My Yucca Plant is yellowing for some reason? Am I over watering? I usually water it sparingly weekly or 10days- when the soil looks dry. What should I do?

Hey guys! I don't know if this is a problem. But I repotted my golden potho a couple months ago, and it hasnt grown. It's not dying, just not growing. I've been trying to make sure the soil is good, but i have no idea what to do. Maybe fertilizer? Please help!!

My plant here, I got from a drug store, and right now the flowers are crinkled up and turning brown. Not sure if I should cut them off, let them fall off. Or why. Help is appreciated!

My Echeveria chihuahuaensis has been confusing me for a few months now. She became very dehydrated months ago (I was new to plants) but has since mostly recovered, except for wrinkles on the underside of her bottom leaves. As she became adequately watered and her leaves firmed up, the wrinkles continued to remain on the underside. I have tried under and over watering to see if anything would make a difference but nothing has. When I try underwatering, however, the bottom wrinkly leaves do not become squishy or flimsy as they lose water. They remain firm with wrinkles. The leaves above them respond to less and more water but the bottom leaves remain wrinkly yet firm. I am unsure if the plant needs them anymore. Should I take the wrinkly bottom leaves off? Any help or advice is appreciated. Thank you! Picture 1 is from October Pictures 2 and 3 are her today, from above and below angles

Can someone help me with my spider plant? My dad knocked it over, on accident and it lay face down for about 2 days before we noticed it, (I’m a busy person lol) and it’s pretty much gone. However there is a tiny baby plant growing from the top (you can see it in the picture) any tips??

My peace lily has been very droopy lately without going back so I figured it was root bound and it was so, I repotted and watered as I suspected it was also over watered and I had to cut a few leaves because they were to yellow and brown. I’m worried about it, does anyone have any tips to help it?

I have this money tree that as mid Fall came, I noticed yellowing and dropping leaves. I thought it was a season change but nothing really stopped with the watering and sun it was getting. More and more leaves started falling no matter what I did and eventually I found spider mites. Not sure where they came from but I felt so bad for the plant. After a couple of months battling with them. Showers, humidity, neem - yellow leaves kept randomly appearing so I decided to do a reset chop. Hoping and very excited for this plant to come back better than ever! Wish me luck

Yesterday, I received a turtle in the mail. It was sent with weather assurance but still looks rough. It lost a lot of its turtles. Should I trim the bare strings off or do new turtles grow on the strings? Thanks for any help🪴

My calocasia has spider mites:( Just noticed it yesterday so I threw it into quarantine. This is my first plant to have pests, so I was wondering if I need to take it out of the soil and scrub the roots down with a hydrogen peroxide mix also or just the leaves?? And the new leaf is super chewed up from the mites I assume so I should try to clean that guy off as much as I can without damaging it?

Could this be sunburn? It gets direct east light from sunrise to about 1 in the afternoon. This is the side that was closest to window. It’s about 1-3 inches from window. Thanks!
