Kekkilä...

My mom knows. Ask her!

Dirt and water. It's easy!

Nothing. My father however uses high tech equipment which lets you grow plants inside. Apparently, he's growing some herbs which "will get him in the poop if he's caught growing them"
eh.

What's a plant?

Sphagnum moss is good for some delicate plants; however, outdoors, the fertile volcanic soil's pretty good; just a little potting mix or compost to get 'em started sometimes.
I don't actually tend for plants on my own, whenever I do something like that I'm always acting under instructions from someone far wiser and more skilled.

Hmm, I don't think I've ever encountered Kekkila here either. As Big D said, I usually just plant where I've been instructed to plant. I greatly enjoy nature, but do not possess a green thumb.

Take care all.

i love sphagnum moss. it's actually my ebay name.

I don't know. I'm not the one using it. That would be my parents...

I need to acquire some pot plants. Any suggestions? Maybe I'll just get some yukka or something.

Marijuana is pot plant :D

Boy, I didn't see that coming from you! Ha.

They don't do well in hanging gardens and/or with dogs though.

Cacti are good, especially the colourful ones. Low-maintenance, slow growth... but nice. Creeping vines, flowering ones in particular, are effective; you can plant 'em in a pot on the windowsill and let them climb up the curtain rail. Top stuff. Beans and passionfruit are highly recommended.

I have one bamboo plant and all I give it is water.

If you're careful, you can grow a perpetual pineapple - when you eat a pineapple, keep the 'core' attached to the leafy bit at the top. This part can be re-planted and grown into a whole new pineapple. Unlimited yumminess.
