What do I need to do for this spider plant? This baby has been with me since 2nd grade and he’s getting kinda droopy and less green looking :(

Can anyone tell me what kind of plant this is and if I can cut the stem and propagate it with water and replant so it will grow fuller??
Help! My ficus Audrey had done ok for 2-3 months but hasn’t put out a leaf so far, in the past week she dropped about 4 leaves, what am I doing wrong and how can I fix it! - I just watered her.
An update on my Christmas cactus: The one in the black pot ended up dying off, but when I went downstairs to water some other plants earlier I accidentally snapped some branches off of my grandma’s giant plants so I’ve packed them into a pot to try again. I dutifully neglected the red pot, and she rewarded me with a bud! Hopefully I get a couple more, but if not I’ll be content just knowing she’s happy.
I’m battling thrips right now. 😠I’ve used neem oil, Castile soap in water, and systemic granules. I’ve also been removing any leaves with thrip damage, and yet they persist. Does anyone have any tips for eradicating thrips?
Trying to stay consistent and spraying Captain Jacks Dead Bug Spray every three days after noticing some spider mites on our ficus elástica. Came across these dudes on a philodendron across the room and am wondering if I need to adjust my treatment plan. They were moving across the surface of a few leaves.
Heyyy everyone, I’m new to the plant community and I’m struggling a bit. This is my new baby I purchased from the grocery story but it hasn’t done great since I got it home and repotted. Can anyone provide tips to get this plant baby back to health. I’ve already cut off leaves and it’s still looking bad.
Hi guys! My rubber tree got put outside and some of her leaves burned while she was there. I left her alone for a couple of weeks, but she hasn’t really been growing as much and the leaves seem to be getting worse. Should I cut them or just keep leaving her alone?
Hello everyone, I just got home from being away for a week and my Cissus Discolor has these really strange bumps on quite a few leaves. Does anyone have any idea what these are? Oedema perhaps?
Hey! I need some help with my Alocasia if anyone has advice. It had spider mites a few weeks ago so I treated it with Captain Jack’s Dead Bug Brew and it seems to have completely eliminated them. Since then, it has dropped all its leaves and they looked like this picture. Does anyone know if this is just a result of the spider mites or if there’s something wrong with the watering/lighting? I also don’t see any new growth and it seems to be declining, so that’s alarming. Advice would be very much appreciated:)
Hi! I have an angel wing begonia that I brought home last week. I’ve noticed that the leaves are dry and sort of shriveling at the border and now closer to the center. The research I did makes me think powdery mildew. Any thoughts?
Can I please get instruction on using Neem oil. - how do I mix it? - do I rinse it off after a bit? -Is it safe for all plants? ie: Calathea, Lipstick, Goldfish, Peperomia? Thanks
Hey everyone, do you have any recommendations on properly supporting this plant? It’s grown to the point where its weight is causing it to lean far forward. It probably won’t be in good shape for much longer.
Does anyone know why the tips and edges of the leaves are brown and crunchy? I think it’s a Japanese Bird’s nest fern. I have very little plant knowledge beyond the basics so feel free to dumb down any advice. Thanks in advance!
Been losing more leaves than usual. Light and water hasn't changed. No pests. Could it be that it's time for a larger pot?
My sister gave me her avocado tree, and it was sitting in a car for about three hours, so it’s a little sad right now. I gave it new soil with perlite, Coco coir, and mixed in some warm castings and growth hormone, and I have it placed inside near a window for now. Do we think it’ll bounce back?
My alocasia has these white strips all over its leaves. Not sure if it’s a water issue, not enough sun, or fungal issue. Thoughts?
I just purchased this rubber plant about three weeks ago and it seems to be doing really well. New shoots, and new leaves constantly popping out. However, some of the leaves are turning brown on the tips almost like a sunburn. I have moved it as far away from the window as I possibly can, but they’re still spreading. Anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this?
Aaaaaand this is why I’m not a fan of Hoyas. For me they have just been mealy bug collectors. 🤬
Noticed this on my wax plant and is now getting worse. Repotted about 3 weeks ago because it was ready for more space. Are they bugs or mold? Or something else? I have it quarantined regardless, just want to know what it is so I can start treating. Help!!!
