I discovered these babies today! I’ve been scratching behind my ear like a hound dog since. I was going to run out immediately for something to spray on them, instead I just rubbed them off. I only found 8, using a magnifying glass, but they are so small and the same color. You can only see them in silhouette on the stem. Everyone has had a thorough search for bugs. I’m sure there’s more and plan to keep a close eye on it. I’m going to make up a batch of soap spray and get some hydrogen peroxide. I’ve had a Pothos and a snake plant for a couple of years. They were ignored into pretty good condition. I’m trying to grow herbs in a window and am getting kind of plant obsessed but don’t have any experience. I appreciate all the advice on this app! So much easier than the web.

My Monstera Thai Constellation is browning but only on the variegated white parts. I checked the roots and it hasn’t got root rot and it’s in a chunky soil mix so i’m unsure why this is happening. Does anyone know how i can stop this from happening more. Thanks!

Did I make the right call? Scanned this plant today, and found it had signs of fungal infection. A white fuzzy substance was also seen forming on all stems near the roots. So I decided to toss it, worried it had started spreading to the other flower I removed all leaves that had any white spots, or heavy damage. Leaving only three of the leaves. I’ll also spray it with baking soda tomorrow just to make sure nothing still remains.

Does anyone know what has happened to my watermelon plant? Two days ago it looked healthy and fine and now this. I am watering it on schedule and have moved it to a little shadier spot since I live in the deep south. Can't think what else could have caused this.

Hey y’all! Please help! My pictum tricolor has yellowing leaves. I keep it in a terrarium to help with humidity and it gets 12 hours under a grow light. I last watered it 7 days ago and the top and bottom soil is still damp. What do I need to do stop the yellowing leaves? I took it out of its nursery pot and there’s no root rot. The AI diagnosis said it’s being overwatered and to take it out for an hour so the roots can dry a bit then repot it. Is that the right suggestion? TIA! 🫶🏽

My plant’s leaves are falling and turning yellow, but, the trunk looks good overall. If this has happened to you, advice would be greatly appreciated! (Has not been over or under watered)
