Hi I need some advice, so I needed to report my snake plant and accidentally used the wrong soil which was wayyy to most/damp. The snake plant after about a week started turning yellow and leaves were curling so I took it out its soil today and its roots are super red now :(…. I’m not sure if it’s completely root rot or not and if I need to cut off any roots . I was planing on just letting the roots dry out for the night and repotting with better soil tmrw? Any suggestions it would really help 🫶🏽

Hi! I was wondering if anyone could recommend me anything to get rid of bugs on my plants (indoor). Such as what to buy or tips and tricks.
I love giving my baby rubber plant a nice thorough watering some days but I really can’t seem to avoid the pesky fugus gnats and my friend told me to try vinegar was wondering if any of you knew if it worked or not I don’t want to risk irritating my plant ☺️
My monstera Thai con has a tiny brown dot (~ 1mm long) and two brown lines on either side of the sheath part or the stem (~ 1cm). Is it due to humidity? Or is the grow light too strong? (It’s 10W, she’s getting indirect light from it). 😬 I know it’s small but I’m hoping if I catch it now, it won’t turn into a bigger issue later on! 😭🙏
Help! I think some of my plants could have thrips. How did this happen? What do I do? I have 39 plants and washing them n the shower isn’t going to happen. Is bonide + captain jacks ok? Will it hurt my plants? Do I treat all plants or just those I think are affected? Here is jade pothos i think is suffering
Hello, I could use some help with my fiddle leaf fig(FLF) I am not great at keeping plants but recently got this one and some of its leafs don’t look very great so any advice on how to help it leaves and how to take care of it would be very helpful and appreciated.

A while ago I posted a picture of the little dimpling underneath my pepperomia leaves and was told it’s probably normal. Now there are new ones but they have little white specks that look like salt. Anyone know what’s going on with it?
Hi Everyone, I am trying to save money tree of my roomate, while it’s doing fine after I remove the other damaged stem but recently I have started seeing the fungus on it. Anything I can do to make it healthier and back to life? TIA
Diagnosis Help: I'm not sure what is ailing my plant. Planta just says over or underwatering, but I'm not sure that's it. It looks kind of like a pest, but I don't see anything. The plant has also grown like gang busters, so I'm curious if it's related to overcrowding. Appreciate any expertise. Thanks
Hi All, I’m hoping someone can offer me some insight regarding these signs of disease on my ‘Black Velvet’ Alocasia. This is the second or third year it has developed these spots. In the past they have grown larger and eventually I have removed the affected leaves. Four of the eight leaves are affected. The rest of the plant looks healthy. I’ve treated for pests and fungus, but not aggressively. I read somewhere that this is a normal “shedding” for their dormancy period, but I’d like confirmation please. Thank you in advance, Diane
Hey y’all Help!!!! How do I get these hard water stains off my leaves!!! I have been misting with tap water and have recently changed to distilled! Recently as in yesterday. But The water stains are still here! What can i do??
I’ve seen a lot of recommendations on systemic pellets for fungus gnats so I recently purchased some from a garden center that’s closing (yay for plant sales haha). I have been patiently waiting for my plants to begin to dry out so I can water them with the pellets, however after reading the directions on the bottle I’m more than confused. Are they water soluble & am I supposed to give at watering time? Or do I bury a few under the first few inches of soil then water? *picture of the product purchased
hi! i have always had trouble with my elephant bush looking dead to being completely fine but this is probably the worst it as ever looked. the first picture is now and the second was just a couple months ago. i am not sure what is wrong with it. i recently started to get rid of fungus gnats and i wondered if they had started to get to the roots of it and were killing it but i have almost no gnats now! i am also wondering if i over water it but it is always completely dry when it’s time to water. anyone have any advice ? thanks (:
Hi! Was hoping anyone could give advice on our plant. We’ve had some issue with it. The middle is perfectly fine and healthy but any small growths have been dying off. We watered according to Planta but it did not help so we are trying to underwater right now. Please let us know what you think!
I’ve got spider mites or thrips and I don’t know what to do . Please help I saw these weird small thingys moving on my lemon with white spots , I can’t tell if it’s thrips or mite
This is my second Prayer plant and I’m having the same issues! Initially thought thrips, treated well with neem oil (wiping leaves, spraying soil) preventing fungus with baking soda and I just can’t seem to get her comfortable anymore. Everything was going so well until about 2 months ago. The plant has lots of indirect natural sun light. I appreciate the uk is getting colder and darker but the temp never drops inside below 16/17 degrees c. Any suggestions of help is appreciated
Why are some of the leaves on my ZZ plant turning light green? There’s also one leaf that is two toned, light green and brown?
HELP! What on earth happened to my philodendron micans?? I brought it home 2 days ago and noticed some spots on the leaves. Today I decided to take a good look and almost all the leaves fell off with a light touch… 2nd photo is of the 2 leaves remaining, one old (spotted) and one new (red). Last photo show the spots on both sides of a fallen leaf. Is there any chance this plant will live? And wth is it!!🥲🥲
