🌱 Propagating Plants in a Low-Light NYC Apartment?
Forget the grow lights, bag tents, and complicated setups.
Here’s how to do it the Tenacious Roots way — low effort, real results.

🪴 1. Choose the right plants
Ferns, pothos, Chinese evergreens, and spider plants all thrive in indirect light and are perfect for apartment life.

💧 2. Bottom water, always
Set your pots in a shallow tray for 20–30 mins. No overwatering, no soggy mess. Roots pull exactly what they need — and grow stronger doing it.

🪟 3. Window light is enough
Even a dim north-facing window works. Just keep the spot consistent — plants don’t like to be relocated every few days.

🌬️ 4. Use a humidifier
Misting is mostly a myth. It dries out fast and doesn’t raise humidity enough to matter. A small humidifier nearby keeps your space around 60% humidity — perfect for propagation and healthier for you, especially in dry NYC winters.

🌿 5. Skip the plastic bag trick
It's unnecessary, fussy, and honestly... ugly. If your home has steady humidity and moisture, your cuttings will root just fine in soil.

💚 Tenacious Roots
Helping NYC plant lovers grow more, stress less — one windowsill at a time.
