Ugh, has anyone had any success propagating aloe Vera’s from leaf cuttings/snaps? My baby aloe put out this huge leaf and the leaf snapped from the weight of it 😭

I give up! this is the second of this type of plant and I think I’m just not vibing with this plant. Now one of the leaves has brown spots and is going to make the leaf drop. I even tried changing the windowsill ! What are your thoughts?

Can anyone help me? I’ve had a gnat problem with my plants for over a year now. it feels like everything I do doesn’t work, i’ve done systemic, hydrogen peroxide, dr bronners soap and water, i even have one of those machines with the light that’s sucks them into a sticky thing, and i have the sticky things for the plants. But they keep coming back. it’s making me hate soil! I don’t know what else to do. any tips?

Hi! Picked up this philodendron from Trader Joe’s today, and I’m wondering what the little white spots are. Also, is this a red sun, or something else? TIA!

Hi everyone! 😊 I have this cherry tomato plant but about two weeks ago I repotted it and the soil affected it and week ago I changed the soil and also added fertilizer, but the soil that affected them caused some leaves to dry and and the branch in the right is kind of floppy, does anyone have any tips for the floppy branch and for the dry leaves? Should I remove them or leave them like that? 🥲

Hello everyone:) I got this purple passion about a month or two ago from Walmart. I take care of it in my college dorm and haven't gotten the chance to repot it and I'm not sure how to get it more sun. I do have a plant light from the brand Wiz, it's a color-changing lightbulb and I'm not sure how good it works. I put water in the bottom of then the passion plant sits in it from the pot I bought it in. Miss Girls' leaves are getting a little droopy but at the same time, this is the longest the stalk has been. Does anybody have any tips? I've been out of the fragrance diffuser long before I had the passion plant and it's just for decoration.

Hello everyone. New here and just getting back into plants after years of living in a basement suite and not having any. My boyfriend’s dracaena and bamboo have yellowing with brown tips at the end of the leaves. Wondering if anyone has any advice on what this could be or if this is normal?

Apple tree that started getting circular brown spots. Looked it up online but I’d like to know if there is something else I could possibly do to get back to healthy.

Leaf on my money tree - is this something to worry about? What causes it? (Only on 1 leaf)

Why does my Marble Queen keep producing new leaves with no variegation? Is it too much light or not enough? She’s otherwise healthy it looks like…

Does anyone know why my bamboo plant keeps yellowing? I give it plenty over water but I don’t think I overwater it.

I’ve had this snake plant for over a year, but recently it’s had some issues. I pulled out a dried-out part of the plant and repotted the rest, but now one of the leaves is yellowed and mushy. What’s going on?

Has anyone used Bonide’s Systemic Houseplant Control? It says it’s effective for treating scale among other things. The active ingredient is imidacloprid. This product sounds dangerous and I’d rather not use it, but I am at my wits end trying to treat this scale problem on my big ficus. Help! TIA. 😊💚🪴
