All garden lovers would like to receive good compliments for our green thumb. However, things seem to go out of control at times, with plants just withering away. You may wonder what caused it, but these simple tips can make a lot of difference to your garden and win accolades from admirers!
Plants need sunlight: Since indoor plants do not attract sunlight unless you make an effort, take care that the plants get their daily dose of the sun. If your plant isn’t getting enough light it will appear thin and leggy looking. Plants will “reach” toward a light source, so rotate your plant occasionally to promote straight growth.
Quench their thirst: Plants need as much water as any other living being needs for its survival. Use room temperature water when watering your indoor plants. Soak thoroughly but make sure plants aren’t allowed to sit in water as this can cause the roots to rot, proper drainage will alleviate this. Place your plant in your kitchen sink or bathtub and use the spray attachment to gently rinse it off. Use lukewarm water and allow your plant to air dry before returning it to its regular location.
Let indoors be pollution-free: Remember, a plant breathes too. It needs fresh air for healthy growth. Since indoor plants have to rely on the air inside the room where they stay, make sure the room is congestion free and allows fresh air inside. Plants can suffer if kept in air that is always smoky, stagnate or overly dry.
