Ok, so I’ve had this lemon tree for years (it’s from a seed that I planted 2018). During spring this year it started to look sad so I moved it outside in a “well off you go and take care of your self now, bye bye!”- manner thinking that it needed to decide if it wanted to live or not by it self. But it just wouldn’t die. It’s been out there during the Swedish “summer” and autumn, it even experienced some nights of - 2C° (28F°) recently. So today I moved it back indoors. Tomorrow it will get cleaned and looked over. Later I’ll trim it down a bit, change some of the soil (and remove some weeds 😅) and place it in a well lit spot (south facing window and a grow light since light isn’t a thing that we have too much of up here in the north during winter). But for now just some acclimation and rest 😊 Adding some pictures we (hopefully) can compare it too later 😅🤞

I’m trying to nurse this aloe back to health but I’m not exactly sure what it needs! Does it look like it has some kind of mold?

Hello friends! We lost some leaves but I’m going to try to keep this girl in soil. I’ve been remember to water more frequently lol so the remaining ones look okay. I am also going to start misting, I know there are mixed reviews but misting it might make it more fun lol. Some of the leaves are looking a little weird though. Any suggestions?? Wish us luck!

Hi, I was wondering why my spider plant has black/dark brown tips and the soil looks the way it does. How can I make it more healthy

Woohoo new group! I rescued this poor soul from a friend with a less green thumb around 2021. It’s almost unrecognizable now! Ready to go to a new home 🥰

This is the plant that inspired the recovery room group… now I’m looking at it like it is barely even bad just needs some pruning lol It was 50% off it was a steal!
