Hello! Wondering if anybody could tell what is up with my lemon tree? About a week ago I started noticing all the leaves are getting yellow spots. Thanks!

Does anybody know why this could be happening. I had one leaf turn yellow so I cut it off but now this is happening to the last two leaves. Should I repot it or what?

Help!! This is what my red banana leaf looks like today. She was home alone for a week and the water system I had set didn’t work. Do you think all the drooping levels are gone? Should I cut them or is there any chance they might come back? Not all but maybe the green ones? Thanks

I have a corn plant. Repotted a month ago which might have anything to do with it. But this is on a few of the leaves. Wondering if anyone could help me

Please help, my angel wing begonia has been losing healthy leaves and I don’t know why. They just pop off. I’ve been taking care of her according to planta, but she’s down to one leaf. Her stem looks healthy and no signs of bugs.

Definitely not happy no matter what I do. Down to one healthy leaf. I may just have to out him outside if this spot doesn't work. I repotted him and he threw a fit. Any tips? Im in S florida... too hot outside. He is currently in a west facing window NOT under the grow light because he hated that and killed the other two leaves.

Help! I've been watching my friends aloe for a few weeks and when i checked it this morning it's growing mushrooms?? I have only been watering it when it's dry and it gets part sun daily. Is it doomed? Should I remove it? help!

Hey everyone! Just a quick soil question! I know you’re not supposed to water a plant till it’s fully dry, but the soil in my snake plant and in my bird of paradise has not dried in over a month. I’m worried about root rot and overwatering, but I’m not sure what to do. Is there a preferred soil for certain plants? Or should I add rocks for drainage? Thanks in advance!

Hi should I cut this dying leaf off my alocasia? If so where..it’s on a main stem and it appears there is new growth on the same steam…also would I be able to do anything with the leaf?

Hi there I believe this is some sort of pothos plant. It was given to me and it has these wilted leaves. Do I need to cut these off? I believe the got burned from the sunlight. I just brought it into my house. I’d really appreciate advice on how to keep it from dying! TIA!

Hi all, I frequently have this problem where my soil in my houseplants will get these fuzzy white balls of mold or something in the soil. It’s really gross and I either remove it if it’s not too bad or completely change the soil when it happens. Does anyone know what this is or any ways to prevent it?

My asparagus firn is developing extreme cobwebs, I know this question seems wierd. Their all over the soil. We don’t have a spider problem, as it is kept on the counter inside the house away from windows. We do have gnats though, I’m not sure if that effects anything. Anyone know what they might be from, and how to keep them away? I move my plant once or twice every week, and yet… anything helps!
