DISCLAIMER! I am not sponsored by any brands listed below (although I wish I was :P) These are products I genuinely love & use in my own household.

I would never recommend products I don’t genuinely love. Promise!
If your windows are drafty or the inside of the glass gets really cold, you can install insulating shrink film without loss of light. I have a few windows that are still single pane and where the frame leaks air like mad and it's made a huge difference to the plants in front of them!
Loved this! Answered all my questions! Thanks
Idk why you cleaning that big bird of paradise leaf was so cute to me lol.
💚🪴
Oxalis grow out doors even in the northeast. I have two outside.
I grabbed a few daylight LED bulbs earlier in the year. So, maybe those will do the trick.
Clean the windows!? UGGHHH!! lol
Hello Harli outstanding information this is my first winter have already moved my plant's close to the window and have been looking for pest daily so far so good have been looking at grow light's I appreciate the informative information stay blessed and happy winter indoor gardening
What about water plants? I have a bunch of plants/cuttings that are in water (some are specifically underwater). And I don’t ant them to freeze…. Any tips?
I wish i had never planted my inga edulis outdoors during the winter, any advice on how i can revive my tree?
Thanks for sharing, is it ok to water plants at night in winter?
Great video, thanks so much for all this great info! Just to clarify, we shouldn't trim dead growth in the winter? My thought process was that trimming dead or waning growth can help the plant so that it's not trying to divert energy to areas that aren't able to be sustained, but I could totally be off with this. Thanks so much! <3

If you're in the Midwest this is the Facebook group you need to be in. Please go join so I have more people to trade with!
Who else is here because all their many many plants are all very upset this winter
I live in Boston, in an apartment where I make my window sills my little green heaven. I have a potted mint and one rosemary and they are sadly in bad shape. I will put in practice all of these recommendations and try to survive the winter months. Thank you so much; I love your channel! <3
This video is so informative! Love it. Stuff I never even thought of. 👍🏼
Thank you so much for this video Harli and great tips!! I had to repot my Maidenhair fern and African Violets because I got them in the Summer and didn't repot them back then. But they were dying back and even with watering less and draining excess water, the roots were looking soggy. They're looking happier now and glad I can fertilize my Pothos lightly because it's the main one continually growing! And what do you think about Epsom salts watering in the Winter?
Great Video ! Thanks
Hi there. Which bulbs/plant lights did you say you preferred?
I am a new fan and I adore your videos!
My house was built in 1919 and it's so drafty and my plants live right by my wall I don't think they like living by a freezing wall
I have hermit crabs they are way easier to take care of than all my plants
Sometimes I breath directly on my plants so they can have some carbon dioxide to eat
My snake plant is getting droopy, I had it in my window that gets freezing. My cactus is the only plant surviving lol
I don’t see where you linked your favorite heat mat? Thanks for all the tips!! A humidity tent helps A LOT too!!
Hi, I have a spray water bottle and I am spraying my indoor plants often, it seems they like it, I brought them in about a month ago because of the cold! However, we are having nice days like today is on 70s and house heater is on now, I do see that soil on top is dry and water just little bit, I feel I am on them more often but I am having problems with gnats and I do know what to do, I bought a candle that is mosquito repellant but it works for a while only. They seem that they are meeting and when water spray gets to them they fly!
It makes me very mad as I feel gnats got to one of my Christmas cactus, the bottom of the plant found like cooked and smelly bad!
I keep rotating them like you said, but I wish I know what to do with these flying bugs. I do not keep garbage indoors or anything that attracts these gnats I mentioned to you. It is hard job as well I moved from bay area California to Southern Indiana and brought my garden with me. Any suggestions are appreciated thx
During the cold season how often you humidify your indoor plants? I live in California. Do I use cold or heat? What humidity temperature should I set too?
Can you link the heat matt please?
