Before we dive into the science, let's first get a quick review on how our body responds to natural light, like the sun, and

The school itself is a beautiful building with lots of natural light, high ceilings, wooden floors,

Because it has windows on all three sides, it provides really beautiful, soft, natural light to all of those spaces so that they don't need to rely on any artificial lighting during the day.

They like it when the water is at room temperature So we all know that house plants need soil and good light and some water in order to thrive But one thing that can commonly be missed is the fertilizer which is the plant's food and every plant is different But in the spring and summer usually they need to be fed every two to four weeks I usually do it every two weeks, but in the winter it's in its rest period So usually they don't need any feeding at all during that time I just use this universal liquid variety that works on all of our house plants Some plants work well in the Sun some work well in the shade But regardless all of them need some source of natural light now in the darker winter months You might need to move your plants towards a light source But generally speaking plants don't like to be moved they get accustomed to the environment that they're in so move your plants if you have to But otherwise just let them be The Other consideration with plants is the temperature you want to make sure you keep it within a range that it's comfortable at keep in mind That plants in front of windows see pretty varying temperatures depending on the weather outside As well as plants that are by air conditioning units or radiators now if you find this all really Overwhelming to keep track of we actually created a free PDF for you that might help out a little bit in addition to some tips There's a page that you can use to Document the needs of each of your plants that you can then later refer to in case you've forgotten And there's also a plant watering tracker so to get your PDF check out the link in the description box below Insects and bugs love dead and decaying foliage So be sure to remove any rotting or dying leaves that are just sitting on top of the soil and whenever I see leaves that Are visibly about to die I just prune the plant by cutting these off so they don't steal essential nutrients from the leaves that are continuing to thrive While you're watering your plants just take a quick second to inspect the leaves to see if there's any signs of any insects or bugs And if there are you want to deal with these right away?

full of natural light. So that means, you know, light from outside comes in, which is,

and then we had this hour and a half where we had to capture everything in natural light.

When this small little room is lit with natural light, you just feel like you're part of something greater than the four walls of the room.

Yeah, so it's just, like, a really nice, uh, well-lit place by natural light,
