Hi everyone! Can someone please help me identify this white, crusty, flakey stuff that’s in my Croton? I’m not sure if it’s calcification from my tap water, but I don’t think I’ve always watered with tap, and none of my other plants have this specific substance on them. It’s on the base of this leaf, and then this leaf started drying and curling in. The white stuff is on some of the wood chips in the soil. The white stuff flakes off and doesn’t leave anything behind. But the fact that this was on the base of this leaf and now it’s dying, I feel there’s a connection, but I’m not sure what exactly it is and how to treat it? Any help, advice, suggestions I’d really appreciate it! I’ve been having trouble getting this guy to grow.

I cut off a piece of my Mini Monstera to propagate but now the stem that’s left has turned black and soft. Do I have root rot or is it something else? What can I do to fix this? The plant is still growing new leaves.

Hey, please don’t roast me. I’m a beginner and purchased this plant at a plant event. I believe it is an elephant ear plant. I watered it before a 4 day vacation and came back and it looks like it’s dying. How can I help it? Any advice helps.

Would anybody able to tell me what friends my Oregano has going around it? I’ve only had it for about a month now, look like grass and a mystery plant in front of the tag.

Does anyone know why my plants leaves look like this? I just got it a few days ago and the leaves definitely did not look like that. Does anyone know what the problem is?

Anyone have any advice for me? She’s placed on my tv stand that gets light and she seems to do good there, but the leaves under the bigger ones keep dying off. I was thinking there isn’t enough lighting but every time I move her to my window the bigger leaves get brown and die off. I know pink polka dots can be dramatic but I didn’t know she’d be this dramatic lol

Can't find the Old Post where y'all talked about how to use this in your house plants to prevent fungus gnats and someone please refresh my memory, how often and how much? 🥴😩🤦🙏

I've been growing this pilea for a few months now but recently I added leca balls and noticed something else was growing in the pot. I've left it alone out of curiosity but I suspect that it's a single blade of grass 😂 no idea how it got there. Does anyone have a guess as to what it could be? Should I take it out??

99% sure my snake plant has fungus gnats, and when I bought it last friday (4/11) it hasnt dried up since then. Should I just repot it at this point?

Hi friends, where exactly would you snip on my Maranata plant? There are yellow and brown leaves from when I shocked it before but I do see new growth. Could you help me to know where I should be doing my cutting? Thank you in advance.

If anyone can recommend anything for my pink princess it would be highly appreciated. I’ve inserted pictures of the same leaves, plus one more, but a month later and the browning has gotten a lot worse. It sits under a grow light every day that turns off at night, and I make sure not to over/under water! None of my other plants have this issue either! Any tips?
