Every Plant Needs to Be Watered According to the Species.

Without a doubt, all houseplants have the requirement to be watered as needed. However, not everyone has the same time to do this. So, it is important to pay attention when watering them. Well, the way they will grow and develop will also depend on this. 

Portanto, o ideal é regar de acordo com a necessidade de cada planta, ao invés de definir um cronograma genérico. Contudo,  há plantas que são cultivadas em um solo bem molhado e outras que não é necessário tanta água assim. 

For example, cacti and succulents need much less water. However, plants that produce flowers usually need to be watered more frequently. Furthermore, excess water is often one of the main reasons why plants grown at home wilt. This way, if you're not sure when to water, it's better to leave it a little dry than to overdo it with humidity.

Fertilizing Your Plants Is Also Important.

Agora, tão importante quanto regar as suas plantas, é saber quando e como utilizá-las. Pois, também existem regras para saber quando se deve  fertilizá-las. Pois, isso dependerá de fatores como taxa de crescimento, idade da planta e também da época do ano. 

Generally, some plants grown at home tend to have growth spurts in spring as well as summer. Therefore, know that this will be the best time for fertilization. However, between the autumn and winter months, most plants grown at home do not need much fertilizer. 

So, you need to know that just as too much water may not be good for your plant, neither will too much fertilizer. Therefore, too much fertilizer can end up burning the roots of your plant and thus making it impossible to grow. A tip for flowering plant varieties is to use fertilizer that has nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium on its label, with equal levels. However, if the nitrogen content is too high, for example, your plant may grow with many leaves and few flowers. So, pay attention to this!

Propagate Your Plants Whenever Possible.

Various types of plants grown at home tend to benefit from this when propagated. However, this helps several types of already grown plants to rejuvenate and also stimulates the growth of others. What's more, it's also an economical way to expand your garden.

Geralmente, plantas de casa como é o caso das bromélias, costumam criar brotos novos na base da planta. Sendo assim, você pode separar e colocar em novos vasos.  Além disso, as plantas como filodendro e pothos, criam raízes novas quando seus caules entram em contato com a terra. Portanto, são ótimas para começar novas plantas por meio de estacas. 

Anyway, with these tips for caring for plants indoors, you've discovered that each plant needs different care. This way, these tips will help you take care of new plants. Therefore, with proper care, you will have beautiful and healthy new plants.
