Hi, doe anyone know some tricks to keeping my Dracaena looking good and healthy. The first pic is when I brought her home. I did have a problem of not enough drainage. I corrected that. She seemed to bounce back. But now she is getting brown spots. Do I need to use filtered water? How dry do you
let the soil get between watering. Any help will be great!!! This is my second. Lost one I recused in winter.( kept it alive for a yr. But not that lush) I am in love with these plants.

Help! I recently got a rescue cat palm and some of the leaves have turned yellow with the rest having severe browned tips. New growth is also turning yellow and sheâs barely getting any new leaves at all. My guess is overwatering but i have her outside so i dont know how that would make much sense!

I just inherited this avocado tree and would love to bring it to healthy but these brown leavesâŠ
I moved it to the yard to do a deep water (havenât picked a landing place yet) as I suspect the watering was inconsistent. I also added fertilizer and fresh soil last weekend.

Anyone knows what is the problem with this rosemary? I recently bought it and repotted it. I watered after repotting and havenât water it since. The potting mix still has some humidity half way down and it gets plenty of light all day. This has been very frustrating

Help. Iâm having a tough time determining if my monstera has thrips or not. Used the iPhone magnifier too look closely, but I didnât identify much. Also, if I do have thrips, what is the best way to handle them?
Edit: Iâm starting to think itâs not infected, and maybe the leaf curl is due to needing a repotting. Idk.. any info helps!

This spider plant looks almost clear, google tells me itâs overwatering but itâs not happening to the adult, just 2 babies out of ~10. What could be going on here?

Anyone know what is happening with my Grandmas plant? Itâs an inch plant propagation, and it has weird white stuff in the soil and it is losing all the leaves, cause they are drying up. All help appreciated!

I was out of the country for a few weeks and when I returned home I noticed that my lucky bamboo died or is dying⊠it still has one or two green leaves, but the rest is dead. It fell over and I wanted to check the roots so I tried pulling it out carefully, but I guess I needed to more careful because I ripped its roots out⊠Is there a way to revive it? How do I revive it?
Thank you for your time! Please have a good day!

Hey guys, I just wanted to see if I can get some help with my hope philodendron as of Lee it has lost all its leaves, and has declined back to just the bulb and Iâm starting to worry that it isnât gonna come back. I didnât get rid of it. I still have it in a smaller pot and keeping the soil moist but if anybody knows why this is or what couldâve happened I would really appreciate it. Thank you for all the support!

Can anyone help me figure out my issues with these two plants?
The first one is a calathea zebra plant. Iâve had it for about 6 months and bring it to the bathroom when I shower because I know they like humidity. But over the last couple weeks a lot of the leaves are curling up and browning. Thought it was humidity so I bought a humidifier. But now Iâm reading it could be underwatering which seems weird to me.
Iâm in a similar boat with my fern. Was doing great for the first 6 months. Now the leaves are drying out and I canât figure out why.
P.S. these pictures were taken yesterday and they look a little worse then this now.

Can anyone tell me what these spots are? They are on multiple leaves and have been there for weeks. No bugs or pests that I can see. Also the spots seemâŠglittery?

I just bought a golden pathos and an inch plant from my local Walmart. I want to quarantine my plants and clean them to try to prevent bringing in pests to my other plants. Tips on how to clean these plants?

I recently repotted this little guy from a small seed starter / grow pot where the water was in the bottom of the pot. Itâs been about a week or so in the new pot and it has drainage holes, but the leaves are turning colors. Iâm wondering if it needs more water or less? the top 2â are dry and there is very little moisture deeper down.

What are your favorite pest control methods? I want to have it on hand in case something occurs. Iâve heard neem oil - are there additional options?
