 Moving Your indoors Plants Outdoors 



Moving indoors plants outdoors can be a great way to give your plants a new environment and allow them to thrive in fresh air and natural sunlight. However, there are few things to consider before making the move.


Gradually acclimate your plants

Plants that have been growing indoors are not accustomed to the harsh conditions of the outdoors. It is important to gradually acclimate them to the new environment. Start by placing them outside in a shaded area for a few hours each day and gradually increase the amount of time they spend outside over a period of several weeks. This will allow them to adjust to the new light, temperature, and humidity conditions slowly.



Plants needs a vacation too

 Moving indoor plants outdoors can be a great way to give your plants a new lease on life. By gradually acclimating them to their new environment, choosing the right location, keeping an eye on watering, protecting them from pests, and being prepared for changes in temperature, you can help your plant thrive in their new home. 



1.    Gradually acclimate your plants. Plants that have been grown indoors are not accustomed to the harsh conditions of the outdoors. It is important to gradually acclimate them to the new environment. Start by placing them outside in a shaded area for a few hours each day and gradually increase the amount of time they spend outside over a period of several weeks. This will allow them to adjust to the new light, temperature, and humidity conditions slowly.
2.    Choose the right location Once your plants have been acclimated, choose the right location for them to thrive. Look for a spot that receives the appropriate amount of sunlight for your plant’s specific needs. Some plants prefer full sun, while others thrive in partial shade. Make sure the location has good drainage and is protected from harsh winds.
3.    Keep an eye on watering Plants that are moved outdoors will require more water than they did indoors. Keep a close eye on the soil and water your plants when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. It is also important to make sure that the soil has good drainage and that excess water can drain away from the plant.
4.    Protect your plants from pests Outdoor plants are more susceptible to pests than indoor plants. Keep a close eye on your plants for any signs of insect infestations, such as whiteflies, spider mites, or aphids. You may also want to consider using an organic insecticide to protect your plants.
5.    Be prepared for changes in temperature Outdoor temperatures can fluctuate greatly, especially during the summer months. Be prepared to move your plants indoors during extreme weather conditions such as heat waves, cold snaps, or heavy rainstorms.

happy arranging,
