I’ve had this cactus plant for almost 8 years and it just recently started developing these black (mold-looking) spots. They are in an almost straight line going up the plant. Maybe 6 or 7 spots. I have had him in the same pot for over 5 years and it doesn’t have drainage.. which I’m aware is probably not the smartest with a cactus, but since he had always been growing and having no issues whatsoever, I didn’t see as too much of a problem. Am I going to lose this plant? Do I just need to replant him in a draining planter? THANKS!

Something’s wrong with my spearmint. It’s leaves have dropped down and I don’t know what is wrong. It is in a kitchen window and I have not repotted it. Please help!

Anyone have any thoughts on what’s happening with this maranta? Some of the leaves have this shriveled and almost eaten look starting at the stem and working inward toward the tip. I started treating with Fungicide 3 (which also treats many insects). First application 1 week ago, second application just now, after the pics were taken. It’s a pretty healthy plant otherwise. It’s currently flowering like crazy. It’s in a north west corner, a few feet from north and west windows so it gets bright indirect light. Direct sun never touches it. It’s on a pebble tray. No AC/heat draft. It’s not over or under watered, in my opinion. I used to mist it every few days but stopped a week ago when I suspected fungus, to prevent spread. I’m at a loss. The environment seems pretty ideal and I can’t see any visible pests.

I left my monstera with my parents while I spend 2 weeks at work. when I came back, my mother told me that she thought it was too dark where I left my plant, and put it in direct sunlight for the entire time I was gone, as well as watering it every day. Definitely not the instructions I left for her, but she was only trying to help 😭 Is there any way to fix this?

Hi all, I planted a jasmine in my garden 3/4 weeks ago. The leaves started coming through paler green then yellow/brownish. Possibly overwatered at the beginning so have slowed that down. Any ideas what is wrong and how to save it please? Tia x

Please help, I don’t know what’s happened to my gerbera Daisy. Isn’t it too early to go dormant? 😭

Hi I’ve been collecting a plethora of Pothos over the last couple of years but I have one I’m really struggling with - it’s a satin Pothos - bought from a supermarket not a plant specialist and it just won’t grow. It has slowly lost all of its vines but 1 - which has 3 leaves - it’s not dead but its also not doing much of anything. Any new growth it had last year had black spots. I have repotted, it’s not root bound, it gets regular watering and fertilising and as I say it’s not dead because it hasn’t gone black like the other vines did. I’m completely stumped - I’ve managed to propagate from it when one of the vines was dying by putting a healthy portion in water and that one is growing fine but I don’t have it anymore. The original one is another story completely. Any words of wisdom greatly appreciated! (Also posted in Pothos group)

I’m very new to gardening, and got a basil plant for my window. In just a few days it has completely wilted! I have a new pot to move it to so it will have some more space, but what is wrong with it? Am I watering too much? Or is it not getting enough sun? Help!

Hey y’all! So ive had this elephant ears for a while now but all of a sudden some of the leaves are turning brown and yellowish. Even on a new leaf that hasn’t even blossomed yet! Idk what’s happening. It doesn’t look like it has any bugs, it’s in my window, and I water it around every four days if needed. Please tell me any suggestions on how to save it!!

Does anyone know what this white stuff is in my potting soil? I know this plant needs to be repotted so maybe it doesn’t have enough airflow and this is fungus? Please let me know if you have any ideas! They are white and irregular shaped, and only towards the bottom half of the soil. I don’t think it’s perlite. Tysmm

There is a brown spot on my orchid. Also some of the flowers have a tiny hole in them. Am I doing something wrong? Should I do anything to fix it? I pruned the plant that is in the same pot because it also had brown ends. It doesn’t really get sun, is that the problem? The rest of it looks pretty healthy though.

Hey plant peeps… Does this look like an issue? And if so, should I just snip the leaf?

This gal is still growing like a weed but some leaves lost their dark pigment. Should I be concerned? It gets about 6 hours of direct sunlight (through gaps other plants leaves).

My Chinese Evergreen ‘Silver Bay’ has had yellow, droopy leaves for a while now and I can’t seem to figure out how to fix it! I tried watering less, I tried more, and I’ve put it in the sunniest place possible and nothing is seeming to work. Does anyone have any ideas on how to help?

What is the best way to get rid of thrips? I feel like whenever I notice them it’s always too late. I have been rubbing 1 part rubbing alcohol 7 parts water on the leaves and stems with q tips. I also use neem oil periodically. TIA!

What’s the easiest/best way to get rid of the small gnats? I’ve done cinnamon and that’s not enough alone. Pics of my new girls for attention
