I have brought a lot of my plants in because of the really cold nights already. Also we had a tropical storm and a couple took a beating. Well now that they are inside the soil isn't drying fast enough and they are getting fungus. What can I do to prevent it.
Hey everyone, Short long story: I bought this plant and it started immediately to have problems. She had root rot, I’ve cleaned it and changed all the soil. Then I’ve seen that she had pests (as she started to curl the leaves) and I’ve treated her and cleaned the leaves regularly. I assume that she had stress as she isn’t growing at all. The new leaf stopped her grow (she was growing already dried). Now she is in this condition for about 2 weeks and nothing changes. What should I do?
Any advice on what’s going on with this bird’s nest fern? Sometimes the leaves look crispy but the soil’s still moist. Some of the holes may be left over from when it used to be on a lower shelf (cats went nom) a little over a year ago. Thanks in advance!
I have a satin pothos that is generally in good health, but lots of leaves have brown edges or ends, even if they’re brand new. She also isn’t super full and the leaves curl slightly in even when freshly watered. I notice the soil stays “wet” (not “moist” or “dry”) according to my plant water meter for weeks. It’s been 17 days since my last water and she is still “wet” or high end of “moist”. I bought new soil that is specifically for pothos and planned to repot. Do I need to wait for soil to dry out first, and do I water her right away after repotting? I’m not sure what will shock her and she’s my first plant so I wanna try not to kill her.
Hey, so I found this weird yellow stuff at the base of my spider plant. What is it? I’m freaking out. HELP!
Anybody knows what these are???? I was fixing the lights on my monstera and just seen this on my hand!!!!
Hello. I need help understanding what is going on with my Alocasia Polly. Some things go note: - I have checked thoroughly for pest and I don’t believe this is a pest issue. I also spray and treat all of my plants for pest as well as wipe down the leaves - I have it under a grow light because that is the best lighting for it in my house - I have a water meter so I will usually check it before I water it. Could this be bacteria or a fungal infection? How should I treat? Any help is appreciated
How do I fix it ?
How do I fix it or it’s already dead?
My Monstera Thai Constellation hasn't been doing too well since I repotted it. I water it when the soil is completly dried out. I don't know whats wrong. Does anyone have any ideas?
I have a peace lily that wasn't in the best health when I got it. I have had it for a couple months now. It is beginning to perk up, stand taller, and has even bloomed twice!! But as of late, the tips of some of the leaves are turning brown. I'm thinking it's probably time for a new pot, but I'm not positive. Any suggestions?
Help! I’ve had this ficus for 4-5 years now and it’s been thriving in my care, I’ve had it out this summer reported beginning of august and it’s been doing great! Towards the end of sept I moved it inside and it’s began browning the ends of its leaves I chopped off the bottom leaves and the browning but it keeps coming back😭! Any solutions or answers to this problem are greatly appreciated!!! (The top leaves are fine and it’s been putting out new growth)
My prayer plant has had her leaves curled up for several weeks now, is she okay? Doesn’t seem to be over or under watered.
Anyone know what's up with my fiddle leaf fig? rest of the plant looks good except for this leaf ... 😬😬😬
What is happening? The leaves feel soft and weak and they are discolored.
My mini orchid’s petals have fallen entirely off and I don’t know what to do? Is this normal? Picture below
My mini Esther ivy is not having a good time. I’ve been watering based on Planta recommendations and misting every few days… but it didn’t take long before over half of her branches went dry and there were so many falling dry leaves. I had to clip all of the dead branches which is why it looks so bare. Also I often used this particular area of the pot (pictured) to test the soil dampness with my fingers, but it seems like this area of the pot has lost the most vegetation. I don’t think I’m over watering her because the leaves are drying. Is it a watering problem? Am I doing something wrong? Is this just seasonal? Thank you!
so i got this plant a couple months ago, and for some reason everytime new leaves come out the bottom ones become yellow and die off. i got it when it only had about 2 leaves so the “old” leaves aren’t even that old and i just wanna see if anyone knows what the problem could be? i made sure not to over/underwater it and checked the roots. no root rot at all. it needs water now bc it’s a little droopy but now i’m scared to water it too :( i’d appreciate any help!
Some leaves have a strange yellow color in some areas. Not sure what is happening 😢
Any idea what the issue is/any advice on how to fix this? She’s a coral vine getting direct sunlight for around 5 hours and indirect sunlight for a couple hours. I have been following plantas fertilizer and watering schedule (except when the moisture meter says otherwise). I originally thought it was too much direct sunlight but the vine in the back that doesn’t get direct sunlight has the same issue.
