Hello everyone, I hope you are all having a wonderful day! My day has just gotten a bit better a friend who said she is killing her for leaf has gifted it to me. I'm hoping I can get your advice on the problem with it and how to take care of it. I've always been a little shy at getting a fiddle leaf. I hear there a little finicky. This one has dry edges on a number of the leaves. It has been losing leaves. She has recently repotted it in what looks like a very Spagna Moss type dirt. I would like to repot it into something chunkier and better draining. Should I do it right away? And what do you think the problem is as far as the leaves? I appreciate any advice and help. TIA.😊

I planted these Blackhawk’s Bug Bluestem perennial grasses and they are very unhappy. Can someone give advice on how to revive?

Hi. This morning during routine plant chores I found this curled leaf with webbing and spider mites on it. I've treated with dish soap and I've ordered Bios Plant Soap but it's in Canada and I'm in Texas so it's going to be a bit before it arrives. I haven't been able to find a definitive answer on whether I can use Captain Jack's Dead Bug on houseplants (I can get it tomorrow). What do y'all say? Captain Jack's to the rescue? Or no? Thank you. *ETA - I appreciate the suggestions for other methods, I'm trying to find out about Captain Jack's Deadbug specifically.

I planted some sugar pumpkins in late April to early May in solo cups. But a few weeks ago I accidentally dropped them down some steps, and they all spilled out of their cups and it was very chaotic. They all survived but I've been noticing some yellow leaves on them. They have been outside in heavy rain and aren't getting very much sun. That's because I've been keeping them under an umbrella to protect them from the rain. Does anyone know what is wrong or what I should do? I'll insert a picture of what they look like.

Just wanted to share a few non chemical tips for getting rid of fungus gnats! My soil bins got majorly infested with fungus gnats. I put my lidded bins outside on a hot day for several hours and it baked all the gnats off and I no longer have an infestation in my bulk soil. For my plants I use mosquito bits in my watering can as well as having two zeevo max plug ins and a zeevo wall plug in and it works great! I have a very large plant room so I need lots of coverage. If you use zeevo plug ins Amazon has off brand bulk refills that work great and are cheaper. Hope it helps!

does anyone know why the leaves on my aloe at the bottom keep turning red/orange/yellow and drying up and then I have to cut them off and now my aloe is bare at the bottom? it gets a lot of sun so I though it might be sunburn so I moved it out of the sun but it kept happening. The only other thing I can think of is too small of a pot?

I’m trying to grow some Bonsai Lotus plants, and everything seemed fine until it rained last weekend, then I started getting algae in my pot. Need some suggestions to save my plants from the algae, without killing them!!!🫣 Oooorrrrrr, am I over reacting?🤷🏾‍♂️

One of the leaves of my plant seemed to be dead but some slimy, oey, goey stuff came out of the leaf 🍃 What should I do and what is happening to my plant? 🌱 Please comment back if you have any ideas on what I should do and if you know what is happening to my plant. 🪴 Thank you so much ☺️ I really appreciate it 🙏🏼

Need suggestions please. My monstera was overwatered and drowning. I repotted it with fresh potting soil, mixed in some of the original soil for familiarity, and removed the dead/rotten roots in the process. Pruned the dead leaves after repotting. Watered it very, very lightly about a week ago. Followed all other recommended care instructions, but it still looks rough. Is there hope for it? What else should I do?

Hi guys! I think my Tí plant has been a bit sick. First, noticed she had spider mites and have been treating her with Captain Jack’s Ready To Use Neem Max once a week while also misting daily to down out the mites Then I had gone on a trip and came back to see that she had dropped a ton of leaves (most were yellowing to begin with - but not all)… figured this may be due to overwatering so I let her sit out/dry for a bit. While she’s still got new growth, what else can I do to help her grow faster + heal? She’s bare now and wondering if she’ll fill back out. Thanks!

I saw a couple (not many) gnats by my money tree and I’m low-key freaking out thinking it may be the beginning of an infestation 😬😭 am I overreacting??

Help☹️ Everytime my Hoya Krimsom Queen buds a new white leaf, it shrivels up and falls off before maturing. She’s done this three times now - what can I do better to get them to survive?😭

My gardenia has mealy bugs and the leaves are turning yellow. I used insecticidal soap and pruned off the infected branches, but I think it’s time for alcohol treatment. It’s not absorbing water well, so I suspect it needs a larger pot so the substantial roots have more room. I know gardenias are tricky, and I live in an area that gets cold winters and minimal sun, so I bring it inside. I don’t know if I should keep trying or just give up. My climate is not ideal for a plant like this, which makes it even harder.

Just got this dragonscale alocasia. Unfortunately, it isn’t doing too well and I noticed it has a mealy bug problem. I sprayed it with diluted rubbing alcohol and dipped a qtip with rubbing alcohol and dabbed it onto some heavily infested parts as best as I could, but I’m not sure if I got them all. I haven’t repotted the plant yet but I will very soon. I’m trying to separate some of the corms in the soil and start propagating them in case the main plant doesn’t make it. Any tips?

I am trying to propagate a bunch of Sunpatients from my mother plant. The propagations are growing rather quickly but the foliage looks pretty rough with a bunch of spots. Any advice or treatments?

I have a desert rose that I pruned because it was wilting. It’s been two months, it hasn’t grown and it hasn’t died, just gotten pruny. Any way to save it and make it grow?

Just got an alocasia for the first time ever. Her soil pH, draining, light, watering, etc are all great. Was gone for a week where she was watered and given sunlight but no humidity. Is that what’s wrong?
