How to Wash Plants?

For plants with many small leaves, spray them with lukewarm water or tip the plant upside down (use crumpled paper or aluminum foil to protect the soil) and swish it through a tub of water. You can add a few drops of mild liquid dishwashing soap

How often should you wash plants?

When to clean...

Cleaning your plant leaves is so straightforward and can be added to your weekly (or biweekly) house cleaning schedule. If you have a lot of plants and that seems like a longer task or if your plate is already maxed out on cleaning day, then just dedicate one plant per day to clean.

What is the easiest way to clean plant leaves?

There are two ways to do this: you can either dip a soft cloth in a soap/water solution and wipe the leaves carefully, or lather your hands with soap/water and gently apply it to the plant. Either way, be sure to clean both the top and bottom of the leaves, because it will also help to remove pests like spider mites.
