I have had fungus gnats in my plants for a while now and ive been watering with mosquito bits for a month or teo now and the still wont go away. I also have sticky traps set up (which there are gnats on them) and have sprinkled cinnamon in my plants!! They are still there! I am wondering if I should switch to bottom watering the plants? I have not been doing that because i want to kill the larvae through watering normally with the mosquito stuff… tia :)
My Zebra plants are very leggy in the center. I think I need to change the soil to make for more drainage. Any other suggestions? Do you think they need more light? I have them in a NW facing window.
Help! My seedlings have mold on the pots! I need to determine if it’s safe for them or not! I touched it and it is harder to see now, but it was white and looked like hair coming off it
Can anyone tell me what’s going on with this calathea please? I bought it like this and I’m just hoping I can help it if it has an issue.
Hello all, my new hydrangea is not doing well. Since the leaves were droopy, I decided to water it again, but I think I may have watered it too much despite giving it a bath and letting the excess water drain away. Now it’s looking yellow and it has lost lots of leaves.. But I’m not sure if this is the problem… I was wondering if I should re-pot it… Or should I wait to see if this passes and repot it then? Thank you!
It’s a sad day for me, just noticed brown spots in tips and edges of my caladium angle wing. It’s been doing so well, no changes made in Location or watering, no bugs, any advice ??

My coleus is bleeding purple when I cut the main stem and it has been sick for a while now what should I do?
Y’all…. what are these on my roots?? I’m repotting my prayer plant…. she’s in very good health and reproduces new leaves all the time.
My birds nest fern is getting crispy edges. No new growth. Dying leaves. It's about time to repot- but is it even worth repotting at this point? It's kept slightly moist, filtered water, with a humidifier nearby that I turn on every so often.
So I just repotted my string of pearls into a better mix for it other than the nursery mix, some of the pearls seemed squishy and turning brown so I took those off and made sure the roots weren’t mushy. The soil was still pretty damp even though it was due for a watering tomorrow, should I water it now since it’s in new soil or let it search for a bit? Thank you!!
I recently bought this sweet pea bush and made the mistake of using a pot with no drainage holes. The leaves have been yellowing and wilting. Yesterday, I changed pots to one with drainage holes and added new soil. Do I need to water it after repotting or let it be for a few days? Wondering if there is anything else I can do to get it back on the right track
Before I put the support in, this cactus was continuing to lean back until it began folding on itself (see bends in picture one). I stopped watering, put an extra light on, and stood it up in hopes it recovers and the only change I have seen is the stems splitting. Is continuing not to water the best course of action or should I do something else? Thank you!
Mites? Got this plant on Christmas and only within the past week or two have these flies sprung up around. Is there a way to deal with them? This is happening on a rubber plant btw
Not sure what this mark is that just started here on my Monstera deliciosa? Any help on what to do? I just liquid fertilized my plant & water misted this week too. I have neem oil spray too. And I just repotted her too.It’s a very little spot now but any clue for what to do would be appreciated! This is my only plant. Please help!!
I also just noticed these bugs on my pink dragon alocasia babies. These plants are covered up with plastic for humidity reasons (see first picture). I went to mist them and noticed some things crawling… Please tell me they’re not thrips 🥲 They had a blue-ish appearance and were noticeable to the naked eye. If they are, they are the first sign of these bugs that I’ve noticed. Any advice for treating them??
Hi all, I’ve been having some issues with my spineless yucca. I’m thinking it may be a root rot issue but I repotted a while ago (~4 months ago) and it was doing fine until now. Any ideas on what could be going on?
