Tips for Caring for House Plants While Traveling 

Water Thoroughly Before Leaving: Ensure plants are well-watered to sustain them during your absence without overwatering. 

Group Plants for Humidity: Place plants together to create a microclimate, maintaining higher humidity levels. 

Move from Direct Sunlight: Position away from direct sunlight to prevent drying out too quickly. 

Use Moisture-retaining Methods: Employ mulching or water-absorbing crystals to retain moisture in the soil. 

Cover with Plastic Bags: Enclose smaller plants in plastic bags to create a mini greenhouse effect. 

Enlist Help: Ask a friend to check on plants periodically and provide clear watering instructions. 

Automated Watering Systems: Invest in drip irrigation or self-watering pots for consistent hydration. 

Prune Before Leaving: Remove dead leaves and limit fertilization to conserve plant energy and reduce water needs.
