Scindapsus/semihydro experts - pls help! So I decided to do a big chop on my scindapsus bc it just wasn’t growing/looking the way I’d like (rly small growth, leaf curling mainly at the top, some yellowing)- so my plan was to put the rooted part of the plant in semihydro (pon) & I cut a majority of the vines to propagate bc I just haven’t had luck w/ soil when it comes to these guys. However, upon further inspection of the root system I’m not sure if the rooted part of the plant is worth saving (also considering a lot of the roots just broke right off and look to be almost a light yellow color & not white). So 1. Is it worth trying to repot? 2. Does anyone actually know what’s wrong w/ the root system…does this look like overwatering/underwatering…both?!😅 not sure if it’s rot, bc the roots weren’t mushy, they actually mostly look super dry - despite a good watering schedule. I just don’t know what I’m doing wrong w/ this guy and I rly wanna master it!

Is this sunburn or underwatering? or maybe a bit of both?

I think these are sunflower plants? I don’t know the seeds I got look like sunflowers but maybe not so large. So maybe these are mini/small sunflowers? Anyways it has been growing beautifully and fast since planted however now some of the leaves from the long stems have been wilting and even crunching into a ball and feeling crispy. How do I get water to those leaves? Do I need to cut some long stems? I don’t know what’s wrong 😭please help

Why are the leaves on my peace lily turning brown and the flowers either yellow or green?

I saw these strange little bugs on my sweet potato vines. Google Lens says they are zelus longipes aka milkweed assassin bug. Google is giving me different responses on if they're good for the plant /garden or not. Thoughts?

What's wrong with my poor blue star? 😭😭😭

I am in need of some help with my Pothos. For the first few years of his life he grew up in my office with tons of sun in a huge southern facing window, and I had no issues. He thrived. I left that job a few years ago and had to bring him home, and it's been a slow but steady struggle bus since. Every couple of months, he develops yellow leaves like in the picture. Always in the middle of a vine, while still putting out new growth at the end of the vines. I tried repotting him in a bigger pot (still maybe not big enough?), moving windows from a west facing window to a southern facing window, and finally putting him above a sink (still southern facing) so I remember to water him more frequently (a glass or two once a week or so). The pot does drain but it does have drainage catch attached (sorry, I don't actually know what that is called). Does anyone have any idea of how I can stop the yellowing?

Help! What can I do to get the browning of the leaves to stop??

This is what living in full Florida sunshine can do to you. Stay hydrated, my friends! 💦☀️ But seriously, the first picture is from 04/09 (6mo ago) & the next ones are from 09/24 (last week). I will confess to some negligence for a few weeks. Pair that with 90° weather with no rain, and here you go! The weirdest part though is that when I do try to water these, the soil is just about hydrophobic. Why is that? Are these even salvageable?

A squirrel dug up my ornamental sweet potato, Ipomoea! I have accepted this declaration of war!🤺 I’m not too mad. It gives me an excuse to buy another plant!😂 The local critters lost a lot of their food source both last year and this year. The 100°F heat wave of last summer and hurricane Beryl this year destroyed acorns, pine cones and palm seeds before they matured. Squirrels thrive on these and look for alternatives. Last year they dug out grub worms from lawns and gardens which is a good thing. Grubs leave destructive crop circles in the lawns. My sweet potato plant was going dormant preparing for next spring. It was easy target for a hungry squirrel.

Hi, I just recently got this succulent so I'm not sure if its a water/soil problem or stress from anything else. But if anyone could help me out with this because I am determined to keep this plant alive. It has brown spots on the leaves, like the one thats under the water droplets. if there's anyway to fix this, please let me know!

I've had this maranta plant for almost a year now. She has been living in a green house that averages about 85% humidity. There's grow lights in the greenhouse and I water her about every 11 days. She had been absolutely THRIVING. Putting out multiple big leaves a month, she was by far my most active plant. Then last week she took a nose dive. The leaves got all crusty and brown as if she were too dry, despite the humidity in the greenhouse. I'd been noticing the water not sinking right away when I watered her, so I thought maybe the soil had become hydrophobic. So I repotted her and transferred her from terra cotta to porcelain stoneware. It's been a few days and she still looks just kinda... meh. Has anyone ever experienced this?? Will she make a comeback?

Does anyone know what these white rings are on the bottom of my sweet pea leaves? I’ve pulled off the leaves with the rings. Based on my reading, it seems like powdery mildew is primarily on the top of leaves so not sure that’s it. Any tips for how to fix would be greatly appreciated!
