I sometimes imagine how convenient it would be if my plants could just let me know when they need water or more sunlight. So, I'm curious: what do you find most frustrating about keeping your plants healthy? And do you think if your plants could actually communicate with you, it would be helpful, or just gimmicky? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Honestly, the most annoying part for me is just having to use a watering can because I don't have a hose nearby. But once you learn to read your plants, it can be really fun figuring out what they want! It's all about building that skill.
You know, plants do communicate in their own way! If you observe their growth and condition, it kinda tells you what they need. It does require some experience and attentiveness, though. For those of us who aren’t as observant, it would be nice if they could give a hint sometimes!
I feel you! My plants take a lot of effort and sometimes I just can't shake the guilt when I don't meet their needs. Maybe if they could send me messages about how they feel, it would help, but I'm not sure if that would ease my guilt or just make it worse. What do you think?
I totally get that! I’ve lost my fair share of plants not knowing what they needed. Maybe a gentle reminder system would be more supportive than stressful.
