Look what I found 🙃 Took over an hour to get all of the cotton spots off of my strawberry plant, hoping I caught it quick enough. I sprayed some insecticide last night & will check to see how everything is doing when I’m home from work. Is there anything else I should do to help? I noticed some spots on other plants as well and need to work on those tonight. Thanks in advanced 🥲
So my Buddha’s Temple has some mealy bugs, no damage as I caught it early, but it’s proving hard to get rid of them due to all the nooks and crannies in the plant itself. Should I dunk it in alcohol solution and repot?
Lately my aloe has taken on a bit of a weird shape (leaves curving way down) and its leaves have gotten flat, especially toward the edges. In a couple places there are these really tough, round boluses in otherwise flat areas. The aloe has a baby that looks healthy though! It is about a metre (1.5?) from a huge south-facing window, but to keep it away from my cats it is positioned on a tall shelf (technically just above where the window is). Is it lack of sunlight? Overwatering? Underwatering? I just don’t want to take the wrong action and make the problem worse in the process. Thanks in advance!
Has anyone ever had a plant die or not so well when using cinnamon powder in plant soil? I sprinkled a bit on my plants soil but am now worried when watering her that it’ll do damage once it get down to the roots
Hey - is this Blueberry Rust? If so has anyone had any success treating it or is it too far gone? Ideally I’d like to avoid harsh chemicals.
Does anyone know what’s happening to my parlour palm, some of the leaf tips have turned white all of a sudden, should I be worried?
My Vanilla plant is turning brown and shriveling up from overwatering, should i cut off the rotted brown parts and let it try to shoot off a new stem?
Hi everyone! Today I managed to rescue this Monstera from a friend, but am a little unsure on how to help her 🤔 I think repotting is a definite must, but how can I help with the current leaves? Different websites say different things - some say overwatering and too much sunlight, whereas others say it could be a fungal infection? Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you!
Tomatillo stem was snapped over but not dislodged in anyway. Immediately tied it to a bamboo rod to hold it back up, what are the chances it recovers?
Not sure what’s going on with my succulent, first noticed the tips going brown, then started to see little black spots randomly placed all over the leaves. Decided to repot with some pebbles and more perlite and that’s when I discovered the bigger brown spots. These are all concentrated on the bottom of the lowest leaves. Planta suggested watering twice a week (she gets full sun and I live in the desert) but that still seems like too much so I’ve been watering and misting once a week at most. Last pic is right after repotting.
Dealing with spider mites that won’t go away please give me all your tips :( I wash with soap and bug spray them and they just come back!
