Hello! I need some assistance with my tomato plant. Shes been growing a month now and we got one tomato :D. However, I noticed that there aren’t other tomatoes growing from this plant and every time I see a bud (or flower) it dies within a day (as shown in the image). Is there anyway I can overcome this issue so I get more tomatoes? Is this normal? For reference, I water my plant every day and it gets good sunlight throughout the day. Gracias :)
My money tree doesn’t look happy. I live in Florida we are currently experiencing heavy downpour so I am unable to sit her outside and there is currently no sunlight. Any suggestions? (No bugs, fertilized seven days ago, not overwatered).
Help! I over watered my string of hearts about a week ago. her bigger leaves are all soft and wrinkly. 🥺 I repotted her into new dry soil yesterday but there was some roots that fell off the nodes and some nodes were squishy but I pruned them off. Will it make a full recovery? 🫣
help!! polka dot begonia hi everyone i just got this polka dot begonia a couple days ago and it seems to not be doing so hot. I’m not entirely sure what to do or what it needs. the plant has been repotted, it’s under a grow light, and has only been watered once. please give me your recommendations!!

Hey all! Unfortunately my new plants (sweet mint & rosemary) were bought infected with thrips. They’re not very big and don’t have a lot of growth, but I aggressively removed infected/damaged leaves anyway. I was advised that dish soap (dawn), neem oil, and hydrogen peroxide (3%) is a good mix for getting rid of these guys, and so far so good! I actually don’t have neem oil on hand, so it’s just dawn and hydrogen peroxide, but it seems to be doing the trick. My next spray mixture will have neem oil in it, I was just desperately trying to get a head of these pests because it seemed like they did a lot of damage just over night. My partner and I can’t see many, if any, adults left on the plants as I’ve been misting them 1-2 times a day and physically wiping off areas that seemed like hotspots. I’ve also been misting the soil with the mix just in case there’s eggs/larva. Anyway, is there anything else I could be or should be doing? What about prevention for the future? I’m worried that they might die because I bought and repotted them 6 days ago, so they’ve already been through a lot of stress. The sweet mint was literally growing like a weed for the first 3 days before I noticed the damage on the leaves. But it felt like a trade off between constant damage over time from thrips, or a bit of damage/stress from treatment and leaf removal to get rid of them quickly and letting the plant heal after. I read eggs/larva can get into the soil so that protects them from the mix, so that’s why I’ve continued to mist them at least once a day to keep those from turning into more breeding adults. When would I repot these guys to give them fresh, pest free soil, or is repotting not necessary if all of the thrips are dead? Would I rinse off/soak the roots in water as well? I’d be worried about breakage since they have thin roots, but I repotted them with the soil they came with + adding well draining soil in the surrounding areas since these pots are bigger than what they were in, so I’m wondering about how deep thrip infestation can be. Thank you all!
Hello, please help me to understand what are these small white dots on my plants
We noticed that the leaves of our bird of paradise are starting to curl. Any idea why that might be? We water it every 10 days, it’s 5 feet away from a very large East-facing window. Any tips appeciated!
I have been dealing with aphids on my indoor flowering plants, I’ve tried showering them and using different sprays without success. Curious if anyone has successfully used live ladybugs for aphid control?
Just got this from my Mom… what IS THAT???
Hi all, I have fungus gnats. I’ve been using mosquito bit tea to get rid of them and it is slowly working. But I have a few questions about it. Can I add my liquid fertilizer to my tea? I use Superthrive. My plants haven’t been “fed” in a month. Also, is it safe to touch the bits or even the dunks with my hands? I threw in a pic of some of my plants just cause.
My baby is sick and I don’t know what else to do. I repotted it three weeks ago because the edges of some leaves were getting dry and leaves were drooping. I put it then in a terracotta pot with drainage. I still see more leaves drying up so I tried bottom watering but with the terracotta it was spewing soil from the 1in diameter hole in the bottom of the pot. I watered from the top some too. Then left it til the soil was dry. Today, I noticed these brown spots on the leaves. I repotted to a plastic clear pot with drainage to see the roots and continued to bottom water. What do you suggest I do from here? It’s got three new furling leaves at least but I don’t want to further damage the foliage. Help please. Thanks in advance
Heya Plant people! My Polka Dot plant is having issues as the leaves are curling inward, the leaves feel off, fuzz along the base and browning of some kind. Any advice on how I can help Spot grow normally/become healthy?
Hey earthlings!! My golden pothos is looking very limp.. just gave him a thorough watering(soil was quite dry) and so I’m hoping he perks up soon! I don’t know if it’s a common pothos thing but he also has some browness on his stems.. any ideas what that is? Thanks in advance!!
What’s happening to my spider plants? They’re both growing at a fast rate (my baby is no longer a baby anymore! He’s catching up to his sister in size!) but they both have just a couple leaves with these brown markings? As well as brown tips? I don’t think it’s anything to do with watering as I’ve been keeping good track of it, the only thing I can think of is sunburn? As they’re both in a south facing window with direct sunlight and this has only happened over the last day or so (when we’ve had a bit more sunshine) so I’m thinking it’s that? Should I just move them to a less direct place and see if that helps? Any advice welcome:)
In a beginner with taking care of flowers and plants and these are my hyacinth I’ve been trying to keep alive. I’ve been watering them every other day but they still dying; does anyone know what I can do 😅
Hi all, I think my croton on fire is sick. It has all these black spots on the leaves and when I rub the leaves they come off. Can anyone tell me what it is and how to treat it?

What are the brown spots on this jade plant? I was able to scrape it off with my fingernail and it turned powdery.
