Believe I have a problem with fungus gnats in my corn plant soil. Any recommendations on how to address and prevent?
Why do the bottom leaves of my ficus have these brown spots?
Hi! I recently got this plant from a friend who’s going travelling, it appeared sick when I got it but hasn’t gotten any better. I cut off the completely dead leaves but I’m pretty sure it has fungus which I’ve never dealt with before! The leaves are curling and powdery, and some edges are brown and dry. I know this plant needs lots of sun and water, but I don’t know what else to do. There’s a few new growths which I think is good, but I need help!
Hi guys, purchased this beautiful Dieffenbachia (Dumb Cane) and notices this on it’s edges :( it feels a bit crispy. I watered it once with distilled water because i read it could be build up of minerals. I looked for signs of thrips i didnt see any i use neem oil spray on the leaves and the base of the plant just in case. Should i cut the crispy edges with a scissors ?
Hi all! I just noticed my dieffenbachia has a hole thing on the side of the stem. I repotted it recently, but otherwise haven’t changed anything. Does anyone know what this is?
Watermelon Peperomia - I know there’s no bugs or anything. Am I not watering enough? Leaves didn’t used to split and brown 😔
HELP! I don’t know what happening! Why do the leaves look like this? I just got this plant and it was perfectly fine! What am I doing wrong?!
Hello, I have a small string of bananas that has some spots of brown mush and I wanted some advice on what it is thank you :) (it’s Been hot then cold here )
My plant was diagnosed by the app that my plant is underwater. Can anybody confirm or recommend how to cure, thank you all.
Haworthia ‘Moon Shadow’ I think I’m killing it and idk how. There’s small new growth in the middle but my plant is brown. I don’t overwater it. It’s in direct sunlight in an East facing window. I’ve had fungus gnats recently but this plant didn’t seem to get them?
So I’m having problems with my avocado tree,it was happy as a clam while still in the rooting water. Once transplanted it seemed to go into shock and dropped its leaves, babied it for a while and it got new leaves. Now its leaves have dropped again and the very top is brown and shriveled looking. She has a grow light and I water with distilled water when the app suggests, fertilize with miracle grow and mist with distilled water per app instructions… any help is appreciated
Edit: I found a few thrips, would love suggestions on how to treat them! This fellow here has been struggling for a while now. I’m not totally sure what’s happening, to me it looks like rust almost. This plant has had thrips before, but it was throughly gone for six months before this happened. The roots look great, a few small mushrooms. The mushrooms don’t worry me because I have a few healthy plants that have mushrooms. Any advice would be appreciated!! I have no idea what’s up or how to fix it, so I am open to all the suggestions!
I just got this aloe. I reported it and trimmed some of its leaves. Now it is turning brown and sagging. Any idea what is causing it?
I just got a moon valley plant in the mail, and she is looking ROUGH! I attached two pictures of her and the picture that was advertised. Can she be saved? She doesn’t have mites, the dark spots are just soil from me repotting her. What do I need to do to get her back to what she looked like in the original pic?
I just got a begonia maculata in the mail, and one of its leaves looks a bit rough. Should I just cut off this leaf?
OMG. My beloved pink allocasia has thrips. I've never had thrips before, and I'm freaked out. Anyone have any special tips beyond the standard clean it spray it, isolate it? Has anyone successfully recovered a plant from this??
What is wrong with this plant? I repotted it a few months ago and this has been happening ever since.
What’s wrong with my plant?
