Hello 👋 I’m new to the plant world, always loved flowers and plants but never had the chance. I’m hoping to be very involved with my lovely plants, have 10 of them so far 😊I’ll be heading away on holiday for a week on Tuesday and I’m just wondering what should I do about watering them. I have monsteras, alocasia, spider plant, calathea white fusion, cordyline, aloe, tradescantia, peace Lilly etc. I don’t want them to die, I will be giving them keys to a friend and should I let them water them or would they be ok for one week 🥺thank you so so much 😊

They should be fine for a week. It’s a safer bet than having someone who doesn’t know anything about plants potentially overwater them.

I was thinking that, some plants will need to be watered right before we go but some won’t, I’m just worried they might die on me as I’m a newbie as well 🤦🏼‍♀️ although I did hear that it’s easier to save under watered plants rather than over watered. Thank you so much for your comment 😊

You’re a good plant mama to worry but I promise they won’t die one you. They might give you the stink eye when you get back until you give em a drink but they’ll get over it. Builds character 😉

If you’re REALLY worried or if you’re ever traveling more than a week, you can get little self watering inserts. The OG kind are called “ollas” - made of terracotta and slowly releases moisture. They make them in all sizes/shapes. But they’re all lots of different kinds out there, same concept and some are pretty cute.

You can add a caretaker in the app, they can’t change stuff it just lets them know what and when the plants 🌱 need something!! Send them an invite to be caretaker and have him download the app!! That’s what I do!!
