Why Talking to Plants Helps Them Grow

Talking to your house plants actually works and here's why. When you speak,

you release carbon dioxide which plants absorb during photosynthesis. But there's more. The vibrations from

your voice can stimulate plant growth by encouraging cell movement. Studies show plants

exposed to sound waves grew faster than silent control groups. That spider plant

in your living room isn't just tolerating your one-sided conversations. It's literally feeding off them.

So next time someone catches you chatting with your ficus, you're not weird. You're just a really

dedicated plant parent using science.
