Anyone know what’s happening to our parlor palm Hershel? He’s in bright indirect sunlight, gets misted occasionally and watered when the top inch of soil is dry. I did have him in sunlight for a bit but then moved him as his leaves are losing the green colour and the tips going brown
Are these leaves just gonna die or what am I doing wrong? 🥲 I have it planted in a Aroid soil with some nutrients and it’s in the sun but not too much and it’s watered good and it’s draining. I’m scared she gonna die.
I accidentally left my fiddle leaf fig out in the sun and it has som pretty major sunburn just wondering if there is anything I cans do to fix it and if I should prune?
I’m wanting to expand my collection of plants I have 40+ but mostly the same types i did just get this rubber plant though curious About what type of variegation it is and would love some tips

My vinis fly trap is getting black, what should I do?
hi all! I got her a couple weeks ago and her leaves have been slowly turning crusty. Shes in full peat moss from the nursery and I don’t want to disturb her roots by changing it out. She’s under a plant light for 12 hours, should I move her? Is it too bright of light? Shes making me sad and I don’t know if I should just chop her and let her regrow
All my plants have fungus gnats :( anyone have any tips or product recommendations for dealing with them? I have a Zevo blue light bug trap near them but it doesn’t seem to be doing much.
What can I do to make my dieffenbachia crocodile plant “fuller” looking and not so leggy? The leaves are curled too and I wasn’t sure if I could help him in any way with that too. He sprouted 3 new leaves since buying it about 6 months ago.
Hi all, I’m an extreme newbie and got a calathea *sigh* because the leaves are pretty and they are non-toxic to cats. It is potted without a nursery pot, but the pot itself has one drainage hole. Not sure the soil type as it’s whatever the nursery had at their DIY plant bar. We put rocks at the bottom first and then soil. I first waited a full week to water it and my plant looked in distress and the soil was bone dry. I used tap water the first time. Then I checked the soil everyday after and watered after 4 days when I noticed the soil was dry but not bone dry (using distilled water this time). I added a humidifier running 4-8 hours at night near the plant and just moved it to a spot with better light (it was darker before). Planta is also telling me it’s overwatered?? Feeling a bit overwhelmed and not sure if I need to repot the whole thing when I just potted it recently? Worried it will stress the plant even more and how bad it is right now 😭
I got this soil for my plants a while ago, I noticed my peace lily has millipedes from moisture. Is it because i changed the soil into this? I thought it supposed to help with the moisture. What kinds of soil should i get? Or should i just repot it into this soil again and make sure not to overwater?
I water these plants once a week since I’ve had them. Since last fall, leaves are turning brown. I tried watering less but no change. I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong.
What’s up everybody. Funny story, I just found this aloe plant in a dark and dusty corner of my room, forgotten for years. I’m talking 4 years minimum, this poor thing has been without a DROP of water or proper sunlight. I literally had to sweep a layer of dust off of the leaves. Since it’s still surprisingly green and the leaves still have moisture inside, I’m thinking it’s still saveable. I repotted it in some healthy new soil but have yet to water it because I’m not sure how much I should water it after such a long period of drought. Some of the leaves are slightly brown and squishy at the ends. Should I trim all the browning parts off or leave them? Okay, thank you to anybody who read this. Any advice on how I should go about watering and healing this plant would be very much appreciated. :)
Before going on a week long vacation, I changed the soil from a dense potting mix to a chunky mix consisting of charcoal, perlight, coco husk, and all purpose potting soil. I came back to the leaves Yellowing like this. Is the Yellowing from transplant shock or under/ over watering. I also moved it alot further from my grow light because I noticed the ends starting to burn. Any help would be extremely helpful. I got this plant for $30 because Walmart had it labeled wrong. Should I cut around the brown spots, remove the leafs entirely or let them be?
Hi guys n gals. Can anyone tell me what is happening here. AI says lots of things but I value your opinions. Taken from a healthy looking geranium in a pot, soil looks ok & usual watering application. TIA.
My prayer plant is starting to look at little sad. I think it may be because my pot isn’t draining enough? The soil is still moist a few days after the last water, and it has been hot where I am. It is the kind of pot with the drainage plate attached. Does anyone have any pointers for me? Very new to plant care
I took a risk with my mom’s stagnant pothos, and I’m worried I’ve ruined it. I learned the plant was about 7 years old but hadn’t grown much. It was mostly a few stems each 2-3 feet long that were wrapped around a pole with 2-5 leaves on the ends. I took a bunch of cuttings to prop them, and they are doing great! But the original plant, not so much. All of the roots looked good, so I repotted it then trimmed down the leggy stems and buried them back into the soil hoping the nodes would root. It looked fine for a while, but now the leaves that were left are turning color or getting black spots. I’m relatively new to the plant world, so it wouldn’t surprise me if I’ve done something wrong. Maybe the pot is too big so it’s staying too damp too long? I don’t see any signs of pests. I have it in a room with lots of light during the day and a bit of direct sun in the evening. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
This browning on my Thai Con started just this week… I haven’t changed up her watering. I water her once a week but USUALLY I try to go with bottom watering (is that not enough?) She has a grow light in front of her for 12-13 hrs a day and I just added a grow light above her again for 12 hours. She has a humidifier nearby and it’s consistently between 50-60% humidity……. Any ideas? Is this common because of the white coloring on the leaf?
Any advice on how to get rid of spider mites? I know of neem oil but does it have to be diluted and how often do I spray it? Or any other products I could try too?
Hello! I’m very new to plants and have started growing an avocado from seed. It seemed to be doing well, but recently while repotting my mango, I decided to check and repot the avocado as well. Looking back, I think I may have repotted the avocado too early before it developed a stronger root system, and I also didn’t think to cut it back to encourage better growth. Here in Australia we’re about to enter winter, so I was wondering if there’s anything I should do now or if it would be better to just wait until spring? Also, my mango has a healthy stem and leaves but a small/weak root system. I’d heard that better-draining soil is better for them, so I changed it from a moisture-retaining seed starter mix to a blend of: the original seed starter mix all-purpose potting soil a small amount of cactus soil for drainage I also moved it into a slightly larger pot. Was that the right thing to do, or is there anything else I could do to help it? (Sorry for the bad root photos, I was repotting in the dark 😅) Thank you in advance. :)
