This pothos keeps pushing out ugly leaves! It doesnt have direct sunlight, but lots of grow light and indirect light. I recently up-potted it so I am hoping that will improve the fresh growth. Has anyone else had a pothos that pushed out wrinkly/brown spotted leaves?

I have a bunch of pothos cuttings i was propagating in a jar, just took a look at them today and these white bumps are appearing on some of the roots? I haven’t had a chance to plant them yet because I had to get a bigger pot but is something wrong with them?

Hi, I recently purchased the below Monstera plant and it’s leaves looks slightly withered/ripped and light green. Does anyone know what I can do to try to revive this plant or is this normal? First time monstera plant owner any tips or tricks would be helpful. Thank you!

Pardon the stupid question but can houseplants get pests if they are only indoors? None of mine have any problems but I was wondering if it’s something I need to pay attention to. ✌🏻

Does anyone know what this is inside my wandering Jews water. They are just stars and barely have any roots so i don’t want to plant some of them yet but they continue to get this green stuff. I change the water and add one drop of liquid fertilizer.

I have had this peace lily for over a year now and it used to have beautiful flowers. Recently it has started to get yellow leaves and dry patches on the ends of its leaves and I’m not sure why. Also it’s always been in the same spot.

My gf and I moved to a new place 6 days ago and our once thriving aloe plant is now brown and sad af :( we had it on the top of our cabinets at the old house about 15 feet from the windows and rarely watered it and it was so happy. We watered it a few days before moving and then put it outside here at the new place for about 2/3 days and in that short amount of time it has taken a huge turn for the worse. Please help

help!! i have a small bird of paradise that lives in my home with indirect sunlight but yesterday, because it’s starting to get sunny, i decided to place it outside. today was a very hot day and it seems to have gotten sunburnt & shriveled up on the leaves. correct me if i’m wrong but i thought these plants thrived on full sunlight? the soil was very dry so i watered it but it still seems sad so i removed it from the balcony. where is the best place to keep the plant & what should i do?

I have this jade plant which i got from one of my neighbour but the leaves keeps on dropping. The soil is also thick as rock not sure if the soil is suppose to be that way. I can repot it but i an scared all leaves will fall off as they have become so delicate.

Does anyone have experience growing Elephant ear bulbs indoor. I have some and they won’t unfurl their leaves. Someone had mention getting Sphagnum moss and putting in on top of the soil. Anyone else have tips? (Plant is facing the south)

Help!! I have had this string of dolphins for a while now. It has been getting bright indirect sunlight and I moved it under a grow light for 12 hours a day a few days ago. I have given it succulent food as well. But I don’t know what’s wrong with it. It was all green and fine 4 days ago, and now it looks like this. 🙁 Any advice is appreciated!

My lovely ficus, and long time good friend, has been dropping a few tiny leaves recently. I just picked up one that looked like this with tiny white spots in the back of the leaf. Can anybody identify what this is? TIA. 🤗💚🪴
