I adore my plants, but dealing with depression sometimes makes it tough to keep up with their care. I'm looking for simpler ways to water a large number of plants. Is there a method that can save me from losing a chunk of my collection every few months?

You've already received some solid advice! I suggest considering self-watering pots for humidity-loving plants. It may also help to reduce your collection size. Less stress equals more joy with your plants! Remember, it's about what brings you happiness, so don’t hesitate to let go of a few if they’re becoming a burden.
One of the easiest methods I've found is bottom watering with trays. Just place your pots in trays filled with water and let them soak it up from the bottom. This keeps the plants hydrated without you having to water each one individually.
I've got a great setup that makes watering a breeze! Grab a 5-gallon bucket, a foldable dish rack, and an electric sprayer. Just position the rack over the bucket, place your plant on it, and use the sprayer to water them. It saves me tons of time!
Totally agree! Focusing on fewer plants can really turn things around. Plus, you might find joy in the ones you keep!
