How often are yall Cleaning your leaves? Once a week? Every day??

    Plants in the cabinet get wiped down every month or two. Plants out on shelves get the fluff blown off whenever I'm watering something (usually 3-5 days a week) and a proper wipe down once a month. I have a husky, so the plants out in the open collect fur in their leaves at a truly horrifying speed 🫠

    Everyone seems a bit more on top of things than I am. Mine only get their leaves cleaned once they can go outside and get drenched by the hose!! 🙃🪴

      Before I lived with a husky, my plants' leaves got cleaned *maybe* 2-3 times a year. Now if I don't keep them clean, they can't absorb enough light to survive. And then I feel bad that the shelf plants get cleaned and the cabinet plants don't, so I end up wiping them down too 😅 Having a husky is the best method I've found for doing more cleaning than I ever thought a house could possibly need 🫠

    Once a month maybe? If it looks dusty? It’s sporadic. 😬

    I just look closely at the leaves and if they look dusty I wipe them. I don’t do it super often or on a schedule. You know the look of a healthy shiny leaf vs when it’s more dull? If it seems dull then it’s wipe time 😊
