These 5 spots at home are no-go zones for plants - put one there and it dies fast, so move it right away
More and more people are growing plants nowadays. As a kind of home decoration, flowers and plants are a very good choice, and they can also purify the air, absorb dust, and give people a better and healthier living environment. But many friends say that houseplants are hard to grow and very easily wither and die. Actually, there are reasons behind this - did you know? These five spots at home are no-go zones for plants. As long as you keep them in these five places, they are guaranteed to wither within a month, so if any of these apply to you, hurry home and move them to a different spot!
The first one: next to large appliances
First of all, we need to correct one idea, which is that plants simply cannot absorb radiation. This is actually just a psychological comfort, while the radiation from appliances is very real, and it is indeed harmful to people and also very harmful to plants. If our plants are placed too close to large appliances, before long, the side facing the appliance will develop dry, withered leaves, or even leaf drop. This is also the reason many friends fail to grow their plants well.
The second one: air conditioner vents
Many people casually place their plants right at the air outlet of an air conditioner. Actually, this is no place for plants, because in this situation plants absolutely cannot survive. I wonder if you have noticed that in any room with the air conditioner on, the air humidity is very low, let alone right at the vent. Plants strongly dislike extremely dry air. If we keep plants at the air conditioner vent for a long time, it will blow them dry and kill them. Many people never notice this, and even when the plant withers and dies, the grower still does not know why.
The third one: next to radiators
Of course, the south has air conditioner vents, and the north has radiators. Air conditioner vents and radiators have the same effect, and it is best not to keep plants next to radiators either, because a room with a radiator not only has dry air, but the temperature is also extremely high. In winter, a radiator in the north can even reach 40 to 50 degrees. Never mind plants - even people cannot stand staying next to a radiator for a long time. It is completely normal for plants to wither there.
The fourth one: overly shady places
The vast majority of plants quite like sunlight. Even those that do not like sunlight as much still appreciate scattered light. So if we keep a plant in too hidden a spot, with sunlight almost completely cut off, then that plant definitely cannot be grown well.
The fifth one: places without ventilation
I have stressed time and again how important ventilation is for a plant. In terms of transpiration, ventilation can strengthen transpiration and quickly evaporate surface moisture, so that water does not accumulate. Without water accumulation, the chances of rot are reduced. Ventilation has another effect too: only in a well-ventilated place can a plant grow well. If the air is too stuffy, no plant can grow vigorously, because a ventilated place has a continuous supply of oxygen and carbon dioxide, which is what speeds up their photosynthesis and makes a plant's growth possible.
Do you keep plants in any of these five spots at home? If you find that even one of them applies to you, then hurry home and move it to a different spot, otherwise your plant definitely will not grow well.
