Brand new to plants. I repotted this in a ceramic pot with one hole for drainage. Water 1-2x/week. The leaves near the soil are dead, there is some new growth at the ends. My string of tears looks the exact same. What am I doing wrong? Edit to say: the soil in the Creepy Jenny is dry and the string of pearls is moist.

Mushrooms in garden bed A couple of weeks ago, I planted raised garden bed using the Hugelkultur method. Recently, small mushrooms have started growing in certain parts of the bed. Is this something to be concerned about, or can the mushrooms and my plants coexist in peace? If the mushrooms are a problem, how can I get rid of them?

Help!! My palm is in trouble and I don't know what to do. Anything know what this is? I've googled and can't get a clear answer. I even reached out a botanist on another app that was zero help.

Saved this money tree from Kroger in the clearance section, do you think I can revive it? What do you recommend for light/water. I have moved it into a bigger pot.

I have noticed tiny mushrooms growing in my succulent - I got the succulent from a supermarket so could it have got it from there? I have since removed the mushrooms and disposed and the dead leaves from the soil as you can see and washed my hands - is there anything i can do? is this bad? is there any health concerns?? (apologies for bad photos - they’re screenshots fromm a video)

I’ve had this succulent for more than two years now and a few months ago it was slowly losing its leaves until it became the size that it is now. The leaves that come off would be mushier than the other leaves and yellowish. Is it related to the white marks? Not sure if it’s due to over watering, but I took it out of its larger pot to see if it is root rot. I have another succulent that is doing very well so I’m confused why this one has been declining. Would very much appreciate any insight or advice! Thank you.

This randomly appeared at the base of my strawberry mint today. Was not there 24 hours ago. What is it???? Is it fungus/mold?? Can I treat it? The plant has already been sprayed with pesticide/fungicide so I am super confused by this.

Small leaf yellowed in just a few days, the bigger leaf seems to be yellowing. I repotted a few days ago and put her back in the same pot as her roots weren’t big enough to size up. Whats wrong with her 🥲

Hi all! I have read that I should cut the top of my fiddle leaf fig. Please look at pictures and see if it’s time and how to do it. Thanks!

My whale tail has turned completely orange and I don’t know what’s wrong. When I look online it gives me a million different answers for what might be happening. I try to make sure that I do not over water it at all. I did go a little too long in between watering this last time but it’s gotten worse since I watered. Any ideas? And is it salvageable?

Help! What is going on with my prayer plant? It's been doing great since I got it a couple of months ago and now this. I water it when it's almost in the red on the meter and I haven't changed its placement. I'm going to move it into the bathroom where I have my ferns for now. Any advice appreciated.

I was watching a friend's Kalanchoe for her and I just pulled off these leaves. Then gave the rest a good spray with a neem oil mix. What does it look like to you all? Scale?

I’m a new plant parent and I’ve been having trouble keeping this little one healthy. He’s suffered from sunburn, potential overwatering (I struggle determining proper portions) and turned pink from stress. I know I need to change the soil (it was a last ditch effort) but any tips would be amazing 😭😭

Hey everyone I’m a somewhat new plant mom.. I got this money tree that is so beautiful. I call him mojo jojo… he was such a big tree for his pot that I repotted him about 3 weeks ago. I took the rubber band off but now it looks like his peeling badly. I really hope I didn’t mess him up. Please help thank you
