Anyone know what these little bugs in my elephant ear are? Some are black ish and some are white ish and they curl up into balls. Probably about 1/2 inch long. Do I need to get rid of them? How? Help!!

Please help! i’ve had this pilea for a couple months now and it was doing great until about a month ago it started going downhill. It’s turning yellower by the week and now i noticed today it has these leaves, it had one awhile back but i didn’t think anything of it now it’s a whole bunch! 😭 Also it gets good sunlight, i follow the care routine, it also has two growing babies. Any thoughts? Thanks!

help! I have never owned a plant before, but my mother gave me this 7 days ago , (2nd picture is when I took it home) once I get it home, my boyfriend light it on fire because he said it helps with regrowth?!?! I didn’t get a chance to research anything before he did it… the 1st picture is immediately after he burnt it and the third is what it looks like now 😩 This plant is from my grandfather’s funeral…. I’ve been reading a bunch about it but what are your thoughts?? We put in super thrive after he burned it and put water in it. We’ve just been watering every so often so far. We have been keeping him in our sunroom, in the corner with no direct sunlight. It stays pretty humid / warm in there throughout the day! I did notice the pot only has 3 very small drain holes….

Does anyone know what I would be doing wrong or what’s happening to my Golden Pothos? The leaves are droopy and the stem is not as stiff as the others.

My cat palm leaves are turning yellow and have brown spots. I got the plant about 2 weeks ago. Any advice?

I was told the occasional mushroom in a potted plant is fine, since they’re a sign of healthy (or very wet) soil, but I opened my bag of potting mix and found stringy mushrooms mingled in with the soil. Should I throw the whole bag away? What should I do? Also, I identified one of them as a pleated inkcap, but I don’t know the other one (below).

Just found out some of my plants in my bedroom have spider mites on top of fungus gnats. I sprayed down all the leaves, stems, and soil with neem oil because that’s all I have. Anything else I should do?

Any tips for keeping cats away from plants? My cat usually doesn’t bother the ones up on my counter but I recently got a Bella palm and she’s been chewing the leaves off.

Does anyone know why I haven’t been having the best luck with my philodendron. Got it about 2 weeks ago, it’s in good indoor sun, and watered every week. One by one the smaller leaves get watery and slimy then dry out and go limp. On the bigger leaves I’m noticing just small parts of the leaves go dry.

My Pilea is not doing well. It has light, and it was reported in the same pot but with some new soil. This pot does not have drainage but it’s been in this pot for two years and doing well. Just before a big move it was unhappy and then after the move she got REALLY unhappy.

I NEED HELP! the leaf on this stem wasn’t doing good a couple of months ago so I chopped it. But now I’m wondering if I should have cut the whole stem off or is a new leaf going to grow out of this chopped stem. I noticed it starting to brown. Should I leave that stem the way it is or chop it lower? I’m trying to prevent taking the entire plant out to remove the stem. Please help !!

Not sure what this is. I think it’s Freesia, but not positive. At one point in time it used to be very full and green and was even blooming a little bit. Recently, it was not so full and green, but did bloom a little. I would like it to be back to being full green and blooming well, any suggestions?
