Iâve owned succulents for a few years now. They were stagnant for a while and now they look like theyâre dying. Iâve changed pots before and the soil. They used to all be in their individual pots and they were still stagnant. Any help would be appreciated!

I rescued Orchi awhile ago now and I was finally seeing new signs of growth. The plant was very happy and then in past week or so I noticed two of the leaves turning yellow the new baby sprout and the rest of the plant looked healthy so I thought they were just leaves that were old and making room for new growth but now the babyâs died and I donât understand whatâs happening. Itâs darkened from the root so I can only assume root rot but it seemed so happy and I donât think I overwater it. Any ideas???

Does anyone know what these markings and spots are? Theyâre on all of my Alocasia emergent leaves and Iâm going crazy cause I canât visibly see any pest. They donât multiply once the leaf has emerged, it stays the same. So they happen when the leaf is still in forming stage as when itâs already unfurling, it comes with these.
My Micholitziana seems to be affected the most with those longer river-like markings, all other Alocasias with sturdier leaves have dots.
I havenât seen any thrips larvae or typical thrips damaged silvery wrinkled leaves. No spider web, dots after emerging or any movement on the plant. No stunted growth or deformed leaves. What could it be?đ«

Can anyone tell me how to better care for this plant? Got it recently from a woman who didnât want to care for it anymore and was gonna toss it.
Repotted it into a clear nursery pot with plenty of drainage and semi chunky soil mix. When I repotted it didnât have a very good root system it was very small for the amount of plant there was. So I chopped the long vines off and propagated them to allow the plant to focus on a smaller amount. It gets plenty of light everyday. Not sure what I am doing wrong. đ€·đŒââïž The leaves are curling and drooping. Any advice?Thanks in advance.

I have several questions. I've had a busy month and have not paid enough attention to my plants. I've watered them but not really looked at them. First off my Anthurium has been acting crazy lately. I've done everything I could to make it happy. Last night I decided to take it down to the roots. I didn't find much there either. I then took my money tree down to it's roots because it is looking weepy and loosing lots of leaves. Also has spots on most of its leaves. it's roots looked good but a little bound. I went to home depot, got 2 new planters and all the soil, went home and re planted them both. This morning I watered the rest of my plants and found an ugly leaf or 2 on my monstera. I had planned on re potting it anyways so since I had the soil I went ahead and did so. I don't know what's going on with my plants. I've looked for bugs and found nothing. I'll leave some pictures. If any one has any advice I would be truly grateful.

My zebra plant is wilty/limp. Itâs been in the same spot for two weeks and was fine until the other day. Nothing has changed, soil or watering wise. The weather has changed a bit, but what could be going on??? The leaves used to stand straight out.

Can anyone help me cure my friendâs plant? Itâs a pothos we recently repotted but it looks like maybe spider mites in the soil? Or maybe a mold or fungus?Her mother gave her this plant 6 years ago before she passed away so this plant is very sentimental to her so Iâd like to help her. Another thing to note: before we repotted, one of the stems was turning yellow, and she had not repotted since receiving this plant, except maybe some new soil on top, which is why we repotted. Roots looked good when repotting. She prefers homemade remedies if anyone can help please and thank you!

Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this part of this plant? It almost looks like a different species but itâs growing out of the same branch as the leaves behind it. Worth noting that it grew this way, it didnât grow and then change to this state. Itâs also the only part of the whole plant that looks like this.

Can someone tell me why the base of my monstera is turning yellow? I'm watering her right now and i haven't been using the humidifier as much lately, could that be the issue?
She's growing so well and I don't want her to die. Any tips?

These small white bugs are appearing on my purpletop vervain and have been making it sick. I thought they were aphids and have been spraying them with a commercial option. Am I incorrect in my identification, and does anyone have a recommendation to help me?

Can anyone tell me what Iâm doing wrong with my African violet. The larger leaves have water stains which Iâm aware of, but the new leaves are coming in with brown spots and Iâm not sure why. I bottom feed it once a week when the soil is dry. Use an LED light since itâs not near a window.
I stopped using my fertilizer (8-14-9) because the plant seemed to almost be getting burned by it. I rinsed out the soil as best I could to get rid of any excess fertilizer (which is why the leaves are a bit stained) Iâm just not sure why itâs looking so badâŠ
The edges of the leaves seem dried out on a few of them where the stains are so it almost seems like Iâm not watering enough but Iâm scared of root rot. Any advice?

Hello! The base to my Orchid had fallen off earlier this morning yet the roots of the plant are still green and healthy with no sign of root rot? I water my plant once a week along with a few sprays of orchid fertilizer once a week. Can someone please tell me what had happened and if my orchid can be saved?
