Light
Light influences growth, color, and health; understanding intensity and duration helps match plants to their ideal environment.
Water
Water supports nutrient uptake and plant function; proper timing and drainage prevent stress from over- or underwatering.
Soil
Soil provides structure, nutrients, and airflow; the right mix supports healthy roots and prevents compaction or rot.
