Summer brings sunshine, warmth… and challenges for your plants. But with the right care, your green companions will thrive all season long! Whether indoors or on your balcony, here are some essential tips from ThePlantic to help you grow through the heat.
Avoid watering during peak heat. Water your plants early in the morning or after sunset to prevent evaporation and root shock.
Move sun-sensitive plants to shaded areas or use a green shade net for balcony gardens. Indoor plants should be away from direct harsh sunlight.
Spray a light mist on plant leaves during hot afternoons to keep humidity levels up, especially for tropical varieties.
Add a layer of mulch (coco chips or dry leaves) on top of the soil to retain moisture and reduce heat stress.
Hot weather means dry soil. Check moisture levels frequently and adjust watering accordingly.
Aloe Vera – Thrives in heat and is great for skin.
Areca Palm – Loves humidity and light shade.
Snake Plant – Super low-maintenance and heat-tolerant.
Mint & Basil – Refreshing herbs that grow well in summer.
