I'm not sure if I treated this right but I looked it over really close and didn't see any bugs till a little speck on my phone started to move so I sprayed it with this spray. Any thoughts would be great. Thanks

I planted my new Rosa Radsunny 2-weeks ago, and I made the mistake of watering everyday for the first 8 days. It’s rained an additional 3 days. I overwatered and I’m not sure if this is salvageable, any advice for a new plant dad?

HELP! I'm not sure what is happening with my plant!!! It is a Bromeliad plant. Is it too dark? I last watered it a week ago. The top soil is moist.

I really need help with my Easter cactus. I have no clue where to start with it anymore. I have an attachment to it considering it was my Nanas plant and I just don’t want it to die but idk if can bring it back.

I am growing an avocado plant at home in Miami. I have recently noticed these holes in some leaves. No snails or visible pests other than the little flies in the picture…there are also some dried edges. Help!

if my monstera is getting way more light than it ever has before and it’s starting to give me smaller leaves with less fenestrations (probably spelled that wrong🫣) does that most likely mean her problem lies in the roots?? i’m really praying it’s not root rot. the leaves look so happy and healthy and firm but they are smaller!! so frustrating

My alocasia Polly was dying in the dirt so I am trying to move her into water. Does anyone know what could be wrong? She was in a terracotta pot with drainage holes and had jsut been repotted from her nursery pot.

hi, just joined community. The newest leaves on my bird nest fern are deformed. Other than that, it seems super healthy with lots of new growth, ever since i started using Planta several months ago. Is this a disease or part of normal development? Thanks!!

Hello plant community! This is my first monstera, so I’m not sure how to take the best care of them. I do have to change the soil to something less compact and more airy, but I noticed the leaves are looking off. some of the white patches are losing their color and the leaves are starting to brown at the tips. Any idea what I should do to help it or what could be the problem?

Hello! I have a a pothos that needs a repot due to poorly draining soil. But the problem is I can’t buy better soil for a while. Most of the individual plants in this pot are okay but this one with more white is very soft and wilted, although there is no discoloration which is weird. But I really want this plant to live so is there anything I can do with the wilty ones in the meantime?

What are these spots on my philodendron narrow? Don’t mind the dust, I’m just about to clean him Edit: could it be from extrafloral nectaries? I’ve noticed the sap on the back of the leaves occurs in the same spot.

Should I be concerned? My nerve plant has this fairly new leaf that’s turned red a bit and I’m not sure if it’s because of a pest, light or watering issue
