My Swiss cheese monstera has brown crispy sections all over several leaves. She seems okay, because her leaves aren’t very big, don’t have many if any holes, and the brown bits. Help please 🙏

Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this part of this plant? It almost looks like a different species but it’s growing out of the same branch as the leaves behind it. Worth noting that it grew this way, it didn’t grow and then change to this state. It’s also the only part of the whole plant that looks like this.
Can someone tell me why the base of my monstera is turning yellow? I'm watering her right now and i haven't been using the humidifier as much lately, could that be the issue? She's growing so well and I don't want her to die. Any tips?
These small white bugs are appearing on my purpletop vervain and have been making it sick. I thought they were aphids and have been spraying them with a commercial option. Am I incorrect in my identification, and does anyone have a recommendation to help me?
Can anyone tell me what I’m doing wrong with my African violet. The larger leaves have water stains which I’m aware of, but the new leaves are coming in with brown spots and I’m not sure why. I bottom feed it once a week when the soil is dry. Use an LED light since it’s not near a window. I stopped using my fertilizer (8-14-9) because the plant seemed to almost be getting burned by it. I rinsed out the soil as best I could to get rid of any excess fertilizer (which is why the leaves are a bit stained) I’m just not sure why it’s looking so bad… The edges of the leaves seem dried out on a few of them where the stains are so it almost seems like I’m not watering enough but I’m scared of root rot. Any advice?
Hello! The base to my Orchid had fallen off earlier this morning yet the roots of the plant are still green and healthy with no sign of root rot? I water my plant once a week along with a few sprays of orchid fertilizer once a week. Can someone please tell me what had happened and if my orchid can be saved?
I’ve had nothing but trouble with this guy since I got it. Does anyone know what is going on here? I removed this stem in case it’s something that can spread.
Can someone tell me what these white spots are on my rubber tree plant? Thanks for any response. 😉
Any tips on dealing with a fiscus moonshine? I just bought this three weeks ago and the bottom leaves are soft and one fell off. I’ve had a large one before and it didn’t do well. Just not sure if there’s certain tips/tricks or if I just wait it out
HELP idk what im doing wrong with my syngonium albo. Almost all of its leaves are starting to yellow, i had it in a very airy soil, mostly orchid bark and perlite. Wondering if maybe she’s drying out too fast, and staying dry to long? I just changed the soil and did peat moss, orchid bark and perlite will this help prevent the leafs from dying off any further? I absolutely love this plant. I can’t see it go down!
Hi! I just got this elephant ear plant and it has these holes that are yellow around them. They almost look like rips. What could it be? :( I’m a new plant mom
I understand these brown spots can be very harmful to my tree but how would I prevent the brown spots from coming back.(I already removed the sick leaves and it came back)
Is this product killing my plants? Been following Planta’s guidelines to keep my plants healthy yet as soon as I’ve used this for fertilizer my plants have turned bad?!
I just got a dieffenbachia and have been watering the soil + the leaves. she looks a bit dry and I’m wondering if watering the leaves themselves as well as the soil might be my issue? or if they like their leaves being watered?
I cannot provide this plant with the humidity it needs. It’s been curled for 2 weeks idk what else to do !!!
Im new here and im in need of help , if anyone can help me on how to help my baby or what im doing wrong , I started watering every week now im doing every two weeks , please help
Does anyone know if these are pests or mold or something else altogether? She’s otherwise healthy but for the occasional leaf that turns up like this. TIA
Can someone identify these? I brought these home to rescue and am new to caring for plants. These were all attached to the same stem piece so I separated. The roots are really long and thick, should I trim them back to fit into smaller pots or should I just place them in bigger pots? And what soil do you recommend for these? I have them sitting in water for now. Thanks for any advice!
How do I tackle thrips control while preventing burnout? Ok. So. I just found thrips in my new apartment. I have like... a lot of plants. I'm also at an extremely busy point in my life and feeling very overwhelmed. I know thrips are nasty (I've dealt with them before - effectively, or so I thought), and I have pesticide to use on them. I think I've hopefully caught this pretty early. My question is, which plants do I need to spray, and how often/how many times? I have 3 window ledges in my apartment, the closest of which are about a metre apart, and a plant stand about 2m away from those two windows. It's going to take probably hours to spray every single plant. And... oh, I shudder to think I might have to repot more than one. Or should I just shell out and buy some nematodes? Some advice would be very helpful, thank you so much!
Is my azalea unhappy?
