What happened to my Peace Lilly? Why is she suddenly dying? I keep her in medium indirect light and water bottom up once a week.

Does anyone have tips about sprays to keep cats away from plants? I’ve heard that I could put lemon juice into a spray bottle and dilute it- but I think that may damage some plants. I’ve used cat grass, and giving them a plant seemed to help but I’m hoping for a solid deterrent. Pls help

My lemon lime prayer plant was beautiful. Anyone know how I can save it? It looks like maybe new growth in the middle?

Any tips? Should I pot him in soil now? I have him in indirect sunlight near the window. Thanks!

I impulsively bought a mini phalaenopsis orchid today (so cute), but when i got home i realized there was mold covering the top of the roots ._. Does anyone have any advice on getting rid of the mold? also what would be the cause(s) so i can avoid this in the future?

Looking for some snake plant advice. I’ve had this plant for a few years and recently moved to a new house and it’s not doing so great. It’s become very floppy with wrinkly/ribbed leaves. The base of the leaves have become “C” shaped and very ridged and hard. I tired to diagnose the plant via the app and it said it was over watered, which I have hard time believing. I hadn’t been watering it often. My instinct is that it wasn’t getting enough sun and that it was under watered. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, my cactus which is a lemon ball is squishy on one side, but not rotten yet. There are also some spots and the needles on the squishy side are not as pokey or long. Any ideas what it is or what to do? Please let me know, thank you! Ps sick side right, healthy side left

I recently got this goldfish plant a few weeks ago but I can’t figure out why its drooping. I’ve thought it was under watering so I was trying to make sure that I give it a good drink when I water it, but it hadn’t seemed to improve. Anyone have thoughts on this?

Not necessarily a problem , but this is my maranta leuconeura (prayer plant). It’s been doing great and the other day I noticed it had this little flower on it. Anybody know what this could mean, or am I just the chosen one?

My Alocasia nebula was getting all weird. The leaves have curled, but the surface of the leaves are normal. The stems are drooped down, but the structure of the stem is strong. Essentially, it looks like it’s short on water. Since I’m tight on my scheduled watering and frequently finger-checking the soil, being short on water made no sense. Based on this, I suspected that its root ball must be pretty small and unable to take up water fast enough to maintain the plant. I pulled the plant out and viola!… barely any roots. With so little roots, reviving can be tough. I could cut off two leaves and hope the roots will keep up with the one remaining leaf. But what if the remaining leaf was already chosen by the plant to be sacrificed and its fate just wasn’t visible yet? In that scenario, I would have cut off the two good leaves only to have the last leaf die off. Instead, I have decided to keep all three leaves and go with a deep water culture. Now it will have access to water 24/7. I’ve added food to the water to get things jump started, and an air stone to get oxygen into the water for the roots, which will help significantly with keeping the roots healthy and white. Now I wait. One thing is for sure; this will either work or it will not. 😜

Got this Regal Shield plant yesterday and it already had this drooping leaf. The owner of the shop told me to just cut it off and it’ll grow back stronger. I have done some research and know that some leaves will start drooping to make way for new growth, so I wanted to ask the community if chopping the leaf is the right thing to do!!

Saw a couple of these guys in my Coleus soil. What are they and what should I do!? 😬 Help please!

Help!! Found these dark rough spots on my silver penny plant. Plant is 4-5 years old. Been outside for several weeks, I’m in Georgia 8b, well watered, fertilized, growing.

How much should I cut these leaves and should I wait sometime to cut after I water her? After 1 week of trip and this happened… Since I put in small pot and root were outside of the soil, I repoted it yesterday. Trying to observe it after I repoted and watered, but not sure about which to cut for saving her. Leaves on a bottom is dried but still green, but some on a top is dried and yellow.

Anyone have any advice about what to do for my Monstera Deliciosa’s leaves? They’re slowly turning brown and wilted on the edges. I water once a week, maybe longer in between if the soil is still moist. I pictured the window it’s sitting next to. I’m not sure what to do for her and would love some advice if anyone has it! :)

Just picked up my first monstera from Facebook marketplace and I get it in two weeks… my parents are caring for it until I get there and I think they’re killing it 😭😭😭 what’s the best care to help save it for two weeks? I think they’ve overwatered it and might be too close to a window? Sun sets in this window and they said the leaves are starting to curl… they’ve had it two days… I need help before they kill it!!
