So, I generally find myself asking them questions about how they care for their plants. Most often, the problems are solved by changing watering habits or by moving the plant to a better light situation. Often doing both of those things makes a big difference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In almost every instance, changing the way people look at watering and lighting for their indoor plants gives them positive results with their houseplants.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I care for indoor plants as my job and I know that there are not many plants that I care for that always use the same amount of water or need watering on a rigid schedule.
