How do I tell if my plants are healthy or struggling

Sure! Here are eight different ways to tell if your plants are healthy or struggling:

[EliasFarley]

**Look at the Leaves**: Healthy plants usually have vibrant, green leaves. If they’re turning yellow or brown, or if they’re dropping off, that’s a sign something’s off.

**Check for Pests**: If you notice tiny bugs or webs on your plants, they might be struggling. Healthy plants don’t usually have pest problems.

**Soil Moisture**: Stick your finger in the soil. If it’s too dry or soggy, your plant might be stressed. Aim for that sweet spot where it’s just moist.

**Growth Rate**: If your plant isn’t growing at all or seems to be growing super slowly, it might need some extra love or a change in conditions.

[JaxenCarson]

**Stems and Branches**: Healthy plants have strong, upright stems. If they’re drooping or feel weak, that could be a red flag.

**Flowering or Fruiting**: For flowering plants, if they’re not blooming or producing fruit like they used to, they might be struggling.

**New Growth**: Keep an eye out for new leaves or shoots. If your plant is producing new growth, it’s usually a good sign it’s doing well.
