I need help yall. This is my new peace Lily and it looks sad. I was told they are somewhat easy and don’t need to be kept in too much light. I have it next to the window and during the day it gets decent light. I have watered it twice but very sparingly over the past two weeks. Any recommendations??

Can someone please help me with my peace lily? Not sure if the sun is burning it or too much water.

My silver inch plant is getting so long and heavy. I’m needing to do something or I’m afraid it’s all gonna break off! Also it’s so delicate at the top I’m afraid if I take it out of the pot it will all break. Any suggestions?

Too much water or too little? Yes there is drainage and I tend to ignore my cactus. It has a grow light 24/7. Thoughts??

I spotted thrips on my red maranta. Any advice on how to treat this guy or plants in general? I don't notice a ton, but I'm nervous they may have spread to my other indoor plants.

max!

My alocasia suffering effects of overwating. The soil was changed and it has since gotten better however the leaf of the larger plant began drooping. It firmed up after watering but has started drooping again.

When adding liquid fertilizer to plants, how do you know how much to add, and do you add it directly to the pot or dilute with water?

So this is princess cupcake, named so because she was dramatic AF. Now though, she has every reason to be dramatic 🙄 I left her in the care of a friend while I went on a trip and came back to her.... 'baldness' The first two pictures is her this morning, the last one is how I left her. This happened last fall, and I thought she wasn't watered properly since her leaves were crunchy, but soon after they all started drying and falling like crazy until we got this result. I've tried watering her consistently, tried changing the location, changing her buddies, singing to her, asking her wtf is wrong.... nothing. She'll sprout a bunch of new cute leaves but they get up to a certain size and start getting leggy and dying. Mind you, she gets at least 8 hours of indirect sunlight were she is, moved her to a darker spot and even more leaves died🥀🍂*sigh* is there anything that can be done for her? Or is she basically in geriatric end-of-life care???? Thank you so much 🙇🏻‍♀️

Hey :))!! One of the leaves of my money tree is turning yellowish. I'm not sure what it could mean. No direct sunlight, and I always let the soil dry 3ish in before watering... I don't know what else it could be :(

I have two bird of paradise's, they used to thrive, but a family friend broke half of the stems on both so i have to cut them down, and they just haven't been the same. How do i get them to thrive again?

Fairly new to planting here. I have what I believe to be a “sweet heart vine” and it looks like it’s been overwatered and could possibly have root rot?? If so can I save it? 🤞🏽🥺❤️‍🩹 Pleeeease help! To add it was it a 4 in nursery and when I went to repot that’s when I noticed some roots didnt look so great and the base of the plant didn’t look right. I can also answer any additional questions if I didn’t include enough info.

Hi! I got this jungle boogie philodendron from a nursery but it came with all these yellow spots. They are on all the leaves and the plant seems happy. Is this a pest? Any advice?

What’s happening?? She keeps losing more leaves! I water consistently when the leaves get squishy (I wait about a week after the leaves start to squish a little) but she just doesn’t want to live!! SOS!!
