I agree. And a big part of my problem is I grow soooooo many things. Far, far too many to remember care info for each. Yeah - I know keep a notebook. Or don't buy so many plants. I have tried and I lose them or just do not want to take all the time to keep info keyed in and updated. So I just wing it.
Tarev - the most frustrating thing to me is when a plant does not appear to have any insect, etc problem but it obviously is going down hill. You research it, give more (less) light, more (less) water and on and on. And it just keeps going down hill until it just kicks the bucket. And you scratch yer head and say WT? Why did it die? And 9 times in 10 for me, I never figure out why.
With orchids I have had some at the brink; e. g. no roots and I have brought them back. Long and arduous process (can take as long as a year). But good feeling knowing that Ah Hah! I did it.
