Not sure what’s going on here with the browning of leaves - too much water too little water or Mo direct sunlight? It’s in the hallway or an office with no windows. The lights are on all day however not on the weekends. I tried to water once a week. Any help appreciated!
Something or someone is attacking my plants. Two different balconies but look like similar issues.
HELP! My alocasia frydek has grown a new leaf and already killed two. Now this one is yellowing and curling what can i do
Hoya Kerri turning yellow? Looking sad. This one has been doing well for about a year now and suddenly has started looking bad. The leaves are turning yellow and the little connection between the bottom leaves it's squishy? I don't understand why because I let the plant dry out between watering. It's hard for me tk tell the difference between overwatering sad and under watering sad! Help! How do I save her?
My plant is dying and idk what’s wrong..I’m gonna get a shallower pot because I heard Thats best but other than that idk
Hey, my plant has browning/crispy tips and one of the leaves even has a hole in. when I got the plant there was already a couple leaves with browning tips. I think this is because of our high mineral well water I’ve been very careful with watering, it’s a well draining cactus mix. I have a mister that I use every other day. I’m trying to figure out if I should pull these leaves off or if I should prune them or something I don’t know what I should do. Btw this is my first plant I ever got and I’m still learning so don’t get mad at me😅
This thing (polka dot plant) has me stumped. The middle piece grows fast and stands tall but looks leggy. The light is right above it, about 1-2” above the tallest part of the plant and every other day I have to move the light further up because the plant has grown enough to touch it. The lower parts of the plant trail out like vines with only a few being able to stand up. I got it as a tiny plant and it stayed reasonably small until I repotted it and gave it its own light and now it’s taking over. 🤣 help!
I found these bugs in one of my plant soil. I had bought organic soil. I am really worried. Can I treat this? Are the neighbor plants going to get it also? I changed the soil and I have the same problem again.
Had this Sand Rose for 2-ish years. Started off GREAT. Put up a shoot but it never flowered. Around that time I chopped the flower and fertilized with liquid fertilizer. Fast fwd and Houston, we’re in trouble 😝 she’s weak and floppy. Growing aerial roots. I’ve repotted since and there is grit in the soil. Lost cause to the plant graveyard in the sky or any thoughts on how to rehab this sad baby? 🪴
Wondering what people’s experiences are with treating thrips?? Came to find out yesterday that it seems most of my plants are probably infected🫠. Going to try and treat some of them though have seen that many people have tough experiences with this pest and end up throwing plants out🥲 TIA!!
What is wrong with my Zzplant
Hey guys! Could use some advice on what’s going on with this plant! I believe it’s a Dwarf Banana plant. It’s just recently started getting these hard beige-ish colored bumps along the stem, and they don’t come off. Also the top leaf has this weird discoloration, I feel like it might be from a lighting issue but I’m not sure. And bottom leaves are now yellowing and falling off as well. What should I do? This plant was growing so fast for a while but a few weeks ago the growth slowed and these issues started.
Can anyone tell me if this plant is revivable?
Hi, I have no idea if this is a problem or not but my leaves on my peace lilly look a little droopy maybe Im just not thinking straight but if there is a problem please let me know
Anyone know what these dark brown spots are on my ghost plants? I was away for a couple weeks and came back to them with these spots and several leaves drying up and falling off. I had placed them in a slightly sunnier spot for one day and noticed it was a little too intense so I moved them back to shade before leaving. So I’m wondering if this is residual sunburn or if it could be a pest I’m not familiar with.
Does this look like too much light rather than overwatering on my prayer plant?
Hi Planta peeps! I was wondering your thoughts… this croton is near dead, but I think the roots seem fine. I’ve been trying to see if it’ll come back, but I feel like it’s been months and no progress. I hate to throw away the plant if there’s still potential, but I feel like hope is gone. Any thoughts?
Any idea what these flat, black spots are on my pilea?
Hi! New planter here…. Just received this beauty and one left has some brown spot, is this something I need to be concerned about or do anything?
can someone help me with my alocasia? the biggest leaf has turned all transparent and funny looking. the other leaves are fine and the underside looks untouched.... any thoughts?
