Managed to save this plant from a fungal infection and spider mites. See all the new growth? But how does it pay me back?!?! It gets mealy bugs! 🤦🏼♀️ Thankfully I have had an absolute ton of practice dealing with them lately. So far there have been five plants in that bay window with them and I'm not sure why. Haven't added any new plants. 🤷♀️ I'm running out of quarantine space. Oh and I also got to deal with my first case of white aphids. What the heck!!!!
Hi! I have been having an issue with my golden lace cactus as of late. The first two pictures are from when I first got it. It was super green and stood straight up. I put the cactus on my windowsill in my office, so it could get lots of natural light and warmth. Sometimes it would droop to one side, but usually when I gave it a little bit of water or turned it, it would straighten itself out. Lately, I’ve noticed that it looks almost deflated, like it has shrunk. It’s stature is twisty instead of straight, and I’ve botched there’s little bumps/knobs that seem to be growing on it. It has also lost a lot of its green color. The last two pictures is my cactus now with all those things. I’m still somewhat new to plants, so I’m not sure what could be wrong. Please help!
Are these thrips? 😭 help I’ve never had pests before. I thought this succulent was just unhappy because I’ve neglected watering it for a long time. I can’t attach the video but they are tiny and crawling around the leaves
Some pearls are falling off & some look smashed. What’s wrong with her? My 1st SOP … please help.
I recently moved a few plants back inside to get ready for fall and it looks like my soil is molding. I had a similar issue last year with most of my house plants but it resolved as soon as I moved the plants outside. Any idea what I could do to prevent this or what is going on?
Hi! Can anyone tell me if these are possible to revive/propagate or if they’re goners? I usually “forget” to water so that the soil dries out completely. But a few days ago I reached under the leaves to check the soil and was surprised when I uprooted them with a gentle touch. I just thought the lower leaves were just dying off with age, but… was it a sign of the roots rotting off?
I got this air plant not too long ago, and I keep making sure to dry it out completely so it doesn’t get rot- but I’m still finding that it’s getting super crispy! Any suggestions as to what I’m doing wrong or how I can fix this? 🥺
There’s brown leaves on my plate. What do I do?
I’ve this Tonto crapemertyle plant in a 3 gallon pot. I purchased this 7 days ago and planing to install in my backyard where it will get 6+hours sun. But the plant isn’t looking healthy since last few days. Kindly let me know how to take care of the plant .
I’ve never had an alocasia and she is just not having it😭 she’s in a self watering container. The water has plant food in it and I’ve tried her at the window and she didn’t like that and now she’s further away and still not liking it
Are these pests on my mint plant?
I bought this beautiful dieffenbachia about a month ago. It had no problems for the two weeks it was quarantined, but now that I put it in with my other plants it is developing these brown crispy spots. Is this because it needs more humidity? Or could this be a fungus? I’m worried about the tiny black dots in the brown crispy areas. I’ve looked closely and don’t see anything moving, so I don’t think it’s a pest problem. Thanks for any insights!
Can anyone tell me why her leaves are curling ? Nothing has changed 🥲
What’s going on with my spider plant? Could it be lack of light?
Polly looks wrinkled and has brown spots all over one leaf. Any advice or tips?
this morning i just noticed these holes on my inch plant. any idea what’s causing them?
Hi! My golden lace cactus Josephine has these brown divots (not sure what to call them) where she used to be a nice vibrant green. I’ve googled and tried the diagnostic feature of the app but I haven’t been able to find anything concrete. I’m hesitant to change the care schedule because while this has been going on for a few months it doesn’t seem to be affecting the growth of the cactus. Any insight or thoughts would be appreciated! Josephine is kept in the windowsill of a south facing window and I water per the app which is probably about 1x/month. Soil is never wet when I water her of course. I used a little liquid fertilizer as well.
No severe problems here. I just need some help identifying a few plants. I got these four as rescues with no labels and I want to make sure I’m caring for them right. I believe the second one is a begonia and the last a philodendron but I wanted confirmation on those just to make sure. Thank you!
I’m very confused and embarrassed 😬 this plant looked fine 3 days ago! I hadn’t watered it in a long time. I try to wait for my plants to tell me they need water. The peas were a little squishy not firm so I watered it thoroughly and put it back under the grow light. (It’s been under the grow light for a little over a month with no issues). Now today it looks like this!!!! WHAT DO I DO 😭😭😭
hi, i have a chinese money tree and i’ve found that each time a leaf gets about a little lower than midpoint, it falls off. the plant is growing consistently. is this normal?
