Spending more time at home during this strange season of most of our lives may mean spending more time around your house plants. You see them more, you think about them more, you give them more care. Typically when you think of giving something more love or care, you think that can’t be a bad thing right? Well, when it comes to indoor plant care, it might just be that...a bad thing. Many common houseplant problems stem from OVER caring for your plants. You may be overwatering, over-fertilizing, over adjusting the plant’s location or pot situation. Your plants may not be doing so well because they are OVER all of this extra love.
No worries, we know that your heart is in the right place when it comes to your plants. The first step in fixing your fixation of over caring for your plants is to recognize the signs that you may be doing this. It’s important to be knowledgeable of each of your plant’s care needs and to recognize that needs (and the amount of attention needed) will vary from plant to plant.
