does anyone know what is wrong with my peperomia? i repotted her two days ago and she was doing great and all of a sudden, the stem went limp at one point and now she’s all sad and bent. the leaves feel fine and the stem only did this in one place, it’s not mushy all over

What do we think is happening with my philodendron?? I got her at the end of last month. Completely dry when I got her, so I watered once, and fertilized 8 days later when the soil was pretty dry again. Now, the soil is damp and she’s gone from beautiful to curly. Do we think it’s too much water/fertilizer or too much airflow?

How to get rid of spider mites? All of my plants have them 😖 I’m thinking of using a hydrogen peroxide solution but don’t know the right way to make it and don’t want to damage my plants

Anyone ever successfully rid their plant(s) of spider mites? My ponytail palm looks like it likely has spider mites. It sat too close to another plant that had them a while back, so I isolated it just in case and I just started to see some thin, delicate webs. We’ve generally just thrown away our plants that we see that on, but I really like this plant. My current thoughts are neem oil & humidity, but that’s about it.

Heyyyy! So I have had this guy for about 6 months, he was doing perfectly fine till October hit. He was in my window getting sunlight during the day but at night I would move him to a side table so he didn’t get cold in the window. But sadly 2 weeks ago he started looking like this and I’m not sure what I can do to help him. Does anyone know what might be wrong with him and how I can fix him?

Can I still save this rosemary? Or is it gone? I am not sure what went wrong, I just repotted it in a bigger pot and better suited soil mix.

Hi everyone! I just bought this majesty palm and noticed it had some thick white webs. There aren’t a ton and they are in the middle of the leaf, not near the stem. At first I thought it was spider mites, but there’s nothing in them or any other signs of a pest. The plant is otherwise in really good shape so I’m stumped

Is this from too low humidity? I see no pests. And it’s only this one and my baby rubber plant that are crumbly like this
