I initially was so excited about my dumb cane dieffenbachia when I first bought it.. but it’s not full and bushy like I would like. I’m kinda over it.. but how can I fix “leggy” plants?? Help!! 😥

Please help! My beautiful Hope is crying for help and I don’t know what’s wrong. I’ve had this plant for almost two years, she’s put out maybe two leaves in that time but has been dropping leaves like crazy recently and droopy. She’s in a south/west window, humidity is pretty normal in my apt, I water regularly, mist, and I’ve never seen bugs on her

My Monstera is super happy and healthy but the bottom leaves are starting to droop and are really weak. I know I’m not over or underwatering it. Does anyone have a tips or advice on what I might be doing wrong? It was perfectly fine until about 2 weeks ago

How can I help this plant? It has been struggling since the day I got it and I'm afraid it's slowly dying.

Okay new to this kind of beauty- keep this in mind 😅 Bought this bad boy about 4 months ago, and now it’s turning yellow. Been treating for spider mites with insecticidal soap once a week, haven’t really been watering because the soil has been pretty damp. Happened to another leaf but figured it was the spider mites, so I cut it off (was a smaller leaf at the bottom) What is happening?!

I have this plant that I got a while back & for some reason, the pot had molded & molded my windowsill. The mold count is already high in this apartment as it is so I figured maybe that’s what caused it. My question is, do I need to throw this pot away? If not, how do I get this stuff to completely go away. I always clean the outside of it when I refill the water but it ALWAYS comes back. I believe it’s terracotta too, I thought terracotta was supposed to be breathable?? The plant itself though is growing fine though!

Does anyone know why my money tree is getting this coloring? This is a new development.

Hard to see but I have these tiny black, slow moving, non-flying bugs on my dieffenbachia. Popped up earlier this week. I isolated it from my other plants (other plants do not have them) and sprayed a neem oil solution on it. It’s in its original nursery pot from when I bought it. My thoughts were repotting and using neem oil weekly. Thoughts? Ways of going about it?

Curling top leave on my Chinese evergreen. Still a newbie here, but not sure if this is healthy or not? Reported her a few weeks ago,

I just got this monstera deliciosa in the mail last week and am about to repot. I feel like i should cut off this yellow leaf but not sure? Everything else looks quite good

I could not keep my peperomia pepperspot alive. She’s down to one little branch and I don’t think she’ll make it. I thought I figured out what I did wrong with her and got a ruby cascade and now she’s also not doing well. She keeps shedding leaves. I have thought that maybe they were leaves that were damaged in shipping, but I feel like every time I look at her there are fewer leaves. I have not repotted her because I think that ultimately was what I did wrong with my pepperspot. I only bottom water when dry and keep the leaves dry. The indirect light is good and works well for my other peperomia but maybe that wouldn’t work for her? I have a string of turtles that is still doing extremely well so I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong with this type of peperomia?

I just noticed this in the dirt of my Chinese money plant! The plant looks healthy though. Is it mold? Please tell me it’s not spider eggs! 😂

Does anyone have an idea as to what’s wrong with my Ctenanthe? I use filtered water on her and use a grow lamp for 12 hours a day, about 4 times a week. Is it deficient in something? Getting burnt from the sun lamp? Any help appreciated.

I have a huge fungus gnat problem for the first time. I have sticky traps and just bought a mosquito dunk thing but a lot of my plants go a very long time between watering or are freshly watered before I bought it. Is it still effective if I’m only watering some of my plants with it or if it’s very staggered watering with it? Thanks so much for any help!

My fiddle leaf fig has started to lose its leaves and has this at the bottom of the leaves. What should I do?

been having a gnat problem. noticed one gnat and killed it then the next week three more popped up. so far i got some apple cider vinegar, dawn dish soap, and water which caught five of them. i still see one gnat flying around the plant. my main concern is if they’ve laid eggs in the dirt. i cant even tell, i have tried looking up images of eggs or larva but it’s hard to tell with the dirt mix that i use. any thoughts on how to fix this and prevent more gnats?
