the ultimate (?) plant thread

Remember when it comes to plants that a lot of them will produce more or can be propagated with ease. A couple plants can become 50 in as little as 6 months in the right conditions. I can't afford to buy a lot of plants. I started with 3 Peperomia and I now have 27 after giving away 9 of them. It is time to do some more trimming and start some more. It helps that I really like to grow plants and start new ones. There really aren't too many that I have found that are not fairly easy to propagate or they will produce more in a few months.

I forgot, an excellent source of info is a garden center that has a terrarium section. They are getting more popular. Talk to the people who work there. They are a wealth of info. Try not to base your knowledge from folks at home depot or lowes. Not that they don't have any knowledge, just that they normally have no knowledge as it pertains to our hobby. There are some bright folk working the garden sections of those places, but tell them you want to put the plants in a tank with 90% humidity and you'll get funny looks....lol
