So would this be a good indicator for people that are not great about watering their houseplants?

Like oh the drama queen is fainting...guess I gotta water everything but the cactus and succulents.

Not every plant needs the same amount of wet, though.

I got a $5 soil moisture sensor (looks like a big thermometer) and it has been really great for this exact purpose. I know lazy people don't want another step to a chore, but for those who don't know when to water, it's great
