What Causes Indoor Plants to Die? Practical Reasons & Solutions

The death of indoor plants is one of the most common problems facing companies, and the cause is usually a combination of simple, repeated mistakes.

Among the most important causes:

Over- or under-watering: over-watering leads to root rot, while lack of water leads to plant dehydration.

Inappropriate lighting: placing the plant in an unsuitable lighting environment leads to gradual weakening.

Using poor-quality soil: poor soil prevents the plant from obtaining nutrients.

Neglecting maintenance: not caring for plants periodically leads to accumulated problems.
