Iâm trying to grow some Bonsai Lotus plants, and everything seemed fine until it rained last weekend, then I started getting algae in my pot. Need some suggestions to save my plants from the algae, without killing them!!!đ«Ł Oooorrrrrr, am I over reacting?đ€·đŸââïž

One of the leaves of my plant seemed to be dead but some slimy, oey, goey stuff came out of the leaf đ What should I do and what is happening to my plant? đ± Please comment back if you have any ideas on what I should do and if you know what is happening to my plant. đȘŽ Thank you so much âșïž I really appreciate it đđŒ

Need suggestions please. My monstera was overwatered and drowning. I repotted it with fresh potting soil, mixed in some of the original soil for familiarity, and removed the dead/rotten roots in the process. Pruned the dead leaves after repotting. Watered it very, very lightly about a week ago. Followed all other recommended care instructions, but it still looks rough. Is there hope for it? What else should I do?

Hi guys! I think my TĂ plant has been a bit sick. First, noticed she had spider mites and have been treating her with Captain Jackâs Ready To Use Neem Max once a week while also misting daily to down out the mites Then I had gone on a trip and came back to see that she had dropped a ton of leaves (most were yellowing to begin with - but not all)⊠figured this may be due to overwatering so I let her sit out/dry for a bit. While sheâs still got new growth, what else can I do to help her grow faster + heal? Sheâs bare now and wondering if sheâll fill back out. Thanks!

I saw a couple (not many) gnats by my money tree and Iâm low-key freaking out thinking it may be the beginning of an infestation đŹđ am I overreacting??

Helpâčïž Everytime my Hoya Krimsom Queen buds a new white leaf, it shrivels up and falls off before maturing. Sheâs done this three times now - what can I do better to get them to survive?đ

My gardenia has mealy bugs and the leaves are turning yellow. I used insecticidal soap and pruned off the infected branches, but I think itâs time for alcohol treatment. Itâs not absorbing water well, so I suspect it needs a larger pot so the substantial roots have more room. I know gardenias are tricky, and I live in an area that gets cold winters and minimal sun, so I bring it inside. I donât know if I should keep trying or just give up. My climate is not ideal for a plant like this, which makes it even harder.

Just got this dragonscale alocasia. Unfortunately, it isnât doing too well and I noticed it has a mealy bug problem. I sprayed it with diluted rubbing alcohol and dipped a qtip with rubbing alcohol and dabbed it onto some heavily infested parts as best as I could, but Iâm not sure if I got them all. I havenât repotted the plant yet but I will very soon. Iâm trying to separate some of the corms in the soil and start propagating them in case the main plant doesnât make it. Any tips?

I am trying to propagate a bunch of Sunpatients from my mother plant. The propagations are growing rather quickly but the foliage looks pretty rough with a bunch of spots. Any advice or treatments?

I have a desert rose that I pruned because it was wilting. Itâs been two months, it hasnât grown and it hasnât died, just gotten pruny. Any way to save it and make it grow?

Just got an alocasia for the first time ever. Her soil pH, draining, light, watering, etc are all great. Was gone for a week where she was watered and given sunlight but no humidity. Is that whatâs wrong?

What are these tiny bugs? They are crawling all over the soil. Please help!

Hi everyone! my plant is getting some of these spots on her new leafs, does anyone know what it is or why it could be happening?
nature luvr
anyone know what this discoloration indicates? overwatered? sunburn? *can confirm itâs not a pest problem!
Rain đ§đ±
Caught the gnats early on, thank goodness đźâđš treated with hydrogen peroxide to kill those pesky larvae and finally got the sticky catchers.
Jules
Is this mold? I think it is so I cut it off or did I do it for nothing? Iâm thinking that if it is, itâs from using that neem oil, soap and water mixture everyone online says to use for gnat pesticide

My Spanish lavender is looking sort of dead in places. I am very new at taking care of plants, and bought this one because I heard itâs good at keeping bugs away! Iâm concerned about the little orange bits in the flowers. I scattered some flower fertilizer into the soil when I repotted it about a week ago, and it has rained very heavily the last two days so I havenât been watering it for that reason. Prior to that I was watering it about once a day until I saw water leave the drainage hole in the bottom. I moved it further into the sunlight, but please let me know if youâre aware of any specific problems that could be causing this! My friend bought a plant from the same place as me and told me that their plant had mites so that could be an issue as well.

My peperomia has been losing leaves for weeks. I tried everything from moving its location to changing the soil but today I finally decided to just cut what was left and propagate it, and then repot the stems into a smaller pot. Please let me know any tips to try and get this little guy healthier. Iâm also not entirely sure if the original stems will still leaf, but I repotted them anyways.
