    I've set metal coatracks in front of my living room windows. They have three shelves for plants and then the hooks and top bar which I hang plants from. I can also hang a light to supplement lighting. I get them from Amazon for around $50.00 or less.

I rewinded and then told Ernie that I had something important to tell him and he stopped what he was doing, I showed him the first 60 seconds of your video and he asked me to leave LOL!! He knows that more plants are coming and I still don't have as many plants that he has tools. That's his thang and plants are mine. Thank you for the video. By the way, I like that idea of a double window sill.

    Is your apartment a living echo system where temps and humidity is always great because you introduced so many plants?
    Or do some plants die regularly and have to be replaced?
    Do you physically turn on and off all the lights in different parts of you apartment everyday or are they all on a timer like Alexa?
    With so much different plant types and so many different needs, how do you keep up?

    I like the hang-a-pot thingies, I'll look up if they've got those on my country. Atm I mostly just nail macrames to the walls, but I can only use small nursery pots because I don't really trust the material of the wall ( neither do I trust the ceiling. The house was build during the hyperinflation crisis in 1923😅).
    A lot of shelves don't work for my space since my walls are round not straight and standing shelves means there will be a lot of unused space at the back of the shelves.
    So...yeAh not enough space is an issue. Right now I am slowly taking over other parts of the house until someone puts a stop on it. Haha

    If you're able or allowed to, I actually bought some 7 dollar shelves from home depot and have those in the wall that hold about 15lbs each for their size and look really nice and clean as well. I also bought a bookcase from Ikea, and the bottom half has the door covers where I store misc stuff, while the top half has shelving in with some grow lights taped to the underside of the shelves and works well for all my succulents. I'm living out of one room right now and have a LOT of plants for my room, so vertical space is crucial for me already, and if it has bonus storage space, even better lol.

    I have a friend, her mother and live in maid are both crazy about plants and she was saying how crazy it is living with them, as they want to fill up everything they find is empty, or can be used as a planter or hanger, with either a propagated plant or a new one, they get home, or fill in every empty space on the wall with a pot!:D it had me laughing as I am one of those!:D

    It might be easier to find joists in one's ceiling. Studs are in walls. :-)
    I'm not sure if this video is advantageous, or dangerous. I think my main hobby is collecting hobbies. TH-cam makes that way too easy. I have more hobbies than anyone could possibly have time for, and I keep collecting more. I also tend to get carried away collecting stuff for each hobby. Cluttered doesn't begin to describe my house. And now I'm considering starting to collect some plants, and try to make room for them. I was considering doing so before I found this video. But now you've gone and given me ideas on how to make room for them. I might be living in a jungle before long. :-)

    I bought a set of those cube grid wire organizers and set it up in front of a window. The thing is now FULL of plants, so much that the plants on the inner side are stretching out to the light, which meant I had to install LED lights. With so much light, I plan on updating the furniture to add shelves on top. Note that this space is a 2m x 3m little nook formerly known as my home office.

    Hi Summer! I have a question about lighting. you mentioned that if plants get too much light they may become clhorotic. I was curious if Plants can actually get too much light. Lets say a low-light plant that has a grow light pointed at it from a reasonable distance, will it affect it negatively? Or are the negative effects mostly related to direct sunlight and temperature? I would love to know the answer! thank you!

      I think with the new condos, they have those floor to ceiling windows, but typically they 1.) have some type of sun blocking elements to them and 2.) don't open, so I'm grateful I have these "old school" windows. And doing as well as can be....Stay safe Mike!

    Less is more, unfortunately I saw the video of Jamie's London apartment first so the difference is more stark for me. Your plants don't have enough space to show their beauty, overcrowding makes it really hard for them to pop out. The love is obvious but not the self restrain.

    I created a plant swing, similar to yours (no holes) with just some with some boards and cotton covered clothesline. It hangs from the ceiling with hooks on molly bolts. It really fills the space well.
    I also have some plant hooks, usually for outdoor posts, which I hung on either side of a window. The hook fits a pole, that extends along the whole window, where I have plant hangers hanging.
