my hoya has had mealy bugs ever since i could remember. she’s grows non stop but the bugs will. not. leave. i have tried so many things MULTIPLE times. I’ve tried: -soaking the entire plant in a cinnamon bath -spraying diluted rubbing alcohol on the plant and in the soil. it kills the bugs on contact but the next day they’re back again -i bought a pest spray specifically designed for mealy bugs -ive repotted the plant (shes HUGE) please help me!!
Hi everyone Are these roots rotted or not?
I purchased this ZZ plant last week. I did repot, as it was absolutely trying to bust out of the container from the nursery. I now have this one shoot that is yellowing and unhappy. Soil is damp but definitely not over wet. The rest of the plant seems quite happy and healthy. Do I cut this little guy off?
guysssss i need to repot some plants today and started putting this soil i got a few weeks ago into the pots but noticed there’s literal mushrooms growing in here, does the whole bag need to be thrown out? I’m using the soil for vegetables
Hey all! So my lil Birds of Paradises recently had a bunch of new leaves come in (yay!), but two unfurled a little…wonky. One has a big mushy spot in the middle - it did seem to take longer than usual to unfurl…. And one is mostly yellow/white - it seems too have greened a little… Just wanted to check if this was anything to worry about… Thank you!
my crocodile fern has been dying a slow death since i got it last july. the leaves develop brown speckles at the edges, then the leaf fades and withers. no positive growth since i got it, any ideas on turning it around??
help! my calathea has slowly been dying, the leaves are turning yellow then brown. i’ve been following the correct mist/water/fertilization schedule, any tips??
Help! The oldest leaves on my Pothos are turning yellow and falling off at an alarming rate. This hasn't happened before, it's been doing well for a while. Does anyone know what might be going wrong? Not enough light? too much light? Too much water? Not enough water? Should I repot? I would appreciate advice, I don't want it to die and it's losing leaves faster than it grows them :(
Help please idk what happened to my plant☹️ I had noticed my plant was looking kind of weird so I go and I checked the soil and it’s soaking wet. I found out my daughter was helping me water the plants. Love that she loves to help. So I went took the plant out of the soil and it was soaked. I shock out as much soil from the root so I could get dry soil in there, repot it with dry soil, now I think it’s a goner I need help. Just noticed too there’s new buds right there under the leaf 🙀
I live in North Louisiana and this has been in my raised beds almost every morning when the soil is wet. It is tiny little bugs. Not sure what they are or how to get rid of them. My heirloom beans next to them also look terrible. Any idea what they might be? I have used diatomaceous earth several times but that doesn’t do anything. Any help is greatly appreciated! Update - Google AI says springtails or soil mites that help decompose organic matter. Not harmful to plants just means the soil is not optimal. Who knew 🤔
Just got a Mauritius lychee tree but it looks like it has leaf burn and its leaves are drooping I gave it shade and a bin of water but it’s a full sun plant so should I take it out of shade?
HELP! Does anybody know why my leaves are yellowing They are under a grow light maybe like 4 or 5in away from the plant I repotted them like 2 weeks ago I also saw these weird spots on the leaves I put them under the grow maybe 2 weeks ago. They weren’t under them previously
She wasn’t like this yesterday! I just got this plant and watered her yesterday. The pot has drain holes and I used bottled water. I have her in my office about 3-4 feet from the window. Am I doing something wrong? How do I fix her :(
First time treating root rot and im so anxious 😭 I could tell there was a bit of root rot even at the nursery but I was feeling over confident lol after the operation there were a ton of healthy looking roots left so i took that as a good sign, however the base of the roots felt brittle so i was terrified of snapping the whole root system off! I tried to add a second moss pole once repotted, but i heard a crunch sound when i pushed down and was sooo scared that i was snapping the roots off 🥲 Anyone have experience treating monsteras? Think he’ll pull through?
Guys what’s wrong with my majesty palms? They are in a bathroom that gets humid and great light. I have bio fungicide and pesticide that I can do as a precaution (which I’ve done before and it worked) but I don’t know what else to do
Help! Idk what’s wrong with her. When I got it, it had a few brown spots but it definitely seems as if they have grown. The rest of the plant is healthy and is growing new leaves, so I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. The second to last picture is the day I got it and the last is from today. TIA
Hi! Can someone help me determine what’s wrong with my succulent? It sits in the back behind some of my other plants and I just now noticed its state. I did find clover mites on it (only one or too) and it looks like this now. Should I cut it all the way down and start over or will it be okay? TIA
Hi plant lovers. This is my son’s lucky plant that isn’t so lucky. Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong here? He has only had it for a few months and kept it indoors in a room with lots of light. This is the pot it came in not sure if it should be repotted? Is it a watering problem?
I caught two tiny bugs ~0.7mm from my 2 inch calathea what are those? Spider mites? Which kind of it? Should I worry about it?
Houseplant newbie here … I recently noticed a whitish sheen and some spots on a few of the leaves of my Living Lace Davana. I used the Dr. Planta diagnose function and it said the issue was dry air. Does that seem right based on the photo? Some of my own Dr. Google research unearthed the possible diagnoses of powdery mildew or water spots/calcium deposits. Really hoping it’s not powdery mildew... I try to mist regularly and I live in zone 7a. Thank you for any ideas/advice!
