# Hello! 🤠 New to plants and received 3 by mail yesterday. Didn’t know…

_Geplaatst door Cassy op 2025-06-02_

Hello! 🤠  
New to plants and received 3 by mail yesterday. Didn’t know to inspect/quarantine. I’m concerned the Peperomia Watermelon, and Peperomia Hope may have some kind of pest or mildew? Would it be too soon to treat with Captain Jack’s Neem Oil. Or should I do sticky traps for now and let them acclimate? I’m concerned for the Monstera as well. Any advice is appreciated!.(:

It’s ok to go ahead and treat your plants soon as you get them home. Just isolate the plants from all of your other ones for maybe a month before adding them.
