Any tips for fungal gnats? I’ve used water/hydrogen peroxide treatment, cinnamon, glue traps, repotted with fresh bagged soil and coir mix that looked clear (still treated before potting), etc. and the dang gnats are still crazytown. I don’t overwater. Any advice is helpful.

Anyone have any clue what is causing the Brown Spots on my Miss Muffett Caladiums?

Would it be safe to assume that this plant is being choked out by the pre existing spiderwort. We just moved here, and had no idea that these guys were actually there. I don’t want to pull out the spiderwort, and if the pansies die it’s fine. They weren’t gonna live that long anyway.

This Striped Dracaena plant was watered over 2 weeks ago, but never gets dry and I’m afraid maybe it’s got rot. It’s so big and heavy it’s hard to move or check. Any suggestions what’s going on or if I’ve been overwatering?

Should I be watering this plant when the soil still registers as “Moist”? This is a Council tree and I haven’t watered in almost 2 weeks.

My monstera has a sick leaf and I’m not sure if it’s due to lack of watering or too much or even not enough sunlight. I just repotted because it sprouted 2 new leaves and a whole new little sprout so I felt that it needed a bigger pot. The roots looked fine but that leaf is the oldest leaf so idk if that’s normal for it to just yellow and brown like that. Any recommendations to save the leaf I don’t want it to get worse and hurt the rest of the plant!

my flf is alive but hasn’t shown much growth except for maybe one leaf in the past few months at the very top. any way i can get it bushier or to pop out new growth? i’ve cut above some of the nodes to encourage but it hasn’t done anything

Spider plant needs help! It looks even more floppy and anemic now. This plant was adopted from a colleague who left and it lives on a ship. It has a grow light now, which it didn’t have before. Was given a slight sprinkle of fertilizer recently. Is this overwatered? Underwatered? Too much light?

Hello, very new plant mother here! I was recently gifted (what I now know is) a Tradescantia Nanouk. I was unsure if there was a problem with how its stems/leaves are hanging. I know it is a trailing plant, but some pictures I see online show some stems that stand more upright. I have been rotating it and it is placed near a bright window w/ a humidifier. Any tips would be greatly appreciated for this plant newbie 😅 - thanks!

Can anyone kindly help me with my (I think) creeping velvet philodendron? Got this guy a few months ago, discounted because he looks a little like he got in a fight, but has otherwise been healthy and growing steadily (three new shoots recently). Questions: How long do leaves take to uncurl? It’s been over five weeks for a few and they haven’t moved… Best way to prune? Sadly one of its biggest newer leaves died (the drooping one) and want to safely remove. Any other tips overall? 🙏

I have a couple of the bottom leaves during this. Dr Planta told me that it's probably from being overwatered. It isn't. I've never had that auto diagnose thing get any problems right. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Any ideas? PS the purple tint is because it's under a plant light.

Meet Gigi and Bello 🌿🌱 These two have been giving me a bit of a challenge lately. I tried moving one to a shadier spot and left the other in brighter light to see if light was the issue, but both still have the same symptoms. I’ve tried a few different care tweaks (watering, soil, location), but nothing seems to be working. Any advice or ideas would be much appreciated-I’m all ears!

I have two tomato plants. I’ve never had them before and up until a few days ago they were perfectly green and healthy. They get sun all day and we have had a decent amount of rain. What’s wrong with them? (Picture of each plant)

I got gifted this sunflower plant recently and have put her near to a big, South facing window. Planta recommended lots of sunlight as well as lots of water. I’ve been watering her by the Planta schedule (almost every other day in this very hot June in the UK) but she looks soooo worn out and crunchy, leaves browning still… She’s also attracting lots of flies? Any ideas on how to save her? 💚🤞

I’d read a while back about potting up a peace lily in water so thought I’d give it a go. The leaves began yellowing despite regular topping up and changing of the water, including fertiliser, so I decided to put her back in soil. She’s so wilted, I honestly think I’ve ruined her 😫 please help!!

Having issues with my pink and white princess 💔 I noticed some browning on the pink one first and then some soft spots on a new leaf and Planta said it was due to lack of sunlight. (They’re in a moss/coconut husk/soil mix and I wanter regularly, have a watering tray underneath them for humidity, as well as have a mini humidifier for them). I put them outside under a shaded tarp (I live in Arizona) for 30-45 minutes and now my leaves are so droopy and soft 💔💔 I initially suspected the humidifier was hitting the leaves directly and making them soft but Im not sure. I dont have a grow light for them but will get one soon. Ive only had these for about a month.

Help Stella! Stella lost her bloom and now her leaves are turning yellow. I just got planta so have been watering on my own schedule, about half a cup usually once a week. Stella is currently placed in a location with minimal direct light. What kind of plant is Stella? And how do you suggest I help her? Thanks for your speedy replies and support.
