I live with my Mom and recently the responsibility of looking after the garden was handed over to me. Of course, as soon as I looked at the plants almost all of them are diseased or showing signs of other problems. I’ve attached photos of the problems and I was wondering if anyone has any idea what the problems are and how I can fix them (preferably with things I have in the house). In order, the plants are a sage, a red robin, a rosemary, a lavender and a mugwort if that helps.

Hi there! Don’t these plants look dry? My house is very dry, but my soil meter says the soil is very wet in both of these! (The meter is working fine for all my other plants) Help? It’s an inch plant and a money tree. Thank you!

My thanksgiving cactus flowed in November and seemed very happy, I haven’t changed anything about it’s routine since then but it has stopped putting out new growth and has these strange orange/brown spots on only the top leaves. Anyone know what this is?

Need help with all three of my plants. It’s currently winter where I am. The three plants are Dieffenbrachia, Peace Lily, and Silver Streak Pothos. All three of them started yellowing, with the silver streak getting more browning as of late. I’m not sure what the problem is, I don’t believe I overwater, and for the most part all 3 looked pretty solid just a few weeks ago, now they’re always drooping and yellowing. Any thoughts as to what might be the problem? I’ve provided some before and after images below.

I’ve posted my Aloe plant on here before and I’m honestly just a bit worried. I haven’t had the time to get drainage material yet but I also haven’t watered it since then. this brownish color is kinda stressing me out. I turned it around because the longer leaf pointing to the back left has gone backwards significantly and I think that might be because of the sun? Is there any possibility that it could be getting too much sun? Or could it be under-watering?

Hello! I’m not sure if anyone can help but my plant has randomly gotten very sick and its leaves are slowly turning brown and falling right off. I haven’t changed the location or watering schedule in months and that is the only thing the app suggests may be wrong. I’m not sure what to do I think it may die entirely soon! Could it possibly be a pest problem? I live in a high rise apartment so I get very few bugs but I’m not sure what the problem could be. This plant has been very happy and growing fast for the last year I’ve owned it it’s so strange!

Hey guys!! This is my Chinese Evergreen, and it’s not doing too well :( It’s in regular houseplant soil, receiving indirect bright light. The leaves have fallen off, it’s turning brown, and the roots are very dry and brittle. Can it be helped?

Thank you all for previous advice to check money trees for tape or bands on the roots. I have been struggling with a money tree for over a year. I finally repotted today and found a thick tape band wrapped around the root area. Three stems had root rot and were mushy which I removed. Thankfully it had what appear to be two healthy stems with leaves remaining. I cleaned those roots with water and peroxide and repotted them in a much smaller pot. Now we wait. I would have never known to check if I had not seen the comment posted here.

Does anybody have a good mixture of essential oils that work to get rid of spider mites on indoor plants?

I am brand new to plants and 2 days ago bought this global green Pothos. It seemed in great condition until now because some of the leaves are drooping and a few brown spots have appeared. Is it a problem with watering? Too much sunlight? Help would be appreciated 😅

I recently got a lavender and repotted it into a pot without drainage holes (Ik, not great idea). She ended up getting left in the rain a couple times and looked to be drowning.. I just repotted her into a pot with drainage holes, but the base of the plant isn’t looking great and neither are the flowers (I’m unsure if the flowering is going through its cycle or not). Any help?

I want to remove these dying leaves how should I do this so that she’s still able to grow more? And is this from over watering?

I just moved my soap aloe to a sunnier spot and now one of his arms looks burned and shriveled. Could this be too much sun? Thanks for any advice! 😊

My Kalanchoe and my Jade both keep getting bugs and I’m not sure how to get rid of them. Please help! I’ve tried spray with water or using a little toothpick to scrape them off. Repotted them. What else can I do?

Ordered a plant about a month ago and everything seemed fine. Started noticing these white things on the tray after I watered it. Not sure what I should do or what they are. Don't want it to infect the rest of my plants. Please help!
