Hi smart plant people! My dad has a question about his monstera, if anyone could help that would be lovely! : I cut off 3 leafs that had nodes and aerial roots and put in a pot with moss soaked in water. Been 1 week and now tips getting brown/yellow. Is there too much water in moss? Should it be damp and not soaked? Maybe roots need air too? Or just stress from recent cutting? I put rooting hormone on cuts too. Please let us know what you think!
Hey gang Got my first rubber plant recently. She has a new leaf but I noticed this morning it’s drooping 😕 Any advice is appreciated
I found this little guy on the floor of my school library (that has plants) and needs help!
My fire bush croton suddenly has droopy leaves on one stem. It was really dry and the app suggested watering tomorrow so I went ahead and watered it hoping it might come back to life. There was another stem in this bunch that suddenly wilted then eventually died so I cut it, but I don’t want another one to go. It seems to have new leaves growing so I assume it’s healthy. It looks like some roots are starting to come out of the drainage holes, so maybe it’s time to repot? I don’t see any signs of pests or disease but I’m also a newbie. Any advice?
How can one basil plant be strong and yet yellow and the other perfect green but soft. This makes no sense lol

This leaf just finished fully blooming 2 days ish ago and is now curling up again. Is that normal?
My dieffenbachia’s newest leaf looks like it’s trying to unfurl but hasn’t pushed out the leaf all the way. It’s been like this for a few months. Any way to help it along?
Does it look like my cucumber sprouts are over- or under-watered ? :( they looked the same yesterday and seemed like they perked up after watering but started drooping again today, i’m scared to water more if they’re overwatered
Help! I opened a bag of potting soil to transplant a monstera and gnats came flying out! Do I return the bag of potting soil? Can I get rid of them somehow? TYIA
My raven zz plant has had its stalks start to fall, I have been mindful of not overwatering and only water when the soil is dried out. I have it in a partial sun/part shade area. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong 😩 any help is appreciated!!
gang, my rex begonia vine/cissus discolor is dying? maybe? or shedding leaves? but the leaves are UNALIVING THEMSELVES. the plant creates holes in the main vein of many leaves and they just die. I showed a picture of the same leaf in many angles. and a side view to show the dots are not bulging out! i have completely repotted and sprayed it off (which i read later that spraying the leaves is not good for this plant.. whoops). To be fair it was shedding LOADS for 2 days after the repot and now it is about 1 leaf drop every other day. As i repotted I saw that the stems near the base were yellowing, that has stopped but i know they’re not going to revert i can rule out thrips. **it has dots on it but they’re not thick specs** it came with dots
Hey, so my succulent plant the leaves were dying on one part so I put it outside to get a lot of sun, but it keeps dying and now some of the other others are also dying, and I was about to put it inside, but I don’t know what to do? Please help

What would cause my bird of paradise to have these black damage to its stem? I know my daughter’s puppy chewed it. Could that be why? Also, my gold dust croton is loosing leaves at the bottom.

Hi there, this is my first post on Planta, but it seems like a lovely and supportive community, and I could use some advice on my new Kentia Palm. I’m hoping that you experienced plant people can help! I’ve had my Kentia for just under a month, and in the last week, I noticed that some of her fronds are turning brownish grey and other leaves are getting yellow spots. The AI Planta Doctor said it could be the stress of moving, or issues with watering, light, or fertilizing. I haven’t fertilized her since bringing her home, per the instructions of the plant store, so it seems unlikely that that is the problem? I wonder if it’s not enough light, but I don’t want to add a grow light and burn the leaves, as I know Kentias prefer bright indirect light. Any instincts on what the problem might be and how I can turn it around? Photos attached. Thank you in advance for your thoughts!
Dead leaves on my chinese evergreen, is this normal?? I got her a month ago and water it once a week. She lives outdoors on an east-facing patio that gets direct sunlight from about 9am-2pm. Outside temps have been around 85 degrees (florida). The plant seems to be doing well besides these couple of leaves. Any info/tips would be greatly appreciated! :) 🪴💚
lambs ear, its in a window and ive been watering it when the app tells me to, im guessing its something simple wrong with it but im a newbie at this, any help would be appreciated <3
