Hello World! Welcome Friends! Did you know that plants can reduce stress, depression, and anxiety? Houseplants are good for your mental health, they can increase creativity, and they can help with your memory.
When most people move into an apartment, they give up the idea of having a garden because they don’t have any outdoor space. The reality is that you can have a garden inside your apartment.
Do you want to learn more about growing an apartment garden? If so, keep reading to learn everything you need to know about having a garden in an apartment.
Consider Your Space
Before you grow your apartment garden, you need to think about your space. Do you want to plant large houseplants, or place a tiny herb garden in your kitchen window?
Even if you only have a small space, you can still plant a small garden. In addition to considering space, you also should think about sunlight.
Ideally, you can plant your garden in a space with lots of sunlight. How much sunlight your garden gets will determine what type of plants you can grow. For some plants, artificial light may work as a substitute for sunlight.

Choose Plants
Once you understand your apartment space, you can choose the right plants. Do you want to grow flowers, herbs, vegetables, or fruit?
When choosing plants, you need to consider your space, temperature, and humidity levels. If you have pets, keep in mind that many plants are toxic for dogs and cats.
Make sure you do your research and choose a plant that is safe in case your pets decide to eat it. Some of the best plants for an apartment garden include avocados, basil, mint, tomatoes, and succulents. You could also check out microgreens. Microgreens or sprouting seeds are simple to grow, take up little space, and will be ready to eat in just 3-6 days. They are also nutritionally dense, so planting them in your home means you can reap the health benefits of sprouting seeds without committing to a plant that is difficult to keep alive.
Create a Care Schedule
After choosing the perfect plants for your indoor garden, you can create a schedule to take care of them. Plants need regular watering, soil changes, and new pots.
To create a care schedule, you will need to research each plant’s needs. While some plants will need watering every day, others will only need water once a month.
Some plants are low-maintenance, while others are a lot more work. Once you know your plant’s needs, write out a schedule so that you don’t forget to take care of them.
You can get creative and leave a note on your refrigerator, set reminders on your phone, or get a corkboard with care instructions for each plant.
