Hi! I just had what I think is my first encounter with thrips. I can’t see them (I have bad eyes lol) but the damage on the leaves looks like thrip damage. In addition to silvery marks, there are a few holes in leaves and one leaf with brown edges. Could this also be thrip damage? And does anyone have tips on how to treat them (especially on plants with more delicate leaves (nerve plant and oxalis)? Tysmm :)

please comment anything you know about using peroxide with succulents? some questions i have- •what’s the right ratio of 3% peroxide and water? •does it kill fungus growing on the top layer of soil? •should i use diluted peroxide to water my succulents? or stick to regular watering techniques? •is it true that using peroxide with plants is helpful?

I have had this peperomia for 5 months now, and I keep seeing two problems. 1) the bottom leaves get large and turn yellow and die off. And then 2) the healthy green foliage never grows any bigger. The leaves stay small, and the overall plant is the same size as when I got it. It just sprouted these two flowering rods, but no other visible growth. I have it in bright indirect light, and I have repotted it and pretty sure no bugs or root rot. Any suggestions?

I have an Audrey Ficus 8ft potted tree and recently the leaves have been turning yellow and black and falling. Others are starting to get yellow dots and I’m afraid my tree is going downhill. Can anyone help? We water once a week. I love our tree. Please help!

I need help with my corn plant Dead A$$. I’ve had him for 3 years and I repotted him in March. He’s been blooming since, but the blooms grow and die. He’s the oldest of my 6 plants

Picked up this monstera from Trader Joe’s last week. Had a small case of root rot, so I trimmed suspect roots, repotted with fresh new soil, then watered with diluted hydrogen peroxide. Are these yellow leaves concerning? Also, when misting with neem oil this morning, I noticed about 4 fungus gnats walking around the pot. I’m assuming it’s just from being overwatered. Seeking advice and wanted to get a fresh set of eyes from more experienced people out there.

My asparagus fern has funnily enough been one of my most challenging plants. I have it sitting on a pebble tray now in an attempt to increase its humidity and water it when the soil is beginning to dry out. I’m thinking it wants a different lighting situation? But it could also be my watering, I truly don’t know. It’s getting filtered, indirect light from a south facing window right now. Any tips to help it out?

Hello! I’ve had this cactus for nearly 3 years now and in the past few months it’s started to look a little worse for wear. I did just repot it for the first time (I know I should’ve done it sooner) and I’m propagating one of the leaves in case this is the end for it. It’s got these light brown spots and cracks on one side and the base looks dark brown. The leaves are also pretty wrinkly (which used to only happen when it was underwatered but now it’s always like that). Is it root rot?

I was advised to “behead” my jade plant due to stretching. I let the cutting callous over for a few days then replanted it in its own pot. The sticks are there to help it stand up until it starts rooting on its own. It is a good size cutting and very top heavy. It is under a grow light but it has always been so it’s nothing new. As you will notice some of the bottom leaves have developed brown spots on the ends and have kinda flattened-they have lost their plumpness. Is this sunburn? I don’t know what else it can be. Someone suggested putting this in a smaller pot which I’m going to do but would a pot that’s too large cause these brown spots?

Anybody know why my leaves are dying? They get powderery and fall off. Still flowering (though will cut do it focuses on leave growth). Am I over watering?

Hi all! I got this bromeliad a few months ago has been doing well until recently. It is currently in a south facing window and shows leaves yellowing. Along with the yellowing, only the half of the plant facing the window has its pink color. The soil is also very stiff and hard even after watering. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do?

Hi there! First post. Am a big fan of this corn plant that I adopted. Repotted it last year and it was incredibly root bound. Since then have seen new growth, but also these brown/yellow circular splotches on leaves. More pronounced on the lower stalks, but still present on the upper ones. Any ideas?

I put this little air plant in water like I usually do but I left and came back and it had sunk. It is a few days later and it looks smushed and dry. Any ideas on how to save it?
