I got this lemon balm plant for free because it needs a little extra TLC. There are some brown spots on some leaves and I'm not sure it's suppose to be so vine-like. Any advice on care would be appreciated!

Hi! I’m a beginner and this is my beautiful baby Monstera. One of the leaves recently turned yellow, and I’m not sure what to do. I did repot it into a much bigger container not long ago, and I think I might’ve overwatered it so once I noticed the yellowing, I poured some water out and started using a humidifier. Lately, I haven’t been home as much, so it hasn’t been getting as much sunlight as usual. I just ordered some fresh soil and plant food, but in the meantime
 should I cut off the yellow leaf or try to save it? And if I can save it, how do I go about it?đŸŒ±đŸȘŽđŸ€đŸ«¶đŸŒ

Hi everyone, I got this lucky bamboo a couple months ago and it’s been doing my pretty well. But the yellow-pale part worries me because it has black spots. The roots are looking great and it’s had this pale branch since I got it, it hasn’t grown but idk if it’s bad or not. Any recs?

Hi new here so going to be asking questions about my plants that I can’t find answers online! Any help is appreciated! I believe this is a snake plant, and I moved it from direct sunlight to filtered since the leaves were scorching but it hasn’t really grown for the last month or so, should I be worried?

I’ve had this orchid for a while and killed it with overwatering even though I was using wood chip “soil”. I’m pretty sure it’s a goner but it’s been like this for over 3 months, is there any way to save it? The leaves not dying for that long gives me hope. I change the water every 3 weeks or so but add more plus hydrogen peroxide for oxygen

Found this and a spider in the planter when watering. Is this a spider mite? My plant just 2 inch, how should I do pest control without killing my plant?

I have a plant (2 technically) infested with fungus gnats. IT IS SOOOOO ANNOYING!!!! I put tape that I folded over all around the side of the pot. Do you think this will work instead of little traps that are specifically made for it? If not, what do you guys recommend? I’m pretty sure the common denominator of which plants have them are the ones I repotted so I’m thinking the soil was probably badđŸ˜đŸ€ŠđŸ»â€â™€ïž HELP 😂 Also, the pot that has the gnats is a fairly big pot and has a layer of rocks at the bottom that I was trying to help use for extra drainage, but maybe this is also a problem? But even after chopping off her eye, could you not 4 feet long roots she had to be in this big of a pot. (See photo below) The other plant that has it in a separate room that I repotted with the same house plant soil has a tiny amount of rocks in the bottom of it as well. SEND HELP

I’ve propagated this turtle vine and am seeing one brown spot on each leaf, and a few leaves on the other propagation also have one. It only gets a few hours of direct sun so I doubt it’s getting scorched. Could it be a fungus or something?

Question! Hey, I’m super new to the plant world and I have a question. I have a philodendron and I repotted it to a pot with holes and ever since I’ve notified right round the center that the soil seems to sit lower. Im wondering if I need to build the soil up to level with the rest of the soil or not. Would love any insight! Hopefully these pics give you an idea, it was hard to capture on my phone

I got this maybe a month ago, second time with one. Didn’t realize the first time their high humidity needs until it was too late. And now this. What do I do? Or am I paranoid?

Hi everyone, I hope you can help me with my Shefflera. The ends of the leaves are turning yellow. I have it under a grow light, I water when it's about 3/4 dry, I repotted about five months ago. There are a few roots coming out of the bottom of the pot already, but not filling the pot, which is clear so I can check on the roots. Any help would be much appreciated.TIA.

Pretty worried about my Jasmine! She has brown stems and drooping flowers. Do you think she’s under watered? I’ve started to water her every day but I worry that I’m not doing enough water with each pour. Let me know what you think

Help... what is this? My searches suggest maybe spider mite? It's only on 1 plant. Has never spread. Should have dealt with it prior but just got the app to seek advice.

Hi! So I thought my money tree was thriving because it has been producing all sorts of new growth constantly, but when I scanned it today with the PictureThis app, it said my plant needs attention? I don’t have a membership on that app, and I don’t like the plant doctor function on here, so I can’t use those to see what needs attention. Is there something wrong with my money tree?
