Hello! Can someone please help me with my basil plant? When I bought it last month, the leaves were a little shriveled and it was already a pretty large plant. Since then I have researched it a bunch and trimmed it down and water it whenever the soil is completely dry. I also make sure to drain the pot to prevent root rot. I have it in front of a very large window, so it gets adequate sun all day. Please note that I do not open up this window so it doesn’t get exposed to the cold air. Ever since the cold weather has started, my basil plant has been drooping and looking awful. Any words of advice?

Hey so this little guy is really sad right now… anybody know why?

I had both these plants (Money tree and Fiddle leaf fig) for just a week after my old plants died. I have no clue what I’m doing wrong… I water them according to what the app says, and they get a lot of sun from my south facing window. Please advise 😔 They already seem to be shriveling up and looking weaker!

My dieffenbachia is dying and I have no clue why or not to stop it. It was looking pretty rough so I used the dr Planta and it said it was because of a lack of drainage. So I repotted it into a pot with drainage holes and cut off all the dead leaves. Now even more leaves have totally turned yellow or died. At this point it’s just a few pathetic looking stems. Anything I can do to revive it or is it a total lost cause? I’m really sad because this was my first ever house plant I ever bought myself and I’ve had it for around 3ish years.

Mold seems to be growing on the soil and now on those adventitious roots towards the bottom :( what is the best way to get rid of this?? I have a feeling it’s because this soil stays moist for way too long, which I plan to change out when it’s time for repotting, but help in the meantime would be much appreciated!!

Does anyone know what I should do? Almost all her leaves have grown tips or fading green color. She was root bound, repotted her, monitoring her water and still not happy. I just bought this grow light and hope maybe it’s the culprit. I do see new leaves coming up but not sure what else to do?

Pls help me my beautiful plant is dyinggggg

Just found an explosion of spider mites on one of my miniature rose plants… only just looked at it the other day and didn’t see any sign of pests and now a ton this morning out of nowhere! I was ready to let this one go anyway as it’s looking pretty rough now but still a sad sight to see

I have tried to google but I can’t seem to find anything on the subject. I have about 12 plants, 4 in my office and the rest in my kitchen. My office does not smell but my kitchen and living room stink of smoke, like cigarette smoke. I’m not a smoker. I did read that sometimes plants can smell like smoke, that you can smell it from far away but the smell goes away as you get closer to the plants. Thats exactly what’s happening. Can anyone help me figure out how to stop it? All plants have been repotted recently and all have new soil. *picture of my favorite plant child. Shhh don’t tell the others

Yesterday I noticed one of my flaming Katy had some soggy leaves that were falling off and I looked closer and realized it had some dark spots on the stem. I took off all the soggy mushy stuff and the flowers that were over, I just left one stem of flowers that still look ok. I’m really worried about it and I thought it was root rot. I ordered new soil that’s being delivered Monday, so I can repot it and cut off the rotted roots, also this is the original soil and pot. I got the plant about a month ago from the grocery store. I looked at it again today and I don’t know if it’s root rot now. The black spot is hard, the whole Main stem and everything is hard and the dark spots where the leaves I took off yesterday are hard and crispy, also the soil is really dry. I have four other flaming Katy’s I’ve had for awhile and they are all doing really well, I haven’t treated this one any different then those ones, so I don’t know what I did wrong to this one or if something happened to it before I bought it. Does anyone have any idea what’s wrong with it?

Anyone know what’s happening with my zebra plant? The inside arms are burnt and a few of them have a red tint to them.

Does anyone have any tips on getting rid of mealy bugs? Things are looking pretty dire for this hibiscus.

Had purchased petunia (Peace lily) around a month ago was doing amazing until 2 days ago where I noticed the petal turning brown and had only got worst from there. I did water the plant using a food for peace lilys and I’ve been spraying the leaves as to not lose humidity (not huge amounts of sprays, like a 10ml bottle used). Could someone please help me figure out what’s wrong. I really do t want to have damaged her.
