Summary: Bringing your houseplants indoors when the weather gets colder is really important and there are a few steps you should be doing to ensure that your beloved houseplants stay healthy. I’ll cover: How to prepare your home How to prevent and fight houseplant pests How to acclimate your houseplants indoors What behavior to expect from your houseplant Before I dive into how to acclimate your houseplant indoors after summer I have something SO exciting to share with you! On the day of this recording (September 7th, 2019) I have JUST opened the doors to a three-day houseplant challenge to help you better understand your houseplant and create a routine that ACTUALLY works for both you! (And by both I mean you and your houseplant!) The challenge begins on September 23rd, but you can join now! When you do you’ll get immediate access to the closed challenge Facebook group, a bonus training before the challenge begins, and some other great tips and resources to help you better understand your houseplants - and therefore enjoy them SO much more! And guess what. It’s 100% free! You can join the challenge HERE. There will be replays available, bonus content, AND even a bonus day with a live repotting and Q&A session! If you are catching this after the challenge ends (October 4th, 2019) I plan on making this challenge into an evergreen challenge (and keeping it FREE!) so you can still learn all about how to better understand your houseplant and create a houseplant care routine that you actually enjoy AND works for both of you! (i.e. keeps your houseplants alive) Which is why I have cleverly titled the challenge: Stop Killing Your Houseplants Challenge! Once you enroll can you do me a HUGE favor? I am trying to reach a really big goal of getting 500 members in the free challenge. Can you help me spread the word and invite your friends? I would be so grateful! You guys have been so supportive and I know if we work together we can build and nurture a houseplant community dedicated to growing well! I can’t wait! How to transition your houseplants back indoors: The reason your houseplant needs to be acclimated (which simply means to become accustomed to a new climate or to new conditions) is because the growing conditions within your home are drastically different than the growing conditions outdoors. The biggest difference is in the amount of light your plant will receive. For full show notes: http://dustyhegge.com/podcast/035
