Houseplants are a necessity for every home because they help replenish oxygen in closed spaces and can also give additional personality to a room. However, plants also require care and the right conditions to grow well. Achieving that can be hard in a dark apartment, but there is now a new TikTok viral hack that helps with that.
Growing Plants in a Small Home
The new TikTok hack is from Samantha Herman, or @houseplusplant, and is about creating a DIY grow tower from three simple and inexpensive supplies. It includes a corner shower caddy, zip ties, and grow lights. First, the shower caddy should be made, and then the zip ties can be used to secure the grow light onto the bottom of the four shelves.
The final result is a great black shelf tower that can have potted plants on each level, and there is also space for larger plants on the floor below. According to Samantha, all people should be able to have healthy and happy plants no matter their living or space situations.
Using a Shower Shelf Tower
The shelf tower for plants is great because it can made at such a reasonable cost and is incredibly beneficial, as well as not causing damage to the walls or floors for those who are renting. Hermann advises people who attempt this DIY project to take their time to manage all of the cords properly.
The best part is that because you aren’t mounting anything, you can move the tower based on light and space needs, making it a versatile way to take care of your plants. If you get the right lights, they’ll work for any type of plant no matter its light needs. So if you’re a renter wanting to grow plants, what are you waiting for?
