You could spray your plants with bitter bite...get it from most pet shops...it tastes yuck. The chewing thing gets better as cats mature & get to munch plants outside. Sadly cats don't always have the sense to know what is poisonous, the less obvious poisonous houseplants that I know of are, poinsettia,oleander &diffenbachia.
I got my male cat neutered at around 6 months and what a difference that made. He was in less fights and didn't wail at other cats.
I remember when he was a wee kitten I'd be watching TV then all of a sudden he'd be clawing his way up my curtains. He also used to scratch our settee - what a time we had.
Buy some Catnip from your local petshop and watch your kitten go wild for it - It may also distract him from chewing your plants.
Best of luck
yep mine were done at around 6 months too.
you could also try bringing in some turf with grass and showing him he's allowed to chew that but not the other plants - mine got the hang of the fact that they're allowed to scratch the scratching post and not the furniture (well, most of the time) so it could work.
