Would You Choose to Grow Young Plants or Buy Mature Ones?
Asked by PlantLover92
If money wasn't a concern, would you prefer to start from young plants and grow them yourself, or would you rather buy mature plants that are ready to go?
Answers
I lean towards buying mature plants, honestly. Growing from seed takes a lot of time, and I really want to enjoy the special traits that come with mature plants sooner rather than later. I'm all for having fewer statement plants instead of a ton of small ones that just take up space.

My girlfriend and I have started growing our own plants from seeds, and it's been a fantastic little hobby for us. We love watching them thrive and have learned so much through the process! Plus, we're regrowing clippings, and it's exciting to separate our aloe vera baby that has been budding a ton of offshoots. It's really rewarding!

Honestly, I enjoy nurturing my plants from the very beginning. Even if money were limitless, I'd prefer growing my indoor garden from cuttings and tiny plants. It feels more rewarding to watch them grow from scratch!
NatureNinja: Totally get that! There's something special about seeing them develop over time.
