Why is she sagging like this??? She’s under a grow light 16 hours per day, there’s a humidifier in the room, I water every few days and they’re in Perlite. What am I doing wrong??

I was soaking my Xerographica last night and I noticed this white splotch. I picked at it with my nail and it didn’t move. It doesn’t feel particularly fuzzy. I also didn’t notice them anywhere else besides what’s shown in the photo. Could this be mealy bugs? Or just a particularly dense grouping of the normal white trichomes on the leaves? Should I try wiping at them with alcohol or spraying the plant with Neem oil just in case? I was hesitant to do that to an airplant for some reason.

Anyone know whats causing these grey spots on my watermelon peperomia? Just noticed it today when I went to water it but it’s been doing fine previously. It’s only on 2 leaves right now but I’m worried it will spread. help!

Hello all I posted about two months ago due to my plant having brown dried spots a breakage.. everyone suggested to use distilled water but it seems to be getting worse? Do I need to maybe change it to a bigger pot? Suggestions greatly appreciated please!

My snake plant, Kaa, continues to vex me. Is he okay? Why is half of him droopy while the other half is mostly straight? Why is half yellow instead of green? Should I cut the dead leaves (they’ve been dead for ages but won’t come off if I pull gently). He’s been like this the entire time I’ve had him (about a year). Please help!

Ahhhhh!!!! This plant arrived in the mail almost a week ago and I spotted this today 😭😭😭 I know it’s a mealy bug but I’ve never actually dealt with them before. I wiped it off with a q-tip and neem oil/soap spray, sprayed the rest of the plant, placed in a bag to quarantine. What else should I do? Do I need to change soil? Should I treat the other 2 plants that arrived with it too? I don’t want these to spread to my other plant babies!

Please help! My African Prayer Plant has had a lot of yellowing leaves recently 😭 how can I help prevent these? Is there anyway to reverse the ones that are yellow? FYI: I have a grow light over top the plant. I also live in an old house that isn’t insulated the best, and it’s by a window, so it can get chilly.

Hello new to plants in general. Just came across this majestic palm and had to buy it and see if it could be brought back to full health. I just repotted into a slightly larger pot and watered it completely till some water seeped from the bottom. Is there anything else that should be done in order to get it to full health?

What is wrong with my monstera? She had little white stuff that wasn’t fuzzy on her leaf and kind of something that looks like if you found oil on your shirt on her leaves. And leaves were growing in with almost burnt like spots and a little crispy.

Anything thoughts on what may be going on with my Zinnia? I started it from seed indoors under a grow light— it will likely remain indoors due to my north-facing balcony. I noticed that the light may have been too close to the leaves causing brown edges. I adjusted the light’s height, but I am concerned about the recent drooping and spots (no visible pests).

Hello! I got a philodendron cutting, after it grew long roots in water I repotted it into soil. When I first got it around 6 months ago, it was growing a new leaf but it fell off when it was still tiny. Ever since the end just looks like this. Do I need to trim this part off in order for new leaves to grow?? Im new to owning philodendrons and have another with this same issue (both pics included)
