This are my sunflowers which I was gifted about a month ago. They had an ant and fly infestation. I’ve tried spraying insect killer in the evening and this made the plant worse and didn’t really kill the ants/flys. I used one of the yellow sticky tabs and as you can see it’s done well but the plant is still struggling and some leaves on the stems are wilting. What can I do please?
I got 6 plants the other day, realized one had thrips when I got home. I gave them all several insecticidal baths and a repot then chopped the one with thrips down about an inch from the soil. The following day, another had spider mites so I chopped it as well. How long do I keep all the plants in jail?
hi, i’ve been having such a hard time growing my pothos and my monstera. i got the monstera (monstera adonsii) as a propagation last april and she thrived in water. i tried to pot her last summer and she got infested with fungus gnats. so back into water she went for the winter. i tried potting her again a couple weeks ago and her soil and the pothos got infested with soil mites, which i found out that they’re not bad but there were soooo many that it was a problem. my pothos lost all of his leaves except for one single baby leaf. i started a insecticide treatment and i left both of them outside yesterday afternoon and when i came back to check on them after a couple hours, the monstera was halfway out of her pot and her leaves ripped off. i pulled them both out of the soil and found that the pothos had severe root rot. i cut off the roots and now they’re both back in water. i’m literally about to give up, i’m trying to branch out and grow things that aren’t succulents but these two are giving me so much trouble. please help, will they survive?
Hey everyone! My Birds Nest Fern has been struggling for awhile. The leaves are continually browning, and I’ve been trying to make sure I’m not over/under watering. I have the plant in a pot with drainage. Any suggestions or advice is greatly appreciated!
Any idea what’s happening with my Dracaena? There very big and pretty but I started noticing these marks on a few of its leaves.
Hey Everyone! I repotted this spider plant and it is turning black🫠it has a fresh soil. But leaves still turning black… please help me, I’m very new to the plantsðŸ«
Any advice on why the leaves are turning yellow and curling at the edges? Roots look healthy and there’s new growth coming in. Thank you!
Hi there!! My Monstera Thai Constellation’s roots look funky. It doesn’t seem like rot since the plant is holding onto its leaves. But it almost looks like the roots are fuzzy. The newest leaf has these markings on it too. Any advice? Thank you!
Seen these tonight under my Bird of Paradise leaves. Are these bugs ? How would i treat this?
I recently found out I have Fungus Gnats on my succulents. People have recommended misquote bits, but I’m not sure how to use them. Also are there any other ways to get rid of the gnats? Any advice is appreciated!!
I have a pepper plant outside in full sun for at least 5-6 hours in a pot. The plant is getting flowers, but the leaves are turning yellow. I really want to save this plant. Can someone help me? What could be the reason? There are no bugs, and I water only when the topsoil is dry.
I’m trying to save a coworker’s plant — she had it in a windowless office and just moved it to an area with part-sun. I trimmed a bunch of dead leaves and it has started sending out new shoots. But the big leaves are still browning and curling. Anyone know why? I’m not familiar with polka dot plants, which I believe this is.
My dahlia is sick and I need some tips Sorry the corgis in the way
same plant that i took a picture yesterday vs today pls help me i’m not sure what’s happening!!!
Would love advice for my monstera. Thrips tried to take over but I think I caught it early. I believe most of them are gone now but noticed the crust on the bottom of this stem. Is this caused by pests or is this scale? Thank you!
It’s been getting droopier and droopier. I’ve only watered it once since I brought it home. But it doesn’t feel dry either. Anyone know what I should do?
Anyone know what’s happening to this money tree?
Can someone explain what is happening to this stem (There was a leaf growing but my cat got to it) I am watering the plant as instructed, should I be concerned about the overall health of my monstera?
Hi all. I recently started using Bonide Systemic to take care of some pest issues. I recently became nervous after reading more into some of its carcinogenic effects. Should I be concerned? Most of my 10-15 plants have been sprinkled with the granules and watered. I did this about 4-6 weeks ago. Can the toxins still be inhaled? Just nervous health wise thank you!
Hello plant friends! I repotted this lemon lime maranta from its nursing pot to this ceramic pot with drainage about 2 months ago. It kind of freaked out so I gave it time. I lost one leaf and it went droopy, but there’s all kind of new growth, even blooming. You’ll notice there’s some browning on the leaves, I thought maybe it was crisping from the sun, so I moved it to partial sun, and haven’t seen more browning. But I’ve read that it loves full sun, so I’m not sure. It likes to be damp, so I water once a week to 10 days, but maybe I’m over watering….any advice??
