Some of my plants have signs of mealy bugs. No idea how they got in since i live in an 8th floor apartment and I haven’t brought in a new plant since October2025. But after I repotted my 3 weeks ago dessert roses I noticed they had that cobwebby stuff on the leaves. I got the alcohol and wiped the leaves. Have a spray with neem oil. But I keep seeing the little buggers every other day. I repotted my snake plant at the same time and I’m worried I cross contaminated someone. Any advice? How long and how regularly should I be checking and spraying before I give up an send my plants to the graveyard?

I got this baby Pilea depressa plant a few weeks ago and I’m not sure exactly how to care for it. It looks sad and crispy to me. I just watered it but what can I be doing to make it happier?

Nettie went from this, to this in about 3 days! Help! I didn’t do anything…no way she was over watered (got her a month and a half ago or more and haven’t given her a drink yet, as was recommended) what’s happening to her?

Why is my monstera mint curling? I’ve never had this happened with any monstera I’ve ever had.

Is this normal for my a Allocation it's producing babies

Noticed some small bags or flies around my tropical indoor plants, I assume they love the moist soil. Does anyone have any good recommendations for indoor plant pest spray?

Found out millipedes aren’t bad for your plants… but anyways today was the first hot day since last summer and found about 100 of these in my monstera plant that’s INSIDE. Not sure if the heat triggered them but I’ve never seen one in my plant till today, about 20 on the soil and 20 dead in the water catching tray… Do you think they were hibernating in there this whole time??? I’ve never seen a single one and I’ve had this plant for about a year

My pothos has been thriving despite me fighting off mealy bugs since November. But now, over the past two weeks, about 75% of the leaves have turned yellow. The soil is very dry even though I watered it a few days ago and these spots have developed. I typically water every 10-14 days and live in a very dry climate. Am I under watering my plant or are the bugs running their course??

Peacock plant, lower leaves are all brown and crispy? It looks so compact down there…does it need a bigger pot?

Can someone tell me what’s going on w this yellow leaf? I only water her when her soil is fully dry and I use a moisture meter to determine when that is. She’s not root bound just yet aside from a one very small root sticking out of her drainage holes. I’ve had her for about 3 months now…my apartment is a bit on the cooler side. It’s usually about 69 degrees Fahrenheit in the day and about 65 at night but she gets full indirect light.

Why is my snake plant growing a stalk like this? I know they like to be crowded but is it possibly too crowded?

My bonsai has been losing a lot of his leaves so I’m wondering if I should move him to my bedroom or am I just under watering him? Also my bonsai’s pot doesn’t have any drainage holes so is that also a problem?

Does anybody know why this is happening? My polka dot plant has its leaves curling and some of the tips are brown. Is not being underwater. Maybe overwatered but is in a self watering pot. Water when the app tells me or if the soil is dry. Any tips or idea of whats going on?

Apparently I struggle with overwatering and just being nervous in general about my new plants’ moisture levels. Are watering globes a good investment?

My silver dragon is dying I think. I thought by transferring it to Leca it would thrive more and it didn’t. So I put it back in soil took off the roots that had root rot and added root drops to the most recent watering. Need help! What’s going on? This is a before and current picture

My cactus is struggling suddenly. It has some graying spots along the shoots and a yellow spot around the base. It’s located in an eastern facing window where it’s been for the past 3 years. The soil is very dry and the spots don’t feel super mushy or super dry. I can’t tell if it’s from sun burn or root rot 😅 Any ideas?

I got this little Christmas cactus as a freebie and its roots look fuzzy. Is this normal or a fungi?

Hi all! My Lady Valentine Chinese Evergreen hasn’t grown for months. I’ve given her slow release fertilizer pellets and moved her to my sunniest window, but nothing’s changed. Does anyone have a suggestion?
