I’ve had my Fiddle Leaf Fig for about 3 months off Facebook marketplace. It’s always been droopy but continues to grow new leaves. It’s watered whenever the soil starts to get dryish and it’s facing west. Any recommendations?

SOS. My alocasias leaves are folding in and dropping. I’m not sure what is wrong or how to fix it. Any suggestions are welcomed. This is my favorite plant 😢
Errrrr might it be time to repot? Maybe overdue even? Im terrified of overwatering w this one. If i do repot, do i need to loosen the roots or just pop it into a slightly bigger pot? I havent had it for too long so i cannot tell you how long its been in here lol
What do you all do with gnats? I do t know what I can do to get rid of them from my plants.
I rescued this alocasia- she is not happy. I have put her in aroid soil, on top of a pebble/ water tray, mist with distilled water, and she has bright but not direct light- I have had her 2 weeks. I just gave her new soil today. She is in a nursery pot with drainage. I bottom water her when the top inch or two of soil are dry. I have not done any fertilizer yet- I don’t want to make too many changes too fast. Any advice? Tips? Thank you.
Why does my golden pothos get new growth and as the leaf is unfolding another leaf is trying to unfold inside of that leaf? What should I do?
Is this normal for a boobie cactus
Got my Ficus Benjamina 2 years ago and it has gone through a few cycles of huge leaf drop, small growth, more drop, becoming quite leggy in the process. Any tips on managing the ‘legginess’ and the balance — do I prune or leave alone?
Does anyone know what this is on my money tree? I'm a bit concerned.
What is on my alocasia? These marks aren’t raised. And it produced another leaf just as big without any problems or marks. I’ve been in the slow process of moving it from hydroponic growing to soil (that’s when the new leaf appeared). Seems otherwise healthy.
Hello, After my last watering, 2 of my plants have mold on the soil. I removed most of the mold with a plastic spoon. But, how do I prevent this from happening again and how can I treat the remaining mold? Thanks
One leaf of my chinese evergreen has turned yellow! What am i doing wrong? Will i need to cut this leaf out? Ps: i follow what Planta says and i have this on sunlight today (just for a few minutes) while I dont have anyone to see in my office
I know millipedes are not pests but it’s getting ridiculous how many there are in my monstera. Probably 100. And then I’ll dry my plant out, they all shrivel up, I water my plant again, 100 more appear overnight. None of my other houseplants plants have this going on! I think I left my monstera outside for a couple nights a few weeks ago and that’s how they got in it, and must’ve laid eggs (there’s no trail of them getting into the pot and the pot isn’t near an entrance). And the life cycle keeps continuing. My monstera is basically thriving but I don’t want her to dry out just so I can kill the millipedes :( idk what to dooooo
Is there any saving her?? got super busy beginning of the month and didn’t water for 2 weeks and she’s super unhappy. I usually have trouble with this plant in particular but it’s never looked this bad. I watered today, just wondering if there’s anything I can do to get it to perk up again
I got this syngonium a few days ago, and i just noticed its losing some of the pink??? The first pic is the day i got it, the other two i took just now. I’ve never had a syngonium before, is this normal??
I bought this Gardena for my mother recently and it hasn’t been doing well. I keep it indirect sunlight like my local garden center said to and I water regularly. I think it may be thrips (there is spots on the bottom of the leaves) please tell me what you think !
Help! My monstera is getting brown spots on the edges of the variegation, what am I doing wrong? Planta doc said too much light but I’m not so sure. It’s in a super chunky mix and I try to let it dry before watering. Part sun window, with only a couple hours of direct light, if that.
I don’t know hats wrong but I feel like my plant isn’t very happy right now and I’m not too sure why. Some of the larger leaves lack structure and a few leaves with browning tips and I’m not too sure what to do. Any suggestions?
Hey all, so I have my first orchid and I definitely listened to the wrong people and had potting mix in this. I repotted it after I got it. This was one of my first plants so didn’t really know the rules of not doing that, using the orchid mix etc. I’ve just repotted it tonight with the proper mix, and gave it a water. Is this one hopefully gonna make it or seems like a goner? I don’t see any rot when I took it out and the roots looked thick and green
My 20 year old rubber plant which is usually very happy has developed some marks on its leaves & I can’t figure out what the problem is. I’ve been careful with watering & started feeding the soil again once spring started. Any advice would be great, it’s part of the family!
