I can't recommend them highly enough!

If you don't have a good houseplant routine your houseplants will probably die. Just sayin'. So, let's create a good routine together! I'm going to share with you what needs to be in your houseplant care routine (NOT a schedule, this is a very important distinction!) and give you an example of my houseplant routine. // FREE Houseplant Course: https://www.houseplantacademy.com //  SHOW NOTES: https://dustyhegge.com/podcast/051 (With direct links to ALL episodes mentioned within this episode.)

Self-care. What a trendy word. Don’t get me wrong, I am grateful for parts of it! But like an overgrown garden, I think we’ve all gotten a little carried away and there is some weeding that needs to be done. What I believe started as a very important message of “You are allowed to have fun, to eat good food, to invest personal growth, in your hobbies, and the little things that make you so happy has turned into a frighteningly deceptive half-truth. One that seems shiny and lovely and wonderful, but ends up leaving us feeling more frustrated and empty than we began.

Poinsettias are the number one potted plant sold in the US with over $250 million made annually. 80% of the people who purchase them are women and I would wager to guess that 99% of those poinsettias are tossed in the trash come February (that statistic is 100% made up based on my own personal experience…...of throwing them away every year!) Because they are difficult to grow indoors! I have heard people tell me they are easy and some people tell me they are difficult. After spending the better part of the day learning about them I am gonna go with the later - not so easy, but SO fun and beautiful for a season! We’ll dive into care and some anatomy (spoiler: they “flower” isn’t really a flower!) ad the incredible history behind these beloved Christmas plants.
