Plant Care Tips

Light Requirements

Most houseplants thrive in bright, indirect light. South-facing windows provide the most light, while north-facing windows offer the least. East and west-facing windows provide moderate light. Observe how light changes in your space throughout the day and seasons.

Signs of too much light include scorched leaves or faded coloring. Signs of too little light include leggy growth, small leaves, and lack of color in variegated plants.

Watering Guide

Overwatering is the most common cause of houseplant problems. Most plants prefer to dry out slightly between waterings. Stick your finger about an inch into the soil - if it feels dry, it's time to water.

Use room temperature water and water thoroughly until it drains from the bottom of the pot. Empty the saucer after watering to prevent root rot. Reduce watering frequency during winter months when plants are dormant.

Temperature & Humidity

Most houseplants prefer temperatures between 65-75°F (18-24°C) during the day and slightly cooler at night. Avoid placing plants near drafts, heating vents, or air conditioners.

Many houseplants appreciate higher humidity. You can increase humidity by grouping plants together, using a pebble tray with water, or using a humidifier. Mist plants occasionally, but avoid misting plants with fuzzy leaves.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I water my plants?

Watering frequency depends on several factors including plant type, pot size, soil mix, light conditions, and season. Most houseplants prefer to dry out slightly between waterings. A good rule of thumb is to check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch deep. If it feels dry, it's time to water. Succulents prefer to dry out completely between waterings, while ferns like consistently moist soil.

What are the best plants for beginners?

Some of the most forgiving plants for beginners include pothos, snake plants, ZZ plants, spider plants, and peace lilies. These plants are adaptable to various light conditions and can tolerate occasional neglect. They're also excellent at purifying indoor air.

How do I know if my plant is getting enough light?

Signs of insufficient light include leggy growth (long stems with wide spaces between leaves), small new leaves, leaning toward the light source, and loss of variegation in patterned leaves. Signs of too much light include scorched or bleached leaves, brown crispy patches, and wilting despite adequate watering.

Why are the leaves on my plant turning yellow?

Yellow leaves can indicate several issues: overwatering (most common), underwatering, nutrient deficiency, or natural aging. Check the soil moisture first. If it's soggy, you may be overwatering. If it's bone dry, you may need to water more frequently. Older leaves naturally yellow and drop as part of the plant's growth process.
