I rotate most of my plants because I do not want them leaning, but I saw someone say not to rotate climbing plants because the leaves keep reorienting and waste energy.
My pothos and philodendrons seem fine either way. My monstera gets annoyed when I move it, or maybe I am imagining that. My rubber plant definitely leans if I ignore it.
Do you rotate everything, nothing, or only certain plants?

I rotate bushy plants lightly, maybe a quarter turn every week or two. For climbing plants on support, I rotate less because I want the front and support relationship to stay stable.

If a plant is attached to a pole or plank, constant rotation can make the petioles twist around. I aim the support where I want the plant to grow and leave it mostly alone.

Rubber plants, jade, and small tabletop plants get rotated in my house. Big climbing plants do not unless they are leaning badly.

Plants do not need us spinning them like display items. Rotate when it solves a problem. If the plant looks good, let it grow.

Grow lights change this too. If the light is overhead and even, rotation matters less. Window light from one side makes leaning more obvious.

Small consistent changes are better than big random ones. If you rotate, do it gently and watch how the plant responds over a few weeks.
