Rant: My sibling keeps messing with our apartment plant setup

My sibling and I share a small balcony for growing veggies. They always move my pots around without asking, and it's ruining the growth. How do I set boundaries without starting a fight?

Your sibling moving pots sounds familiar, mine does that with my herbs.

Wait, they move your herbs? @cole_patel14 nailed it with the consistency talk.

Yeah, that's super frustrating when someone doesn't get why plant placement matters. @nora767, it's wild how common this is, but it's more than just asking for permission. The real issue is they probably don't understand that moving a pot even a foot can totally change its light and mess up its growth. You gotta sit them down and explain it's like moving their stuff around in their room every day. A calm chat about how plants need consistency could help, without it turning into a big fight. Hopefully they'll listen if they see it from that angle.
