Once you have decided where you are going to place your plants, it is time to get on the road with the right tools for the job. For beginners, individual 6” pots are ideal. The material of the pot in itself is not important however, sufficient drainage is critical. Using the right soil makes all the difference. You cannot consider using outside ‘dirt’ as it is too dense and will not allow air to circulate or the water to drain. Standard potting mixes are available at all garden centres, which are typically fine to use. Care should be taken to keep this mix sterile to avoid infections in the new plants. Adding an additional fertilizer or compost is recommended to give the plants a nutrient boost in the beginning. Hanging pots make a very pleasant decorative piece without consuming too much space but keep in mind that it should be a spot that is easily reachable for watering and such. Keep a clean spraying can handy, which can be used to water the plants. It can also be used to lightly spray the leaves to keep them clean and infection free.
