Ohh noo 😖!!! My snake plant has some white spots on the soil… what do I do? Will cinnamon help? Is this because the soil is too wet? There’s new leaves coming out and there’s no rot on the actual plant but I want to make sure Im not overwatering (I follow water schedule from Planta).

My Peace Lily, Robert Plant, constantly looks sad. He was in too big a pot and probably had root rot, so I repotted to a smaller pot with better drainage. The soil stays moist for awhile so I moved him closer to the window for more light. I don’t know if I should leave him longer, repot into a clay pot for more circulation (he’s in plastic right now) or if he needs a fan on him. He was really good until I put him in the bad pot.

Hi I’m having some issues with my Chinese Money Plant. It has small holes in the leaves, but I’ve checked, and there are no bugs. Also, the edges of the leaves on my Dracaena Trifasciata are turning yellow. Does anyone know what might be happening with my plants? Thank you!

I’ve had this baby rubber plant for over a year and she’s been healthy and easy. The leaves feel healthy but I noticed all this flakey brown stuff underneath half the leaves. Help!

Goodafternoon Planta community, Just planted some rudbeckias and a few shastas , They were on sale from seasonal at Home Depot, this is already week 1. I had pruned what I could to save them, but it’s starting discoloration to the root day by day. Am I overwatering or they are just too sick? I did a cow manure and topping soil mixture to help.

Look at this harassment! The internet says “could be under watering or overwatering”. Super. How to tell without digging out the roots which are 15” deep into the soil?

New to caring for plants what could be wrong with this plant? Did I water too much or does it need to be repotted?

I have had this plant for about 5 months and it keeps getting brown spots on the leaves what am I doing wrong? This is my second house plant ever I have also repotted it once.

I’ve had this plant since the spring and every time it puts out a new leaf, another leaf dies. This has happened at least three times since April. What am I doing wrong?

Not sure what I’m doing wrong with this plant whether I’m over/under watering or what. The leaves tend to die and fall off trailing up the stem. I cut and propagated once and it’s still doing the same thing. I have majority of the stem pinned down to make it look more full and less viney.

I’ve inherited this insulin plant from my mom she’s kept it I the backyard in a shaded area for 5 year’s and is now about 5 feet tall and actually has a flower. My plan is to repot and possibly cut down or even propagate to have the plant more lush. I need some expertise to carefully do this. Any tips ????

Can someone tell me what might be going on with my Chinese evergreen? The roots are fine and it hasn’t been repotted. Whenever I water it doesn’t perk back up….

Hey! My tomato plant has a few tomatoes but the stems and leaves are not going well at all. The past few weeks the leaves have turned yellow and a take them off every time but now it’s gotten to the point where there are so many of the yellow leaves. The stems have also just recently become brown and speckled. Any idea on what it is and what I should do? I thought it was overwatered so I haven’t been watering it unless it light rains and I have been giving it nutrients, but I don’t know what else to do. Please let me know what I should do.

I got this flamingo lily for my birthday a few weeks ago and placed it in Planta’s recommended spot in my house. I just noticed the flower on the right today; is this because it’s getting too much sun?
