Spider plant people, help?
I just groomed all the dead leaves out of this baby. These 3 fluffy babies were crammed into a 4â pot. I put them into a 12â pot. The watering sked planta has us on- the soil is dry to the bottom. Do they really like this dry? I wonder if it shouldnât be in a more humid room?? Or maybe sheâs too close to the grow light?

It might not be super obvious in this picture but 1/4 stems my Money Tree has, the one pictured in the front of the plant is very soft and bubbled up. According to some quick research it is due to overwatering but Iâve been following recommendations Plantar has given me. Can I still save this Money Tree by cutting the only stem that is rotting?

Ok, so winter FINALLY hit last night. I waited until today when it was supposed to be in the 30âs to bring my plant inside, and when I went out to get it, this is what I saw. It was only in the high 40s so I wasnât expecting my leaves to wilt. I brought it in to the warmth immediately. Does anybody think it will be OK? The stems are fine, my leaves are just wilted. Thereâs no blackening from frost. We havenât gotten any ice yet. Any suggestions??

How it started vs how itâs going. đ My first begonia, and she got powdery mildew and dropped all her leaves in the first 2 weeks. Grew a new leaf and that one fell off yesterday. Not totally sure what to do here

My plants seem to have suddenly gotten infected with something white. Not sure what it is but my hibiscus plant is headed for death. It seems like other plants on my patio have gotten the same thing. I have lost one of my plants to this already. Help! I donât want to lose the rest of the family!

Can anyone tell me what is going wrong with my crĂȘpe myrtle sapling? It was watered and fertilized yesterday. Is it still savable? Prior to this it was fertilized three weeks ago.

Iâve got trouble in paradise đ
This is a new leaf that took her time unfurling. I let her do her thing, no pressure. She finally started getting loose and unfurling and came down to this, this morningđ„șđ„ș
What could have caused this? Should I have help the leaf unfurl? Do I cut it off to prevent any damage to the rest of her?

Does anyone have success with pony tail palms? Could give me a few tips? Iâve had this almost a year and every time I clean it I have to cut off a ton of dead. Mostly the tips, but some of the new growth didnât look good this time. It isnât in direct light. I water it whenever it drys out. My house has a humidity level of about 60+. And I use filtered water. đ€·ââïž

Iâm hoping I just had this too close to the grow light. What do yâall think?

Hello, I live on the Galt. Iâm having trouble keeping my plants a live. Last year I got a good bloom on my calamondin tree⊠then after it caught the black plague and almost died. I managed to save it last minute but it lost a lot of branches⊠Does any one else fight the battle between plants and the salty air?

Hi! Does anyone know what these fluffy white growths are on the base of my spider plant? They must be at least a cm long as there are stones in the pot for drainage and thereâs one thicker shorter one and a thinner longer one.
There are the roots themselves and then these little white bits too.
The plant itself is okay, but has some black tips on the leaves, even on the new growths, but I donât think itâs under watered?
Thank you so much! x

The stems also have brown on them when they never have before
Any advice is welcome. Please, i want to save my chinese evergreen!! Thanks !
