Pest problem! I don’t know what these pests are, I can’t seem to identify them. I’ve tried the classic home-made recipe of water and vinegar but no luck. I don’t want it add soil or fertiliser until it’s solved. Planta only allows me to upload photos, so I tried my best. I have. Great video of them crawling but I can’t post that unfortunately. But they look almost silver and oblong. I think they fly? I’m not sure. I usually see them crawling around the pot in the soil. Anyone who can identify them and help get rid of them, please advise!

Repotted the mother plant of my silver sword philo. I went from a nursery pot to an 8 inch pot. The soil is a mix of indoor, orchid and perlite. Since the repotting, all the leaves have curled in and it looks super sad. Plants says it’s under watered? Thoughts? TIA.

Just switched Miss Mitzi from a mostly-mulch soil to a more nutrient-rich fern fiber blend. I hope to see her perk up soon.

How would I propagate this? I had cutting that isn’t doing well. I planted in a well draping soil pearlite mix. There’s been no growth and 2 leaves fell. Any advices for propagating something like this?

Need help, Guys I follow some of the tips and today I noticed my finger leaf is having another yellow leaf.. i change the pot size. Any inputs??? ā€œPlantaā€ Dr. gave some tips, apparently I accidentally overwatered it. Took the plant out of the previous soil check for roots that were either rotten or starting to rot. I cut some of them clean the plant and I re-potted it with new soil on a pod that has great drainage and she is lightly wet not a lot. I didn’t let her soak in water , but still 1 yellow leave that you will see in the picture it’s dead I think so I need some tips of what should I do now that I repot the plant and 1 leave is pretty much done???

Hi guys - I'm a very new philodendron parent and trying to do the research, my sister is a plant momma so I've been asking her for a lot of advice as well but I'm starting to question some of that advice. She said they really like to be root-bound in small plastic pots, but I'm reading just the opposite - Larger clay or terracotta pots. My PPP is starting to yellow a bit too, I'm thinking she needs a new pot. Any other advice?
