Halp - our dieffenbachia has been growing like crazy but all of a sudden we’re getting discolored leaves towards the bottom. Curious someone’s thoughts on what we’re doing wrong.

Good morning! I’m having an issue with my snake plant. For the first time in four years, there’s a change in this plant. I went to water it today, and noticed one of the leaves has turned brown and is squishy at the base of the plant. Doing some research, it may be due to overwatering or root rot, but I wanted to see if anybody had any other opinions. I’ve decided to skip watering it today just in case. Any advice?

Haaaalp! Is this the dreaded “Damping Off” disease? My parlor palm has been upset lately and for the life of me I couldn’t figure out why. Some of stalks have been easily pulling or falling out. Today, I noticed this white fuzz at the base of some the roots. Could it be the damping off fuzz? If so, how do I go about treating it, or is it a loss?

I’ve had this swiss cheese monstera since January, and over the past month these crisp brown areas have appeared. A new leaf began to sprout, but browned and died before it was able to unfurl. I’ve checked the roots and they seem to be fine. She in a south-facing window and gets bright, indirect light. Any thought on what could be causing this?

Help please! My Pancake (Pilea peperomioides) is looking sad. I got her at the beginning of the month and a couple leaves were droopy, repotted her a week ago because there were some extremely tiny white bugs in the soil (not spider mites though), but now the droopy leaves have started turning yellow and developing brown spots. I haven’t watered her since repotting and the soil is still a bit moist, but there was no sign of root rot. Ideas? Thanks! 🙏🏼✨

I got a majesty palm from Costco, took her home and transplanted her and I’m not sure if it was shock, low humidity, lack of sunlight, or all of the above but she’s almost completely dead now. Looking for tips on how to help revive her. Since she has almost died, I moved her closer to the window to get about 4 hours direct sunlight, I bought a humidifier and it’s sitting next to her and I have trimmed the fronds. Is there anything more I can do? One photo is the day I brought her home, the other is her now

Unfortunately, I think I have scorched my money tree, too close to lights I guess. What should I do to help fix?

This amaryllis was beautiful and now her leaves turned yellow half of them fell off and the ones that didn’t are limp. Here are pictures of everything. Please help me figure out what’s wrong? There’s some white fuzz on roots so maybe and the tips of the roots are kind of red but google says it’s healthy I don’t know.

Why does my moon flower have this?

First off this plant after having it for awhile is just now starting to root in its medium. I am not sure why it took so long. I am getting new growth but a lot of the lower leaves are shriveled and have developed these bumps. I just pulled it out of its soil and the new roots are white. I keep all my plants together and none of the others have these bumps. I haven’t see any pests. Any idea what this could be?

I’ve posted about this nuisance before but wanted to ask to see if I can find out what I did wrong. I repotted this beauty because it had been a year and a half and throughout that time hadn’t bloomed again after the initial bloom at purchase. Once I repotted all the roots shriveled up despite watering it. Now I am left with one root and a few places where I see roots are starting to form, see picture below for set up now. I’ve removed it from its medium because clearly that wasn’t working (clear pot with holes to allow air flow and miracle mix of the orchid variety). I stopped putting the clear pot in the decorative pot because I thought lack of sunlight on the roots and bark might be part of the problem… at this point i am not sure if it’s a lost cause or if there is something else I can try to fix it.

Yall, I don’t know what to do about this plant. Its an elephant foot plant and I water it once a week. I assumed that since its a leafy plant it would need more water, now I’m questioning it because it is just getting worse. What do yall think?

After & before photos How can I perk my pink angel back up? This photos is 2 days after repotting. Do I need to wait or do I need to do something before she dies 😭

I was really hoping to get some help about a potential pest problem. I’m pretty new to the house plant community and I’m not quite sure what happened. My garden croton over the last week has had its leaves dry up and start drooping and when I pulled him out of the nursery pot there was a bunch of mite looking bugs surrounding the bottom of the pot. I have isolated the plant but with the plant looking so rough should I repot or is my plant done for? If this is a pest any recommendations for my other plants would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!

How do I fix my poor calla lily? Shes looking a little sad today.

Ok here’s what I’m thinking. I bought this monstera a couple of years ago and the prior owner kept it in a rather dog place so it’s gotten quite leggy. You can see right to left how thin the main stem is and then it begins to slowly thicken. I’m afraid it won’t be able to bear the weight eventually so I’m thinking…chop and prop? Air layer? How do I just remove that two foot long section of leggy stem and keep the thicker growth on top? Thoughts?

Howdy! I have Pilea Peperomioides that produces some tiny, sticky, clear droplets on the stem. Do you guys think it’s from pest infestation or is it normal and I don’t have to worry about it? Can’t see any bugs/insects, but maybe I’m just inattentive.
