First week
Let plants acclimate before repotting. Place them in suitable light and check soil moisture before watering.

Care Guide
Simple routines for light, watering, drainage, and acclimation help customers keep new greenery healthy.
Ongoing rhythm
Use pot drainage, seasonal watering changes, and leaf checks rather than a fixed calendar for every plant.
Frequently asked questions
- How often should I water my indoor plants?
- There is no universal schedule — water by checking the soil, not the calendar. For most indoor plants, let the top 3-5 cm of mix dry out before watering again, then water thoroughly until it drains from the base. Plants need less water in cooler months and more during active summer growth.
- Should I repot a plant as soon as I get it home?
- No — let a new plant settle for two to three weeks first. It is already adjusting to the light, temperature, and humidity of your home, and repotting at the same time adds stress. Once it looks comfortable, move it up one pot size into fresh mix.
- Why are my plant's leaves turning yellow?
- Yellowing is most often a watering issue, and usually overwatering rather than under-watering. Check that the pot drains freely and that the soil is not constantly wet. A few yellow lower leaves can be normal ageing; widespread yellowing with soggy soil points to roots sitting in water.
- How much light do indoor plants need?
- It varies by species. Snake plants, ZZ plants, and pothos tolerate low-light corners, while monstera, fiddle-leaf figs, and most flowering plants want bright, indirect light. Direct midday sun through glass can scorch foliage, so filter it with a sheer curtain.
- Do I need pots with drainage holes?
- Drainage holes make plant care far more forgiving, because excess water escapes instead of pooling around the roots. If you love a pot without holes, use it as a decorative cover pot and keep the plant in a plastic grower pot you can lift out to water.
