Chronicling my mad descent into all things houseplants


Houseplantygoodness

I’m thinking of filming a very chatty Repot With Me this weekend 🪴😂

Basically me repotting a few plants, chatting nonsense and answering some of your questions along the way.

So… what do you want to ask me? 👀

Plant questions, collecting, YouTube, unpopular opinions, random stuff… whatever you fancy 😂

Drop your questions below and I’ll try to answer as many as I can while I repot! 👇🌿

Quick one for anyone who uses Photone 💡🌿

You guys have probably seen me using Photone on the channel before to check the light levels around my plants and grow lights.

They actually got in touch with me the other day and told me they're giving away 3 months of Photone Pro for free for National Indoor Plant Week, so I thought I'd share it because I know quite a few of you use it too 😅

If you want to give it a go, you can get Photone here:
growlightmeter.com/download/?ref=houseplanty

Then use the code INDOORPLANTS2026 to get the 3 months of Pro free. The code works until 27 September.

BUT! One thing I wanted to make really clear before any of you use it 😂, redeeming the offer starts a monthly Pro subscription, so after the three free months it will automatically start charging you unless you cancel it.

I checked this with Photone before sharing it. You can redeem the offer and then cancel the subscription straight away, and you'll still keep Pro for the full three free months. 👍

The instructions for Android and iPhone are on the image because they're slightly different.

With the light levels disappearing again as we head into autumn/winter, I thought this might be useful for some of you! 🌿

I'm trying Pro myself as well, so we'll see what extra nerdy light information I can get out of it 🤓😂

Just so you know: the link above is now my Photone affiliate link, so if you install Photone through it and eventually buy something from them, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. 💚

Which supposedly “EASY” houseplant has humbled you the most? 😂🌿

Hey everyone! 😊

Just a little update because I missed yesterday's upload, and I didn't want to disappear without saying anything.

The last couple of weeks have been a bit chaotic getting everything ready before I head off on holiday from 1st to 14th July. On top of that, we've been having a bit of a heatwave here in the UK, and my conservatory has been sitting at 37 to 38°C with around 70% humidity most days. Safe to say it's not the easiest place to film right now! 😅 Between that and spending several hours a day watering 600+ very thirsty plants, I've simply run out of time to film as much as I'd hoped.

The good news is there will still be a new video this Sunday, and then I'll be posting one video each Sunday while I'm away. It's not quite the schedule I'd planned, but I'd rather bring you videos I'm happy with than rush them out.

Thank you, as always, for being such an understanding and supportive bunch. It genuinely means a lot. 💚

I'll see you all on Sunday! 🌿

Bit of a hectic week over here, and it’s also my birthday on Saturday, I turn 42 🎉

I’ve finished editing one video, but I realistically don’t think I’m going to manage two uploads this week like usual, sorry about that!

So, quick question…

Your worst plant mistake?

I just wanted to say a genuine thank you to all of you for the kind comments on the last video. It really didn’t go unnoticed, and I appreciate it more than you probably realise ❤️

On a more planty note… I’ve started a little experiment, that I mentioned in a recent video 👀
Two Calathea (Goeppertia) roseopicta ‘Crimson’ in the exact same spot, one in the original soil mix, the other in straight orchid bark. Let’s see if we can break a few “rules” and get away with it.

And for a bit of irony… the Philodendron esmeraldense (yes, that one 😅) is now blooming. Two blooms, one open and one on the way. Turns out it’s not doing too badly after all.

Quick heads up as well, I’m on jury service for the next two weeks. Videos will still be going up and I’ll still be replying to comments, just might be a bit slower than usual as I’ll be juggling that with work in the evenings.

Appreciate you all 💚

Hello 2026.

Wishing you a calm start to the year, no big resolutions required, just a little space to breathe.
May your plants grow slowly, your expectations be kind, and nothing suddenly decide to be dramatic for no reason 😅

I’m really grateful for this community, quietly pottering along together.
What are your plants doing right now, resting, thriving, or pretending not to exist? 💚

🎄🌿
Whether today is a big celebration, a quiet one, or just… a normal Thursday with snacks, I hope it’s a gentle one for you.

Wishing you calm moments, good food, and houseplants that don’t suddenly choose today to be dramatic 😅

No pressure, no to-do lists. Just a little pause.
Hope you’re doing okay, wherever you are 💚
What’s one plant you’ve glanced at today and thought, “yeah… you’ll survive” 👀🌱

Hey friends, just a little heads up that I’m filming the December report this weekend. This one is always my slower, more chilled check in before everything turns into holiday chaos.

If there’s anything you want me to talk about, any questions you’ve been sitting on, or even just random thoughts you want thrown into the mix, drop them below. I like hearing what’s on your mind this time of year.

I think these end of year chats help all of us catch our breath a bit, so feel free to share whatever you’re curious about. Looking forward to it.
