Does anyone know what’s going on with my Rex Begonia Vine? It’s a rescue from my Sister’s house that was improving rapidly but suddenly got these spots. They are only on one of the new vines.

Anyone know what these little guys are? been wiping them away with a neem oil / water / peroxide solution for the past two months but they keep coming back. finally ordered this insect control to be used when watering, hopefully it will help. Any suggestions?

Looking for advice on how to keep my Lily alive! It’s starting to droop. Is it because of temperature? Watering? Sunlight?

Looking for some advice plant friends. A friend of mine lent me this begonia to try and save. It was in a 6 inch pot and suffering, leaves losing color and yellowing. Upon further inspection the roots were looking fine and healthy. but severely root bound. I put it in a 8 nursery pot but cut it to fit in the decorative pot they brought over, (due to lack of drainage) and I thought they would have a better shot being able to see the root system. So my friend doesn’t want to cut the leaves that are yellowing, personally I think they have to right? Idk. Looking for any, and all advice. I had to break up the root ball, so I don’t want to further stress the plant. It’s hard to see but there are two canes here.

Peace lily is growing leaves with brown spots. I have had her for years, but recently has been growing leaves with brown spots and tips. As you can see in the photo one leaf is still unfurling and has brown on the tip. Any suggestions?

Need advice, I got this cutting of a monstera roughly three weeks ago. It was very well rooted in a cup of water, I rinsed and untangled the roots, used peroxide to make sure no root rot bacteria was present, and put in my normal house plant soil mix of soil/perlite/ orchid bark. It gets plenty of indirect light, the room is humid about 60-70% most days. I use plantas watering schedule and it’s been watered twice now. It has a smaller leaf that seems to be doing okay for now. Is it repot shock, lack of fertilizer?? Anyone have any ideas.

What is this 😭 I know everyone says mealybugs but I haven’t seen any bugs and I don’t really see cotton stuff. I did have mealybugs on one plant. I treated them and then suddenly all my plants are dying and have sooty mold. Both my home and office plants. Mine at home, you can’t even see anything except that major damage.

My plant is wilting and I don’t know why. I water it once a week. It’s been slowly dying for the past month. What should I do.

Does anyone know if this works to get rid of the adult fungus gnats? I already have a product I add to the water to kill the babies in the soil, but the adults still fly around.

Any idea what could be going on with my rubber tree? It’s leaves are very small & kind of curled down. It’s been this way for over a year - still growing plenty of leaves but they look pretty odd.

I had bought this majesty palm on Home depot no even 1 months ago 😭😭 it started getting yellow tips and weird brown spots everywhere i thought it was too much sun but i got curious and check the roots it was almost all rot, i clean her up and cut all potential root rot and replant it Will it be okay? I hadn’t watered since i got her since the soil was pretty moist I also place it in a nursery pot with plenty of holes to breathe

Can someone help me with my watermelon peperomia? The trunk seems to be very weak. I just untangled it and now it’s completely falling over. Usually it is all crowded together and looks slightly droopy. The foliage looks fine to me, but the trunk is extremely weak. I guess it’s gotten “leggy” Can I fix this?

Anyone know what this little guy is? Had some pest problems recently so I’m a little paranoid. It flies if that helps with identification.

i’ve had this philodendron billietiae for over half a year now but recently it’s new leaves dried up and withered despite nothing changing in my care routine!! upon further inspection i think there’s and earthworm in the pot 😬 i’ve never kept this plant outside so i’m not sure how it got there or if it’s been there the whole time, but related to the plants symptoms or not; how can i get rid of this thing with as little contact as possible?? i know it prob won’t harm the plant, if anything it will help but i prefer to keep my room worm free haha (additional advice on the sickly plant would be appreciated aswell!)

I posted here the other day when I was pretty sure my orchid had fallen victim to fungus gnats. I set her into a clear bin with some yellow sticky traps and woke up to 3 or 4 flying around in there. I stuck some traps in my other plants as well and found my polka dot plant had one in the trap and one or two flying around her. I’ve put her into another bin away from the rest of my plants but I’m still worried the others have been infected now. What are ultimately the steps I need to take now? Should I let the plants sit until the soil has dried out completely (it’s been quite a few days since either of them have been watered), or should I take them away now and remove all the soil? I saw someone mention gnats are attracted to peat moss and miracle gro has been known to contain pests, I have peat moss added into a few of my plants along with perlite. The peat moss is not miracle gro brand but the other soil I use is. What brands would you recommend for good pest free soil? I’m a little stressed out as I’m still new to much of this and just very unsure of what to do moving forward. I’m doing my best to consider this a learning experience and I really really appreciate any help đŸ©·
