Carpet Care Tip: Water the plants, not the carpet. If you have indoor plants in your home along with carpeting, you'll want to make sure not to overwater them. Spilling an excessive amount of water and/or soil mixture from plants onto the carpet can create a number of problems, including unsightly spots, unpleasant odors, and even permanent staining. It's also a good idea to reconsider placing a potted plant directly on the carpet, as permanent rings can form on your carpeting.
