Indoor Plants

learn what each plant is actually asking for

Get better at keeping houseplants alive and thriving โ€” reading light and water, soil and repotting, catching pests early โ€” with a care log per plant instead of guesswork.

A copy carries over only the public parts you see here โ€” the owners' private files never leave their own vaults.

๐Ÿšง Draft โ€” not final. This page was auto-generated as day-one scaffolding for the project and still needs a human pass before it reads as finished. The blanks and placeholders below are intentional โ€” someone who runs this project should fill them in and delete this notice.

Plant โ€” money plant (pothos)

The template, filled for one real plant. Every plant gets a page like this โ€” because "water everything on Sunday" is exactly the habit this project replaces. Copy it for the next plant.

The basics

  • Species: money plant / pothos (Epipremnum aureum)
  • Spot in the house: (where it actually lives)
  • Light it gets there: bright indirect is ideal; tolerates low light but grows leggy and pale in it.
  • Watering rhythm: when the top 2โ€“3 cm of soil is dry โ€” not on a fixed day. Pothos far prefer under- to over-watering.

Reading this plant

Sign Likely means Do
Yellow leaves overwatering (the #1 killer) let it dry more between waterings
Brown crispy edges too dry / low humidity water sooner; move off the hot draft
Long gaps between leaves too little light move somewhere brighter
Roots out the drainage hole root-bound repot one size up
