Need advice on curing Rosa’s powdery mildew: I’ve got neem oil spray, baking soda, peroxide, peppermint oil, and some unscented antibacterial hand soap. Will any of those work? How much can I cut off without killing her? Does she need special care after getting chopped and covered in anti fungal stuff?

Anybody know what this is or how to get rid of him? I picked up a beautiful looking inch plant at a yard sale, came home to report, and several of these little guys were in the soil 😧😧

Can someone help me figure out why my Cuprea's leaves are facing downwards? It's such a beautiful plant, but I can't see it's leaves. Its a couple feet away from a window.

My son was gifted an air plant from his brother for Christmas. It came in this tall glass jar with a cork ball as stopper for the top. He was misting it pretty regularly and it was getting some light from his open window and a grow light. It looks super dry - is it dead? Is this even remotely salvageable? I know nothing about these plants.

Popped up literally overnight, same place as the other issues I’ve had with things appearing!

Does this look like damping off? my dill sprout started tipping over today so i checked out the roots and this is how it looks, is there any saving this?

My pepper plants have a little black on the stem “pit” like where the branch out meets the main stem. Any thoughts on why?

Hi everyone! Any thoughts on whether this guy is salvageable? If so, how? I had this plants for a few years and it’s just slowly died of root rot (I just joined Planta and learned about root rot). Anyway I tried water therapy, which did nothing. Then I let him dry out for a few days. Next repotted him in a succulent mixture and that went ok. Then I bottom watered him and he started turning yellow :( Is it time to send him to succulent heaven?

Lost almost all of a beautiful Frydek to spider mites a few weeks ago and had to do a radical cut back, scrubbed top and bottom of the leaves, treated the roots and moved it to leca. He looks like a shell of himself 😫 but I checked on him this morning ( he’s in isolation still) and dare I say I see NEW GROWTH!! I will have to cut back a couple more tiny leaves I hoped would survive but have clearly gone on to a plant place in the sky. Just excited to see there is hope and so far no other babies seem to have been infested. 🤞🏾

Hi guys! Very very very new plant parent here. Lots to learn and feeling occasionally overwhelmed. But this calathea has been just doing miserably since coming home. I’ve been lightly and slowly changing his conditions to see if he wants to positively respond to the changes, but he’s just getting worse and worse. Is it a lost cause, or is there something I am missing with this guy to help revive him?

One of my spider plants is mush lighter color than the others (see on right and then the color of plant on left for comparison). Is this an issue?

Hey there! New to this app and the plant world in general. I’m pretty good with outdoor plants but indoor… yikes! I inherited my parents fig. It’s a beautiful plant and I’ve had it for a few months. A few of the leaves have some brown tips on them, but I’m mostly concerned with the leaning. I had to repot it a few days ago because it outgrew the other. But it was leaning prior to that. This plant has to live!! Any and all advice welcome! It’s next to a west facing window. Probably the best spot I have for it in my house.

Can anyone tell me what this orange spot is? It’s in two of my black velvet leaves, I could couldn’t find evidence of any pests and it mainly shows in the front of the leaves. My best guess is sunburn but I’m not entirely sure as I’ve never seen it before.

Not sure what’s wrong? I watered it two days ago because I hadn’t in a while, but it’s still looking droopy. I have a west facing window, so maybe it’s not getting enough sun? Any advice?

is this reverseable? it started going yellow the other day and I’m not sure why I haven’t changed anything lately and the soil wasn’t wet. It’s still kind of hard like it has structure, but it’s yellow. I have it in water right now
