Help! I got this monstera a month ago, it already had a yellowing leave on bottom and some sun burns… I repotted, and it got worse so I’ve decided to look at the root and sure enough the were rotting, most of them had to go, I’ve tried repotting again in tropical soil, but again it has very little roots, should I wait to see if it grows more roots or chop it up for propagation?? I’m at a loss.
I watered my dragon tree around 3 days ago, mixed with a little bit of liquid fertiliser for the first time, and the soil has grown a lot of mould since :( I’m not sure if this is to be expected, or if there’s something I’ve done wrong. Does this warrant a change in soil? Is there anything I should do at this stage at all? I would really appreciate some help. Thank you!
Does anyone know why this is happening to my monstera standleyana?
Hi! I have mealy bugs for the first time I’ve got at least 4 plants effected :( is there any tips on how to get rid I’ve ordered some neem oil bug spray.
These spider mites have my schismatoglottis Shelly turned upside down. She went from looking like a millionaire to looking down right homeless, broke and abandoned. Is there anything I can do to save her? Or should I just let her go. Help please 🙏🙏🙏😭😭😭 Check her out...
I got my orchid on clearance because it was in bad shape, I have been growing it hydroponically but I can’t tell if it’s doing well. The roots are a bit soggy and stink but the leaves look okay I think.
Does anyone know why some of my pothos n’ joys leaves are turning yellow. It is also happening with my satin pothos but not as bad. They get watered once the soil is dry (about once a week) and it is 1.5 feet from a grow light and they get light from a nearby window for about 3-6 hours a day. I recently repotted about a month ago and they had pretty small roots. Both of the plants have started to grow new leaves but my satin pothos is growing like a weed and has a new leaf every day. Is there any reason this is happening? Thank you in advance.
Why is my Monstera's little leaves turning yellow? I rescued this plant from a big box store 2 weeks ago. I changed the soil and sprayed it for bugs. This is not where I originally keep her. Any ideas?
Not a happy plant. ☹️ I've already had to cut off a half dozen dead leaves. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
my first time owning this plant haven’t watered in a week almost, what’s wrong?:(
Noticed these black spots and marks all over my white bird of paradise leaves one of the leaves the forms a line of dots down the center of the front and back of the leaf is this fungal, scale, or over-watering? I chopped it already , I'm going to throw it under a grow light this winter, keep fertilizing, and keep it growing this winter hopefully it doesn't take forever to grow back 🥴
The leaves getting soft and one or two have become this, I watered three days ago when I got it (it’s new and my first plant) maybe I didn’t water it enough??
My Jade Plant is growing really slow and its soil always appears to be dry and crumbly. I’ve repotted it with moisture protectant soil but it still seems to dry out like crazy. It grows very slowly but is having new tiny leaves. I’m afraid of overwatering it. Any advice on how to make it thrive?
What is happening with my Pearls & Jade? I keep pruning off the browning leaves, and she's getting thin. Is it a fungus? She hangs in front of a tinted North facing window and I water when the top half of the soil is dry. I use a moisture meter. Only the leaves at the crown browns. TIA
Why my pothos has shiny sap on its leaves? I checked the pests but I could’t find anything wrong? Should I worry about it or is it normal?
My cat is the pest in this case 😩 She keeps jumping in my fiddle leaf fig tree pot to play in and lay in the dirt. I raised it nearly a foot off the ground, but she can still jump in. She knocked the whole thing down last night. The only thing I could think of that won’t hurt her is pet safe insect sticky traps. I lined the pot with them as a barrier to keep her out. Any tips on keeping cats out of your plants? I’d hate to have to put it outside, but I may have to.
I’ve grown this Chinese money plant from literally nothing! It would never grow past 3 leaves before one snapped off! I was so proud of the progress but it’s giving me troubles again, the stems keep snapping off recently, the new growth is shrivelled and/or brown and the old leaves are curling. Planta suggested I’m both over watering and under watering ?? Any suggestions if anyone has experienced this? What’s the fix? 🫣
I got this peace lily a few weeks ago and it was doing really well. Since I’ve had it its leaves have been starting to turn yellow/brown and the flowers are dying. I water it when it starts to wilt which is maybe once a week. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong :( (It’s also an indoor plant)
Hi! Ive had this fiddle leaf for about 2 years, I now realize how lucky I am to have kept it alive this long lol. Recently he’s been losing bottom leaves and just not looking too happy. He gets pretty indirect light (the picture was taken at night) but he hasn’t gotten a new leaf in a while. What can I do to help this poor guy?
SOS. I am losing my mind over this fittonia. The leaves have been constantly dry and curling, so I tried repotting into three separate pots, but now this morning it’s completely drooping. I am at a loss of what I am doing wrong. Does anyone have any thoughts/advice? I am a beginner plant parent and would greatly appreciate any support 😢
