| 0:00.0 | What's going on everyone? Kevin from Epic Gardening here. Back with Maria from Bloom and Grow Radio and we're talking about low-light apartments. |
| 0:11.0 | So yesterday we talked about sunny window sills and what you can do on those |
| 0:14.4 | which is certainly quite a few things because you have a lot of the most important ingredient for |
| 0:19.6 | our plant which would be light but what if you don't What if you have a low light apartment and you're getting sad and emo because you think |
| 0:26.6 | that you can't grow any plants? |
| 0:28.8 | You definitely can grow some stuff and I'm going to let Maria come in. |
| 0:32.0 | She's got the DL. She has the plant DL and she's going to give it to us right now. |
| 0:36.4 | I'm going to give you the scoop. Yeah baby. I love it. Yes low- light is an issue with a lot of house plan parents, but there are certainly |
| 0:47.7 | plants that you can choose and some remedies that we can talk about today. So the first thing is understand that if you visually |
| 0:55.6 | think that your apartment is low light, |

| 1:17.8 | the low-low-light tolerant plants. I want to say I want to give a shout out to my most favorite plant in the whole |
| 1:26.2 | world and a plant that I feel for and that's the snake plant otherwise |
| 1:30.4 | known as Sansaveria I think it's just the most beautiful plant. It's so cool and it is |
| 1:37.3 | so hard to kill if you don't overwater it. You can, meaning, you can, I have forgotten to water my snake plant for like a month and it just |
| 1:46.2 | still trucks along and it's super low light tolerant so I think if you have a |
| 1:50.3 | low light apartment that's like the perfect plant for you. The thing that |
| 1:54.3 | breaks my heart about the snake plant is it actually thrives in highlight but |
| 1:58.6 | because it can take low light a lot of people end up using it as a low light plant and it makes me sad |
