MD's Posh Plant Care Tips

Did you adopt one of my Posh Plant babies? THANK YOU! I'm so glad you did. I hope they bring you  a bit of joy, color, and happiness. So how does one get their plant off to a healthy start you might ask? Read on.  




Bolivian Turtle 🐢 

Care: Bolivian Turtle loves moist soil (but not soggy). Once the pot begins to feel light when lifted, it's time for another water.
Light: The Bolivian Turtle Vine likes bright, indirect light and you should avoid direct sun, especially in the summer. A North or East facing windowsill is ideal.

Temperatures: This plant prefers it on the cooler side - somewhere between 50° to 68° F and an average amount of humidity.

Feeding: Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer to your turtle vine once every month during growing season. 



Tri-Color Bolivian Jew (Callisia Repens Variegated) 

Care: Water thoroughly whenever the top few inches of soil start to dry. Don't let the plant sit in excess water that collects in the saucer. 
Light: It prefers bright light and moderately dry soil. 
Temperatures: Performs best at temperatures ranging from 65°F to 75°F
Feeding: When it is actively growing, give it monthly applications of balanced fertilizer to keep it vigorous. 





Blushing Bride Tradescantia

Care: Water when top inch of soil is dry, don’t over water. Blushing Bride thrives in a well drained soil.
Light: Thrives in direct or indirect light.
Temperatures: Tradescantia thrive in temperatures between 60°F and 80°F, so they do well in typical indoor temperatures. 
Feeding: Feed your plant monthly with a half-strength liquid fertilizer.



Spider Plant

Care: Spider plants like even moisture; not too dry or too wet.

Light: Keep plants in bright to moderate indirect sunlight. 

Ideal Temperatures: Spider plants like temps between 55°F and 80°F 

Feeding: Fertilize up to twice a month in the spring and summer, avoid over fertilization.

QR Codes and Home Storage Solutions

Image
  I am so excited! After creating and using QR codes for many things from business catalog links to flipbooks I finally decided to order some pre printed Totescan QR code stickers from Amazon. This product comes 45 unique codes to a set and has an app to make all the work of documenting those storage containers a breeze... at least that is my hope. I have been thinking about organizing my attic storage using QR code identifiers for quite some time but I end up moving on to another pressing project all because I dislike creating the database to keep the information all together. Totescan has a solution with an app, easy to order stickers and even the ability to print my own stickers at home if I prefer. So I jumped in and ordered my stickers with a promise from Amazon to deliver today! Today...WOW! Knocking down barriers to my procrastination over database via the app and today delivery from Amazon...perfect! Now on to Youtube to watch the how-to video !
