Hi! I have these tiny little bugs that are crawling and in the dirt of my plant and I’m not sure what they are or how to kill them😭. If anybody could help, I would appreciate it. They are in all of my plants and aren’t super visible until I disturb the soil and then they all begin crawling around.

Are the baby yellow ones okay, or should I remove them? I just watered them on Monday. 😶

My baby rubber plant is looking very dull and a bit sad i think? I noticed a lot of tiny new growth had dried up and died, which i picked off already. I water her according to plantas advice, and today the soil was BONE dry when i watered it. Plus she’s in a pretty low light spot, should i move her somewhere brighter? And possibly water a bit more often?

What are these and what needs to be done bc I don’t want to harm the flowers or baby peppers? They are so yum and Peppa is one of my plant babies I’m most excited about and invested in now. I have had this for awhile now. Yes I know it got some water and will get more tonight.

Hello all! I have recently bought a house. With said house came all kinds of beautiful plants... but they were not properly cared for. They have fallen leaves all inside of the pots. Should I just replant them and start over fresh? I've never actually been able to keep anything alive so far so any and all help would be appreciated!

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!
