You must be careful how you cherish your plant. It needs fresh damp soil, without small sediments. They can damage the roots and lead to a less flourished flower. The tender roots will rip and the sacred bond between plant and gardener will tear. However, if the soil is too damp, other plants such as moss or mushrooms, will take advantage of your generously moist earth and squander in the wet paradise you have given them, before usurping your beloved plant.

If you plan on farming your plant, take note that this involves many difficult tactics to ensure it has reached its fullest length, before using the produce to its best ability. Supply a friendly support system such as a trellis or bamboo stick, so the trichomes can wrap their sticky, tender tentacles around them and enjoy the sunlight without fear of falling to the ground and decomposing. Make sure this is something you do not skimp on; use an iron trellis or premium-quality bamboo, farmed straight from the strongest bamboo forest in China. If such support is not presented to your plants, be prepared for the consequences to be represented in your end product, as your cucumbers or tomatoes may not be as plump or succulent as you’d prefer them to be.

It is recommended that you bring an ally into your bond. The worm is a well-known provider of fresh manure for your plants so they have the most fertile soil and grow the tallest. They assist you when you're away so your plant stays healthy. However, if kept in a small to medium pot, or on rare occasions, the soil, low quality worms will digest the roots of your plants without you knowing and once you realise, it will be too late, as the roots will be destroyed and you will have no chance of saving your plant.

You must be careful with how you treat your human. If you are harsh and rude, that will hurt your relationship and the foundation of your friendship will vanish. Alternatively, if you are very obedient and are an altruist, they may take advantage of your trust and drain you out of your generosity, before moving on to new companions - leaving your bond desolate.

If you would like your acquaintance to be at their fullest, it is imperative you supply a fixed foundation for your human to be their best. This can be done by encouraging them and supporting them, or if you happen to own your human, you can supply a good education and keep them well rounded, by helping them take part in and experience many activities. If this is something you skimp on, then the full potential of your human will not be achieved and it may result in you supporting them for much longer than expected.

It is suggested that you bring in another companion to support your human when you are unable to. These are temporary human supporters that ensure the standard of your relator is consistent. Yet you must be conscious how restricted you make their relationship because if you limit the bond between them, they will become frustrated and leave you for good. You should also be wary what accomplice you choose for them as there have been occasions where the accomplice will destroy the roots of you and your human, destroying memories and precious moments. As soon as you realise what has happened, it is impossible to save your relationship, and all you can do is watch your human be stolen away by your once trusted temporary companion. Your human is like a plant, you must cherish them and lavish them in the most reliable products or they could end up shrivelled and insignificant. Yet, before you make the bold decision on your purchase, you should just think, is it really worth having a human?
