Different plants require different amount of lights. It some cases when it is necessary, you also can consider the artificial light in order to make sure your plants get enough amount of lights.

Even though in general the flowering plants need more light than the foliage plants yet croton (foliage plant) needs lots of light to keep its vibrant leaf color. At the same time most plants with thick, fleshy leaves need less light yet the cacti do very well in bright light. Total amount of time spend in light also can influence (not necessarily the intensity) for some flowering plants like Christmas cactus, chrysanthemum, kalanchoe and poinsettia. With proper care of soil, water, and humidity, most plants can do better with less proper lighting.

Even if you have room with no windows artificial light can still provide some amount of light for your plants to grow. There are plenty of artificial lights suitable for growing plants indoor – mostly for the hydroponics grower.

It was introduced to West since 1885 when it was brought to the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. Nowadays they’re plenty of beautiful cultivars available for this plants lover. While the original Aglaonema still as popular as before.

They are many species available A. commutatum (Chinese evergreen) with thinner leathery leaves, with 6 in long, on bushy plant can reach height up to 18 in. The leaves have dark and silvery grey in colors. Some other popular cultivars are A. commutatum ‘Pseudobracteatum’, also known as ‘White Rajah’ and A. commutatum ‘Silver Queen’ with their larger leaves and bold white or silvery markings.

Aglaonema commutatum also known as Chinese evergreen.

Water:

Just as light, different plant needs different amount of water (you almost tell me – I already know that!) but still no plants can grow without it. So be sure that your plants always get adequate amount of water. Let us see the tips:

• Make sure your pots have good irrigation (water can get through easily) so you just can pour enough amount of water. So check the soil regularly. The best things you can do just by reading the instructions from the seed’s package or just asking the sellers. By the time you can tell the plants watering need by the features of their stems or leaves.
• Yes, over watering can kill plants when their roots get drown in the water. Remember that the roots also need to be airy (to absorb oxygen in the soil, unless you’re growing water type’s plants. Be more observers when to find out about the right amount of water for your plants check the stems, leaves sizes, and colors.
• Use the water with the same temperature where your plants located. The best way to do this put the water container next to your plants for a while before start watering it.

Heat (temperature):

Just like human plant need heat to grow healthy. As a general rule of temperatures between 65-75 degrees Fahrenheit, during the day and 10-15 degrees cooler at night. Now this will not cover all plants, but this is the range for most of the house plants. Here are a few more tips to follow:

• The temperature can go up or down by 10 degrees from the ranges above, it will not kill the plant.
• Rapid changes in temperature, either colder or hotter, can cause damage to your plant.
• If a plant is grown at a hotter temperature than is needed, it will be small, weak. If it is grown in a too cool temperature the leaves will have a yellowish look and will fall off.

Pots and Containers:

Pots are just like the plant itself as it also can be another attraction. Instead of the amount of the soil that it will hold, it also needs to be spacious for the growth medium that you’re going to use to grow your plants. If you’re going to use soils make sure that it’s have a good drainage holes to allow easy water flow. Unless you’re using artificial medium such as bio-gel then there is nothing to worry about. Make sure that the pot is clean and clean it up thoroughly if you already used it to growth another plants previously. Just in case some disease that may affect your next plant.

Humidity:

The level of moisture in the air can also affect how your plants grow. Low humidity, in most plants, not all, will cause dry leaves and curling. Increase the humidity of the room with a humidifier, especially during winter when the heat is on and the humidity drops. You could also spray the leaves with water, do these in the morning, if done overnight the leaves can rot. Another simple tips to control humidity for your plants is by placing a container of water nearby, use a plate likes container so the water can easily vaporize.

Fertilizing:

Fertilizer is the real food for your plants. Most of the fertilizer already contained in the soils. In order to control the growth of your plants you need to make sure that they had enough fertilizer (but the needs are different between species and usage – such as leaves or flowers). Other factors include, how fast you want the plant to grow, how much sunlight there is, how many times you water it, etc. As a general rule, for plants that are growing very quickly, you should fertilize every 2 to 3 months, but for dormant plants, you shouldn't fertilize at all. Since these are indoor plants, that receive less sun than normal, you really don't have to fertilize them too often. Fertilizer can also kill your plants, make sure to be careful to use chemical fertilizer (always use it in small amount) and be more observers to your plants physical changes.
