5. **Myth: All Plants Need the Same Amount**
- Reality: Every plant has unique water requirements. Get to know your plant's preferences through observation.
6. **Myth: Always Water Wilting Plants**
- Reality: Check soil moisture before assuming wilting means dehydration. Adjust your watering strategy accordingly.
7. **Myth: Top Watering is Always Best Method**
