These are some of my favorite indoor gardening products, along with links for where to find them (not affiliate/advertising; just for convenience):

Haws plastic indoor watering can: Not just for looks. I’ve tried a few different cans and like the spout on this; it’s precise and pours slowly. Fewer spillovers and doesn’t displace soil or topping. Nice that a rosette tip is included, too.

Fox Farm Ocean Forest potting soil: Unlike peat-heavy soils that stay soggy for a long time and then dry to an impossible-to-rejuvenate crisp if left too long, this is a nice, quick-draining, grainy soil with lots of great ingredients that help plants grow well. (I’ve also tried: Miracle Gro, Black Gold, and Pro-Mix. Of those, Pro-Mix High Porosity is good. I like that it contains mycorrhiza, but it’s peaty and the HP blend can only be bought in gigantic cu.ft. bags.)

Repti Bark: For mulch/topping. Normally used for lining reptile tanks; can be bought at most pet stores. Serves as an excellent, light-weight soil topper to deter gnats a bit.

Plastic planter liners (any hardware store or nursery): I rarely pot directly in terracotta -- it dries too quickly and can become moldy over time. I use these liners as well as regular plastic nursery pots inside of other “cache pots”. They help retain moisture a little longer, keep the pots clean, and can be lifted out easily for maintenance or repotting. I use a snap-blade knife to cut an X at the bottom for drainage.

Dyna-Gro Foliage Pro: My favorite liquid fertilizer. Weekly, weakly.

Fox Farm Bush Doctor: A supplement fertilizer with lots of oceanic ingredients that plants love.

“Turkey” baster: For when you’ve watered a little too vigorously. Use it to drain the water out of your saucers before it spills onto the furniture!

Solo Pressure Mister: This thing is my favorite! I like to mist as often as I can to help deter spider mites and raise humidity. Those copper and brass misters are cute, but I’d get carpal tunnel having to use that on 150+ plants. These pressure misters can also handle additives (oils, pesticides) that clog most other nozzles. I’ve tried one other pressure mister, but this one is much better -- the spray is very fine, it’s lightweight, and doesn’t take very many pumps.

Moisture meter: Especially if you’re new to watering/house plants/a particular soil, etc., these are really helpful and shouldn’t cost more than $5. I have a few. The correct way to use them: stick into soil, check the reading but DO NOT rely on it solely -- wipe the soil off with your thumb and forefinger and then rub them together to check if moisture comes out. Between the reading and your skin-test, you should have a good idea of your soil’s condition.

There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing a grain moisture meter. These include accuracy, ease of use, price, mode of operation, calibration, moisture measurement range, number of species supported, and more. If you frequently test the moisture content on the field before harvest, then a grinder-type meter or a cup-type meter will be most suitable for you. As it can tell you if your grains are dry enough for harvest.

Many of these moisture meters support several species, have a wide measurement range, and can be calibrated.

In Africa where grains are usually packed and stored in 50kg to 130kg sacks, a probe-type grain moisture meter like the GrainMate GM-102 is a very suitable choice for African farmers and aggregators. This is because it can be used to easily probe bags and take moisture readings within a short time both during and after harvest. The GrainMate Moisture Meter comes with a mobile app that lets users record, track the moisture content of grains across different suppliers and get useful recommendations. Aside from being effective and accurate, GrainMate Moisture Meter is considerably less expensive than other meters on the market. And affordability is very important since most farmers in Africa are unable to afford expensive technology tools.
