I mean it’s probably true, if you can take care of a ton of plants, your place is obviously well maintained. Plants are hard af, Ive failed at every attempt. If someone complimented my air, I would be ecstatic
Plants are actually kind of easy. If you want to try again:
Choose the right plants. Yes, some plants are hard to keep and need specific environments. Avoid those, other plants are able to grow on a parking lot in the summer
Some plants need direct sunlight, others like the shade. Some plants need a lot of water, others not. This is written on this little cardboard thingy when you buy them
Yeah, and that’s it. Buy plants that don’t need much maintenance and you’re fine. Maybe set a reminder to water them.
I figured, I’d get one of those standard issue succulents, because they’re supposed to be easy to care for, and now it decided to grow a 30 cm stalk, when the rest of the plant is just 5 cm tall.
Like, what the hell, dude. Am I supposed to cut it off? I don’t even know what kind of succulent it is, so I can’t look it up either. I’ve just been letting it grow and hoping that it doesn’t entwine my whole place. 🫠
You can get plant ID apps on mobile. If it’s leggy, it probably is trying to find sun. You can prune/trim it, even propogate, just need to make sure you look up how that works.

Sunlight + water + a place to grow. Just the basics. I’m a plant beginner, my problem is fussing with my plants too much…

You can still read up on succulents in general, they all have similar needs
