Welcome to the plant life! One of the best (unsolicited) tips I can give is to not buy a bunch of plants! Keep these alive for 6-8 months and THEN try something new. It’ll save you a lot of money and headache!

ah how exciting! just be careful not to overwater! that’s the main thing to learn about each individual plant is how much water they need. use the app as a reminder to check your plants, not as a schedule for watering necessarily. if you get a moisture meter on amazon or something, you can stick that in your soil and it’ll read if it’s dry or wet and that has been very helpful for me to reach the bottom of the pot since that’s where the moisture retains the most. others have different method. you can also just touch the top layers for some, but i like to check the bottom of the pot. good luck with your babies!! have fun(:

There’s no such thing as a green thumb. Just people with really big windows.
