New to Planta and the groups. I’m looking for help with my monstera. I was looking for a home remedy to help with fungus gnats and came across using vinegar to keep them away, I also saw peroxide but I didn’t have any on had. Anyways I put a little bit of apple cider vinegar around my plant and within 2 days it’s grown this white fuzzy mold like stuff on the top layer of my plant. This happened before about a month ago when I was using neem oil solution to try to treat the rust spots it had. The rust spots and gnats are gone. But is there a way to get rid of the white fuzzy mold on the soil without replanting the whole thing? I don’t wanna go out and buy more soil as it’s already a big plant and I don’t wanna shock it from repotting it too many times. Any advice and help is appreciated!

Guys my tomato plant is going through something. I had two of em and I had to get rid of the other one because the fruit it bore had rot in them. I think it’s blight but I’m not sure

Can anyone please tell me what is going on with my plants and how to fix it? I know that the monkey mask needs a repotting but is there anything else I can do to help it.

I’ve been having issues with aphids on my mint for weeks, does anyone know a fast way to kill them without harming the plant? Maybe I just wasn’t doing a good job at spraying down the plant and getting in all the little leaf crevasse

Help 😭😭 severe root rot on my monstera. Do I need to cut off all of the roots? If so, what’s my next course of action to save it? I’m not sure what to do. Any and all advice is needed. In the last picture I completely cut off the roots but wasn’t sure if the open, cut stems look ok or if I need to trim more of the whole root. (Hope that made sense)

Please help 🥹 🩷🤍

I noticed two yellow mushrooms growing in one of my indoor plants. I’ve never had this issue before and I’m not sure if they will harm the plant (or me). I sat my plant outside one day to get some rainfall so I’m assuming the spores blew onto my plant. Should I remove them or let them die? Will they harm my plant?

Hi 👋🏼 I was hoping someone might know what’s going on with my peperomia. I’ve had this guy for over a year and this week it developed these brown spots of a handful of leaves. I’ve been watering according to Planta schedule. I replanted it recently (a month or so ago), but it seemed fine for weeks thereafter. I moved it to a brighter spot last week (no direct sunlight), but I don’t see why that would cause this issue. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Please help.

Welp, there goes 6 years of being a pest-resistant superstar 😭😭 My parlor palm has thrips. I hosed her down to bare root yesterday, drenched the leaves in Dead Bug brew, and removed all the leaves with evident damage. Now what? Would LOVE some opinions on how to try to save her. Diatomaceous earth? Bag it for high humidity? New soil and systemic? Chop and re-root in water? Thank you, friends!!!

Does my calathea look like it has any pest ? Or is this normal damage

Today I saw this brown portion on my Thai constellation’s leaf. I checked the roots for rotting but it looked fine. I would appreciate any tip on how to keep my baby alive and kicking. Thanks in advance

Does anyone know why my Monstera is turning black on the bottom of the leaves? HELP!

I just “graduated” from pothos and snake plants and made the terrible mistake of leaving this new baby in a hot Florida car (I know…I’m not proud) Is it salvageable? What do I do?

My Obliqua seems a bit angry with me. Not sure why it shot out runners or how to stop them. Can I just cut them away?

Plumeria help! I’m looking for any thoughts on why the leaf is discolored? It wasn’t yesterday. Any thoughts on the black spots of tar looking substance on the trunk, branches, and under leaves? Also wasn’t there yesterday. Only thing that was there yesterday are the white spots on the other otherwise normal leaves, which I was trying to figure out what those are as well. It’s new, in full Sun, has only been watered once in about two weeks and plan to once a week.

I’ve had this plant for about 2 weeks and the new leaves still haven’t opened. Is this normal? She’s under a grow light 12 hours a day and I water about once a week

Just bought a miniature rose about two weeks ago. Noticed it started getting a white powder on some of the leaves. When I looked into it I learned it was a type of fungus. I’ve been able to prune the infected leaves off and the rest seem healthy but I don’t want it to come back on any of the others. Does anyone have any tips on what’s the best thing to use to prevent it?

My snake plant is super wilted and idk why :( I repotted it last week and it’s been fine up until the last few days. Someone said it’s just growing but it’s most definitely wilting now (unless I’m just being dramatic?) but idk it looks sickly to me, the stem parts of a couple of the larger leaves got super weak so I pruned them but now they’re all that way and won’t stand up really at all
