My Tineke started dropping its bottom leaves… 2 today. Using a grow light about 2 ft away. Is it too far? Should I move the plant to a window? I only have west facing windows in my apartment.

I hope this is allowed but I have more data regarding my poor pink symphony Caladium- I went back to the nursery and ALL of the Caladiums had the beginning stages of the same issue. I wonder if it is a fungus or our zone just sucks for them. They’ve been moved indoors where there is no natural light. I’ve always wondered how stores are able to do that.

Anyone know what this fuzzy white stuff is? These are the roots of a long pothos vine I’ve been keeping in water. They appeared recently.

Hey all, My monstera has been having droopy leaves for a while now yet still gives new leaves. Just looking for some help. It’s in a part sun—>sun environment but was previously in a part sun—>pretty shady environment. (Side note it’s not just a daily thing such as it hasn’t been watered yet.)

Hello! This is the third lettuce I’ve regrown and it’s dying, none of the ones I’ve regrown have survived, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, I water it 2 days a week. My supposition is because of the weather, it’s hot and humid, I don’t know if they should be indoors in a cooler place or if I should regrow them just in water and not in soil Pls help 🥲🥲

Hi there, I hope someone can help me. I had this Red Nerve plant for 3 years. It was doing great! Planta app said to repot it and apparently it didn’t like that. I repotted it a year ago and I been trying to bring it back since. Any ideas?

I posted on here a while ago trying to identify this plant, and I believe it’s a mother of thousands/devil’s backbone. Since I’ve had it, the leaves have turned more red and it seems like it’s kind of hibernating? It looks like there are small sprouts on the inside of the “curled” up leaves, but it looks nowhere near as healthy as it did a couple months ago. The leaves are still firm, not hard/crunchy or mushy though. The photo with the red background is when I originally got it. The rest are its condition now. I definitely don’t have a natural green thumb so any advice is much appreciated!!

I just can’t anymore. I’m losing my mind. I’ve talked to four “plant experts” including people from Dr Planta— My caladium has brown spots. It has brown spots on new growth, old growth, green growth, pink growth. The spots are growing, and becoming crispy. I can hardly believe it’s sunburn considering how soft the light is where she’s at. Roots are gorgeous, she’s watered appropriately, she has a pebble tray, no pests, indirect soft light. I’ve tried neem for fungus, it seems to have made it worse She has cosmocote, orchard bark, potting mix and perlite. Please please help. I’m going away for two weeks and I know she’s going to be dead when I get back if I don’t figure this out 😭

Hi guys! I bought a pothos from walmart last week and she looks to have spider mites. Never delt with this before but from my understanding i should dunk her in soapy room temp. water and keep her isolated from my other plants. She has brown rips, tears and holes throughout so im wondering will she repair herself or should i cut them off? Appreciate any help or suggestions! Thanks in advance :)

Does anyone know what this is? It happened so quickly. I check my plants either every day or every other day and I just spotted it today. These are two different plants by the way, but they are the same plants. Also, the succulents that were right next to them were not affected just these two plants.

I received this plant in the mail from what I thought was a reputable plant company. I had to spend about 20-30 minutes scrubbing and cleaning this off. It did NOT want to come off. It was raised and the leaves that had it on them are all soft and flimsy. I found it on multiple leaves all over the plant. I’m thinking scale but it looks nothing like the pictures online. Regardless, the plant is not happy. Before I reach out to the plant company’s customer service, I’d like some help figuring out what it is. Is this scale? P.S. - I used a mixture of Castile soap, alcohol, essential oils, and hydrogen peroxide with a microfiber cloth.

Fairly new to house plants here, can anyone tell me what this is on my fiddle leaf fig? It’s on both the underside and top side of some leaves but not all.

Can someone tell me what these weird stem things are??? Is this normal?
fireside
is this scale?? these marks are so small I can’t tell. I originally thought they were scarring from a thrip infestation so they’ve been there for about a month (I can’t tell if the bumps have increased or not) but I recently learned about scales 🫠 a couple of the bumps can be scraped off and there’s a small divot where it was. I can’t see any little legs and nothing is moving. I just watered it today and it gets great sunlight.
