How do I get this to stop happening? I’ve pest controlled this plant three times already, at this point I just keep it separate from the rest. Whatever it is I hate seeing it on the top of this plant specifically. Please help 🥹

Help! What's happening to my child 😭 ?? It was fine like a week ago. Then just recently I notice dark kinda mushy parts showing up on some of the leaves and they are curled a bit inward on some of them. I checked the roots and they look alright to me. The soil is moist slightly from about a week ago from watering. It was kinda dry before that I think. Is this trauma from sudden watering?? I have recently sprayed a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, dawn dish soap, neem oil and a few drops of higher grade orange essential oil added to the mix cuz neem oil smells like ass. Is this something that could have caused this so fast? The plant sits in a window that gets non direct light. Please help ;_;

What do I spray on my flowers to keep bugs off of them? I tested out regular bug spray on some weeds, and they died almost immediately.

Lots of brown leaves coming and I’m not sure if it’s too hot or what’s happening with it but it doesn’t seem healthy right now. Any advice or tips?

I would love some help on this palm.. got it like a month & a half ago. Why does it start turning yellow? I’m scared to over water it so does anyone have a routine that works? I probably watered it twice since I got it 😬It sits under a 11w grow light for 12 hours daily.

I have a bunch of these plants but none of the others are doing this. The leaves are turning yellow and falling off. With my other elephant bushes the leaves will shrivel up and then fall off if it's too dry, but these leaves are really plump so I'm not sure what's happening??

Hi! I’ve been regularly watering my Christmas cactus as it starts to dry out, and it was doing really well until about two weeks ago. It’s under a grow light for eight hours a day, and the soil is currently damp, but it’s been droopy and hasn’t perked up no matter what I’ve done. Dr. Planta says it’s underwatered, which is what I thought at first too, but extra water hasn’t helped, and neither has cutting back on the water. I wanted to see if anyone else had better ideas, as my other cactus (red pot) is doing really well. Thanks in advance!

Hey all I have a purple inch plant and recently it lost most of its vines. I trimmed the end of each vine and have them in water hoping to propagate them again. Does anyone have an explanation for why this might have happened?

Hi All, First post! I’m in Zone 6B, Buffalo, and this past summer was my first experience with cucumber beetles and they ruined my entire cucumber section in the raised bed. My question is should I clean out the entire raised bed (8’x4’) of all of the dirt to get the overwintering beetle eggs out or is there something I can do to the soil to kill the eggs before spring that won’t hurt my vegetables next summer.

This Hoya is about 4 years old and while it looks healthy, some of the leaves have turned white. They are still firm and healthy. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

I noticed some fungus gnats in my snake plant. I put some river rocks of the top and have sprayed with neem oil for the past couple of days. I will let it dry out completely before I water. Should this help get rid of the gnats?

Can purple mums get root rot? The info tag that came with it said that they need to be kept moist.

I’ve had this Coleus in this vase since August, and everything seemed to be going just fine up until a week ago when I had to pluck one of the bottom most leaves off because it had turned brown and dry. This week, I had to take another bottom leaf out for the same reason. I notice the same thing happening to this current leaf too, around the edges. Anyone know what could be causing this? I keep the plant in a north facing window, it does get cold at night in this area because of fall temps recently. I change the water every week.

Hi guys, I just got this money tree and these spots have shown up and the other side has some droopy sad looking leaves. Any advice?

Does anyone know what this yellowing could be? There are little black spots on it but they don’t appear to be moving. The plant always dries out between watering as well.
