You can totally use 'regular' LEDs or CFLs/T5s and other kinds of bulbs like HPS or MH as a grow light. Grow LEDs are normal LEDs, just more powerful that we would normally use in our homes. The minimum required for a medium sized plant to thrive is maybe 1500 to 3000 lumens per square foot, depends on the cultivar, so a single 8w or 10w bulb won't do much difference, you need to get higher amount of watts ( or use multiple smaller bulbs/ LED chips). Every white bulb is more or less full spectrum (slightly differs because of colour temperature, usually from 2700k warm white to 6000k cold white).
Any source of light can induce photosynthesis as long as it has good PAR output (photosynthetically active radiation , the range between 400nm-700nm that plants absorb and are able to use for photosynthesis). Coming from indoor medical cannabis grower with 15+ years of experience :)
With the energy prices this winter wonder if we can afford plant lights
Exactly.
I very much enjoy your videos. Very straight forward and easy to understand. A helpful tidbit I have found is that when moving plants from outside to inside for winter or vice versa for summer, make sure the temp is the same outside as inside. It will help tremendously!
Thanks!
I'd be interested to see a video on "5 tips to keep your plants alive this summer" - living in Spain and 35-40+ degrees weathers are killing my plants.
Your videos are so informative and helpful. As not native speaker I am struggling with your accent but thanks captions I understand everything and every time I learn something new.
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
danke schön
The other day I prepared my plants for the coming winter season. I moved the sensitive ones away from the window, because of a cold draft and I brought a grow light to help them grow during the cold season and I inspected and cleaned the leaves 🍃. And I also have the humidifier on during the day. I'm glad that I did everything you mentioned in this video.
Perfect 😁
Great information. Very helpful. Skip the added clips...they are not enjoyable or entertaining. Otherwise i really like your channel. Thank you.
I have to agree about the added clips. I've recently discovered this wonderful Channel, and I come here in VERY large part due to SMP's personable presentation. The added clips are superfluous 😊
Having said that, maybe just sprinkled here and there. I hadn't actually noticed them in other videos (so I don't know if they weren't there, or if I just didn't notice), but I had noticed comments regarding that in this video today. When I went back to review this one for the information, I did notice them, especially the more noisy ones.
However, if it works for **you** as the channel creator, carry on ☺️ - I will still be watching these videos for the wonderful information and beautiful photography!
Same here and our heat (on) season so I keep a humidifier on and I use grow light because Temps near windows is too cool.
The idea of not watering the plants as much during the winter is only a great idea if your central heating doesn't create dry air. I end up watering about twice as much during the winter, because so many of my plants grow over top of radiators (unfortunately, most of my windows have radiators under them.) I just have to be very vigilant about the watering to ensure the watering is correct over the winter.
Strange cos mine are the opposite even with central heating on
@abc68099 not really effective unfortunately. Tried it and did nothing
Same situation with the radiators for me. I think last winter I had to water mine once a week. My mom insists that I have to do it twice a week. I'll be buying a moisture meter so I can figure out what my plants need because this year I'm having issues.
im a brand new plant mom and I've noticed that my spided plant seems to need about the same amount of watering as before. though, I did get it in OCt and this is my first winter with plants so ig ill see if he needs more in the summer/spring but as of rn the amount of watering seems fine for him C:
Similar with where I'm at (Vancouver). It's humid in the summer, and indoors it's dry in the winter.
I love my moisture meter! And I think my plants love that I use it!
Absolutely 👍
Hey Mr. Sheffield....I am taking your advice. I ordered the grow light that you recommend. I have a plan to group my small potted plants on a table to let them benefit from it.
My hanging vining plants will have to fend for themselves over the winter.🤣🤣🤣
Wish me luck and I will update you in the Spring 2023!🪴🪴🪴
Excellent I look forward to the update 😁
I love my water meter...when it's accurate. I've had some problems with them. I think it's because many of my plants are succulents, grown in a very gritty mix with much more pumice than soil, or even soiless mixes. The grit seems to interfere with the accuracy of water meters, and of course, succulents cannot tolerate overwatering.
I also use various topdressings on many of my plants, both for looks and to deter fungus gnats, so that complicates using my finger to check whether a plant is ready for watering.
My favorite solution, free if you like Chinese takeout food, is to use a clean, dry, wooden chopstick to check for moisture. For succulents, I can get the chopstick down to the bottom of the pot, and if it's still clean and dry when I take it back out, that tells me when to consider watering again. For other houseplants, I can also use a chopstick to check the top couple of inches of soil if I don't have a working water meter on hand.
Nice tip thanks 👍
We've just come out of winter in the southern hemisphere and I lost three plants. As soon as the temps drop below 15°c some calathea, fiddleleaf figs & maranta turn up their toes. I'm ready for next year with a plastic storage box and heat mat. I'll also check plants for minimum temps before I buy any more. Thanks. 👍
Cool thanks Jules 😁
Another great video, I've been waiting for this one, Being from Canada where we get 5 hrs. of good ol sun a month .🌦️
Glad you liked it 👍
Winters coming!!!! Yaaaaa G. O. T. WOOHOO
😂
Mr. Sheffield... I find ur videos very helpful. I like gardening.. But not a perfect one. I want share my experience with one plant u were referring to... the one with orange stalks ending with broad leaves.looks like a kind of agloanema .. U said there is little information available on it. The plant I bought from a nursery had a small inflorescence on it... When it dried I crushed the pods which were looking like cardamon pods... And dropped in the soil... After about two months I c several small saplings coming up. I am excited. I live south India.
That sounds great. Didn't know they grow pods you can make more plants from.
Yes.... It's hardy plant... Surviving well out doors.... In a sunny area indoors too.
Brother I love your all advice and tips,always Informative videos,
Specially uk winter heard to keep happy house plants 🪴
Thanks
Thanks Firoza 😁
I've moved mine around today I'm on the case 😇
👍
my boyfriend got me a couple of pinguiculas (butterworts) which are carnivorous plants that have sticky leaves to trap fungus gnats and other small insects! they are working really well so far :)
Might give that a go 👍
Sounds cool!
Thank you for all the information 🎉🪴
Thanks Wendy 👍
Yay another amazing video I am just finishing changing the soil and cleaning on my plants and putting them back inside I got a little carried away in the summer and buying new plants because they were outside I had so much space and now I'm bringing them back inside I don't even know where to put them LOL
Thanks Mishel. I know what you mean. As they get bigger we run out of space.
Yes exactly
super helpful for me ive never had plants before and this is my first winter with some and id really hate to end up killing them. Ive taken such a loving yo my lill spider plant in the month or so I've had him and I *just* added a lill aloe to my plant fam that I'm already loving!
Great stuff! You've got the bug 😁
For me it's the opposite. Because of the lower angle of the sun, the reflection from the snow and forced air heating, my plant keeping and watering routine doubles in the winter and i use half as much supplemental light. Only extend the use by a few hours for a few areas to compensate for the shorter days, rather than most areas for most of the day. I have only ever had one plant go dormant throughout the winter, the rest usually experience the most growth of the year.
You’ve definitely got some unique circumstances. Where do you live?
@@SheffieldMadePlants
Central Alberta. But my situation is kind of unique i suppose. In the country, so no neighbours, and no roads in sight of my house for 5 kilometers, so snow as far as the eye can see, making for brighter light in the winter on overcast days, than a sunny day at noon middle of July. It's compensation for the terrible positioning of my house 🤣. The 80's were singlehandedly the worst decade for house construction i tell ya! They plunked a house in the middle of nowhere, on the side of a forested hill (so no sunlight coming from the west in summer ) made it face it north east and put in no south facing windows to take the edge off the heating bill . 😳
@@whiskybrush3219 well it sounds like an amazing spot
I love your funny little clips u put in your vids lol. U Crack me up!
Thanks Bobbie 😁 glad you like it
Editing must've been a huge undertaking for this video! I appreciated all the little clips though. Adding some humor to your great information!
Thanks Kris 👍
Some of this isn't completely correct.. in homes with air conditioning during summer months (especially in humid area's) drink less. Where as in winter the dry warm air during winter months can dry plants out quite fast. Im a botanist.
"Sure, sure, huhuhuhu" I feel attacked D:
Useful video as always, glad to see your subscriber count growing, you deserve it.
Thank you very much!
Fungus gnat at 2:17
Helpful thanks! Enjoying the random movie quotes 😁👍
Thanks 😊
Très enrichissant. Bien rigolé. 😂
Thanks 😊
Thank you,
for the tips!
💕🌱's
Thanks Darlene
Спасибо за предостережение😇
Lost a few aglaonemas in winter last year. Didn't realize they give up hope and die when temp drops below 16
Aye these tropical plants like the warmth.
I just start watching your video the very interesting very amazed I got a few plans and I'm learning about how to keep them from winter how often do I water my plants if I have a grow light??
Probably once every couple of weeks but always best to check the soil before
The clips are cute!
Thanks Rhonda 👍
Is the aglaonema yours ?
Hi, why shouldn't you fertilize the plants in winter?
Thank you for all your recommendations! *_*
The plant isn’t growing in the winter so doesn’t take up the nutrients
I cut my watering down 75-80% during winter
Awesome.. video..I was about to ask about regular LED lights for growth..is it possible to find one that offers effectiveness without the high price tags
Yes. U can find led grow bulbs for cheap at big box stores and they fit any lamp and are cheap to run.
@@robertkat you can find expensive ones as well yes. The ones I have are $15 each and I use them in the winter They work great.
@@bobbiechinn9578 could you please give me the information on those lights..it would be much appreciated
yeah i just checked again. CNSunway has 4 ft T8LED light sticks, 5200 lumens 6500k. Here in Canada a pack of 6 runs approx $96.00
You cant get a much better deal than that.
@@kbm4409 Just keep in mind that going with those kinds of lights, if its anywhere remotely at eye level, those lights are incredibly bright (regardless of the brand you go with) and will dim out the rest of the room. if the ones you choose do not have a reflector hood, you might want to fabricate one yourself. I have added a retaining edge on my plant shelves for this purpose but that's not always handy.
how deep are you supposed to stick the moisture meter into the soil (in cm?). I am scared that I'll damage the roots when I stick it in. Also, my plants' position in the winter months is on the window, but ofc I need to open the window 3~4 times a day. Should I move the plant away while having my window open?
Towards the bottom. A poke with a moisture meter won’t harm the roots so I wouldn’t worry 👍
I live in the west of England that borders Wales. I have a south facing unheated conservatory that houses many of my indoor plants. They will be facing their first winter this year. Should I invest in an oil filled radiator to keep the temperature even for the cold winter nights? Or any other advice would be appreciated.
If temps go below 12c in there I’d have a little heater in there to take the chill off
What did you end up doing? I'm also on the west coast, much, much further north. Lol. And I have to move all my plants out of my large south facing conservatory for the winter. This year I'm experimenting with leaving a hoya in there, but with fleece around it's base.
What light is that you’re using at 3:27 ?
That’s a Sansi light. It’s a stock photo so not sure exactly what it’s called
What’s your advice about using Neem Oil ?
I’ve heard good things about it for pest prevention
Can you keep your humidifier on all the time or should you turn it on for a while then turn it off..then repeat daily
Better to have it on consistently rather than on and off
I moved to Australia! Easy ...
Nice idea 😁
Just started my houseplant journey and I'm still learning how to care for my growing collection....
Out curiosity; if you have enough grow lights going do you think you'll still need to adjust your watering/feeding schedule during the winter?
Yes the plants will be growing so you’ll need to increase your watering and feed
@@SheffieldMadePlants perfect thanks; keep the videos coming :)
I love the silly clips.
Brill thanks Jeanne
When I bottom water the soil stays damp for over a week. Is this alright?
That’s fine as long as you wait to water again
Hello again.Another Question please..Will my Houseplants survive in a cold unheated Conservatory during the Winter ? I know my Yukka does. Thanks
Houseplants don’t like temps consistently below 15c. What temp will it be in there?
@@SheffieldMadePlants Thank you for reply.I'm not sure but its bloody cold.If the temperature is above 15 degrees though will they be OK? There's plenty of light of course.Cheers Paul
@@pauloroarty1799 above 15c then yes they’ll live. 15c is minimum so they won’t exactly thrive
Thank you, You're a Gentleman.I'm going to buy a room Thermometer so I can keep an eye on them and I can always whip them indoors if there's an issue.By the way I bought one of those water meter things and its been a huge help in avoiding over watering. Thanks again.
This is my first winter with my new plants and I was just wondering a few things because I live in Montana. Is it okay to water plants once a month ( of course I’ll check the soil with a meter) but another thing about the sun will indirect bright to medium bright work for my plants during the winter months I’m on a east side window. My plants will not be getting any sun from the south or west. Please help! Any advice!
Another thing is it okay to put my plants in the bathroom when I shower for some humidity like the Calatheas plants? I was going to do the whole pebble and water thing during the winters and take it in the bathroom.
Absolutely fine to give them sun in the winter. Scale back your watering but like you say check before.
Honestly I wouldn’t move you plant in and out. They prefer consistent humidity. I’d pick a nice spot for it and leave it there
If I am using a grow light do I still to water less?
Probably but it’s always worth checking before
@@SheffieldMadePlants thank you!
Nice! Your videos should be seen by more watchers. May I repost your channel without changing anything on the clean platform named Ganjing World? Thank you!
You can share my channel thanks
But in my place winter are very dry n my plant get dry very fast .. I m confused
Witer?
Winter I mean... 😃
👍
I like the funny clips 😂. Good video as usual
Thanks 😊
What is the plant on the thumbnail? I bought one from Lowe's and the tag doesn't say what it is. 🐀🐾
Aglaonema
Hello 😊. Please msg me how to take care of plants, indoors, when the heating system is on.
Thank you 😊
Not much you can do apart from keep them away from radiators
Ok
Thanks a lot 😊
very good information, BUT, there is wayyy to much non plant popups and it ruins the video
🙏💚🌹🥰👏

The added crazy clips are so distracting just like the annoying ads . Otherwise you give great plant info.
i find them quite funny 😊, not the ADs, the clips
I think they're funny too!
How rude
They are annoying, makes my flinch every time, because of sound difference
I like the added crazy clips:) and for the ads , pay the premium:)
Cool video but we don't rly need those memes in there. I don't find them funny - only annoying. But hey - I'm almost 40 :P
So am I!
How do you manage to care for all your plants? I'm cutting back on the number of plants in my home to give the remaining one's proper attention. I enjoy your channel very much and have learned a lot from it. 😊🪴
Thanks Barbara. Watering takes a while but other than that they just sit there 😁
