Your article is the answer to my delimma with my house plants! My cat loves digging in the dirt. I'll go shopping now for an indoor mulch. Maybe if she can't see the dirt she won't "use" the dirt. Love the idea of sedums and the moss too. Great article, GGG.
Hi Kelli:
No, I do not get mineral build up. My soils are organic based, and I only fertilize occasionally with fish emulsion. I just take the plants outside to do it and let the smell burn off. The "mineral" build up is often salt from chemical fertilizers.
I have seen some organic houseplant fertilizers on the market more recently too. They are not carried by salts so should minimize build up.
