Scale or scar? Is this some kind of scale/pest or just a scar on the underside of my diffenbachia plant. Pictures are top and backside of the same leaf

Any ideas? Stunted growth and dropped all the bottoms leaves pretty quick, yellowed but not too crispy. Root rot?

My prayer plant has been under the weather recently - was fine and then had sticky leaves and now drooping. No sign of webs or mites. Any advice welcome thanks

Plant doctor asap, I picked up this lavender today on sale and was wondering if it’s still alive and able to be saved? (Indoors)

My golden pathos has had some problems ever since I switched its pot. It’s made of porcelain and the bottom does not come off, but I can easily dump the water out when there’s buildup at the bottom. This plant was in a basket with no drainage and once I switched over to this pot leafs started turning yellow and I’ve lost about seven so far. It’s about 2 feet away from one window and 12 feet away from the other window so it has a mid range of lighting, not too much not too little. I need HELP on what to do!!

What’s wrong with my left (first photo) and right (second photo) cactus? It’s getting soft and wet. I had one die before from this same problem :( and I’d love to save this one.

Found this poor baby dying in one of my classes today, and my instructor allowed me to adopt / rescue it. I have no idea what kind plant this is based on the state it’s in. I’m probably asking for a lot but could anyone possibly identify what type of plant this is? My instructor said it was some type of succulent but has no idea the name of it. I don’t even know if it’s possible to save it at the current state it’s in or if I should cut it and hope it will regrow into something better. What is y’all’s advice for saving this little guy?

Hello! Can anyone help identify the issue with this Philo McDowell? It had been doing great, 3 weeks ago I came back from 10 day vacation and saw some very minor spider mites, which I treated and have not seen again but the leaves have these spots on them. Looked at under a magnifying glass and they aren’t moving like an insect or anything. One leaf has some damage and an almost an iredescent look. Thank you!

I just got this variegated peperomia Cupid from an online nursery and it came with all these brown spots on the leaves, I cannot find a definitive answer if this is a fungal infection or overwatered leaf damage? I would say it’s on about 75% of the leaves. I’ve been keeping it away from all other plants just incase. It doesn’t seem to be getting worse, and the plant is growing new leaves too. I’m hoping someone can shed some light on what’s happening. Thank you!!

My Nanouk Tradescantia has crispy brown edges, some worse than others. I water once soil is about 60-80% dry and gets bright indirect light. Any idea what is happening? Perhaps low humidity or under-watering?

Does anyone know what these little black/brown spots are on my ring of fire? This is a fairly new leaf and I looked at this plant yesterday and did not see the spots. It looks like this is the only leaf with them.

My baby looks unwell. I left him with my mom at her place since I had to leave for England for a month and this is how bad they’ve gotten. My mom is moving so for staging she put them outside in the on-and-off heat and rain. Never tending to them or leaving them inside, where they prospered. Any ideas of what I should do, I want to revive them, he’s like my baby I saw grow from the smallest of leaves when he was given to me. I don’t want him to die off. Please contrast what he was before when I left him to now.

Now im not sure what’s going on. I placed it by a window 2 days ago to see if it needs sun but I’m sad :( all help appreciated!

Can anyone help me identify what pest is effecting my leaves of my alocasia zebrina? I have Trypophobia so I am very worried about googling and finding something that distresses me. Any advice on what I can do? Many thanks 😁

I got this mint plant two weeks ago and I have replanted it twice in miracle grow with proper drainage water regularly, and enough sun. It was originally grown in an aqua garden, so I don’t know if I shocked the plant. It still isn’t coming out of it though. Any ideas?
