We all know that this is the most important thing when taking care of anything, but we often forget to water our plants. Or sometimes we water them too much, which basically means we just give them too much love.

2. Talk to your plants

While research done on talking to plants seems to point less to a positive impact of speech and more to the plants responding positively to vibrations, you can still talk to your plants since your voice creates vibrations!

3. Name your plants

While there isn't any specific reason why naming your plants is pertinent to caring for them, but it's fun! It makes it more interesting. You might get a two for one deal with plants, like this cactus, and you can give them cute twin names!

4. Pot your plants

Potting plants is so much fun. There are a ton of places you can get good pots, and often the best pots aren't technically meant to be pots.
