Monstera question! I got a small monstera plant that had been living in pure water for the last 6 months. I put it in a pot with dirt (no drainage but has rocks) and got something to hold the stems up and it has been doing well for the last week or so ive had it. But now its starting to droop and im concerned. How often should i be watering? Its getting bright indirect sunlight

hi! this is my monstera i got from a garage sale a few months back, and i just repotted her today from a 12 inch pot to a 14 inch pot. sheâs in an east facing window that gets about 2-3 hours of direct sunlight in the morning, and then bright indirect throughout the day.
one leaf has these tiny brown dots on it and the others do not, iâm wondering if these are a symptom of poor health and if so, how to fix it.
overall, sheâs happy and her roots are perfectly healthy. donât mind the sagging leaf at the bottom, sheâs getting pruned soon due to new growth. the white spot isnât a thrip, just some fiber i hadnât wiped off. thank you!

HELP!
I got this fiddle leaf fig back in January.
She came in the main and when I opened her she was full and had very healthy leaves.
It seemed like my problems were almost instant. Two months later her leaves started curling, browning, and falling off. I repotted moved her. It only got worse from there. A few months down the road I finally did some research (which I should have done in the first place đ€Šââïž) and I moved her to the only south facing window I have. Again it only got worse.
This is her now. I really want to rescue her but Iâm out of ideas. Definitely needs a bigger pot so I am taking care of that today.

So it seems that the potential aphids have gotten on more than one plant. I gave some insecticide that I sprayed on the plants. How long do I do this for? Thereâs no instructions on the bottle.

Can anyone tell me why the ends of my leaves & stems are turning black? Itâs like all of them all over the plant, it has a little âblack auroraâ around it.

I transplanted my strawberry plant recently to a bigger box and came back to this.
Why did part of my plant shrivel up? Is it trauma? Lack of water? Too much sun?
Will the rest of my plant die with it this late into the summer?

Does anyone know what is causing this. Pest? Too much sun. Underwater. Over water??

What in the world is in my banana trees soil?? đ€Żđ€Żđ€Ż (the weird small gray bug in the middle by the light colored piece of mulch all swarmed out when I watered it so I dumped my neem mixture into the soil)

I ordered this Thai con from BWH plant co and upon receiving it had a few flawed spots, it was still moist so I didnât water it and just put it in bright indirect light.
Over 4 days the the flawed spots got bigger and one more showed up and the plant is now completely laying over and leaves are flimsy.
They gave me a refund as they said it seems like the transit/temperature put it under too much stress.
Is there anything I can do to help/save this one?
Give me all your advice!

A few of my Golden Pothos leaves are turning yellow and going soft - plus the black spots on that one leaf.
The soil also smells a bit funky, sort of damp?
Is this a case of root rot? Any advice is appreciated!

I wad gifted this string of dolphins a bit less than a year ago and it died completely within a few months. I was able to save one strand and have been trying to regrow it for at least 6 or 7 months. Any and all tips would be so appreciated!! đ

Hi I was wondering if someone could please help me, I feel like Iâm being paranoid with my SOP. I seen some webbing on one of them but then after moving it around a âregularâ spider crawled out, but now I feel like Iâm seeing scale and I need help figuring out if thatâs what Iâm seeing or not. Again I may just be paranoid now because I thought it has spider mites.đ”âđ«đź
