I guess a lot of the old people that live here are cold and like it to be hot. I love hot weather outside, but definitely not inside.

My plants are very happy with that. Why is your apartment so hot? Have you asked the management? Is it cold outside? So strange. But you know ceiling fans can also dry the soil out I imagine.<br />BrendaBrenda Pruitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14544794729410559072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1791860108829806850.post-91049413346571776882020-01-06T10:48:22.197-05:002020-01-06T10:48:22.197-05:00Oh no about your plants.

Could you cool off your apartment by putting your air conditioner on maybe when you get the most sun and heat during the day. Just to help cool things down. Then shut it off when things cool down or keep it at a steady temp. While the rest of us need heat you might just need to use your air conditioner more. Hope you can keep things going with your plants. I know how much you love them.<br />Hugs,<br />KrisJunkchiccottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13312068546640480844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1791860108829806850.post-46487915980177008852020-01-06T10:08:28.201-05:002020-01-06T10:08:28.201-05:00I know how important your houseplants are to you. ...I know how important your houseplants are to you.

I also RARELY ever run my heat and my apartment temperature is usually around 76 and never drops below 72. Yesterday I ran my A/C for a while just to cool down. I use my ceiling fan both in the living room and the bedroom and that does a pretty good job of keeping it comfortable in here. I have two cats who liked playing in the plants soil and making messes, often knocking them over, so now I don't have them anymore, gave them to friends and family. I also had a tendency to over water or underwater them, I am not very good with inside plants.Patricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11649952059969489546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1791860108829806850.post-44184705633130384742020-01-06T09:07:26.532-05:002020-01-06T09:07:26.532-05:00I have never been very good with houseplants.

I am wondering if you could run your air conditioner to cool off your apartment. You shouldn't have to be so overheated all of the time.Ellen D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03776803182673252265noreply@blogger.com
