My Calathea has been like this for a while and I don’t know how to get it back. I have changed pots/soil. I have tried not over watering it. It sits in by an east facing window which seems like a good spot from what I’ve heard. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Who thinks this croton will live?
I brought it home on July 26 and transplanted it into some chunky soil. I don’t know if that happened right away and the roots might’ve been too wet in the beginning. I also was putting “ sexy plant Juice” on all of my plants and only one other had a problem getting burned under the light and that’s out of 50 of them. But this one got burned in one day! Now it’s lost all the two leaves. There still is no sign of a new leaf.
Will it live?

My begonia is browning where the leaf connects to the stem… is this mechanical damage or something more sinister?
This is my first begonia so all advice is appreciated!

hi everyone 👋🏻 my money tree is acting up and I’m not sure what’s going on. It’s been thriving since I pruned it in April and now the leaves are doing this… I haven’t changed anything at all (location, water, soil, humidity, etc.) I’d greatly appreciate any help!💚

I picked this up at a plant swap. What would you do with it? I moved it near a humidifier and it’s getting a filtered grow light. Any thoughts and tips would be appreciated.

Not sure why all of a sudden this plant I’ve had for 5+ years that’s been in the same planter its whole life thriving, is now turning yellow. Can someone please tell me what i need to do.

wonder if anyone can give me advice on this
i noticed that it hadn't grown in some time and the stems had started turning brown so i got it out the pot to notice there were no roots at all
the bottom part is brown but the end of it is still green so im not sure if it would indicate root rot at all?
can i put this in some water to help it grow its roots or is there anything else i can do to help it?

Planta says this is a caterpillar and to remove it and look for more. Because it’s outside it didn’t suggest really anything else. I looked and couldn’t find anymore. The darn thing was eating like a champ!! Does anyone suggest anything else?

This is the condition I got this pink princess in and would love advice on how to help her! She had some brown and yellow leaves when I got her in, her leaves are starting to become droopier. She had some root rot and had to cut come off. Is the pot too big? Etc.

Hello!! Any and all advice and observations of my 2 year old orchid is so appreciated and welcomed! It's 2 leaves began showing signs of discoloration ~60 days ago and I hate seeing it progress into what look like a burn. Since doing some research on the initial discoloration, I have switched from hard water to rain water but I am seeking more advice on what my next steps should be to preserve the plant. It lives outdoors, in the shade, on my patio in Florida. Thank you for reading!! 🌿

I might never buy another plant at Lowe’s on clearance. If I could tell you the grief this girl has given me from day 1 bringing her home! I will just summarize: fungus gnats. Treatment. Fungus gnats. Treatment. Repot. Fungus gnats gone. Black tips on leaves. Waiting and waiting for rebound. Waiting. Waiting. Black tips on leaves. Maybe there is root rot? Maybe her pt was too big? Take out of pot. Bingo root rot. Wash away root rot. Repot in smaller pot and put in my shaded patio for outdoor recovery. Went into shock immediately the next morning. All her leaves fell and have not picked back up. It’s been one week. 🥺😩🤦🏻♀️ do I cut all her leaves off now or just keep waiting? Third photo was the day I repotted her. She looked better then she does now. She seems intent on this suicide pact she made once she was placed on clearance in Lowe’s.

Do I need to change the soil on this plant? I bought it about a month ago and I think it’s doing quite well, but the soil has white stuff on the top and I read that could mean it’s time to change it.

looking for some advise, i have 2 rubber plants, one is thriving but one is really struggling, is this salvageable or is it too far gone?😭 i moved it to a different room with more light when it started struggling but that only made it worse, went from 4 leaves to 2 very quickly
any help is appreciated, these are my first rubber plants and i water them both the same frequency, how can one be so strong when the other is the exact opposite!

Moving worries - sunlight!
Hello, my family and I moved and we're having some difficulty with finding a spot similar in light levels to where we had our plants previously which was west facing with not much blockage and lots of trees. The window we currently have our plants in front of is southern facing and there's a house blocking a lot of the light aside from mornings and afternoons (pictured)
The way our house is set up there are no western facing windows we could put plants in (there's a small one with no blockage, but I'm not sure it's large enough and is directly next to a shower).
There is this window, a northern facing window which our bed currently sits below (possible spot) with very little blockage due to being second level, and an Eastern facing window with no blockages but in a planned spot for furniture.
There may be a second Eastern facing window and/or Western with no blockages, but the rooms are not set up yet and will not be for a bit yet.
There are drafts pretty much everywhere, just slight variations in how direct they are, and we could possibly make room for some grow lights.... my question is this window okay? At least for now?
I have bubble a bit lower as she's had some issues with algae growth, but Cherri seems to like here new places I've tried as it almost looks like she's flowering (never had a plant flower before so VERY confused) and she has a new shoot going up. These photos were taken maybe 15-20 minutes apart around 2 pm.

I have recently adopted a basil plant from Trader Joe. She was very root bound and so I repotted her to a bigger size with a mixture of potting mix, moss, and a bit of perlite. I have been monitoring the soil moisture with the moisture stick to ensure she has adequate water level. However, after a week her condition seem to worsened. She has a lot of new growth but a lot are flimsy and some have brown spots. The bigger leaves are turning yellow and die off pretty fast. I need help diagnose the problem here. Not sure if it is transplant shock syndrome and if so, should bring her indoor away from direct sunlight while she adjusting?
