My nerve plant is doing wonderful except for this one piece I pulled out, noticed there were tiny worms, I couldn’t get a picture of them due to them being so small. Is this normal? Never seen them before in any of my other plants. Still looks like it’s got good roots. What do y’all think?

Could the droopiness be a result of overwatering?

Help! What is this spot on my snake plant from?? Is it going to spread? Should I cut it off, spray with fungicide? I know they get brown scaring but the black spots inside is what concerns me.

Hi there, I’m helping my co-worker revive his bamboo plant. Last picture shows what it looked like when I first got it- all yellow leaves, stalks, etc. I’ve since removed all the yellow leaves, took it out of the original pot and saw that all the roots were orange and kindda smelly. I removed all the roots, kept the green stems and then I removed all the remaining yellow leaves around. I separated the stems, cleaned the rocks in came in and put in a new jar with clean water. Is there anything else that I can do to make sure I can revive this poor baby? 🎋 Appreciate any help or insights, thank you!!

Does anyone know why the tips of my leaves are drying out on this Calathea? What could I do different? I am following the Planta schedule exactly.

Does anyone know what is wrong with this dracaena song of India? I noticed that multiple leaves started to die and get crispy on the end, and now its leaves are yellowing. The new growth on the top fell off, so it is not growing at all! Anyone have any idea. I also recently repotted it since the old pot was too small and had no drainage holes.

HELP! My boyfriend handed off this poor baby to me to see if I could bring it back to life. He believes it’s a Mother of Thousands. It seems to have some green and some aerial roots towards the top. The bottom of the stem looks brownish but not completely dead? Is there any way for me to save her? Thank you!

Newbie plant Mom here. Maybe a ridiculous question? I have a thrip infested alocasia that I have been treating/ battling for about 2 years now. My first few months using this app I’ve done a few different things & it’s doing better - and is currently outside for summer. In the meantime the planter stand I have sits empty inside- no plants anywhere near it. Should I do anything to this planter to ensure the that thrips aren’t able to hang out awaiting its return when the weather turns cooler & it comes back inside? If I have to scrap the planter I will - I don’t want to sacrifice any other plants. Thrips are evil and the bane of my existence - they are so hard to get rid of! Thanks for any thoughts or experiences with this.
