Oh no!!! I just saw spider webs on my indoor hydrangea. She’s been THOUGHLY sprayed with insect acide and is now been moved outside. BUT she was about 2-3 feet from a grouping of other plants. How likely is it that my other plants will be infected do you think? There’s some basil and mint there as well as 2 orchids, my brand new baby string of turtles, tradescantia nanouck and a pepperomia and polka dot plant. I JUST let the nanouck and turtles out of quartaine last night too!!! Please help!!!

Evening, my Dionaea muscipula (Venus fly trap) has white bits in the soil that seems to be mould. I’ve only recently bought it and when I bought it, I was charged very little as it was severely dehydrated in the garden centre. I was planning on repotting soon but hoping to revive it a bit more so it’s stronger for the transfer. The pot it came in has drainage holes with the roots poking out the holes into another pot. I’ve read before that this is for putting water in the outer pot for the roots to drink from rather than the soil so this is what I’ve done over the last week or two. Is this correct? Should I repot now and change soil? Is there any way to treat the mould? Thank you!

I’ve had this turtle vine for a month maybe two. I water her every 4 or so days and use Planta to inform me when to as well. I found it looking like this I believe it’s flourished with new growth but I’m wondering will this dead look ever go away? I’m not sure what to do with it

Hi! I’ve had my golden pothos plant, Athena, for a month or two now. When I bought her she had a small brown dot on one of her leaves and since then it’s been growing… anyone know what this may be and how to stop it?

Hey. Urgent help please!!! Me and my eves needle cactus have been together since I was born lol. And I’m really worried about her. She’s in full sun, in my window and I never over/under water (from what I believe anyway). She is very old and sat happily in my nanas conservatory until I moved her in with me in my new house. Well she didn’t like the move and is not looking too happy with me. Ever since I remember she’s had a little brown patch on top of her and now it’s just getting bigger. PLEASE- if there’s anything you think it could be. She’s also dropping her needles. Thank you!!

Hmmm noticing gnats in the soil of some of my pots. Will a spray of soap and water do?

Okay so first, my peace lily’s blooms are finally opening up!! Yayayay! But the rest of her is struggling. She has brown sports on the tips of her leaves, yellow leaves, and other patches of brown: I’ll leave pictures down below. Please help me save her!

This is my nanouk plant and I read that downward curled leaves mean overwatering, so I’m remedying that by skipping the next few watering prompts. What I wanted to ask everyone is do the leaves ever uncurl? Or is the change permanent. Google isn’t being very cooperative on finding that out😅 if anyone has any experience with this I’m eager to get my plant happy again.

What are these and why are they killing my plants??? Not so obvious here but a couple of my other guys are completely decimated.

I repotted my Alocasia Azlanii this morning in order to get it into a chunky mix. When I pulled it out of the pot there were 2 groupings of these white growths. Normally, when I see formations like this, they’re insect eggs. Does anyone know what these are? Eggs? Mold or some other fungus? Tiny Tic Tacs made by tiny soil elves?

I don’t know what is wrong with my rabbit fern. 😩 I’ve had it a few years and all of the sudden it’s lost all leaves and looks horrible. Help!! Should I toss it?

Hi Guys and Girls, having a bit of a crisis with three of my babies. I have taken some photos just to show you, one has a strange mark on his body and looks brown and patchy around the bottom, the other one has gone a little yellow in this particular place on his side and one has got a strange looking patchy white substance around his base. I’m kinda hoping they don’t have root rot as all three were repotted two weeks ago and the roots although a little root bound looked ok to me. Any help is greatly appreciated. x

Does anyone know why my Birds of Paradise has these brown spots? They’re on 2 new leaves.

Hi everyone!! I got this camo dieffenbachia about a month ago on sale from Kroger. It was so big and healthy, but when I got home it started dropping leaves (which I thought was normal since it was relocated). Now, the edges are getting brown and crispy and recently some of them are completely drooping. I usually bottom water it when the soil is mostly dry and I’ve been trying not to over water it. I haven’t repotted it either and it’s in front of a north facing window. I’d appreciate any recommendations! Thank you all!! :-)

Hello! I need help! I don’t know why my cat palm’s leaves are all turning yellow brown. I only water/ fertilize it when the app tells me to and it’s not directly in front of a window. I’m not sure what else could be the issue.

My black dragon alocasia has curling leaves! It has been watered consistently and nothing helps

please help!! i haven’t been a very good plant mum but she’s really not looking good and i’m not sure what to do! she looked the same for a very long time but has now been slowly declining.

hi, y’all! 👋🏼 i may be overthinking this but i just so happened to notice my krohniana was feeling a bit soft in almost all her leaves 🧐 she’s due for a water in a few days so i was thinking that might be it but i noticed her soil was still a bit moist (not wet). she’s in molly’s aroid mix, drainage hole, i water her about every 2 weeks when soil is mostly dry, she’s under a grow light, no sign of pests. i decided to give her fresh soil cuz i’m paranoid. her roots were mostly fine, not black or mushy, but there were some roots that pulled off & were kind of dry. any idea what the deal is? i haven’t watered her new soil yet, should i? i dont want to overwater her but i don’t want to underwater her! 😰
