Please help! My monstera delicious is not doing too good, yellow and soft brown spots and edges. The 2 new leafs have not hardened well and also alot of browning on most leaves (as you can see i chopped bits). I'd bought it end of October and a month ago noticed more brown spots. The draining pot is a good size for the root balls (3 plants) and the soil seems very loose... i'd treated it for pests with a mixture and showered a few times and i cant see any 🤷‍♀️ thanks guys!

Just noticed this on my coffee plant today, what is it from? I water when the top inch or so of soil is dry, so its most likely still damp farther down. Its under a grow light. I've been fertilizing once a month with superthrive. The humidity usually stays around 40% and i mist.

I just got this beautiful golden crocodile and I’m new to issues and troubleshooting them. Can someone advise what I should do? I did bottom water it the other day so it may be overwatering- but how do I fix?

I got this albo syngonium almost 2 weeks ago and all of the leaves seem to be turning yellow. At first I thought it was just shocked from the transition of a green house to my house, but it doesn’t seem to be improving. I gave it some stuff to help its roots with transition shock and I have a grow light on it 12 hrs a day. I have already had to cut off a leaf and I’m getting worried. Even the new leaf seems to be struggling. Any recommendations?

Found dark brown blotches on my plants new leaf. I saw a little bit more on another growing leaf. It looks like fungal infection but I want to get a second opinion. How do I minimize the damage?

My rubber tree plant is occasionally dropping leaves that look totally healthy. In addition it looks like little roots are coming up above the soil. I water it once per week with distilled water and humidify for 2 hours once per week, it has doubled in height but is also spread out alot from when I first purchased. Planta said 48% probability it’s a watering problem but not sure. Please anyone that can help. Thanks

Hi All, My Autograph tree (Clusia rosea Princess) has really started to droop and fall over and is looking rather unhealthy. Do I need to prune it? Or is it not getting enough light possibly? (It was in a half nook, so didn’t get much direct sunlight but the room is bright enough). Thanks for your help! Harry

I love it when companies use foam padding instead of actual insulation 😢😭😱

My Calathea Beauty Star 😭 Fairly sure I’m not overwatering. Under a grow light at 25% for 8 hours a day. I mist with filtered water from the refrigerator after its room temperature. I have water conditioner coming today so I can start using that for my watering and misting since I live in a hard water area. Any ideas? She was perfect a month ago when I got her.

Help! I repotted this Peru Monstera a bit ago after noticing she was quite root bound. She has been living happily in this pot for about two weeks, and she is even putting out 3-4 new leaves. However, yesterday, I noticed blackening leaves!! I keep near-ish to a window and also near-ish to a grow light since it’s winter. She’s not terribly close to her light source because I read they like part shade. The blackened leaves are all on the side farthest from the light. I’m thinking it can’t be root rot because I’ve only watered her once since I repotted and the roots were great at that time. I’ve also moved her closer to the humidifier and I haven’t seen any signs of pests. I love this plant 😢

Anyone have any care tips for dracaena Florida beauty? Mine keeps having leaves that turn brown and I don't know why. I let it just barely dry out before I water and its under a grow light.

Got these about a month ago, this is what it looked like originally, I repotted and around two weeks ago noticed this originally they both looked slightly worse than the one on the right then I watered them then they got a little better. They are still stretchy and squishy and flat. What do I do😭
