Hi :)
I Hope you are having a great day. I just noticed my pothos n joy has mushrooms growing on it. Besides the fact that they are unpleasant to look at, I wonder if they are toxic/dangerous in any way. Should I get rid of the plant or what do you recommend I do to get rid of the mushrooms?
Thank you so much in advance! Really appreciate it.

Hi, I got this Orchid a few weeks ago even though I know they are hard to keep alive because I like how they look so much. All the beautiful flowers fell off at the top and all new growth stopped please help with any suggestions or comments. I would be very grateful for any advice.

Help!! I found this white bug inside my Tradescantia plant and I have no idea what it is. It was a pretty big size and I just smashed it with my spray bottle. Does anyone know what it is?? My plant is inside a nursery pot that was inside a decorative pot. Sorry this is the only picture I got of the bug. It was whiteish with antennas.

is the browning of these stems normal?
also would you recommend cutting back the aerial roots?

This is my roommate’s plant, I never owned a plant and I want to save this thing it’s too cool looking. The tips of the leaves are turning brown and the bottom ones are straight up dead. What should I do?

My banana tree condition is worsening. Dr plant told me the problem was overwatering and lack of light. I am following the app’s watering schedule and added growth lights. But it’s getting worse. Any ideas?

Heya! Found this white mark, it’s chalky and you can scratch it away and there’s nothing underneath it, could it be stagnant water or powdery mildew?

My fiscus audrey has been growing like crazy, but is also getting brown tips and then dropping the leaves. Is this normal with new growth or is there an underlying issue?

Is this Scale?
I’ve never seen scale in person before, and I don’t know what else this could be..
I’ve had this Mint Adansonii for a few months, under a grow light 12 hours a day. Watered when the pot feels light, maybe once a week, fertilized every other watering.
From a reputable grower who never has pests, and no other plants where this was kept show any signs of pests/ damage.

I’ve had this prince orange philodendron for about 3 weeks now, and one of the leaves now looks like this. The others don’t, and I haven’t seen anything like it before. It looks like part of the leave is soaked, but it’s not. Any ideas what’s going on with this leaf? What can I do?

Can someone please explain to me why all the new growth on my money tree is looking like this? I haven’t repotted so I’m not sure what the root system looks like. I had to remove 2 stems when I bought it because they were mushy and rotting. I keep the soil moist and this is still happening

My mini orchid has had several leaves turn yellow and whither. I have two others that are doing fine and all 3 are under grow lights. This is the third leaf that has turned yellow. What is wrong?

I got this Stromanthe Triostar 6 days ago delivered from Amazon. It looked fine when I first got it. But yesterday I noticed the leaves are starting to curl and there’s a light brown spot starting on the side of one of the leaves. I have it under a grow light, the soil is still a little damp from when I first watered it. Is this happening to the leaves because it’s adjusting to the new environment or stressed from the shipping? Or am I doing something wrong, like not enough light or something?
The first picture is when I first got it, and the second picture is what it looks like now.
