Hi all! My monstera plant started developing a new leaf and it was brown. I left it alone for a bit to see if it would get less brown for some reason and it didnât. This is what it looks like right now. Is there a reason I shouldnât cut it off? Does anyone have any ideas as to what couldâve caused this?

This is my new spider plant. Iâd like to keep it outside during the summer and bring it inside in like September or October. Iâd be keeping outside at seasonal campsite in the summer. Iâm worried about it getting bugs. I donât want my plant to get infested or eaten and I donât want to bring bugs home to my other plants. Does anyone have any advice on what I can do to keep bugs away from my plant? Iâm willing to use pesticides Iâm just scared to spray it with something and it killing my plant. So I was wondering if anyone on here has used any that work to prevent bugs and didnât damage the plants.

Hi :) Im a new Golden Pothos owner and Iâve had this plant about 4 days but after I had bought it I noticed it had many brown shoots. The stems are all firm and not squishy. And Iâve not watered it since Iâve had it. Overall the plant looks healthy but when you examine closer theres a few things Iâm worried about. Any ideas of what the problem is and how to fix it would be appreciated :)

Hey yâall! I have a scindapsus exotica that I recently moved to a spot that gets more sun. She seems to be reaching out more and perking up, but I noticed a few of her leaves are less sparkly now! Is it getting too much Sun? My pothos love this spot so thought she would like it here too, but maybe I was wrong. Hereâs a pic of one of the leaves that had lost almost all of its sparkle đą. Have any of yâall experienced this?

Hi!
I attempted to rescue this Alocasia silver sword from clearance. She had one leaf, which Planta said had leaf rot. Her roots look good and she looks like she has one or two new leaves wanting to grow. The stem is also green and firm. I trimmed the dead part of the leaf, sprayed her with neem oil and put her in water but she keeps turning more yellow. Can I save her?

My poor string of dolphins has been having a tough time! When I brought this plant home, I noticed an aphid infestation and weekly treated it with neem oil until they were gone. Then, several weeks ago, I noticed a spider mite infestation! For the past two weeks I have been weekly treating it with neem oil. Do you think my plant will recover? I donât notice any pests on it now, but am nervous bringing it back indoors. Any tips/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

This is my roommates plant and sheâs saying itâs infected with some type of bug. First photo you can see on the stem some type of bug and she says the white spots in the soil are larvae. Does anyone have an idea on what it might be?

hey yâall! this snake plant is one of my oldest and I donât think itâs put out any new leaves for atleast 2 or 3 years now đ it hasnât died or anything, it just stopped doing anything! to me, the leaves do have a discoloration to them compared to what they looked like before and seem a little shriveled. I have noticed a very small, slow growing baby in the soil so that looks promising. iâve repotted within the last year and he has fertilizer. any ideas of what could be happening ?
