The best way to water your plants
Make one person responsible
If you make someone responsible for watering the plants, they will never get too much or too little water. And besides that, you know who to talk to if a plant dies anyway. 😉
Don’t water your plant because it’s ‘time’
Make sure you get to know your plants and discover how often every single one of them needs water. That always works better than sticking to watering twice a week because you’ve read that somewhere.
Drain excess water
If a plant gets too much water, it can rot. Therefore, pour away excess water after half an hour, or place your plants temporarily on a draining board.
Use water at roomtemperature
If you give your plants ice-cold water, they will startle. Especially if they’re originally from a tropical climate, like the anthurium and orchid. Therefore, use water at room temperature.
