Plants got me sick???

[mikekokane]

im growing 3 indoor plants and recently got a real bad sinus infection i was thinking it could be the plants drying up the air in my room then at night it caused me 2 get a dry nasal passage and throat. could they actually dry the air up that much with the fan blowing and the plants soaking up the moisture in the air????

HIGHly doubt its your plants. I think your plants perspire more water than absorb through the leaves. If anything, they would have helped you I think...

It is a plant... so it's possible but, wouldn't it have to have pollen sacks or something like that?

Just my 2 cents, but i have allergy problems in the spring and fall every year, and i also grow a few plants in my closet in my room... more probable that something outside got you sick than your plants... also, clean your room (like your mom says) dust tears up the nasal passages! hope things get better man, peace!
