Build Your Own Indoor Garden | Top 6 Gardening Supplies to Grow Healthy Plants

Dream of having your own garden full of your favourite flowers or plants for thousands of times? How about building an indoor garden right now? Compared to outdoor gardens, indoor gardens are much easier to maintain and beneficial for us both physically and mentally through taking care of plants like growing, trimming, and watering.

Health & Benefits of Indoor Gardening

• Make people happy (Nobody denies this.)
• Build confidence and self-esteem by preparing, planting, nurturing and harvesting
• Improve body strength naturally.
• Alleviate the symptoms of stress, depression and anxiety at work and in life
• Some plants like peace lilies, snake plants and spider plants, are good at improving the indoor air by absorbing the harmful toxic pollutants, such as benzene and formaldehyde
• Brighten up the space and create a vibrant atmosphere

Preparation Before Gardening

Indoor gardening is suitable for different individuals, from young people with busy lifestyles to seniors who are already retired. Most houseplants are easier to care for and keep alive as their growing environment, temperature, humidity can be controlled. However, what do you need to prepare or consider before starting with your indoor gardening career?

• First things first, find out how much space you have for your plants. For example, if you own a big sunroom or a greenhouse, you can grow anything you like. Otherwise, you have to grow small greens or flowers.
• Decide what type of plants you’re going to grow: greens, herbs or flowers. If you want to start with something easy, try plants like cacti, succulents, or peace lilies.
• Pick up seeds, organic potting soil, and solid or liquid fertiliser at the local grocery store or online gardening shop.
• Select a proper spot for your house plants. Some plants only need a little indirect light while others like fruiting or flowering plants tend to the area with a sunny or south-facing window.
• Prepare regular or special gardening pots or containers with drainage holes, hanging baskets (if you like), watering cans.
• Understand the needs of specific plants you’re planning to grow and set a watering schedule around them for healthy growth.
