In today's video we share 3 secrets for propagating indoor plants or houseplants from cuttings. Using this technique, you can propagate plants like pothos, betel leaf and many other houseplants easily. NOTE: Few days means 4-7 days. Watch your plants daily!

We go over the secrets of setting up a mini greenhouse humidity dome, then show you how you can propagate plant cuttings in it as well as how you can propagate seeds in this humidity dome.

We show you how to propagate plants in sphagnum peat moss or green moss and how easily humidity domes help you root plant cuttings. Rooting hormone or rooting hormone powder is used to get plenty of roots for your plants including house plants. House plants like pothos and others benefit greatly from this rooting technique

Give tired plants a wake-up call with a little leftover coffee

Thus, I began pouring coffee for my fig tree a couple of times a week. I made sure the liquid was room-temperature to avoid burning the roots. And because coffee is quite acidic, I diluted it half-and-half with tap water. My tap water is hard (alkaline - pH over 7), so the mixture's pH should be about neutral.

While coming up with this design, I had three goals in mind:

1. Build a raised bed that would be functional for growing vegetables (holding soil at least 18” deep) and would also support an 8’ high trellis for privacy.

2. Stick to a design that would require only tools I already owned. Since my power-tool collection is more the homeowner variety than a carpenter’s workshop, this meant a drill and chop saw. (You could also get by with a circular saw.)

3. Finally, to adjust the design so it would maximize the yield I could get from dimensional deck/fencing – lumber available at my local home center.

Last summer, I needed to repair my deck. After completing the necessary work, I had a small stack of new-lumber offcuts and old, left-over deck boards. Instead of taking the wood to the landfill, I made a small garden bench that can be easily moved from the deck to other parts of the yard. I settled on a finished height of 18” and determined the width of the seat by using three boards with ¼” spacing. The length of the old boards determined the length of the bench, which in this case was 5’.

I made my planter box out of cedar, which smells great and weathers very well. I kept mine natural to easily blend with any outdoor patio style. You could also paint or stain it to match your own personal style.
