Every time you check on your plants you do not need to water or mess with them, just let them be!

Love this!

Crotons will grow nicely if you keep the roots moist and don't move them. Just keep in the same spot with very bright light.. And I've learned you do not need water in the self watering pots all the time.

This is great!! They can be quite tricky 😅

Auxsman, I know you are sooo right and I’m still quilty. I should have read this before my walk through this morning. Lol

Our idea of light levels vs a plant’s perception are very different. A light meter is the only way to know for sure how much light a plant is getting.

#### Phil svarte den 2026-02-18

Yes Mads! Most people overestimate the amount of light hitting their plant.

Nailed it!

### IvyPlanter08 kommenterte den 2026-02-19

Do NOT follow the "ice cube" suggestions on the care tags lol that's just silly!

### IvyPlanter08 kommenterte den 2026-02-19

Fiddle leaf figs LOVES sunlight!

### Tee Jay kommenterte den 2026-02-19

Patience is key. That’s a tough one for me lol. Also, when you water your plants, water yourself too. Gotta stay hydrated!

#### Morgan Picillo 🖤 🌿 svarte den 2026-02-19

So true!!

### Kenzie kommenterte den 2026-02-19

The rule “you don’t need to buy one” I have just gotten into the plant life and I have just been sticking to asking friends for trades or cutting of their plants! It has helped my bank account 😅

#### Morgan Picillo 🖤 🌿 svarte den 2026-02-19

This is great! Cuttings from friends make them more special too 💚

### IvyPlanter08 kommenterte den 2026-02-19

You can repot your plant whenever YOU feel like it lol just be careful not to damage any roots and not go to big. I finally found the substrate that works with my watering care and my plants are thriving!

#### Morgan Picillo 🖤 🌿 svarte den 2026-02-19

So true! I'm happy to hear your plants are thriving 💚

### IvyPlanter08 kommenterte den 2026-02-19

Don't water your plants using the "ice suggestions" on the care tags from stores lol that's just silly 😜

#### Morgan Picillo 🖤 🌿 svarte den 2026-02-19

It is 🤣
