"Hi. It’s me. Stanley.
I look tough. I scream in legends.
But drown me, and I will absolutely perish like a dramatic Victorian poet.”
Here’s the thing.
My roots like moist, not swimming lessons.
When you overwater, the soil turns into a soggy mess, air disappears, and roots start gasping like,
“Why is it wet again. We just talked about this.”
Overwatering leads to:
Root rot (which is exactly as gross as it sounds)
Yellow, sulky leaves
A plant that looks fine one day and collapses the next out of pure betrayal
Stanley prefers:
Water, then time to dry
Soil that drains well
You checking the dirt before pouring like you’re filling a bathtub
So please.
From Stanley.
Don’t overwater.
And yes — this goes for any herbs 🌿
Plants don’t hate water.
They just hate being smothered.
