Hello, I recently purchased an alocasia infernalis. It’s only been two days, and one of the leaves stem’s has browned, drooped, and brown spots have popped up around the edges. I have it under a grow light, have a pebble tray underneath it, have a humidifier in the room, and just watered it 2 days ago… it may just been stressed because it’s in a new environment, but wanted to see if there are some experienced alocasia people that might know how to help?

My Snake Plant has some yellowing on the outer leaves as well as I’ve noticed it starting to droop just a bit. I think it’s because I was giving it filtered well water. I’m now giving it purified water but I was wondering if it will ever go back to normal color and stand straight up again?

I've had this ficus benjamina tree for a couple years now. It's been struggling! I finally decided to repot it today. I'm not sure what else I can do for it.... do I prune it, leave it alone..... Also, I have very persistent cats 😒 that like dirt. They are now all of a sudden super interested in getting into this pot. Does anyone have suggestions on how to cover the top of pots so cats can't get in? I've tried to make a makeshift cover!! I've used netting before- but I have one cat that isn't stopped by much.

Can I water all my houseplants with distilled/ filtered water? Do some actually prefer tap water? I noticed some of my plants are lime, fluoride, etc. sensitive/ don’t like tap water, I’m thinking of just watering all of them with filtered water. Any thoughts? Thank you!

My plant here, Hank, gets lots of sun but I’m not sure if he is getting too much or too little. I asked someone I know who is very experienced with plants if they knew what to do and they said he needs lots of sun but not direct sunlight. I put him on the ground near a sunny spot in my room but that was after I removed him straight from my window and he still has brown dry spots on his leaves. I also find that his soil gets dry fast so do I just need to move him? What do I do?

My dog has been eating my parlor palm. My dog is fine these aren't dangerous for him I'm pretty sure but my plant is not. You can see where he ate it. What do I do? I've been wondering about pruning the dead/eaten stuff but idk that might make it worse. Any advice?

First time Pest infestation….ughhhhhh. All of my plants got infested with mealy bugs, thrips, spider mites, etc. used neem oil, captain jacks insecticide soap, and now Ferti-lome Triple Action Plus Disease & Mite Control Liquid. It’s week three. Just when I spray the shit out of them every 5 days. They keep come back! They are relentless and frustrating. Just look at her. I don’t want to show my orchids, monstera or corn plant and other plants. 😭 I need advice!!! Should I just throw it away. I haven’t been sleeping well because of this shit show. Please what do I do?

I’m a new gardener, and I noticed on my pepper plants, near the nodes- there is a black funk/spot growing. Not the leaves, just the nodes. Any idea what it is or what to do?

This fellow is struggling to stand up straight. It was not over watered, it was dry yesterday and droopy so I gave him some water. Now he's even droopier:( you can see from the planta photo that it was really healthy when I first got it

My Zebra plant seems to be doing well, and he is nice and green on top and inside his leaves, but some of his outer/bottom leaves are kinda brown. They've been like this awhile, but I'm slightly concerned for my little guy and want to make sure he is as healthy as he can be. If anyone knows why his leaves are the way they are, please let me know. Thanks!
