I created Sit A Second to make plant care less overwhelming and more personal. Whether your brain is forgetful, hyperfocused, or just figuring things out, I mix soil that works for you. This isn’t about perfection—it’s about plants that thrive on real-life care.

The real reason your plant isn’t growing? It probably needs more light. Learn how to read your space, spot signs of low light, and finally understand what “bright indirect” really means—without any fluff.

Most plant problems start with watering—but it’s not your fault. This guide breaks down how to water deeply and intentionally, choose the right soil, and stop relying on guesswork or schedules. It’s time to water with confidence, not guilt.

You don’t need a science degree to understand grow lights. This guide explains what actually matters (like wattage and placement), what to skip (purple alien lights), and shares my personal favorite lights I use at home—with zero overwhelm.

Not all soil is created equal. This guide explains what substrate is, why your plant's default mix is probably wrong, and introduces four custom blends I created to match both your plant’s needs and your brain’s watering style.
