Looking for good soil brand recommendations? Began my first plants with soil that contained miracle grow (my mistake) fungus gnat galore. Switched too Rosy soil. And Iāve had good luck! Just looking for any other recommendations you guys have had luck with!
Hello, an advice for my dying Pothos?! Iāve tried all the advice I can find online so far and she continues to flop and yellow. Thanks!
I cannot get this plant to stop turning yellow and have browning tips! Idk what to do anymore and need some help!
Help! My dracaena looks stressed! I recently repotted it and watered it. The roots were healthy. Now, the leaves are yellowing and have spots. Iām afraid to do anything besides move the pot to a brighter location. I did the stick test and itās a little damp. I watered it last week. Should I take it outside?
Sad spider plant! My spider plants leaves are droopy, yellowing, and turning brown. Ive been following the care schedule in Planta for watering. Its in my bedroom that has a NE facing window and bright indirect light. I think maybe the pot is too small ? But i am still a newbie with house plants and wanted some advice before i repot him.
Is this sun damage?
Planta is telling me to water my Peace Lily everyday in April. Does this make sense?
My rattlesnake calathea has these random marks on the leaves. Itās not everywhere but these leaves i cut. I got this plant 1.5 months ago from a local place and repotted it due to having fungus gnats. no more fungus gnats present! yay. i have it under a grow light on my plant stand. i water when soil is 2 inches dry and fertilize whenever plants tells me. i use distilled water and fertilize with a 20-20-20 when prompted to. Any idea??? thank you! Other wise it dances at night and day and all day long honestly!
Help! I've had this birds nest fern for over a year and it's living in my bathroom. Big north facing window with diffused light. It went 45 days waterlogged and not taking water. I think I had too much water in the pebble drainage tray. I repotted it in indoor soil mixed with perlite. Trimmed up the soggy roots and brown leaves and downsized the pot. That was 15 days ago and the soil is still very wet. I'm not seeing any new growth. It's not wilting or browning further. I'm not sure what to do to help.
What is this black on leaves of jade?
Does anyone know why my Parlor Palm is so leggy, leaves drying and turning black w/brown spots?
This is a Thai con, I got it in a plant exchange with someone and Iām pretty sure this plant came with thrips. I havenāt seen any thrips in weeks, but the plant still has rust color from when they were causing damage. Issue now though is that Iām noticing these bumps on the leaves, they donāt appear to be any type of bug. I havenāt seen movement, I tried to pick them off and the bumps donāt budge. You will have to zoom in on the photos, these are the best I could get. Any ideas? Plant is sprayed for pests regularly and I use systemic granules on a schedule since the thrip issue. Iām thinking of chopping it down, giving a soak in plant soap, and repot and letting her start over.
Help string of pearls experts!!!! I got this string of pearls back in March because I thought I was up to the challenge, but she proved me wrong š«© She was perfect for a while up until today when I was going through all my plants and saw that she looked absolutely dreadful!! Any clue what Iām doing wrong or whats wrong with her?
Well, I HAD a beautiful gardenia that I bought almost a month ago from Whole Foods. In a little pot, it bloomed on me overnight! Unfortunately, this past week I had an urgent family emergency to attend to, and had to leave it alone in my office for a full week as of today. See pics for before and after. Is there no recovery for it? I will say, even before I left, two flower buds were turning yellow and wouldnāt fully bloom. Unsure what the problem isāhumidity, temp, water, sunlight, I donāt know. Please advise! ;(
šØEMERGENZZšØGot this beauty for Valentines Day from my partner. In the last 2 wks or so Iāve noticed a few tips browning and some other spots; I REALLY want to nip this situation in the bud ā whatever it is ā before it gets worse. She was THRIVING when I got her (last pic). Lives in a north facing floor to ceiling breezeway window. Bright but definitely indirect light. Have not repotted since brining her home. Have only watered two times since February. Have not fertilized since it came with the little green pellets in the soil. Any thoughts on course correction? Zendaya thx you in advance šŖ“

Why is my peacock plant leaves getting brown around the edges?
I planted two of these Green Mountain Boxwood 2-3 weeks ago in Columbus OH. They are both potted and in my courtyard. I sprayed them with Neem Oil on Friday. Am I missing something?
Hi! I recently purchased this philodendron from Trader Joeās I think itās a pink princess bc of the stem colors. When I first got it the variegated parts were brown, but the mostly white leaf was beautiful and it was putting out new growth quickly. The day after I bought it, one of the leaves formed this fluid filled bubble and I ended up cutting it off when I noticed it was growing. I then repotted it into well draining soil and a slightly bigger pot. A few days later and the variegated spots on the leaves are all turning brown now! It gets bright indirect light from both East and West facing windows, and Iām being careful to not overwater. Please help!
