If your sinks are plugged, use 1/2 cup of baking soda and and 1/2 cup of white vinegar. Once you've poured that into drain opening, put the drain cover or plug back in so the mixture doesn't come back up into the basin due to the chemical reaction. Wait 15 minutes for the chemical reaction to break up the solids blocking the drain, then remove the drain plug and flush out the drain with hot water. This is a cheaper and safer alternative to Liquid Plumber or Draino. I know this because I killed my spider plant by accident when it took in the potent fumes. The baking soda and vinegar fumes won't kill your plant, and does as good a job clearing drains as anything else on the market.
