My calathea started browning, crisping, and yellow spotting. Even when there is a new leaf growing, it already starts to brown and crisp. Wondering what is causing it and how I can prevent this.

Why is my silver inch plant secreting this orange oily substance? The rest of the plant is normal and it’s only the end of one vine that has this oil. Thanks!

Is this sunburn? It sits in a south facing window because I thought it required full sun. If so what can I do to fix it or is it too far gone?

Does anyone know wha type of plant this is? Also i have noticed that the bigger leaves at the bottom keep dying and getting droopy. I was wondering if anyone knew why?

Hello! I recently inherited my grandmothers plants when she passed, and one of them was a beautiful hibiscus plant. When we were transporting it, it was healthy and alive but when transporting it, we were forced to take it out of the pot and wrap its roots in wet paper towels. When we got home and repotted it, all of the leaves it originally had died. Im scared we killed the plant in transportation, but I can’t tell if it’s just stressed from the move and will come back. What should I do?? Is the pot too big for this plant? It’s getting bright direct sunlight, which I don’t know if that’s good for this kind of plant either. Thank you so much!!

While I was watering my spider plant, I saw what looked like the shell of a bug. I was wondering if this is something to be worried about since my plant is kept inside. My plant has also been looking a bit ill, so if anyone knows what’s up that would be appreciated.

My fern is having issues and I can't figure out why. I've had him for over a year now, under a grow light. He bottom feeds regularly. But for about 3 months now the leaves closest to the roots started getting dry and turning brown. The ends of the shoots are still big leaves with bright green though. Any help or advice would be amazing!!

Hello, I’m very new to the plant community:) I got into plants about a year ago and have a lot to learn! I currently have five plants that all could use some help 😅 -7+ year old 🍃Golden Potho. 🍃I have recently repotted her because she was extremely root bound. She also had vine balding so I took Bobby pins and pint the nodes of the vine to the soil. -🍃1+ y/o Swiss cheese monstera🍃 I repotted her 4m ago and she’s has been giving me 2/3 new leafs every 1-2 weeks. -🍃Neon Potho 🍃 I got this one a month ago from Walmart and changed out the soil. (Help me save her ) -🍃4/5 + y/o Snake Plant🐍 🍃 I changed her soil a week ago.(((( I would add a photo but my post would only allow 4 and I’m not worried about her )))))) - 🍃Monstera🍃 i got her a week ago from Walmart, she had browning on her leafs and some yellow on her stems. She’s the one I’m most worried about and the least knowledgeable about. Please help me 😭 All of my plant are in plastic container that allow drainage, I try to remember to water every 2/3 weeks and I usually just use tap or bottled water ⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️MORE QUESTIONS I HAVE⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️ - should I use growing light ? And for how long? -Should I be using rain water over tap water ? And do I literally just collect rain water and save it when my plants need to be watered? - Should I get a humidifier? And how big should it be ? -What kind of mist should I use and how often? -I recently learned i should have waiting till Spring to repot everything.. did I F*** my plants up?? ✨🪴✨🪴Any advice and suggestions are welcomed and greatly appreciated!! ✨🪴✨🪴

What’s going on with my poinsettia? I’m not seeing any evidence of pests in the soil or on the leaves. What should I do to treat her? Should I trim the browning leaves?

The soil around my ginseng plant has turned copper/orange brown and I was wondering if this meant something was wrong with my plant and I should do something to fix it or if this was natural and I did not need to worry? The plant itself looks healthy otherwise but wanted to ask the group since I’m completely a plant novice 😅

What is the best way to treat her? I got her a few days ago and she looks good other than these two yellow leaves. Do I prune or should I wait a little for her to get adjusted to her new home? Is there a better solution.

I’ve been trying to figure this out but my Polka dot begonia has been continuously growing little shoots all over, however, right before they turn into a leaf they crumble like this one is doing here. Does anyone know why this is? The dead leaves also don’t fall off and kind of work as a cover for new growth. It’s so interesting UPDATE: I was worried about nothing as it turned red and now has polka dots 🤣 apparently that’s what it looks like before the leaves unfold?

Are any of these orchid roots saveable

The first peperomia is one I got a while back, but I just repotted a lost a lot of roots due to root rot and overwatering. The second one I got recently and repotted as it was very root bound. The first lost all of its flowering stems at the top. The second is starting to do the same 😢. Any ideas why they’re doing this???

I got a giant taro today, I was wondering. Is it normal that the leaves/stem are really dark? I impulsively bought it

What is happening with my Dracaena?😭

Hi, I have my elephant ear alocasia plant and she doesn’t seem to be doing good.. I think she might have mites that I’m currently treating with soapy water, rinse and dry, and then a little neem oil.. I checked for root rot but she’s healthy when it comes to that. Her roots are in great condition. Are her leaves turning like this because of the mites or is it something else?? She gets indirect lighting and I have a grow light for her in case she needs pick me ups I use a humidifier and like I said her roots are great. What’s happening??
