Hi! I’ve had my asparagus fern for around 4 years now, and recently, a few of his leaves have turned yellow and crispy :( I trimmed the worst parts off, but I’m a bit worried since he’s lived on below my bedroom window for his whole life (part shade since a building blocks the sun most of the day) and I’ve never had this issue before. I’m thinking it could be too much sun, as I was away for a few days and my window was open near him during that time, but since I’ve done that before with no issue, I just wanted to see if people thought that the sun was the problem or if I’m over/under watering him or something. I keep the soil moist and water him one or two times a week. Thanks so much!

Trying to save my birds of paradise. I tried to split. I lost my mom a little over a year ago. She brought this plant back from Hawaii to Kentucky. She kept it alive for years. It was busting out of the planter. I split it, but do not feel like it’s doing the best. Any experts out there on birds of paradise and information is greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone! So I recently just got into gardening, I have a slight knowledge of plant care being raised by my grandmother who is an avid gardener! So I need some clues on what could be going on with my vegetables out on my balcony. They’re relatively healthy, but droop during the day and go back to being firm at night, do y’all think it could be heat related, water related, not enough light? Just a slight comment that I live in Houston where by 12 it’s close to 100 degrees outside, and I also live in a high rise on the 12th floor so we’re closer to the sky than ground. Do y’all recommend placing my vegetables indoors or leaving them outdoors on the shaded balcony? I have tomato’s, green onions, carrots, bell peppers, habaneros, jalapeños, and Serrano growing all at once. Any tips even unrelated to the direct post will help for a first time plant mom. Thank you! (Edit: also this pic was taken while the plants have firmed a bit, but if y’all look a little closer you’ll notice some leaves are starting to curl inwards any ideas on what could be causing that?

So it turns out my pilea was waterlogged, so much that her drainage pot was full up to the base. So I rushed her out the pot and outside I airated soil and squeezed out the loose water, idk what else I can do for her. She’s the most problematic plant I own and, I just don’t know what to give her to thrive, noir have the necessities for different soil on hand. So I’m not sure what my best move is to do she’s outside in some direct/indirect, sun more of south sun and soon will be partial sun. I’m so inexperienced and just don’t know how to keep indoor plants so any advice on what to do would help.

I just bought this today in hopes of saving it!! I think it may be a peace lily?? Can anyone give me some idea of what I can do to save it? I repotted and watered it today. When repotting it the roots were super dry and there was a weird centipede looking bug on its roots. It’s very droopy and has white streaks :-( I think for sure that it’s definitely under watered

Hey all! My polka dot plant has been growing like crazy since I put it closer to a window. I didn’t cut back the leaves because I wanted to see how tall it would get.. (pretty tall!) but now the plant has white flowers popping up. I heard this could mean it’s the end. Is there anyway to save? Would cutting and propagating help?

I purchased this app to help with the sick plant. I don’t find this app. does what it advertises it’s going to do. Does anyone else have that problem? The commercials show it telling you exactly what to do to save the plant. I have not found that with this app at all. Am I doing something wrong? I would appreciate any help. Thanks

Hi 👋 I have some new plants that don’t like lime in the water but my tap water is quite hard, anyone suggest the easiest and cheapest way to make my tap water more suitable for these plant babies? Thanks 😊

So I have these ice plant seeds. Honestly they’ve been through a lot - this is my first time growing seeds and I had a few stumbles here and there, mostly the grow light I use kept knocking their pot over. I have about 5 surviving ones and I’m very proud of them!!! Unfortunately they’ve started looking a little.. sad?? And I’m not quite sure what to do 😰 Some of them were dampening off, so I moved them to a smaller pot with WAY better draining soil to curb that issue. They were looking a little droopy this morning after I repotted them, so I gave them a little water. But now they look worse!! Super dark and droopy! Is there any way I can salvage these babies or should I just give up and get a new pack of seeds? 😭

HELP! I’ve had this calathea ‘Dottie’ for two months and recently it’s leaves have started to curl up and dry out. I keep it watered regularly and it is in bight, indirect light. I just repotted it today, this pot has drainage holes, and it does not have root rot, but I can’t figure out why the leaves look like this. Someone please help me!? I want it to thrive at my house.
