Hi! Might not be super urgent, but I noticed my Croton Mammi’s roots are really dry. They’re dry enough I could break them off easily (though I won’t do that unless I should). What do I do?

Hi plant friends, any idea what might be causing the brownish coloring on my fiddle leaf plant’s baby leaf. Overall the plant seems healthy. I bought it about a week ago and it was in a self watering pot. I have since transplanted it to a regular pot. Thanks for your advice.

Please help!! He’s my fav!!! Leaves are very curled. There is a humidifier by the plant and I keep the apartment at least 65 degrees. He looked so good last week :-( what else can I do? Will leaves uncurl? Thanks!

Hi y’all. Hoping someone can help me out here. My potho’s is slowing loosing its green. Some leaves are yellowing, while others almost have a brownish tint to them. I have lost a few leaves at this point, usually when I’m checking for bugs, the leaves come right off without much touch. Not sure the issue. It sits about 2ish metres from the window and sits in a west facing window and gets plenty of indirect sunlight. I got the plant at the beginning of November and it’s been watered one (last week). I have noted some thrips but I’ve sprayed the plant down with water with neem and dish soap a few times along with adding that to the roots in hopes of getting rid of the bugs. Anyone have any idea of what could have caused this or what I can do to prevent the rest of the leaves from yellowing and falling off. The camera didn’t really pick up the browning of the leaves

Can this plant be saved? My grandma gifted me this piece of plant from her own. It was nice and green until I planted it in soil. She told me not to water it too after but it stared yellowing and now after a week of no water it’s looking quite bad. Thoughts?

Please tell me I haven’t killed my husband’s jade plant. I left it outside for a few days in the cold while my family was visiting and I just saw it very droopy and sad. Ugh 😭😭

How can I help my spider plant? I have only had it for a week. My cat got a few bites of it; it has since been moved.

I’m not sure if my little cactus has gotten too much sun or not enough? Does anyone know what these brown spots are telling me?

Help! I separated my pothos a few weeks ago and all of my newly potted plants are starting to crisp at the ends. I’m following Planta’s care guide and have well draining soil in each. Any thoughts?

It was watering day for my teddy bear vine so I took it down to get a good look. It was a mess inside, tons of brown leaves and pieces just falling off. By the time I was done cleaning it, that pile was three times as big! I cut off the very ends of the salvageable pieces, dipped them in rooting powder and put most of them back into the plant (but also managed to get a little new one out of it). Any idea what causes it to do that? I had it happen once before also and did the same thing and it was good for a while. 🤷‍♀️

HELP!! Cantaloupe plant is dying!! I’ve put fungicide on it and it did nothing. I put fertilizer and it did nothing. It’s flowering, but the buds all fall off within a few days without blooming. I have no idea what’s causing it to have so many dry brown spots. Is there any hope for it?

Hi. I had a Cyprus and tropical plant on the front porch this past summer. I sprayed them with soap and changed the soil when I brought them in this fall. I was then plagued with gnats. I have done sticky tape, a sticky tape light, soap and even tried Hydrogen peroxide 3%. 4 tbsp per quart water to treat for eggs. They finally killed another tropical that was beside them. I finally put the two plants both outside again to get ahead. It seems to be working but it is getting cold out. Any suggestions?

Is it normal for plants sprayed with neem oil to get this stringy look? I don’t see any bugs or other signs of pests, and only see this on the leaves that were sprayed with neem oil so wondering if it’s just a part of the spray coming off? For background: I sprayed the plants maybe a couple weeks ago with neem oil for preventative reasons to keep off any potential pests. They haven’t been a probably since I got them a couple months ago

Does anyone have recommendations for a tomato plant? It has been lethargic for a while and then I found small egg (one) underneath the leaves. I’ve washed it multiple times and used neem oil but it seems tired.
