I've had no pest issues for a long time, then today I found aphids on several of my indoor-only plants. I collected/used rain water earlier this week, and guessing now that's how they came in. Has anyone had this happen? For those of you who collect rain water, best methods to ensure it's free of pests before using? Thanks in advance. đ
I have a bunch of succulents, and I put them all together thinking it would be better. I always throw my scraps in there for compost or maybe propagation. What should I do to help them in the middle of winter? I live in Illinois. The container has a detachable bottom which i sometimes take off and refill with water because some of the roots are hanging out. What should I do to keep them alive? Can I chop the dead stems off? Should I keep throwing my scraps in here or for possible propagation or nothing? Should I get a different container, if so now or what season? Should I add more soil? Should I let the roots hang out underneath in the water?
Anyone know what these little white things are. I feel like they are too small to be mealy bugs, but iâve never encountered them before so iâm unsure. Also if anyone knows what to do to get rid of them? Thanks !!!!

Question from a first time plant mom đ„č Whatâs the best way to get rid off pests? Thrips and spider mites to be specific đ„č
Why are my succulents having etiolation (i think). I have them under a grow lightâŠsucculents HATE me
I am very worried. I got this beautiful pothos as a christmas gift, but when I got it home, a big fat mosquito flew out and I noticed the soil looks rotted⊠well actually, in the second picture, it looks like a bunch of webbing in there. Iâve housed it outside, away from other plants in the meantime, in case itâs spider mites or an infestation. Anyone know whatâs wrong with him?
ready for winter to be overâŠ. why is this hobby so hard? sometimes I feel so discouraged when I see my plants struggling even though I do hours of research on each one. is it just me?
Happy New Year! Hereâs your reminder to check your plants (especially the water props đ„Č) for pests before the new year. Iâm having a great time đ dealing with a mealy bug infestation that I discovered on all of my water props this morning.
Got this Hoya that is clearly suffering from root rot. I cleaned her old soil off, did a hydrogen peroxide dip to get any fungus off of her roots and repotted. However, sheâs still not retaining water. I have her under a grow light with a humidifier but Iâm wondering if thereâs any tips and tricks to help save her!
Got this from Ikea for a fiver and wondered if anyone thinks it is salvageable? Some signs of life but unsure about if I can bring it back to its former glory đ„Ž maybe I have high expectations đ€·đ»ââïž
Is it normal for a Morocco to change colors like this? The outer edges of the leaves are turning a pale green and I was thinking it was over watered. Does this leaf even look like a problem and will it die or is this normal? Thanks!!!
My ZeeZee has more babies đźđI think I have to clean the leavesđđ»
Just saw this on my "imperial red" philodendron. Anything I should worry about? The rest of the plant looks fine.
I got this from my boyfriend, all put together in one small pot and tried rinsing the roots and re-potting into a 7 inch pot. There was originally a panda plant in here as well but it broke off at the root:(. I know itâs not healthy but I have no idea where to start with there being multiple plants in one. Leaves from all plants have been turning brown and squishy and detaching, as well as many brown spots on the leaves.
Iâm starting to give up on this plant, i named it Pep. Can someone help me or give me advice on what I can do to save Pep :(
