I recently repotted my monstera adansonii, and now about a week later it looks like this, almost all of the leaves have some kind of damage, these are just the worst. Is this pest damage? Fungus? My best guess rn is thrips but ive never dealt with them before. Help please!
I am using a neem oil insecticide/fungicide to treat my dwarf fiddle leaf fig that has mealy bugs. Am I supposed to mist/spray down the plant and leaves with water a few minutes after applying or just leave it be? Thanks in advance for any advice!
I have this beautiful tradescantia that recently started yellowing leaves. Any idea why? It’s healthy enough to start flowing! And I know tradescantia can be finicky and naturally lose too leaves. Maybe more watering? I do see some roots growing out of the drainage hole. More space?
Does anyone know what the tiny little midges/flies are that hang out around some potting mix? I have my pointsetta and my money plant in the same potting mix, and they both have teensy little flies around them. The flies don’t seem to be on the plant—just the soil. Is it harmful, and will it affect my other plants? Can I treat it with a pesticide? I tried the yellow sticky traps, but they don’t get them all. Any advice is much appreciated!
I’ve been battling with my Dieffenbachia since I brought it inside last fall. I’ve had to trim a lot of it because of yellowing/dying leaves. I wasn’t sure what the problem was but I just noticed these “Y” shaped white things on the underside of some leaves. I’ve researched but nothing I see looks like what I have. I’ve dealt with mealy bugs on other plants and these don’t look like that. Has anyone ever had this before? I just sprayed it down with neem oil hoping it will help.
Please help!! I got these ferns abt a week ago and they’re already dying. Any suggestions on what to do?? Also I am not sure what type of ferns they are?
Looking for any suggestions on what could be causing this to my lemon lime dracaena. Much appreciated!!
Valentine rose bush has yellow leaves? Suggestions. I am a novice in rose care.
What is going on with the brown posts on the leaves? Live in zone 9
does anyone know what these spots on my baby rubber plant are from?
Can anyone help me? I have no idea what is going on with this Montsera. I added the plant light a couple of months ago because it’s in a dark corner. It started getting some new leaves and was doing great and all of a sudden all of the bottom leaves are turning yellow. It wasn’t overwatered or underwatered. I use a water meter. I even changed the soil and added more perlite just in case. I just can’t figure it out and this may sound silly to some of you, but most of you will get it, I am simply devastated. I saved this plant from a tiny baby and it is probably my favorite out of the 130+ plants that I have. Help!
Neglected Alocasia Sarian leaf never got better. it actually continued to whither, despite my high humidity setup. So I cut it, in case it was an infection instead. I repotted in Leca for hydro growth because I’ve been traveling a bit. And I’m going to try to do hydro for any Alocasia that comes to my care because of their special thirst. 🤞The new leaf looks healthy? 😅. But it hasn’t started a new growth yet.
So I got this to take care of spider mites and I’m pretty sure I got the wrong one… also the warning labels on this baby are disturbing. Do I need a different one to spray houseplants?
I got this Swiss cheese plant propagation for someone about a 2 weeks ago. Since then a new leaf is coming but it looks like it has rot root. Is there anything to do to help save it or get rid of the rot root. The stem did go down further and had rot root previously so I cut it off, washed it and put it back in water.
For the longest time, my Buddha’s Temple’s leaves have been shriveling up and Turing brown. Please help!
Does anybody knows what is happening to my calls lilies? It has yellowing leaves and it’s flowers are either losing its color or shriveling :/ I’ve been waiting until the top layer is dry before watering. I’ve planted them in all purpose soil.
My Dracaena Limelight has these brown spots on it, and I don’t know why? The only window in the room faces south and it’s around 8-9 feet from the window. I water it around once a week as that’s what I heard it needs. I’m worried I’m killing it?
Why is my ric-rac cactus turning yellow? It’s in a west facing window (part sun) and I have watered it once since I got it
Uhhhh… I just went to water my neon pothos plant and found these mushrooms!! What am I doing wrong? Like 😢 what do I do!!?
I have a Croton Mammy that got a small spider mite infestation. I added some Bonide systemic granules to its soil and every day I wipe down the leaves with water and then spray it with insecticidal spray. It’s been over a week and I’m still seeing a mite here and there. Is there anything else I can be doing to get rid of them or will it just take some more time?
