Hey everyone! I just bought this fig tree and saw these leaves after I brought it home. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Hiya, My poor Meyer lemon has been battling a mites infestation for basically its whole tenure with me. We’ve tried washing each leaf, insecticide sprays, hosing down, and at the most extreme point removing it from the pot, hosing down and scrubbing with dawn from root to leaf, cutting off basically all its branches and scrubbing down its pot and then repotting in fresh soil. No dice. They’ve always returned, so now I just treat it weekly to a misting of lightly soapy water and do a monthly scrub down of each leaf and stem. This has managed to keep it pretty content and even flowering just no fruit which is fine. BUT, today during our monthly spa session I noticed two of these on the underside of leaves. It doesn’t look like mealy bugs, or Thrips eggs but what on earth is it?? I scrubbed it off and really sprayed that area but any identification help is greatly appreciated!

I am not sure what type of orchid this is (I’ve attached a picture of it when it had flowers), but I have had it for about 3 months now. I received it as a gift and . It’s been doing pretty well, however recently the end of the branch/stem is turning yellow and brown. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to stop this???

Hey there! Do you think these will propagate? I got them from my friends succulents after she allowed my propagation!! ♥️ 🤫

Need help figuring out what’s wrong with my Monstera- it looked like this when I got it from Home Depot and it’s been around 2 weeks now and it hasn’t gotten any better. I repotted it into a bigger pot the day I brought it back, and it does have drainage. One leaf has the yellowing and the other leaf is really droopy. I’ve been misting and watering as recommended by Planta but it hasn’t looked any better :( Any idea on what’s wrong?

My calathea is infested with gnats. I’ve already tried to treat them with a store bought soil mix in but it seems like it made it worse. Do I have to repot her? I just repotted her a few weeks ago from the nursery pot

Hi all, First post here! My Pothos has been struggling for a bit and I would love some insight. Google suggested might be overwatering so I had taken a break but still turning yellow and shrivelling. Has been repotted in the last 6 months as well! I look forward to hearing your insight :)

Okay guys! I just checked my snowball succulent to see if the water was hydrophobic or if there was root rot, and has soon as I got it out of the pot, water started dripping from the soil…. I squeezed the soil a bit and tons of water came out of it! Is it time for a repot? IS the water hydrophobic? Root rot?! Help me!!

Does anyone know what’s going on with my Rex Begonia Vine? It’s a rescue from my Sister’s house that was improving rapidly but suddenly got these spots. They are only on one of the new vines.

Anyone know what these little guys are? been wiping them away with a neem oil / water / peroxide solution for the past two months but they keep coming back. finally ordered this insect control to be used when watering, hopefully it will help. Any suggestions?

Looking for advice on how to keep my Lily alive! It’s starting to droop. Is it because of temperature? Watering? Sunlight?

Looking for some advice plant friends. A friend of mine lent me this begonia to try and save. It was in a 6 inch pot and suffering, leaves losing color and yellowing. Upon further inspection the roots were looking fine and healthy. but severely root bound. I put it in a 8 nursery pot but cut it to fit in the decorative pot they brought over, (due to lack of drainage) and I thought they would have a better shot being able to see the root system. So my friend doesn’t want to cut the leaves that are yellowing, personally I think they have to right? Idk. Looking for any, and all advice. I had to break up the root ball, so I don’t want to further stress the plant. It’s hard to see but there are two canes here.

Peace lily is growing leaves with brown spots. I have had her for years, but recently has been growing leaves with brown spots and tips. As you can see in the photo one leaf is still unfurling and has brown on the tip. Any suggestions?

Need advice, I got this cutting of a monstera roughly three weeks ago. It was very well rooted in a cup of water, I rinsed and untangled the roots, used peroxide to make sure no root rot bacteria was present, and put in my normal house plant soil mix of soil/perlite/ orchid bark. It gets plenty of indirect light, the room is humid about 60-70% most days. I use plantas watering schedule and it’s been watered twice now. It has a smaller leaf that seems to be doing okay for now. Is it repot shock, lack of fertilizer?? Anyone have any ideas.

What is this 😭 I know everyone says mealybugs but I haven’t seen any bugs and I don’t really see cotton stuff. I did have mealybugs on one plant. I treated them and then suddenly all my plants are dying and have sooty mold. Both my home and office plants. Mine at home, you can’t even see anything except that major damage.

My plant is wilting and I don’t know why. I water it once a week. It’s been slowly dying for the past month. What should I do.

Does anyone know if this works to get rid of the adult fungus gnats? I already have a product I add to the water to kill the babies in the soil, but the adults still fly around.

Any idea what could be going on with my rubber tree? It’s leaves are very small & kind of curled down. It’s been this way for over a year - still growing plenty of leaves but they look pretty odd.
