How do I rid of gnats in my plants without killing the plants 😢

Kate

Hi everyone! My snake plant lives in my salon (tons of windows, indirect sun from about 10am-6pm every day and watering once a week and has lived in this spot for a year with 0 issues) I returned to work from a weekend away and noticed some of the big pieces had what I’m assuming is root rot, and had fallen out of the pot onto the floor. Please help me salvage what is left of her! These are photos from last week vs. today

First time trying to propagate a fiddle leaf fig from cuttings given by a friend. Some of these roots look reddish. Is that root rot? Or is this a normal color for these plants?

Hi! Just got this plant back from a friend who watched it over the summer. Not sure what is wrong with it and would love any help! It is a bird nest fern

the bottom leaves of my kalanchoe have been falling off slowly over the past few months. I wait to water until the leaves are not as firm, and then always check to make sure the soil is completely dry. it sits in an east facing window. any idea what might be happening?

So I’ve had this “dumb cane” plant for about 9 months now. When I first got it, it was thriving and didn’t want to stop growing. It grew so big that one day I decided to repot it since it was growing so big and healthy. Well this turned out to be my big healthy plants demise. Immediately after the repotting it shed half its leaves (15 leaves in total). You can see this now as the bottom half of the plant is bare now with dead stem marks all over it. Months pass it’s still not doing well, leaves that used to shoot out and open in a single day or two are now taking a week or more to open. Lately it’s been doing ok the leaves that are there are mostly green, but there’s still leaves dying and the new ones are opening very slowly. But now today I notice there’s now what appears to be mushrooms growing out of the soil!!!! Im not sure what to do and it kinda of grosses me out. Should I finally give up on this once super healthy plant? I feel that it will never look like it once did. You can see the drastic difference from when it was healthy in its old pot, to today.

What are these little white spots all over my mother of 1000? Does anyone know? They don't seem to be moving and they don't look like mealy bugs. I think I'm going to do the alcohol and Q-tip thing anyway.

Bird's Nest Fern is growing big but started developing brown spots on leaves. Any advice? I've had her about 6 months, 3-6 inches under a grow light. She's in a 4" drainage pot with coco coir based substrate. Watering according to Planta, but thinking it might be too much,roughly once a week.

Moved this bad boy outside and it has been rehabilitating so much better but this new sprout is a weed right? Just double checking before I yank it out

Are these roots healthy? It looks off to me and on the bottom the root seems fuzzy as if there’s mold on it. I rinsed off all the soil and cleaned it really good and repotted her into a bigger pot Edit: oh and these were a bunch of little round things all in the soil, you should be able to see it in the pictures

Mealy bugs again! Different plant this time and this one wasn't anywhere near the one that had it last time. I guess they're just going to be the bane of my existence. Lol. At least I thankfully have a lot of success with getting rid of them and an extra bathroom for quarantine. Lol

I seem to have mealy bugs on my fairy washboard succulent but I can’t really see them or get to them because the leaves are compact and aren’t flexible… Any tips on how to deal with it and where to put it for the time being?

Any thought on what could be causing this dark spot on my moonlight philodendron? This started appearing after I moved the plant from a window to under a plant lamp, but I don’t know if that has anything to do with the issue. Thanks!

Help🥲 this is my moms bonsai tree and we don’t know what to do/whats wrong with it. A couple weeks ago we got back from being out of town and it looked like this, since then we’ve refreshed the soil, watered it, put down fresh moss and then left it alone. Any thoughts? It’s in a northeast facing window and gets pretty bright indirect light for the majority of the day.

Please help? The little holes have been there since I got this guy about 3 months ago. But this one leaf is turning colors. Do I cut off the dead piece or is it really dead? Anything I can do?
