Hello I’m fairly new to being a plant mom. Over this past week my actual mom took care of my plants, and I came back home to my Monstera having a white superficial layer on the soil. Research says that this is a type of fungus. I removed an inch of the top layer of soil, and then sprinkle cinnamon to prevent the fungus from going back. However, it’s back. Please help me on how to treat this because it’s really stressing me out for the sake of my plants well be. 😩😭🫠

Why is this happening? This plant is kind of close to a vent so I was wondering if it’s too close to heat ?

This is my first encounter with black aphids. I think they are aphids. Whatever they are, they are annoying since they headed straight for the tender new growth on my Hoya Bella. I have sprayed soapy dishwater on them and the 10 plants close by with subsequent spraying to follow every week. Oh well…🪲

Hi! I gave my mini monstera new soil after a few years because there was mold growing on top of it, she used to be standing tall and thriving and now she’s droopy. No yellow leaves or anything like that. What could be wrong?

Ok so my mom has two very beautiful money trees, one is eleven years old and the other is only a year or two old. They thrive outside in the summer, get big and healthy branches and leaves and they look great. But when we bring them inside from the winter cold, they look so sad and they wilt and lose leaves and stems. My dad says that it’s because of the change of climate and we just keep them inside all year long. My mom disagrees because they are so happy outside. Any tips? Idk what we should do.

Does anyone know what this yellowing could be from? I have looked at my plants multiple times up close and can’t find any bugs at all. The soil was holding water so I repotted it not very long ago. The roots were healthy and I’ve been getting news leaves and had 2 flowers. I’m just not sure if it was from overwatering or could maybe be a nutrient deficiency or something else? I appreciate any help/advice!

My moms money tree keeps dropping these yellow leaves. No pest issues found. She’s never had a problem with over/underwatering it. Any ideas?

My bonsai tree keeps loosing a significant amount of leaves. They turn yellow on a daily basis. Is there something I am missing?!

Why polka dot plant is so freaking leggy😥 should I just cut my losses and snip the stalks or just let it growl Ike this. It’s gets plenty of light and water.

😡 I decided to check some of my plants that had suspicious markings after watching a video on microscopic mites that are around (especially Hoyas I guess.) And what do you know first plant I picked out had them. I’ve washed it thoroughly with castille soap and neem oil and quarantined the plant. Now every progress report for every plant gets a “mite” report. So far I haven’t found any more. 😏
