Hello! Iāve had an issue with fungus gnats and I think itās the soil Iāve been buying since they keep coming back after I repot plants. How do you know youāre buying soil from a good source and anything you recommend doing to treat the soil before potting to make sure there arenāt any gnat eggs in it? Thank you!
I've had this rubber plant for about a year now but its leaves have been falling and I've noticed browning of some leaves as well. Despite, leaves falling it has grown a new leaf. It was diagnosed with overwatering which I've worked on it for about 2 months now. Could I save my plant?

Hello! I am new here. I love plants and wanting to learn more about my plants since I am retired. This is a banana plant that was giving to me. Any comments are welcome. I am going to be replanting them in the ground.

Hey guys I have this alocasia that has had a few leaves that turn yellow does anyone know what Iām doing wrong or how to fix it? Iāve noticed that it got a new leaf is it letting one die to give a new one? Thank you
I got this lemon balm plant for free because it needs a little extra TLC. There are some brown spots on some leaves and I'm not sure it's suppose to be so vine-like. Any advice on care would be appreciated!
Hi! Iām a beginner and this is my beautiful baby Monstera. One of the leaves recently turned yellow, and Iām not sure what to do. I did repot it into a much bigger container not long ago, and I think I mightāve overwatered it so once I noticed the yellowing, I poured some water out and started using a humidifier. Lately, I havenāt been home as much, so it hasnāt been getting as much sunlight as usual. I just ordered some fresh soil and plant food, but in the meantimeā¦ should I cut off the yellow leaf or try to save it? And if I can save it, how do I go about it?š±šŖ“š¤š«¶š¼
Hi everyone, I got this lucky bamboo a couple months ago and itās been doing my pretty well. But the yellow-pale part worries me because it has black spots. The roots are looking great and itās had this pale branch since I got it, it hasnāt grown but idk if itās bad or not. Any recs?
Hi new here so going to be asking questions about my plants that I canāt find answers online! Any help is appreciated! I believe this is a snake plant, and I moved it from direct sunlight to filtered since the leaves were scorching but it hasnāt really grown for the last month or so, should I be worried?
Iāve had this orchid for a while and killed it with overwatering even though I was using wood chip āsoilā. Iām pretty sure itās a goner but itās been like this for over 3 months, is there any way to save it? The leaves not dying for that long gives me hope. I change the water every 3 weeks or so but add more plus hydrogen peroxide for oxygen
Found this and a spider in the planter when watering. Is this a spider mite? My plant just 2 inch, how should I do pest control without killing my plant?
My african violets have fuzzy mold on the dirt. Still in the nursery cup I bought it in a month ago and I have no idea what to do. Very new to this and would appreciate any help or tips. š«Ø
I have a plant (2 technically) infested with fungus gnats. IT IS SOOOOO ANNOYING!!!! I put tape that I folded over all around the side of the pot. Do you think this will work instead of little traps that are specifically made for it? If not, what do you guys recommend? Iām pretty sure the common denominator of which plants have them are the ones I repotted so Iām thinking the soil was probably badšš¤¦š»āāļø HELP š Also, the pot that has the gnats is a fairly big pot and has a layer of rocks at the bottom that I was trying to help use for extra drainage, but maybe this is also a problem? But even after chopping off her eye, could you not 4 feet long roots she had to be in this big of a pot. (See photo below) The other plant that has it in a separate room that I repotted with the same house plant soil has a tiny amount of rocks in the bottom of it as well. SEND HELP
Iāve propagated this turtle vine and am seeing one brown spot on each leaf, and a few leaves on the other propagation also have one. It only gets a few hours of direct sun so I doubt itās getting scorched. Could it be a fungus or something?
Question! Hey, Iām super new to the plant world and I have a question. I have a philodendron and I repotted it to a pot with holes and ever since Iāve notified right round the center that the soil seems to sit lower. Im wondering if I need to build the soil up to level with the rest of the soil or not. Would love any insight! Hopefully these pics give you an idea, it was hard to capture on my phone
Any body know what this is & if it is harmful? It is in my BOA & pothos
I got this maybe a month ago, second time with one. Didnāt realize the first time their high humidity needs until it was too late. And now this. What do I do? Or am I paranoid?
My Cherry Tomato plant looks good overall but has droopy leaves, They are not firm but are still green. I bought this plant three days ago and it was doing fine. Tomatos are already growing. If anyone knows what to do please tell me.
Hi everyone, I hope you can help me with my Shefflera. The ends of the leaves are turning yellow. I have it under a grow light, I water when it's about 3/4 dry, I repotted about five months ago. There are a few roots coming out of the bottom of the pot already, but not filling the pot, which is clear so I can check on the roots. Any help would be much appreciated.TIA.
