Hi! I am @LeaveTheLightOn , and I’m an addict.
In the ‘plantwall’ are a little over 350 plants alone..
We have around 400/450 plants in our house..
We also love to grow our own vegetables and such:)
MomWithHiddenTats
Holy shit. You have an amazing home.
ShinigamiZak
Amazing plants! How do you combat vermin on the plants? I always get Sciaridae on mine :(
LeaveTheLightOn
Never had any trouble with that! Hope it stays that way, that must suck:(

I love your house. How do you plan on the interior design?
auburnman
My dumb arse was genuinely interested in finding out what plants could be addicted to...
LeaveTheLightOn
Water. ;)
titaniumsnail
Love the water feature. Very stylish.
LeaveTheLightOn
Thank you!!

Absolutely amazing organic minimalist interior design @OP! Liz Lemon said it best:
LeaveTheLightOn
Thank you <3
graehall
You're welcome. I just shared this with a bunch of folk, and was raving about it. This took work, time, and taste. I love it <3
LeaveTheLightOn
Ahww, that is so sweet:). Yeah, took some time, but we are so happy with it!
graehall
I'm glad you enjoy it. I can only imagine how meditative the spaces you have created can be :)
DubhIainn
You have a really nice space and aesthetic. Your yard is just beautiful. How long does it take to water everything?
LeaveTheLightOn
About an hour and a half..:) but all worth it!
DubhIainn
Definitely worth it. I've had to reduce my plants to a minimum sadly; but I'm hanging on to 2 verbena bushes and some lavender :)
SnoopyDancing
nice! I have some plants from grandmother and mother that are 40, 50 and 60+ years old. I am already thinking of who I will give them to.
LeaveTheLightOn
Whoah that is amazing!!
SnoopyDancing
yeah, gonna go give new pots to a few and some new dirt to a couple of others.
nicoleMcomix
Damn, I knew I was keeping a massive wine jug in my shed for some reason
LeaveTheLightOn
Yessss! You can make them easily yourself! We did that too:) not the one pictured though

Makes a nice change to seeing a big tv on the wall

I'm envious of the tidiness and minimalistic design of your rooms, @OP ! Looks awesome :)
LeaveTheLightOn
Thanks! Not always this perfect though;)

My username is relevant!!!

It damn sure is!

I don’t see anything wrong with this
Lexi343
I don't know if you will see this, but how do you avoid fungus gnats? I start a plant collection and my house gets covered in gnats.
LeaveTheLightOn
Hmm I never had this problem myself, but I know it can happen when you over water a plant. They like humidity. Maybe a climate thing also?
Lexi343
Thank you. I'll try that. Being in Texas, it's pretty dry.
MsMelanie0808
I can't think of a healthier addiction! Also supports my addiction. Love love love the bulb terrariums and plant wall. Great job!
LiarLiarPantsUntier
Well, cocain keeps you slim.
IFrickinLoveSharks
I managed to kill a cactus...
Stratego89
Was gonna say, as far as addictions go, this is pretty healthy as long as the wallet doesn't burn because of it. Cleaner air + mental health
MsMelanie0808
Consider hobbies as an investment in mental health!
LeaveTheLightOn
Thanks!! They are from https://spruitje.nu he makes some amazing stuff!

I thought my wife having roughly 100 plants in our house was a lot lol.
LeaveTheLightOn
Nah, you should let her buy a few more;)
electronicbovine
A little pricey, but suuuper cool.
LeaveTheLightOn
Yeah, I know:( if I could, I would buy it all
illogical06
See I really want that in my living space too, but with 0 effort.
LeaveTheLightOn
I am afraid that this takes a little more than 0 effort;)
rayeofsunshine
Love your plant wall. Any tips on making that work without a ton of mess?
LeaveTheLightOn
Thank you!! It is a system from mobilane: https://mobilane.com/products/livepanel-pack/ . Setting it up was quite a mess, but só worth it
rayeofsunshine
Thank you. I will check it out
Greeneyedfox
Really cool! Wish they had herb options for it though. Would be great addition to kitchen
LeaveTheLightOn
Ohh that would be amazing!! I find it hard to keep herbs alive :/
Bionicbananas42
What is the maintenance like on that? Do you have issues with water on the wall?
LeaveTheLightOn
Almost no maintenance! We poor water in the beams (in this case 3) every 3 weeks. No water on the wall:)
SharkOfAwesome
I couldn’t find prices on the website. How much does something like this cost?
SmutGrrrl
Much

Came here to say I misread the title too
notabotandnotnotabot
Perhaps some of the plants are addicted to...pot?
LeaveTheLightOn
That’s it. You won the internet today

^ I came here for this comment.
LeaveTheLightOn
They might be. I’ll ask them ;)

A colleague swears she had a caffeine addict plant - ex-office, had coffee cup dregs fed to it, died when rehomed and no longer caffeinated
CuteKittenMonster
Coffee grounds are good fertilizer

Did you base your name on the Beth Hart song?
LeaveTheLightOn
I did!! <3
Chainhealer
Beautiful, I saw her live a long time ago but that song always stuck with me.
