Hey there! Does anyone know what this little bubble looking thing on my cactus could be? Itâs a snow prickly pear cactus, and the bump almost looks like a zit or white head. Itâs soft to the touch. The cactus seems to be doing alright otherwise. It was having issues though so I had to help hold it upright. But itâs doing better now, even growing new babies!
Dracaena Lisa: I have had for about 4 years now and around 5â6â tall. I repot her about a year ago. Now I think her soil is too compact. About a month ago, I noticed these âwater stainedâ looking spots mainly on the new growth from the very top. The spots grew bigger and developed more of a tan center with yellow halo around it. I was fearing a fungal or bacterial disease, so I cut off two leaves from the top. I have applied two applications of Cooper fungicide. I added a grow light (on lower setting) and will probably cut back on watering (was watering when top 2â dry but will probably go to 3 or 4â. It looks a little better. There are about 3-4 leaves with these spots on them. Any suggestions on what to do is greatly appreciated!!!

Hi! I just got my Basil plant about a week ago and I repotted it in FoxFarm Ocean Forest and a 6in glazed ceramic pot (WITH drainage). She doesnât look happy⊠just noticed today that sheâs looking wilty and the tips of her leaves are turning brown. I was scheduled to water her today, do I need to alter that and do it sooner? Oh! I got her from Albertsons too. Does anyone have a guidance on how on how to treat her?
I thought spider plants were supposed to be easy!! I only got this thing about 2 weeks ago but it's already starting to look awful. Why are these 2 leaves turning brown? Why are almost all the leaf tips brown? This pot has a drainage hole, and I've only watered it once since bringing it home. It's been 10 days since I watered it, though, and the soil still feels a little damp. I mist it every couple of days for humidity. I have it in the middle of a room with only north-facing windows, but I chose this plant for this location because it's supposed to be fine in low light. What could I be doing wrong?? I'm hoping I can save it since I haven't had it for that long!
Help! Something is going on with my striped calathea. I water her when itâs 2/3 dry, have her next to a humidifier, mist her every so often, and have her under shade but near grow light. Sheâs crispy and turning yellow, I donât know why! She was doing great not too long ago⊠here are the recent stages of her. Last ones are of her now
I bought my Bettina Ivy last Sunday. I think the big mistake was that I brought it home on a very cold evening, it was about 14F and I didn't put it in any bag or box to protect it from the cold. When I noticed on Monday that the tips of some of the leaves were dry, I thought it was due to cold burn. I checked Google and some resources mentioned watering the plant to help it. I did so and sprayed it a little with neem oil solution to prevent fungus gnats. Since Monday, every day I have found more and more leaves with dry tips or completely withered. Please help me save him!
Can I rescue this shrivelled Nerve Plant? Itâs shrivelled up over winter, I gave it some extra artificial light but that didnât seem to help. Iâve just repotted it in case thereâs an issue with the soil. I think itâs getting enough water, though I reduced the watering frequency as I suspected it might be overwatered. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Having multiple issues here⊠My alocasia has spider mites, but I only see it in the soil. The leaves look good still. Should I repot it? My ficus elastica has a black spot on only the one bottom leaf; what could this be? It is next to a humidifier and other plants. My silver nerve has constant mold growing on top. I keep scraping it off, but it seems to grow back faster. Should I also repot this?
Update on some of my Regal Shields drama⊠I discovered little worms in the soil when I was checking it over. I took the entire plant out of the soil and washed off the roots; Iâm upset that I didnât catch it sooner. At the moment, itâs sitting in a cup of water and Iâm going to transfer it to a vase with filtered water (once it reaches room temperature). Any tips on soil for Regal Shields? Can they survive in a water propogation while they return to health?? Help!!
Hey yall, I recently moved and my plants arenât the happiest. I just noticed today that my basil has mold looking fuzz growing on the soil where the mulch wasnât covering. Then I noticed it on some of my other plants but not all of them. I sprinkled some cinnamon but not sure if I should be worried about a mass contamination of some sort.
Hey guys I need help my red fittonia randomly wilted but it has been thriving Iâve been following the schedule and everything and it randomly all wilted the soil was super dry so I watered it but it is still wilting. What do I do?
I have sadly just tossed my creeping Jenny as she had little dark bugs, flying and crawling all around the top of her. I am wondering if they are thrips? Shall I spray other plants in the area with neem oil as a preventative to this pest? Thanks.
Hello, I got this rubber plant from a reduced section at the weekend, hoping to give it some love. Iâve never had one before and I canât tell if its new leaf looks like itâs meant to? Or if itâs not very healthy as itâs so curled round and slightly pinky round the edges? Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Hi! Iâve had my spanish moss for a couple months, I soak it every week in room temp water and mist it by putting it on my humidifier every 3-4 days. It looks kind of sad, and Iâm not sure what to do to make it healthier. Should I trim the brown part? Use filtered water when I soak it and mist it instead of my hard tap water? Get a liquid fertilizer? Iâm not sure what to do. I keep it in a glass beaker on my wall (second picture)
new update on my PPP: watched a ton of youtube videos, praying that I took the cutting in the right place, dipped in some candle wax and then rooting powder, and stuck in some water⊠if she doesnât take iâll cry cause itâs one of the last variegated leaves đđ any more advice is very welcomed
will these brown spots ever go away ? i keep forgetting to water her and sheâs not happy about it. đ€Šââïž i usually cut around the brown spots but i hate how unnatural it looks. but i donât want to chop otherwise healthy leaves off. thoughts ?
