OK, so this is a saladette tomato plant store-bought at this size I’ve only had it, today will be the third day and just since this morning I have noticed some kind of white powdery texture on some of the leaves. This morning, the leaves looked a little wrinkly, but it’s much worse this evening It almost looks like overspray from spray paint, but if I rub it with my finger, it rubs away and the leaves are starting to look almost wrinkly and really dry, and also on one of the leaves there’s discoloration and a spot that looks burnt. I’ve been watering as directed , It’s been getting alot of direct sunlight. I put it in the garage at night with my other seedlings , We don’t keep cars in there. Is there something I need to do or is this tomato plant sick? Please helppp

I noticed cobweb like stuff on my hydrangeas, and I can see tiny little pests which I’m thinking are spider mites. How do I get rid of this? What causes it?

Better pic of Seymour with out the bloom do have a couple more questions should I give it water every day so it stays moist. I’ve had so many people tell me that I should water it once a week or once every other week or keep water on it at all time and I’m just really confused. Also Seymour caught a daddy long leg. Are those OK for them to eat and why does it have, some yellow spots on some of the plants is that normal or is there something wrong with it? and I’ve never really been quite sure on how much water I should put in its little tub. and is it OK to give the flytrap room temperature filtered water?

I am interested in purchasing nematodes to address fungus gnats. Does anyone have any recommendations for where to purchase them from? Thank you in advance! 😊

Hello! So recently got my little scindapsus treubii moonlight and the tips of its leaves are starting to slightly brown. Is this a concern? Anything I should do? It’s in a 2 inch nursery pot, I water it when the soil gets dry but sticking my finger in it feels a bit rooty. My house is usually around 50-60% humidity, it’s been isolated since I got it, not around any drafts and I keep it by an east facing window. Thank you!!!

I repotted her into this hanging one, last week. There had been a few dead leaves and yellow ones I took off since then. And watered her last week. She’s usually hanging 2ft away from the window. Idk what she needs to get better.

A couple weeks ago I saved my VFT from my grandma who kept in over watering it and feed it dead flys I recently saw a bunch of yellow spots on it and all the plant traps look depressed except for one that about to bloom idk if it because I repotted it or what I’m just worried that it’s dying pls help

My corn plant is 50 years old if you can believe that! (I’m bragging!) I would guess that your baby might not be getting enough water. I let mine get dry before I water it, but I’ve noticed that if I use the stake method to test for moisture, that I have ended up with dried tips. See what others will tell you. Good luck!

I took some better pictures of this
”thing” on my schismatoglottis “red sword”. I figured out that the plant is droopy because of too much draft or too much sun, so I‘ve fix that. But, WHAT IS THIS GROWTH ON MY PLANT? it has doubled in size since the last progress report. I think it is something NASTY. 🤢

Hello!
For the past two week I have been trimming my corn plant and the tips keep browning and turning yellow starting at the tips. What do I do?

Ok this is my PROBLEM money tree. It was probably overwatered, but I have corrected that. Have I over corrected? Or is this just old overwatering damage? It’s so ugly lol

Hello. I have a couple lucky bamboo plants in water and on one plant a couple of the top leaves are starting to turn purple. I read online that it’s a phosphorus deficiency. Does anyone have any recommendations on remedies?
Lynda
What is this spot on my red sword? She has gotten all droopy today and I’m wondering if it has anything to do with whatever this is?

Hello everyone! Thank you to those who provided me tips before! I started to water less and I also used mosquito dunks to get the gnats away. They are totally gone now. I also transferred my lemon plant into a smaller pot, changed the soil to a citrus and cactus one so it has better drainage, and cut off some of the brown tips.
Unfortunately the plant still isn’t growing. After it lost most of its leaves, it hasn’t grown any more of them back and it’s been the same height for a long time. I’m not sure what to do anymore.
