Does my red maranta / prayer plant need to be replanted? Iâve had it since April when I planted it in this 6â pot. But, now it is kind of droopy .

Please help đ„ș Iâm trying to figure out what kind of pest I am dealing with. The creepy crawler started off on one plant and now a few weeks later they are on SEVERAL of my plants. I have over a hundred and starting to panic. Iâve tried been oil, soap sprays, soap dunks, rubbing alcohol wipe downs and spray, cinnamon/neem/peppermint spray. Iâve water with neem oil and peroxide. The bugs are hard to explain bc they are so hard for me to see. They are TINY. They look white/yellow. There is no webbing or clustering of them. They just crawl⊠all over, mostly on the edge of the leaves. Iâm not finding much plant damage (yet). It doesnât look like they have wings and seem to wipe off easily but come right back the next day. I have videos of them crawling if that may be if any help.

Do cut the leaves off with the spots? Dr. Planta person said to âflush the potâ for a few months. I sized her down a pot, and that helped some. Just not sure about the spots. Also, when you flush the pot, does that mean with distilled or rain water?

I Just planted 4 new plants in 5 gallon buckets. My yellow bell peppers donât seem to be doing well though. We planted them on Saturday into a cow manure and compost mix, added a little food and watered them. And now the leaves are all flimsy and feel soft and rubbery. I read it could be from too much water so I have been trying to let them dry out a little. But it rained last night. After dark around 11pm I got home from work and checked it and they felt normal and this morning I woke up and they feel rubbery like and flimsy again. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am very new to this. Thank you

hi!! very new plant mom here. got this felt bush about 3 months ago at a festival and have a hard time taking care of it since, so many of its leaves have fallen ill with black spot and iâve had to snip. the second pic is when i got him, the first pic is from a month ago, and the third pic is from today. the original pot broke recently and iâve had to rehouse it into a new pot but is very droopy and iâm not exactly sure where to start when trying to bring him back to his former glory and a better one :(

HELP!!! Today I went to repot my oldest plant and watched a YouTube video to help me. Following the video, I completely washed it and studied the roots. As I was doing so I noticed that the roots look extremely weak, I have inserted a picture to help me describe it. Are they still alive and healthy? Should I keep doing what Iâm doing? WHAT IS HAPPENING AND WHAT SHOULD I DO?? #newplantmom #helpme

I have a dwarf umbrella plant, the leaves keep dropping and falling off. How can I bring it back to life? Itâs usually in my bedroom that has a north facing window, i moved it out to the hall for it to get more light but it doesnât seem to be improving.

I have leaf damage on my sweet potato vine, Ipomoea âAce of Spades.â It came that way when I bought it. Looks puckered. Then, the small leaf veins dry out around the puckered/embossed areas. The leaf cracks at those sites. Looks like itâs disintegrating. No apparent insect chew holes or leaf miners found. No insects found. I inspect every single leaf and quarantine new plants 30 days. No other issues on this plant. I propagated several small pieces. New growth looks fine on both the cuttings and at the mother plant. Any ideas? Background: Iâm in Zone 9. Got it two weeks ago from the grocery store (delivery). I thought it was heat stress from the 100°+F temperatures here in the South causing the cracked dry leaf veins. But, no dry leaf tips, yellowing or wilting were seen. No bugs. So, I did not return it to the store. The soil was very dry when it arrived and retains water about 5 days before completely drying out. I use a moisture meter. I typically water every 2 -3 days in this heat. Itâs kept outside on a covered patio. It gets morning light until noon. Gets bright indirect light after noon. I have not fertilized it the 2 weeks I had it.

Please help! My cat Palm is looking very sad! (The third picture is what it looked like a month ago). It had mites on it a couple weeks ago so I washed all the leaves with water then sprayed neam oil. Then again recently I noticed even more mites so I washed it with water and put neam oil again.

Help for Pete! My husband repotted our Cat Palm and heâs gone downhill since. Weâve tried watering more, less, taking him outside for more humidity and direct sun but he seems to be getting worse. He does have one green shoot but it flops over. Any thoughts on how to help Pete?

someone please help! đ i still cant figure out whatâs wrong with my white butterfly arrowhead plant! i repotted her, because she started to fall apart in a pot that was too big, and i needed to give her some support with a smaller pot. after i did this though, she wilted! the bottom leaves are the most affected :( the roots looked perfectly fine when i transplanted her, and sheâs been watered (still no perking up after 2 days) any help would be greatly appreciated!!! (first pic was the day i transplanted her)

Is there anything I can do to revive this plant? I went away on vacation for a week and I made sure to water before I left. When I came back all were okay except for this one. Is there anyway I can revive it :( ? Itâs a Schefflera I believe. Any help would be appreciated.
