The problem is always to remember watering them. Ask the plants in our apartment

you know, the ones with a motion sensor that feature things like a dancing fish, dancing santa, dancing skeleton in an electric chair, etc. just record a message like "when was the last time you watered me?" to go off every time someone walks by. better yet, do it secretly and hide it so your roommates get slightly freaked out by the disembodied voice reminding them to water the plants
