I recently noticed these spots on a leaf of my otherwise healthy monstera. I've also noted a few scattered gnats hovering around the soil. Please advise. Edit it to add that I also just noticed some holes in this new leaf. See second photo.
An some one help me with this problem? I really don’t know how to fix it.
Hello Planta friends! Something weird is happening to my air plant. Any thoughts? Thank you so much in advance.
I got these jade plants and lavender kalanchoe in a larger arrangement that someone gifted me but since separating them, they’re not doing so well. The jade plants especially have developed brown and white spots (not totally sure if I’m seeing similar leaf spots on the kalanchoe). Does anyone know what they are/have recommendations? Could it be a fungal disease?
My fiddle leaf fig has been steadily dropping leaves for months now, and the last ones look bad. Considering lopping it off, need advice!
My avocado plant has been indoors for a1.5 months. It’s been cold outside. I try to water when the plant is totally dry and the leaves start drooping. The leaves have black areas on the tips. What is it? Should I cut the leaves off?
Potential overwatering and concern about gnats. Hi! I just repotted my plant, Cherri, for the first time since getting her. I know repotting in winter is risky but I could see her roots through the drainage holes and I could lift the entire plant and soil out of the pot. She was in a plastic starter pot from where I got her and is now in a glazed ceramic pot, 6 inches across, that has a hole on the botttom (shown in picture). I'm worried, though, as when I got my plants I also got potting soil - Organic Miracle Grow - and because it wasn't needed right away we put it in the garage for storage as our dog likes to get into EVERYTHING (except plants, which we find odd). It's been cold here, below freezing and typical severe midwest weather, so the soil was VERY cold... I have to sleep during the day and knew I wouldn't have time to do it this evening so I warmed some water for 15 seconds in the microwave and as I set up the soil into the new pot I mixed the soil with the water to warm it up as well as some of her original soil. I think I overwatered the soil but I didn't realize until Cherri was repotted so I spent about 15 minutes sitting there trying to soak up water through the drainage hole on the bottom, and I added some drier soil on top in hopes that would help. Another concern is gnats. I read online that organic matter isn't good, and my last plant who I tried to repot - Groot, the lucky bamboo, who moved from a water habitat to soil as a last resort because of root rot - had a bit of white mold(?) growing over where he died and around him, and we were noticing a few gnats around the house in the middle of a really bad winter which we found odd... and I'm worried they came from the soil which I used for Cherri. My questions are as such: did I do enough for the potential overwatering and should I just get new potting soil that was kept inside and repot again?
After noticing my plants having random brown spot in leaves I closely checked them all and noticed these small bugs crawling on the soil. I believe they are called THRIPS. Can someone please help me!!🥺 How or what can I do? Please I beg you
Is my exotica yellowing? I’ve only had this plant for a month and I’m not sure if I’m watering it correctly yet. I water when the leaves start to all curl a bit but not fully curled. The top two (used to be newest) leaves look yellowing but maybe it’s just that they’re newer and developing their color? I know new leaves are lighter (I have a brand new leaf this week that’s very light) I’m feeling worried I ruined my plant before getting to know its needs :( it’s very cold where I am so I don’t want to repot yet. Any suggestions?
Hello :) I noticed that my peperomia lost a lot of leaves recently, and some brown spots appeared underneath a few of them.. Any idea what it could be? Doesn’t look like any pest that I know. Could it be due to the watering? TIA 🤞🏼
Hi guys, Very new to plants (less than a month) I bought this little guy a week ago and and he has this already. The day I bought him I repotted and watered, have done nothing since. He gets lots of indirect light and some direct in the afternoon. Is this pests? What should I do?
Anyone know what these spots could be? It started as one a few weeks ago and I noticed two more today. Doesn’t feel squishy. It is next to a south facing window maybe sun or cold? TIA!
I left my plant in the window overnight and this how I woke up to it this morning
Just saw a few of these guys on my Jade plant. There's not many, and no signs of damage or anything yet, but what is this? How do I get rid of it?
Not sure what I am seeing on the inner part of my BOP leaf. Is this something pest related ? Only on this one leaf that I see
So my orchid is super droopy and the leaves are wrinkly. I’ve followed all the steps on the app and she still isn’t doing great. I’ve also had her for two years now. Does anyone know what is wrong with her?
Got a small mealy bug problem! Ugh…I’m trying not to feel overwhelmed but I am! From your experience how difficult are they to treat? I’ve been using q-tip with alcohol and neem oil.
What did I do to my boobie cactus? It just arrived last week. Maybe just travel stress, or does it look overwatered?
Hi everyone, I hope your day is going well. I was hoping to get some help with this plant. When I first bought it, the leaves got the spots on it not too long after I bought it. Since then, it's had many new leaves and I cut off the old ones now the new leaves are getting these spots. It is by a humidifier, and I let it dry out at least 3/4 of the way before I water. Planta says that it is possibly overfertilization. I use a liquid fertilizer that is supposed to be used with every watering. .05 mil. to half a gallon. I'm hoping to get a second opinion. Thank you in advance 😊
My pepper plants were doing great, then suddenly they started to wilt. I watered them and it didn’t seem to help?
