Houseplants

The spore containing sori of a fern are usually found on the underside of their leaves. In water ferns the spores are produced inside the sporocarps. (Novanet/Gradpoint, On the underside of a fern frond.)

It is generally not recommended to water orchids with tap water, as they are sensitive to minerals and chemicals found in tap water. It is better to use rainwater, distilled water, or water that has been allowed to sit out for 24 hours to let any chlorine or fluoride evaporate before watering your orchids.

African violet is a flowering plant that can bloom indoors year-round with proper care. It thrives in bright, indirect light and moderate temperatures. The plant requires regular watering and well-draining soil to keep it healthy and colorful.

You'll have to put in a few watering bulbs for your tomato plant.

I have 14 water bulbs for almost all my houseplants and they work good. My plant that never wanted to grow started growing so fast. I have to refill the small watering bulbs every 5-6 day and the big watering bulbs every 4-5 day.

Water vapour appears on the wall of the glass jar because the plant releases moisture through transpiration. When the jar is placed over the plant, the moisture released by the plant accumulates inside the jar and condenses on the cooler surface of the glass due to the temperature difference, forming water droplets or vapour.

If it is not totally dessicated and dead, what I would do is get a small bottle (2 oz. or 4 oz.) of a product called superThrive at a local garden center or nursery . Not expensive, maybe $7. u.s. for the smaller size. Depending on the size of the fern, put it in a container/bucket and put enough water in the bucket to cover the roots and some of the foliage. If necessary, put a weight of some kind on top of the plant to hold it down in the water. Then put 1/2 teaspoon of superThrive in the water, and mix it thoroughly. (if you like, you can put the superThrive in the water first, then apply to the fern). A small amount, a drop or two only, of a dish soap like Dawn will help the water and the superThrive get into the plant's leaves and roots.

Let it soak for 24-48 hours, then plant it and keep it in a cool area, no direct sunlight but bright light. If it is going to survive, you will see new leaves emerging from the base within a month or so, perhaps sooner. When you do, carefully cut out all old, dead leaves down to the base. Depending on the condition of the fern to begin with, this can be done before the treatment is applied.

superThrive is a plant medicine-enhancer-invigorator, not a fertilizer. Do not fertilize this plant or any plant under stress. Only after it is showing new growth, would I apply a mild (1/2 strength) dose of fertilizer along with another application of superThrive in the water for the plant, on the leaves and the roots too.

I have saved many plants, large and small, using this technique. Good luck! :o)

There are 1000 ml in 1 liter, so the watering can holds 4200 ml. Each plant requires 310 ml of water, therefore, 4200 ml / 310 ml = 13.5 plants. Since we cannot water a fraction of a plant, you can water 13 plants without refilling the watering can.

It probably isn't getting too much water. You should water your plants everyday, but only ONCE a day. Try to water it a reasonable amount. That means you should pour the water over the seed, and until it gets a little wet in that area. But if it rains, you can forget about watering your plants depending on how heavy the rain is. If it is light, I think it'll be fine if it hasn't sprouted yet. But if it's light and the tree is completely grown, you should certainly water moor. Try getting near the roots when it sprouts. It'll help the plant grow. It may take a while, like 100 days to plant some pumpkins, or years to plant some forest trees, you never know. And always try planting your plants in sunlight. It will very likely grow better in sunlight than lamp light.

Well, this is just a guess, but their roots are implanted into the ground while their flowers are floating on the water surface. Their stem has to stretch from the ground to the flower. So if the water moves, their stem may snap or their roots may be detached from the ground ( a bit too serious, maybe? ) Anyway, I'm not very sure. Maybe you can try wikipedia?

Hope I helped, at the very least! :)

Tap water typically does not contain significant amounts of vitamins. Vitamins are organic compounds that are usually not present in natural water sources unless supplemented or fortified by the manufacturer. It is always best to rely on food sources or supplements for adequate vitamin intake.

A house plant with backward turned petals is likely a variety of orchid, such as the Miltonia orchid. These orchids have distinct flowers with petals that curve backward, giving them a unique and elegant appearance. Their beautiful blooms make them a popular choice for indoor gardening.

Some house plants that start with the letter "A" are Aloe vera, Aglaonema, and Anthurium.

We did this experiment and honestly didn't notice much of a difference in the leaves. I think what is supposed to happen is that the leaf should start to lose it's green color and wilt because it cannot photosynthesize.

Yes, terminal buds are typically found at the tip of a winter twig on a deciduous tree. These buds contain the embryonic tissue for new growth and are responsible for the elongation of the twig in the following growing season.

The primary function of plant leaves is photosynthesis, which is the process where plants convert sunlight into energy. Leaves also help with transpiration, where they release excess water vapor and regulate gas exchange with the atmosphere. Additionally, leaves can provide structural support and store nutrients for the plant.

Mangroves are trees that are adapted to grow in saltwater environments. They can be found in coastal areas with brackish water and fluctuating tides. Mangroves have specialized roots that can filter out salt and thrive in these challenging conditions.

Plants transfer water in the water cycle through a process called transpiration, where water evaporates from the leaves and stems. This water vapor then condenses and forms clouds, leading to precipitation.

Sepals protect the petals in a bud. Sepals are modified leaves found at the base of flowers and they enclose and protect the developing flower bud.

Amaryllis. Often sold at Christmas time, it's an easy to grow flower, gets very tall (3 ft!), and is a blast for kids to grow (it seems to grow a half inch a day, so it's a hit with the impatient set!).

Yes, rubber trees are popular houseplants as they are easy to care for and can thrive in indoor conditions. They require bright, indirect light and regular watering, allowing them to grow into a striking and attractive addition to any indoor space.

Depending on the type of plant, it either won't care or it will die.

More plants die from over-watering than from under-watering.

If you don't know what type of pot plant you have, ask someone who knows about plants; then you can ask (or search online) for information about caring for your plant.

To promote more normal growth in house plants in a windowless room with only fluorescent lights, you can try rotating the plants regularly to ensure even light exposure, supplementing with a grow light specifically designed for plants, trimming back leggy growth to encourage bushier growth, and providing appropriate nutrients through fertilizer. Additionally, consider moving the plants to a room with natural light if possible.

A potted plant can be considered a microecosystem. It contains various living organisms such as the plant, soil bacteria, and other microorganisms. These organisms interact with each other and the environment within the confines of the pot.

Yes, philodendrons can be harmful to pets if ingested. They contain calcium oxalate crystals that can cause irritation and swelling in the mouth, throat, and stomach of pets. It's best to keep philodendrons out of reach of pets to prevent accidental ingestion.
