Monsoon Plant Care Guide

During monsoon, reduce watering frequency since natural humidity keeps soil moist longer — overwatering is the most common mistake this season. Ensure pots have good drainage holes to avoid root rot. Watch for fungal growth and pests like mealybugs, which thrive in humidity; a mild neem-oil spray every 2 weeks helps. Move sensitive potted plants under a shade net or balcony overhang during heavy, continuous rain.
