Apparently I struggle with overwatering and just being nervous in general about my new plants’ moisture levels. Are watering globes a good investment?

My silver dragon is dying I think. I thought by transferring it to Leca it would thrive more and it didn’t. So I put it back in soil took off the roots that had root rot and added root drops to the most recent watering. Need help! What’s going on? This is a before and current picture

My cactus is struggling suddenly. It has some graying spots along the shoots and a yellow spot around the base. It’s located in an eastern facing window where it’s been for the past 3 years. The soil is very dry and the spots don’t feel super mushy or super dry. I can’t tell if it’s from sun burn or root rot 😅 Any ideas?

I got this little Christmas cactus as a freebie and its roots look fuzzy. Is this normal or a fungi?

Hi all! My Lady Valentine Chinese Evergreen hasn’t grown for months. I’ve given her slow release fertilizer pellets and moved her to my sunniest window, but nothing’s changed. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Hey all, my bf and I just got this plant a few weeks ago at Lowe’s and it’s been doing really well until this past week I can’t tell if it’s overwatered or underwatered? I’m sure my cats biting it hasn’t helped and it probably needs more light, but I want to make sure I’m not underwatering it?

What are the brown spots on my hoya ’crinkle 8’? I tried to look into it and i feel like it could be edema. I just hope it’s not a disease. It’s only on these few new-ish leaves, and hasn’t appeared on the rest of the plant.

Is this a problem? I’m worried these are spider mites and have no idea if it’s a big problem or not. I have never seen this on any of my plants and it’s only on 2 of them. Any advice is welcome, tips and tricks to get rid of it too please.

I’ve posted recently about soil mold so I ordered some orchid soil and some cactus soil. Would a mixture of those 2 plus regular soil be good for all my plants? I plan to leave the orchid in its bark mixture. It seems like the mold and other issues I’ve had so far have been from overwatering even though I’ve been following Planta’s recommendations.

My jade plant is happy and growing big ! I'm so proud of her. I only just now realized that her leaves seem kind of flat. Aren't they supposed to thick and plump ? Is this normal ? Any tips ?

I have my money tree plant which has one trunk that is very squishy and feels rotted badly. I noticed that the trunk doesn’t actually lead to any leaves, so wondering if it’s been bar since I got the plant and I only just noticed. Anything I can do to try and save that trunk?

I’m a little bit sad. I am new to houseplants. I got this Marble Queen Pothos about three weeks ago and had them repot her at the shop. I have watered her 2-3 times and added this trellis last week. She has one large leaf that is yellowing and her nearby new growth is limp with brown stems. I haven’t watered her in a week because I can feel that the soil is still wet through the drainage hole. What am I doing wrong?/how do I heal her? Thank you!

Can someone tell me what’s wrong with my Aubrieta? I transplanted it about 4 days ago. I mixed the clay soil with compost. It was very pot bound. It gets full sun and I’ve been watering daily due to the look of the stems. each plant is showing signs of flower buds at the top but the bottom looks very white/feel dry/brittle. And I’m assuming it’s having sun scorch due to the leaves turning red.

Hey !! So my Spider plants tips were getting that browning crispy look right so I searched etc etc and it said it can be because I was using regular water to water them and not filtered water. However, I switched to filter water 3 weeks ago and it’s still getting it. Am I doing something wrong ?? And also one of the vines they produced with a baby spider on it turnt burn at a certain spot too.
