As the holiday decorations come down and the New Year’s resolutions start rolling in, there’s one goal that never goes out of style—bringing more green into your life! Whether you’re a seasoned plant parent or a total newbie, starting an indoor garden this early spring is a fantastic way to refresh your space, boost your mood, and even improve your air quality.
At Maya’s, we believe that everyone deserves a little plant therapy, and we’re here to help you dig into the basics of indoor gardening—no green thumb required!
Why Start an Indoor Garden in Early Spring? 🌱
Spring is all about fresh starts, and your plants feel the same way! While the outdoor world is still waking up from winter’s nap, your home is the perfect climate-controlled haven for new growth. Starting your indoor garden in early spring allows your plants to establish strong roots before the intense summer heat kicks in. Plus, if you plan on transitioning some plants outdoors later, you’ll have a head start!
Here are just a few perks of getting your hands dirty this season:
✅ Improved Air Quality – Many houseplants filter toxins and increase oxygen levels in your home. Breathe easy!
✅ A Natural Mood Booster – Studies show that greenery reduces stress and increases happiness. 🌿✨
✅ A Year-Round Harvest – Grow fresh herbs and veggies indoors—goodbye, overpriced grocery store basil!
✅ Creative & Therapeutic – Gardening is like a free therapy session, minus the couch.
Dirt Matters: Choosing the Right Soil & Growing Medium
Not all soil is created equal! The key to a thriving indoor garden is choosing the right growing medium based on what you plan to grow. Here’s a quick cheat sheet:
Growing Medium / Blend | Description | Ideal for Plants such as: |
🌴 General Blend | Premium blend for plants that thrive in nutrient-rich soil with excellent water retention. |
|
🌿 Aroid Blend | Perfect for plants that thrive in nutrient-rich soil or thin roots. It contains a high-quality blend of sustainably harvested pine, fir bark, and hand-harvested golden sphagnum moss. |
