5 Plant Care Mistakes People Are
Making While in Quarantine Whether you’ve been a plant parent for years or
are new to the game, showering your plants with
attention while on lockdown may be harming them. Here are the five most common
mistakes people are making while
spending more time at home
with their plants. 1. Your plants need more water
If the leaves are turning light brown,
crispy or begin to droop, you may need
to pay more attention to them. 2. Your plants need less water
If the leaves are turning brown or yellow, you
may be giving your plants a little too much love. 3. Your pot doesn’t have drainage
Make sure the cute planter you bought
has a drainage hole to avoid root rot. 4. Your plant isn’t hungry anymore
There’s typically no need for additional
fertilizer or compost. Repotting once
a year should do the trick. 5. Your plant has different light needs
It is possible for plants to get sunburned, so read
up on the lighting needs of your specific plants.
