Every time I read a fic in which a character is going out of town and needs someone to water their plants every day I'm like... tell me you've never kept a plant alive without telling me you've never kept a plant alive.

Like y'all, outside plants might need daily water but if you're watering your indoor potted plants every day they're going to get root rot and die.

#some might need daily misting i guess? maybe?#but probably not #idk i only keep heartier plants and i only water them maybe once a week #so if i go on vacation i just water them all ahead of time and don't worry about it #I've only had one plant die on me in the last 7 years #I've had my spider plant for 13 years #so not overwatering is actually helpful lol #the plants i can't keep alive are for sure ones that need more moisture #but every day watering would still be bad
