Elle Beadle on Instagram: "No more muddy puddles 🙌🏻 I did a little research about this online and asked friends for their thoughts too before decided to combine 4 preventative suggestions together in the hope of finding 1 fool proof method… and it actually works! Here’s my ‘tried and tested’ 4 step combo which I put to the test last year, we are now 12months in with NO muddy puddles on my patio: 1 - Brown coconut coir hanging basket liners These are a natural fiber made from the husk of ripe coconuts, they are really absorbent and act as soil filter 2 - Add stones This helps to stop the soil escaping and keeps the basket in place. By doing a double layer this combination (1&2 repeated twice) it still allows the water to drain but does the best possible job of trapping the soil 🙌🏻
Sara McDaniel on Instagram: "It’s easier than you think to force a second bloom from your crêpe myrtle. Here’s what you need to know. Comment LINK for the source to my pole trimmer. 🌸AFTER your crêpe myrtle blooms, it will begin to develop these little round, hard, seed pods. They are very heavy and you’ll notice your limbs begin to droop. 🌸 Once your tree is mostly finished blooming, go through and snip off these little seed pods. You’ll definitely need a good pole hopper. Comment LINK and I’ll send you the source for mine. 🌸 It wouldn’t hurt afterwards to give it a good dose of @miraclegro Bloom Booster. 🌸Then, within about 2 to 4 weeks you’ll notice little blooms starting to emerge and your crêpe myrtle will be blooming into September. I have been doing this for years and year

MonstroFarm on Instagram: "This tiny Jade plant has been with me for about 6 months and it was time to prune it so it could branch out and I could make more propagations from it. Here’s how I did it. ✂️ I started by removing each stem with clean pruners. Making sure to leave at least one leaf on each stem left on the plant. Then I removed the leaves towards the bottom of the stem and let them sit for 48 hours to form a callous. I don’t do this for all leaf props but for Jade I do. 🪨I used a potting mix that had peat, coir and sand that would provide adequate drainage, and have just the right amount of water holding capacity. 🪴Then I filled a tray with the propagation mix and gently compacted it. 🌱 And next I laid each leaf with the top-side up on the mix. 💦 To water my suc

MonstroFarm on Instagram: "Here’s how I leaf propagate a ZZ in soil. 🪨 Use a 1/3 mix consisting of coir, peat and perlite. The coir and peat help provide water holding capacity to the mix and the perlite provides drainage and aeration. 🌱Fill pot with soil, slightly compact the soil. ✂️ Always disinfect your pruners. I use 3% hydrogen peroxide. ⏰ Allow the leaves to dry and callous over for 48 hours 🪴 Open a hole with a dowel or pencil and place the leaf in the soil 💡Place under a grow light or on a windowsill MonstroFarm Tip 💦 Allow the layer of soil that the leaves are sitting in to dry out completely before watering again"
