Plant Care - Why Do You Keep Killing Your Plants? Just Stop It...

Have you ever wondered why you suck at looking after plants? Well don't worry we've all been there mate and I don't blame you for being angry every time you spend $23.95 on a plant only to kill the fucking thing.
 
Plus nobody wants to keep going back to Bunnings and talking to Sharon at the checkout again, because let's be honest she doesn't know anything about your Begonia and she doesn't care. (apologies Shaz)
 
Don't be a plant murderer and try to go to bed every night knowing you've offed some more plants offspring. GET GOOD by doing a little prep.
 
  1. Look, choose plants that are actually going to thrive in the space you want to put them in, there is no point buying a plant that is fucked from day one if you put it in a dark corner and just "hope for the best"
  2. Know your limits. OK, so you think you're the next plant daddy and you want to take a chance, probably don't go out buying plants that have serious humidity requirements or frequent watering's if you're out every night on the town or away for work, because dem boys gonna die!
  3. Stop watering them... Like right now, it only takes you a couple of plant deaths to know you're a chronic over waterer
  4. Fertilise and repot in the warmer months to maximise growth.
  5. Remember that nobody is perfect and sometimes things just don't work out, so do your research before you start stocking up the house on plants.
