Help! I rescued this corn plant from Lowe’s (was on their discounted rack and very sick) last summer. Since the we’ve been through nursing back to health to bugs a few times. Now I see these brown spots beginning a few different leaves and I’m not sure what it is and how to treat. I was spraying with neem, once that was gone I started with peppermint and water (read that worked) and finally started with a systemic granular mix for all sorts of insects. Anything else I can try???

I have a couple plants that I use a treatment on (Neem oil, systemic insecticide etc) Is there a way to set up a schedule when you need to treat again?

This is my water and pray section lol. Small pots WERE caladiums lol. Front big pot is a flame violet that died but shows signs of hope and the big pot in back was also a caladium. Caladiums are my nemesis apparently. Well accept for 1.

Hii! my ivy isn’t doing too well at the moment and i’m not sure as to why. i normally have her in an area with moderate sunlight, but not too much. i also bottom water her once a week, which is what’s recommended. i’m not too sure as to why she’s drooping so much as she grew quite a lot over december. should i chop those drooping leaves, or is there anything else i can do for her?

Bought this lemon button fern and I'm not great at taking care ferns. Anybody know what can help it get better? It clearly needs help, but I don't know what kind.

Hello everyone, this is my 4-year old legend of a fiddle leaf fig. It’s been getting brown bits on its new leaves recently, and I think it’s because I moved houses around 3 months ago. It might be in shock, but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! â˜ș

A couple months ago I had repotted my croton. Apparently she went into shock and lost all her leaves. I’ve continued to water and mist as the app recommends. I actually trimmed back the dead branches a couple weeks ago. Now I’ve just been waiting for any sign of life, well this morning I noticed these little green buds on the stem!! Could be hope she’s coming back?!

A while ago I bought a gardenia not realizing it was infested with thrips. Not knowing how serious the situation was and having no experience with infestations, I bought some bug spray that gets rid of thrips and expected them to go away within a day or two, and put the gardenia next to my other plants; although I did separate it a few times because I noticed some of the thrips on its flowers and took it down to spray it again. Only last night I had realized how much of a pain these bugs can be and I’m panicking not knowing what to do. I checked my other plants and everything seems fine except for my new satin pothos plant. đŸ˜„ I’m seeing 2 white marks that don’t like the normal silver marks it has, and I found a leaf with some odd holes in it. I believe I have reached the maximum amount of photos for this post and will try to add my satin pothos photos in the comments. What are the steps and things I need to do to get rid of these bugs, and should I be worried about my other plants? 1st photo: Photo of what I believe is a thrip 2nd and 3rd photo: Possibly damage from thrips? 4th photo: plant spray I’m currently using

My mother of thousands leaves started turning brown and dying so I cut some and others fell off. Now it just looks kind of crazy. It is still growing new leaves but is there anything I can do to fix this?

Am I a silly Billy or are these little brown spots scale? Fiddle leaf fig purchased from Aldi for $15, I’ve never had scale before and I have too many plants to risk it spreading 😭😭 she’s been in quarantine for two weeks getting treatment every 3-6 days. I have not tried scrubbing them off, I don’t even wanna touch it I’m so grossed out by the thought of scale đŸ„Ž

Hey Planta fam, does anyone know what would be causing this calcification to grow on my pots and film on the soil?

I’ve got fungus gnats. I got the sticky traps and mosquito bits. How do I make the tea? How much do I water each plant? Thank you.

I have horrible news. My succulent has a disease. Do not know what it is. However, I haven’t tried anything to help it get better. I have not given the plant any food. I haven’t given any iodine or sodium.

Help! I got these two beautiful Calatheas a few days ago. I was super excited to see them but it seems like they aren’t adjusting well so far. I know that they are very delicate plants and can be dramatic but any ideas on what might be wrong? Are they getting too much sun or are underwatered? I’m purchasing a water meter to accurately determine how wet they are but in the meantime, any ideas?? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thank you! :)
