Can anyone tell me what is going on with this cherry tree. Black edges on the leaves. No spots anywhere else. Just all of the edges of every leaf. It’s in a large pot, it’s about 5 years old. We have had a lot of rain recently but is outdoors and soil seems to dry out in a good timely manner. It’s in part shade so doesnt get sun burned. It was fertilized recently by someone else so wondering if it can be fertilizer burn? I keep getting different answers from planta and google. Planta says underwatered but we literally had 4 days of torrential rain and it gets watered regularly as well. Google says fungal but shows pics of spots on leaves not on the edges only. Any help would be appreciated.

What should I do about gnats? I have 12ish plants on a stand and I’m not sure which ones are attracting them but I want them gone.

Hey everyone, Can someone tell me what’s going on with my monstera🥲😭. I repotted her into a self watering pot from naked root and I gave her some fertilizer but these spots started appearing out of nowhere. She only gets direct sunlight in the morning so I don’t think it’s burning and the roots looked healthy, no rotting. Please help😭

Morningggg everyone! Mold! How do I get rid of it? I change the topsoil and put new soil and it just keeps coming back. Ever since I repotted this has been happening ☹️

Root rot? Hey, everyone! I repotted my Philodendron Gloriosum in a rectangular acrylic pot a few weeks ago, I just drilled a lot of holes as drainage. However, I noticed that its roots looks like this, and there are some ant-like insects living in the soil? Any advice on what should I do? It’s currently shooting 3 new leaves out. Thank you!

Can anyone tell me what this bug on my Rosemary plant might be? First time I’ve seen anything like this. It’s about 1/4” long. I haven’t noticed any damage to my plants, and I didn’t want to kill it outright in case it’s something beneficial that eats the bad critters.

This is my alocasia. The ends are turning crispy brown and theres a large brown spot on one of the leaves. It lost a leaf a month ago, I assumed that was because of a new leaf growing in. I put it on pebbles with water as my room isnt the most humid, and its in part sun. The soil stays damp for a long time though, i haven't changed it since I got it, should I give it some soil with more pebbles and stuff in? Help me please 🙏

Hi everyone, this is my ficus Benjamina. It’s been dropping quite a few leaves recently and I’m worried because some new leaves have marks on them that shouldn’t be there. Any tips? I have no idea 🤷♀️

I have these little bugs on my patio tomato plant. I planted it next to Basil, but these guys are still here. My tomato’s are still green, can I save them or are they already contaminated by the bugs? What are these bugs and how can I get rid of them? They look like tiny flies. Also, is there anything I need to do like chopping off weird looking leaves?

Hello everyone I recently got an Alocasia Polly specimen and I had some bugs which resulted in me cutting 3 smaller leaves off. Anyway, now this is happening to my big leaf. Can someone please tell me how to fix and how to prevent this, ): I want to be a good Alocasia parent

Hello guys, my smaller umbrella was having some difficulty growing because my mom put it in a place where it was dark so it started crippling. So I cut off all the dead leaves and branches and checked if it was still alive and it was! (Surprisingly) Anyway, do you guys know what I can do to get it back to grow more leaves and such? Any help will be helpful.

I have a run of the mill Pothos and at some point in time, well over a year ago, these annoying tiny gnats decided to set up shop in the soil of Bradley. I have done everything I can think of and that everyone has suggested. I have used quite a bit of Neem oil on him over this past year. I did a partial “repot”.(just replaced the top few inches with new soil. When more eggs hatched I decided to go all out with a pesticide. It worked. But just for a month or so only for them to return. I decided to fully repot him. Shook as much oil soil off his roots as I could without possibly doing hefty damage. Cleaned the pot out and gave him new lovely soil. About a week ago I am eating a lovely breakfast when I notice the little f******s are yet again back. There are no other plants where he is kept. Just him. I don’t think Pothos can go outside living year round in West Texas. What do I do?

What are these spots on my Xanthosoma - Angel Wing plant? Any help is much appreciated.

I have had my Chinese Evergreen for almost a year now and originally it had 6-7 leaves, now it only has 4 about to have 3 leaves. Any advice on what I’m doing wrong, any help at this point would be very much appreciated. Just so you guys know, this plant is in an Easyplant pot, and for those of you that don’t know what that is, it’s a pot that waters the plant whenever it needs it.
