Okay plant community help a girl out here, my calathea is driving me a little crazy (thatâs an understatement) I got her as a gift when I got into grad school and after being lush and vibrant for two years she became the biggest drama queen. Please help! Is it time to let her go?
My new plant. New leaves coming out and looked big and healthy, then when washing up the leaves I saw what looks like chew holes on a couple of leaves. What is it?!
Hello guys I need some help please, today I realized these woodish looking marks/damage on my White Princess Philodendron mother plant, just wondering what the cause may be and how I can avoid it from happening anymore.. think it may be stress from being strapped to the wooden stick. Removing the ties and mounting it on a sphagnum moss pole. Update, after putting in a pot with a moss pole these marks have continued to get worse, now going up to the petioles on the leaves even up to the top.. Someone please tell me how to fix this.. Iâd need be im totally willing to chop it up and make propagations and then retry, I just donât want to fully loose my White Princess mother plant ); I do find it weird though, cause if that was pest damage I would assume it would be in shock and not pushing out new leaves.? It is currently unfurling a new leaf.
Hi! I am dealing with an unpleasant problem with fungus gnats spreading through my plants, and throughout my house. They have become quite a nuisance, constantly reproducing and spreading everywhere. Iâm hoping to completely eliminate them for good. I would greatly appreciate any tips on the most effective methods to get rid of fungus gnats permanently. Thank you! đżđ
What am I doing wrong?!? This is from my grandpas funeral, so really trying. I have many other plants but this one just seems to dislike me. Keeps getting crunchy brown spots, gets full light, and watered per apps recommendations. The leaves are mushy, and never firm after watering. Roots look fantastic (checked for rot) so I really canât figure it out. Iâve taken some cuttings incase I canât save this but itâs about 4gt tall and braided. Itâs beautiful, Iâd like to find a way to save it.
I propagated this baby spider plant into this jar a few months back and it was totally healthy and doing great, but over the last few weeks and or months itâs took 10 for the worst and I donât know whatâs wrong with it. Can somebody help please because I donât know what to do.đȘŽđžđż PS, there was another spider plant baby that I propagated to watch at the same time and itâs currently thriving in a different location but they have the same amount of light. Why might this be?
Hi all! Iâve had this Spathiphyllum Domino for about a year and a half living in water. The past few months itâs been looking very sad and droopy. I have many plants that live in water (a few peace lilly types too) and this is the only one that is struggling. I generally just top up the water and occasionally Iâll fully clean them out. I use foliage focus to fertilise. Most of the roots have rotted off this guy but itâs still trying to put out new leaves. Iâve tried giving it a smaller jar, using distilled water, giving it a diluted hydrogen peroxide soak. Iâve tried giving more light and less light and nothing seems to perk it up. Itâs been droopy like this for months now. Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong? I really like this little guy and would like to see it happy again. (Last photo is how it did look before) Thank you!!

Hello fellow plant lovers. Iâm about ready to give up here. My Silver satin exotica has been doing this browning of the edges for quite some time now, and I do not understand why. Iâve been told everything from over to under watering. Can you all help me figure out why this keeps happening please, and what to do to stop it? Iâm ready to toss it, because itâs killing confidence of plant care. Thanks đ
Hi all. Iâm really confused here. Iâve had my FLF for a few years, and repotted it about 2-3 weeks ago. Now all of the sudden Iâm noticing these spots, lack of new growth, and very crispy edges. Itâs always been absolutely beautiful, so Iâm quite upset đą Can anyone help me out if this is a pest? I was thinking the dreaded thrips, but can not find any evidence of them. Please help me figure this out đ
Iâm about to plant trauma dump. Yall, I think Iâm about to throw the whole tree away! This plant is stressing me out!! Every other day he has an issue. Like BRO, what now!?! Can someone explain to me what is wrong with him? What are these spots thatâs starting to pop up? I have cut, prune, repot with a proper mixture of soil, cut the band off the bottom, I have fed, loved and sung to this plant. He is 2 shakes away from me giving him to my CAT! I know Iâm being dramatic (like him) and he isnât in the worse shape but Iâm starting to feel like we arenât meant to be. đ© every time I feel like we are making progressâŠ.BAM - he hits me with a new challenge. Why canât he just grow and be pretty?!

Some of my plants have signs of mealy bugs. No idea how they got in since i live in an 8th floor apartment and I havenât brought in a new plant since October2025. But after I repotted my 3 weeks ago dessert roses I noticed they had that cobwebby stuff on the leaves. I got the alcohol and wiped the leaves. Have a spray with neem oil. But I keep seeing the little buggers every other day. I repotted my snake plant at the same time and Iâm worried I cross contaminated someone. Any advice? How long and how regularly should I be checking and spraying before I give up an send my plants to the graveyard?
