Hi team

Just wanted to reach out as I’ve been quite on the social side.

I’ve been flat out remaking my grow space. Full line and installation.
Plus a redesign of the layout

Picture’s to show the hard work soon

The Plant Mechanic

Most people know me as a diesel mechanic from Kangaroo Island, South Australia. For nearly 30 years I’ve made a living diagnosing problems, rebuilding machines, and keeping equipment running when it matters most.

Turns out that mindset works just as well with plants.

What started as a hobby has become an obsession. Over the last year I’ve immersed myself in the world of Anthuriums, Monstera, and other aroids, chasing the science behind exceptional growth instead of relying on luck. I enjoy understanding how every part of the system works. Light, VPD, nutrition, root health, water quality, environment. If something isn’t performing, I want to know why.

That’s where The Plant Mechanic comes from.

I don’t just grow plants. I troubleshoot them. I tune their environment. I test ideas, question assumptions, and keep refining the process. The goal isn’t simply to own rare plants. It’s to grow them better every season and share what actually works.

Whether you’ve just bought your first Monstera or you’ve been collecting for years, you’re welcome here. Expect practical advice, honest experiments, a few successes, a few failures, and plenty of impressive plants along the way.

Let’s build something worth growing.
