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.
My rose seems to have some browning I put it outside to get more light but any more tips
Does anyone have any tips for desert locusts? My poor pepper 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 she’s 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 leaves… I moved it to the yard to do a deep water (haven’t picked a landing place yet) as I suspect the watering was inconsistent. I also added fertilizer and fresh soil last weekend.
does anyone know what’s going on with my aloe? it has turned a yellowish color and is weirdly squishy. thanks!
Anyone knows what is the problem with this rosemary? I recently bought it and repotted it. I watered after repotting and haven’t 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. I’m having a tough time determining if my monstera has thrips or not. Used the iPhone magnifier too look closely, but I didn’t identify much. Also, if I do have thrips, what is the best way to handle them? Edit: I’m starting to think it’s 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 it’s overwatering but it’s 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? It’s 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 I’m starting to worry that it isn’t gonna come back. I didn’t 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 could’ve 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. I’ve 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 I’m reading it could be underwatering which seems weird to me. I’m in a similar boat with my fern. Was doing great for the first 6 months. Now the leaves are drying out and I can’t 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 seem…glittery?

I recently repotted this little guy from a small seed starter / grow pot where the water was in the bottom of the pot. It’s been about a week or so in the new pot and it has drainage holes, but the leaves are turning colors. I’m wondering if it needs more water or less? the top 2” are dry and there is very little moisture deeper down.
My Meyer lemon tree has white almost powder on it and I was wondering if the was a bad thing or something I should just wash off.
