I have two money trees. They are each in an eastern facing window. One has been thriving and one is just doing OK. I couldn’t figure out what was wrong with the one downstairs and today I noticed what looked like a fine yellow powder on top of the soil. Does anyone have any idea what that could be? I forgot to take pictures of the bad soil, but the attached picture is of my struggling and healthy money tree. One difference I’m pretty sure of is that the one that isn’t doing as well was in miracle-gro potting soil and the one that is thriving is in a chunky soil blend I get from my local nursery. I have seen Adrian say it but my experience also backs up that the miracle-gro soil is terrible. I repotted it and used the chunky soil blend today.

Hi! I've had this "cold hardy" banana plant for about two weeks and we repotted him because he was extremely root bound (breaking apart the plastic nursery pot and bursting), and now that he's in our apartment he is turning yellow and brown? We have humidifiers and a grow light and he's not near any AC vent. Other tropical plants are doing well in the same space but this seems off. Help?

Noticed this on the roots of my ficus Audrey when I took her out of her nursery pot to repot, any ideas what this could be?

Hi everybody, I live in South Carolina. I’ve never seen this before. Can someone please tell me what is it. It was not there yesterday. Thank you all in advances for your help.

As you can see, the base of my Love Heart plant is a really weird colour and has been for a little while now. It gets partial sun but never direct sunlight. Any ideas?

My Norfolk Island Pine has 1 bigger healthy, lush stalk and three smaller, dry stalks. The dry stalks have been this way for several weeks in spite of improved watering schedule and fertilizer. Is it okay to cut them at the soil level or will that damage the healthy main plant?

Help! I just got this stingray and it was doing fine until I repotted it and now within days it’s leaves are yellowing. I used a chunky soil, and it receives morning light and afternoon shade here in this window

My Fiddly Fig has a bad fungus gnat infestation and I’ve tried neem oil and cinnamon for a few weeks now. I think we just need a repot. BUT I just noticed two new leaves peeking out this morning. Should I wait until the leaves are established before repotting?

I got an H.F. Young Clematis a few months ago and it has been a constant battle to keep it alive. I pruned it and it seemed to be thriving but I came home one day to a stem torn out of the soil. Another day, I came home to find one that appeared cut off, and then another day I came back to find another cut in the middle but still hanging onto one of the other twining branches. It should have had 5 new stems with flowers growing but now I'm left with two. I moved it to the back where the sunlight isn't as intense and is more accessible to rain (we haven't had rain the last several days though-i've just watered them) because I believed it was being burnt by the sun as well as the marigolds I'd planted around it at the base. Now, I've discovered that all of the marigolds are dying off and I'm not sure why or how to fix it. Sorry for the darker images, I work nights and just noticed how they're doing. Edited to add that the plastic forks were inserted due to fear of squirrels vandalizing plants.

Random brown spots (not red obviously lol) keep appearing on every single caladium leaf, assuming the plant is toast but was curious if this is brown spot or something else?

Hi everyone, hope your day is going great! I was hoping to find some help with my corn plant. These spots have been coming up on the new growth. Thank you in advance.😊

I watered with distilled water but not sure why the edges are browning and crisping. Repotted like 2 weeks ago after getting from Lowe’s. It’s kept inside with light from the window as you can see

Hi guys! I’m a new plant owner, my wonderful plant is looking a little worse for ware! The leaves have started to go crispy and I have a few yellow stems! Any help would be much appreciated!

My aloe plant has developed a noticeable lean, and some of the lower leaves have wilted and died. At the same time, new pups are starting to grow. Should I be concerned about the plant’s health? Is there a way to correct the lean, or should I just reposition it and plant it a bit deeper in the pot?

Ignore how distorted the one photo is but this is how beautiful my hibiscus was when I bought it and then now when all its leaves turned yellow with brown dots and fell off all the flowers disappeared. What is wrong with it. It’s my dream plant I want her to live.

Hope everyone is doing well!! I am starting to have heck of a time battling spider mites. I think my ivy is on its last leg and fearing it’s too late. I treated it with Neem Oil, but they’re still going at it & stronger. What’s the census for battling these pests on a variety of plants?? (I think I won the mealy bug battle just as the mites turned up on other plants) All the best! 🌻🌞

My monster plant has been struggling with aphids and thrips. I thought I’ve gotten rid of all of them but now there are these black dots on the leaves. I think it might be scale, but I don’t know how to get rid of them.

Please can someone tell me what is wrong with my succulent? :(

Hey guys! This is my second Moth Orchid and I keep having the same issue. I think it’s root rot? But I’m really not sure. It looks like it’s overwatered and under watered at the same time. The roots at the top are discoloured but the ones in the soil are all pretty green. I did have to cut off a couple that were blackish. The flowers keep wilting and falling off. :( If anyone could give me some guidance I would really appreciate it!!

Hi everyone! Just curious as to what you all use to keep ants out of your raised garden beds?? Any tips are appreciated!!
