I left my house for about a week and I came back in these leaves turned brown. Should I cut them off or just wait until they fall off?

I transferred my snake plant into a smaller pot and it still looks like it dying :(. I'm lost on what to do to help it

Please help! I got this whale fin sansevieria a couple weeks ago. I checked its roots when I got it and noticed a rotten spot. I cut it back, sprayed with hydrogen peroxide, doused in cinnamon and switched to a better draining soil. I left it alone (no watering) in hopes of it bouncing back. I checked it today and saw mold and the spot getting bigger 😭 I’ve cleaned up the spot and sprayed with diluted hydrogen peroxide again. Should I be treating it with something else? Should I cut it vertically and just bank on the new pup being successful? All help is appreciated!

Yall I found what I think are thrips AND spider mites on my elephant ear plant! I panicked and cut off the leaves where I saw them and I put it outside, now PLEASE help me treat it😩 I’m hoping I caught it early and it didn’t spread to my other plants!

My hyacinth bulbs were doing well until I noticed these issues today… I planted 2 bulbs like 7wks ago and this morning one of them has a dark hole on its leaf, and the other one is opening up but looks brown inside? Is this normal or is it rotting? Surely it shouldn’t look like that inside? I also read somewhere that they go dormant over summer, which is basically now.. did I just plant them at the wrong time of year? Any advice welcome, I don’t want them to die🫣

Hey could anyone help me identify the problem with my petunia plants? I don’t see any pests and they seem to be growing new bigger leaves each day so they’re not dying I don’t think… but what are these brown marks/holes? Its only a couple of leaves, not the entire plant, but it’s happened to both pots (I have one pot with 4 and one pot with 2 planted) so I’m confused on what it could be?

Hi Guys. My draco plant doesn’t seem the happiest. It has developed dry, brown areas on some of the leaves. I’m sticking to the watering schedule but it doesn’t seem to be getting better. Any suggestions?

Hi friends! I have a Zamioculas Zamiifolia and it just seems really unhappy. Leaves have been falling off like crazy. Originally I think it’s because I wasn’t letting her soak up water over night, but I adjusted the watering method and she’s still losing a ton of leaves. Any ideas?

I have an alocacia dragon tooth plant and it started to flower so I removed the flowers and now one of the leaves are yellowing and drooping! I just bought the plant which was healthy 2 weeks ago and have not repotted and only have watered 2x. What should I do?

Hey do you think there’s something wrong with my plant or do you think it’s just a little too much sun?

Any idea if this is water related or pest related?
