HELP! My new apoballis (had him about 2 weeks) has suddenly become super droopy! It initially started about a week ago with leaves curling so I let him dry out a little extra before watering. Yesterday he collapsed! He’s in bright indirect light, chopstick method for watering. Only thing I can think of is lack of humidity in my room, could that be the cause?

Just saved this Ocean spider plant from the garden centre and was wondering if anyone knows what I could do to whip it back into shape? Wasn't sure if it was a case of over watering or just neglect

Hi guys! I just adopted a jade plant and was worried about this little leaf. Should I cut it off or will it fall off on its own?

I just got a new plant from meijer after my old one died due to dryness (I wasn’t home for a week and my brother turned the heat up way too high), and I got a corn plant (not literally), and when I went to repot it due to overgrowth of the roots, I noticed orange roots, but the plant is thriving. Does anyone know why the roots are orange? And how I can help it?
Thank you

What’s everybody’s spider mite remedies? I picked up a pothos from Walmart that I should have isolated 🤦🏼♀️ also how far do they usually spread? I have a few plants in a hall with said pothos so I’ll probably treat them as well but just wondering if I should be doing all my plants. Thankfully it’s nothing major yet and only very small amount of webbing but enough to catch my eye today.

Hello! I recently got this beautiful hydrangea and it’s been growing new blooms and looking good for the first few days but then it started getting dry brown edges on the leaves and little brown spots one the Flowers. so I thought it might be from under watering or being root bound so I got it repotted into a bigger pot with some new/better potting mix and fertilized it at the same time. But the problems have only gotten worse? I honestly don’t know what is causing it only other thing I can think of is lack of light? But I don’t think so. If anyone has any suggestions or advice I’d appreciate it :)

anyone know what could be causing these brown spots? they are scattered over my birds nest fern. some are on the end of leaves and some are on the middle. at first, i thought it was due to too much light so moved her but can’t tell if it made a difference- will these spots go away? thanks!

Aloe Vera question:
Note: I used filtered water (like all my other plants), & these two are about 3/4’ away from an east facing window.
My old(er) aloe is very pale & leggy (unlike this new deeper green one that was gifted to me). I don’t know what to do to avoid the same fate for my new aloe/how to liven up my old one. I’ve tried different lighting situations… & more sun always seems to have an adverse effect on the aloe. I’m trying stimulating wind (wiggling leaves, etc) to try to strengthen the leggy one, & I have just started to prune off old leaves.
Any suggestions, tips, or tricks?

It’s 2 small pots inside that orange pit and they all have drainage holes

I’m fairly new to plant care, this is my first time repotting a plant with problems in the soil. What exactly am I looking at, how do I treat it?

UPDATE: it’s doing well now! I changed the soil to a chunkier soil and gave it a good watering. Thanks for all of the help!

Hi! I planted these geranium flowers + 3 more on the other side of my driveway about a week ago & the leaves are looking yellow-ish and not healthy. I’ve watered 3 times a week. Any advice? Is it just from moving them from the nursery plastic pots to the ground?
