I think I just overwatered my creeping Jenny, but it drooped like this basically overnight:( is it going to be okay if I just give it time and light when I can? I’m going to refrain from watering for a good couple days but if there’s anything else I can do I’d appreciate any advice!

Any citrus hobbyists? My Meyer lemon tree went through a very rough patch 6+ months ago (scale & fungus gnats due to bad soil and environment shock of replanting) I saw a horticulturalist who had me replant with Fox Farms Ocean Forest and a fertilizer. I moved the plant into a tent with a humidifier and grow light to create a healthy environment. It turned around and was looking better and better with around 3 flowering/blooming cycles but it’s not grown new leaves and now this branch seems to be dying off. I actively monitor for scale and I haven’t seen any signs of fungus gnats. Any thoughts on why the branch is dying? And not growing new leaves?

How do I use neem oil on my indoor plants? For all those pesky gnats, fruit flies, bugs that bother my plants?

This rubber tree was in a darker spot in our office. She didn’t get as much light. I noticed today that her bottom leaves were dropping and/or drooping. I moved her here to get more sun. I’m new to this so - IS she drooping or am I just worried? Any suggestions to help me get her back to thriving if she is drooping? She has had two new leaves in the past two months and every stalk has a new leaf forming at the top. Maybe I’m just paranoid. I got her for $20 at a flea market and don’t want to lose her!

Hi!! So I’ve never sprayed my plants with anything for like…protection? I order plants from a small business and they always talk about the spraying they do with all natural stuff (leaves residue on the plants but “don’t worry it just washes off and does no harm”) ! I was wondering what I could spray my hoard with to just be extra safe and prevent and deter any fungus or pests from making home in them!! Ive got quite a collection and I’d hate for any of them to get sick!! Just looking for a routine ALL NATURAL spray 🥰 thank you in advance!!

I need some help diagnosing my wandering dude. These brown spots started appearing and growing along with him feeling very stiff and dull. I have been watering him once a week to avoid rot.

Very sadly neglected Norfolk Island Pine. It was in a too dark of a corner and too close to a heater and an air purifier. Anything I can do at this point?

What is wrong with my monstera? Three of the leaves have these brown spots. The new leaf has chunks missing and some brown on it. Should I repot it? I just got it one or two weeks ago.

I think my baby tails has died :( he’s an ivy in my south facing window- he’s just so unhappy and has been since I brought him home- he doesn’t have drainage, is that the problem? Some of his leaves have simply fallen off. Is it too late to save my lil guy? Please help 💚🥲

I just got this fiddle leaf fig over the weekend and there were no spots. I had to drive two hours home, and the plant was left in the car for a couple hours after I got back because of work. The next day, I saw that a few leaves are turning brown. Do these spots look like they are because of the heat of the car? And will they come back, or should I cut the brown-ish leaves off to save energy?

I saved a Monstera Adansonii from Walmart that was being completed neglected. It was three separate cuttings which I repotted into three different pots. I noticed this particularly one was growing a new leaf which got stuck in the petiole it was forming from. After several days of it being in that position I took it out of the petiole and unfurled it and found that half the leaf was completely brown and dried out. After removing it I was left with a big chunk of leaf missing lol. Does anyone know what could have caused this? Neglect from the store, repotting during growth, getting stuck in the petiole? Would love to know in case I go through this again in the future

My Aloe Vera is starting to brown/yellow. I assumed it was because i watered it with tap water, and we have a lot of lime in the water where i live - i am now watering all plants with rain water from a butt. I have also done a diagnosis on the app and it has come up with ‘watering imbalance’. I am due to water in a couple of days, but the soil is dry. Any tips? Is this correct? Should i trim the leaves?

Hi there. How can I see what plants are sick and in care and their routine? Or after time do they just stop with the care routine?

I believe my monstera deliciosa has a fungal infection from being overwatered. I am cutting down on my watering and reducing it to every other week, but was just wondering if I should cut these parts off or just leave them?
