So I’ve had this aloe plant for about 3 years and after I moved it began to get really skinny and lose leaves. I repotted it when it was big but now it’s a little small. Should I repot back in a smaller pot? Any suggestions on how to recover the plant? It still continues to grow new leaves but they die pretty quickly or stay thin and shrivel up. I water it about every 3 weeks.

The leaves of my pilea peperomioides have turned into a light green color recently and has white dots and I’m not sure what the problem is. The soil does stay wet for a while but it’s been growing in this pot since March and had not had a root rot problem. One of the leaves started getting this brown spot too. Is this a sign of overwatering? I’m thinking it might be root-bound too as it’s growing two plantlets too and had some roots poking out of the drainage hole. #help!!

Hi everyone! I bought this Calathea Dottie plant about a month ago, and within the first few days of bringing it home it immediately started to curl and wilt. I repotted it into a different pot and thought it might’ve been overwatered. Ever after repotting and being very careful about overwatering, pruning its dead leaves, only using distilled water, and fertilizing it I cannot get her back to life. Please help! I was so excited to have my first Calathea and she is STRUGGLING

I thought this was a snake plant because that’s what planta said it was, but now I’m pretty convinced it is a Hoya (thank you to everyone who commented on my previous post). I have never had a Hoya before, so I am new to taking care of it. Some of the roots are growing out of the 4 inch pot it came in. I was thinking of repotting it. I only have a 6 inch pot right now. Is that too roomy for its roots? Should I get a 5 inch instead? Since it just arrived is it too soon to repot it?

The dirt in my little pothos's pot seems to be growing mold, is it actually mold and should I be worried???

My poor peace lily (I call him Binkleman) is going through a rough patch. I just put him in a different pot, new soil, because I suspected drainage issues, he looked like this for weeks before repotting, but he isn’t bouncing back. Any advice? He’s been with me since 2013 and I’d be sad to lose him!

I have grow this China Doll from a 1” tall seedling and it has been a constant challenge. I FINALLY got it in a situation where it was getting the light it wanted and instead of stretching out it started filling in…and then all of a sudden this has happened. Over the last 5 or 6 days the branches are just dying. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

I keep getting these spots on my Monstera. I believe they are fungal. Any suggestions on how to best treat? I have new growth and have already replanted it.

Help, my painted lady lost her baby! I posted here a while ago about how incredibly nervous I was taking care of a sempervivum. Everyone was wonderful and helpful and the antithesis to the aggressive “you’re doing EVERYTHING WRONG” attitude on other plant forums. To my surprise and suspicion, that plant is still alive! Having an incredibly hard time rooting, but…that’s for another post. Thank you to everyone who helped keep my plant alive! I’ve added three more plants to my collection, including this painted lady who has been doing well up until the last few days. I noticed a few times that small leaves would dry up and fall off of the “tail” and I wasn’t too worried. This plant was shipped to me, so I figured it would take a few weeks to “settle in” (it was introduced to light slowly, has been on Planta recommended watering schedule, if not a little longer between) and the tail seems to be fully dying. I’m not sure if it’s part of the growth cycle, if it can be trimmed(?), or if there’s anything I should do. She has lost some lower leaves (a few that were dying when she arrived) and I used a clean plastic stick to carefully move them off and away from the plant without “ripping” any still-living leaves off. That seemed pretty normal for an echeveria with leaves that are close to soil and getting such little light, and isn’t a recurring problem. I can leave it alone fairly easily (overbearing plant parent) but it seems like it’s angry at me and I’m not sure what to do. I can add more detail if needed — any advice is appreciated! I don’t know how this plant is supposed to act! Also: I use, for four ~2” plants, two 10w grow lights, plus another that I’m *almost certain* is also 10w but leaves a bit to be desired. If I’m awake (could be as long as from 7 am to 11 pm) they are getting light. I’m not even sure how to check for root rot without absolutely traumatizing them, but I can see visible drainage when I water and I’m just…so confused. I tagged the plant in the post so that the original “tail” is visible.

First time trying to grow baby lettuces indoors. Love the little set up…except I came back into my kitchen to see two lil ‘pest-dents’ in the dirt. Guilty party tried to pretend-sleep, as if she didn’t do it. Flippers going on asap 🩴….or plastic cover. 🪴😁

Please help me! She’s a Dieffenbachia. When we first got her she had several leaves but they all turned brown and fell off. I’ve repotted her and she had hardly any roots. Since then she has struggled growing. All her new leaves are growing in brown and moist. They have a hard time unfurling. Please any tips would be appreciated, we received her from my bf’s grandmas funeral so she’s important.

I'm new to houseplants and I'm really struggling with my swiss cheese monstera. I have it under a grow light and I'm very careful about overwatering. Some of the leaves are wilting and browning and I don't know why. Any suggestions?
