I just got this snake plant a 2 weeks ago and the edges were all green, and hearing that they don’t need much water. However, every week I pick up the pot feels very light. I’ve top watered the first time and bottom watered the second time. I checked the roots and there seems to be growth and it’s not mushy, but is this showing signs of thirst or too much water. I picked this one up from Lowe’s and it was drenched in water. Been giving it enough sun and room temp is around 70-72.
I have had mealybugs on my monstera Swiss chess for a few months. I sprayed it with diluted alcohol and repotted it with new soil. It still have them. What else can I do?? Please help
Help, rob was ok but now he is wilting . He is not dead
I repotted this last week and now I’m seeing mushrooms! Is this something to be concerned about?
Any ideas on how to save this string of hearts or is it to late ☹️☹️
So notice how the end of the Hoya went from green to light brown. I think it started to rot. So I cut off the brown part. Far enough back so I could see green. Maybe this is the reason why it wasn’t growing. Possibly bc a rot/fungal issue brewing? So I’ll keep an eye on it. And hopefully this possibly promotes new growth. Any thoughts on what the actual issue is/was? And did I do everything to prevent it from spreading?
Please help! I’ve had this plant for about a year started from a propagation from another pothos and not is suddenly not looking so great
Last attempt before I send her to the graveyard for good 🪦 🪴 😩 got this *former* beauty at plant bingo around Halloween. Been struggling to keep her happy (bright indirect light after I sunburned her, moved to bathroom with right light and more humidity) but she was very much living until a few days ago. Pruned back ~3 or so crunchy stems at the soil with sharp clean pruners. Now… this! Looks like it’s molding where I made the cuts. Can ANYTHING be done to save her? Pls help!! Pics of how it started and how it’s going 😭
I just got a new variegated Monstera plant, and the part of the leaf that is white was turning brown and yellow, and was dying off. So I assumed it was root rot, so I cut the part of the leaf off and I took the plant out of the pot. I found some nasty soil, and now I have it in water. Was that the right thing to do?
I have like half a dozen plants from Lowe's on discount, I know they were discounted because they were sick/dying but got them to see if I can save them. If anyone want to help see if I can actually save any of them?? I also have a pathos plant i got half off, some of her leaves are yellow and some of them are crispy so idk if she was over watered, underwatered or something else
Help please, Stapelia.. no environment changes what so ever. No pests. Water when dry. Under light 12 hours daily since day 1. Has been in a mix of bonsai jacks gritty mix 80%, coco coir 10%, worm castings 10%. I've had this baby since July and just now over the last 2 weeks its been turning yellow. I took it out of the pot today to check roots, they're beautiful! Like I said, no changes since day 1. The yellow parts are just as firm as the green. What is going on??
Help! I rescued this corn plant from Lowe’s (was on their discounted rack and very sick) last summer. Since the we’ve been through nursing back to health to bugs a few times. Now I see these brown spots beginning a few different leaves and I’m not sure what it is and how to treat. I was spraying with neem, once that was gone I started with peppermint and water (read that worked) and finally started with a systemic granular mix for all sorts of insects. Anything else I can try???
I have a couple plants that I use a treatment on (Neem oil, systemic insecticide etc) Is there a way to set up a schedule when you need to treat again?
help! i moved 2 weeks ago and the movers accidentally took my mini monstera into the truck, with -15° F wind chills outside. i removed the dead/rotting stuff ASAP but she's still losing all her leaves - do i prop what's left of the stem? 😥
This is my water and pray section lol. Small pots WERE caladiums lol. Front big pot is a flame violet that died but shows signs of hope and the big pot in back was also a caladium. Caladiums are my nemesis apparently. Well accept for 1.
Hii! my ivy isn’t doing too well at the moment and i’m not sure as to why. i normally have her in an area with moderate sunlight, but not too much. i also bottom water her once a week, which is what’s recommended. i’m not too sure as to why she’s drooping so much as she grew quite a lot over december. should i chop those drooping leaves, or is there anything else i can do for her?
Bought this lemon button fern and I'm not great at taking care ferns. Anybody know what can help it get better? It clearly needs help, but I don't know what kind.
Hello everyone, this is my 4-year old legend of a fiddle leaf fig. It’s been getting brown bits on its new leaves recently, and I think it’s because I moved houses around 3 months ago. It might be in shock, but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! ☺️
A couple months ago I had repotted my croton. Apparently she went into shock and lost all her leaves. I’ve continued to water and mist as the app recommends. I actually trimmed back the dead branches a couple weeks ago. Now I’ve just been waiting for any sign of life, well this morning I noticed these little green buds on the stem!! Could be hope she’s coming back?!
A while ago I bought a gardenia not realizing it was infested with thrips. Not knowing how serious the situation was and having no experience with infestations, I bought some bug spray that gets rid of thrips and expected them to go away within a day or two, and put the gardenia next to my other plants; although I did separate it a few times because I noticed some of the thrips on its flowers and took it down to spray it again. Only last night I had realized how much of a pain these bugs can be and I’m panicking not knowing what to do. I checked my other plants and everything seems fine except for my new satin pothos plant. 😥 I’m seeing 2 white marks that don’t like the normal silver marks it has, and I found a leaf with some odd holes in it. I believe I have reached the maximum amount of photos for this post and will try to add my satin pothos photos in the comments. What are the steps and things I need to do to get rid of these bugs, and should I be worried about my other plants? 1st photo: Photo of what I believe is a thrip 2nd and 3rd photo: Possibly damage from thrips? 4th photo: plant spray I’m currently using
