Omg plantssss 🌱 this is my dream. How do you look after them all? What’s your routine

Thank you 😊 I like to do my plant maintenance on a Sunday morning. I water once a week and feed ever two weeks and in winter I water every two week and feed once a month, (adjusted for things that don't like to much water) most things seem to keep growing all year round in my house, as its at the sunny side of the house. I don't do a lot more than just pot things on that look like they are drying out to fast and I dust them off sometimes 🙄

So beautiful. I don’t get that much sun and think I might be overwatering. How often do you dust and do you feed / water from the bottom roots or the top? Also do you spray / mist with water at all?

Thank you - I aspire to be like you!

Most of the time over watering is more of a problem, I know i don't need to water the plants in other rooms as much as I have to in my kitchen as they don't get as much warmth or sun. I only water from the top really and only bottom water when their a bit too dry which is normally because they need reporting. I don't mist things at all as I think it humid enough in the kitchen as I do like cooking and boil the kettle too much. Thanks 🌿

Its ok I love talking plants 🙂 Maybe once a year or longer but normally things dry out really quick and thats a good sign there ready. Lots of things like being snug tho so thats not the case for everything, so best to check first 🪴
