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.

I found some strange bugs crawling around my African violets soil. It was so small I could hardly tell what it was or get a picture of it (they were smaller than a flea). They looked kind of brown / white but I can’t for the life of me, figure out what they were. Anyone have any ideas on what it might be?

I have some hoya obsura plants that are all showing yellow spotted leaves that eventually fall off. I thought they were being overwatered. So, I increased the time between watering to let the soil mix dry out. The yellowing still persists. It has been over 2 months. I checked the soil today. It still looks fine with no root rot or insects. I’m assuming the chunky mix needs to completely dry out for these plants to be happy. I’m open to suggestions.

Believe it or not, this is a silver nerve plant! It all the sudden grew super tall upwards and is now really awkward. I heard about pruning it to make it more aesthetic - would that just mean cutting off the weird legs that it grew? Thanks for any advice :)

Hello, I just recently got these plants and they all seem to by turning yellow- except for my Haworthia, who is turning a purple-ish red. Thanks!

Please what is wrong with my calathea - the lower leaves started drooping as it got darker so I put her under a grow light and that seemed to stop it for a while, but now it’s started again. It’s only the lower droopy leaves that have brown/yellow sides. Thanks!

Hi! I have Pilea which I got from friend of mine, and the small one is not doing well. At first I realized that mold was present on surface, so i put stones at the bottom for more drainage. Still, since the weather and the room doesnt get much sun, soil don’t dry out for at least 5days. It’s been more than a month and half. It had only 3 leaves and now only one. The leaves turn to brown from center, then drop. I realized that the “trunk” of it turned into white. The bigger one in the same pot, however, is doing okay-ish and even started to produce a baby leaf. Should I remove the small one and deal with it separately? Is there any advice for my little poor Pilea🙏🏼

hello! does anyone know what these black spots are on my ivy plant and how to get rid of them? they are on the underside of the leaves on the end of the strands.

Any suggestions on how to make my plant more bushy? Other photos I’ve seen of this baby have more leaves and sprouts from the root, but mine is acting more like a hanging pothos and only grows from the arms. If fertilizer is the answer, any advice on type?

Help! My Chinese evergreen is a limp noodle after moving it from water! I’ve been keeping the soil moist.

I don’t know how to get rid of these pest that keep showing up on my dieffenbachia, so I’m open to suggestions. I have been cleaning the leaves weekly with neem oil. I made sure that when I saw the problem to repot it to get rid of the old soil and wash the plant and its roots. But the pest still keeps coming back
