Sooo I went to eat lunch rq and left my monstera in the car for like an hour and i came back and her leaves are like a little black on the edges and she’s a little wilted. I just got her as a gift and I really want to be able to help herrr 😭😭😭. Any tips would be so appreciated!
Ok, this is my silver nerve plant and I’ve had it for a LONG time. I was wondering if I should take a cutting from it and just throw the whole thing out. If I should do that please tell me how to cut and where I should cut it and if anybody has a growing one please send me a picture. Thank you!!!
My snake plant has very thin, lanky leaves. Any thoughts on what could be the cause?
My mum got me this Lemon tree a while back. It’s been doing decently well but I haven’t needed to water it in at least two weeks. It along with some of my other plants soil stays damp and doesn’t dry out, it started to get a little mold growing on it. I’m new to this and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, can anyone help?
received this monstera with thrips and idk if it’s worth saving? i’ve been spraying with insecticidal soap and neem oil but now she’s covered in edema like discoloration.. pls help i dont know thrips like that 😔😔
What is the best storage for spagnum moss? I know it’s damp but I don’t want it to rot or mold
Help with my grafted moon! In my terrarium with one other succulent, my grafted moon has a growth out the side and the top has lost its color. Any recommendations for how to help it recover?
Hi there, I noticed some yellow and brown spots on my monstera and I just want to double check it isn’t pests or a fungal infection. Dr Planta seems to think it is from under-watering - I often let the leaves begin to curl a bit and the soil dry out before I water, though I’ve recently added planta so hopefully my care improves. I cant see any pests, and I haven’t noticed any on any of my other plants. We did move recently as well, and the monstera went from being up against an east facing window, to almost a meter away from a south-west facing window. It does seem fairly happy otherwise and just put out a new leaf a couple weeks ago. The newer leaves are completely free of spots. Thanks for your help!
my white wizard was/is thriving but ever since i got him this leaf has been giving me issues. it’s been about two months and now this is happening. does anyone know what’s going on?</3
Hi plant people! Anyone know what’s wrong with my lil guy! I think he’s a crassula? He’s losing petals left right and center :(
What is going on here? I’m struggling with this plant 😭 I’ll try to keep this short: original plant on the left started out bright/light green small plump leaves, I neglected it for a little leaves dried out/crunchy. Pinched dead leaves but it was getting longer still with crunchy leaves. So I cut of stems that were too long pinched off the burnt bits and potted it in planter on the right. Those cutting now have bigger leaves than before but are not plump like they started out. Idk what’s up with that. Is the 2 in. Planter (on left) too small now? Should I pinch off the brown ones from the left and add to the planter on the right (4in) . I think I’m killing her 😅…. Poor Lisa
Hi! I have three grow lights (two weaker gooseneck ones and one black lamp) facing this monstera. All the other leaves are looking great and the browning has completely stopped after I created this setup HOWEVER this one leaf (has one of the weak gooseneck lights directly dancing it - no heat emitted) is starting to slightly yellow. Is this due to too much light? IGNORE THE YELLOW/BROWN SPOTTING ON THE TOP CORNER OF THE PLANT - I bought it like that.
What's wrong with this plant? Only the newest leaf had it when I got it. It was still curled up so I didn't see. Now it looks like even the leaf that's about to come out it's going to have it too. It also recently formed a yellow leaf towards the base that still feels healthy. I haven't been over watering it, and it used to be right under a grow light. I moved it yesterday.
Hi! I’ve just got my first pink angel nerve fittonia and it’s leaves seem to be curling. It’s in medium light and I’ve been watering it every couple days since it’s in a smaller pot. Just wondering if the curling leaves are normal or I should be doing something about it?
Help!! (Don’t mind my dirty nails lol) I found these bugs on a few of the plants in living room. I thought they could be thrips but they don’t look like the yellow ones I’ve been dealing with on my plants in a whole different story of my house. I also haven’t found any of the little white larvae that you’d normally see tons of with thrips. They seem to be leaving behind little black dots of poop and I’ve seen a couple of the jump when I touch them. I don’t think they’re springtails though because springtails only really live in the soil. I’ve seen a few that have the same shape as the black ones but they are pale and have two little hairs on their bum that stick up straight. Anyone know what these are?? Please don’t just say thrips lol unless you are certain. I have had my fair share of thrips issues and this seems quite different. Thanks!!
Hello! was just wondering if anyone could pin point what this white fluff on the top of the soil is and how to get rid of it?
Help what the hell are these?!?! It’s on my chive plant
Can you please help me with my plant
I divided my money tree from the grocery store into 4 separate pots after unbraiding it. This guy is pushing out a new leaf (in background) but it seems to be sunburned? Wondering if the damage is bad enough to warrant me chopping off this leaf or if she will be OK. Also open to other theories as to why this damage is appearing! My plants are all pretty crowded together and currently I have all of my money trees at my east-facing window.
This is my first sweet potato plant. It’s doing well overall except for the brown spots on a couple of leaves. Is it not getting enough light? Anybody with any experience?
