In the winter, the pace of development of house plants slows drastically, indicating that they require significantly less watering. Overwatering can lead to decay.
As the days grow shorter, it’s critical to move indoor plants to a location where they can receive the most sunshine. Light sensitivity varies per plant, and too much sunlight can damage some plants.
A buildup of dust on the leaves can clog their pores, allowing bugs to enter. Cleaning them on a regular basis is essential, especially during the winter. In addition, any leaves that are broken or infected should be removed because they can transmit diseases or pests.
Many indoor plants prefer cooler temperatures. Our homes are frequently too dry and hot for our requirements, and heating in the winter just makes things worse. Keeping the environment humid will help keep your house plants happy.
Adjustment to changes in temperature is something most indoor plants are unable to deal with. In the winter, plants get an equal dose of cold and chilly air coming in through door and windows and heat from fireplaces or radiators. The key to keeping them healthy is to keep the temperature steady.
