Wondering in these spots on my snake plant are concerning? And it's droopiness? I only water when the soil is dry and she's near a window with partial light

Hey guys!! I got a spider plant recently and I repotted her a few nights ago and gave her a big drink with some miracle grow. Yesterday she was looking glorious and had sprouted some new growth stems for her babies. But today I came home from work and her leaves are browning and soft at the end :( I'm wondering if it's because I shouldn't have gave her plant food? I don't water her until the soil is dry so I have a hard time thinking it's overwatering?? I'm thinking maybe her new growth is making her redirect her energy to the new babies and less to her leaves?? Any advice I'll add pictures of her, her new stems and her brown tips. Much appreciated 👏 thank u

Hello fellow plant enthusiasts! I need some advice. My Thai monstera just today showed yellowing in the leaves as photographed. I checked the soil with a moisture meter and it’s showing “moist”. Can I pick your brains? I appreciate any advice. Thanks.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone could help me with my teardrop pepperomia. She was very healthy last week, but this week she has been dropping her leaves with no reason. Why? And is she ok?

I have an avocado tree that is in its nursery pot. I don’t know if fish tank water would count as liquid fertilizer. Do any of you know?

Anyone know what these little bugs are? They are tiny so could be babies. Need to know if I should kill them or leave them be. Moisture meter stick for size in second picture,if that helps at all.

My potted rhododendron bloomed wonderfully this spring and it has tons of buds on it… however, almost all of the branches are turning yellow and so are many of the leaves underneath. Is this cause for concern?

Anyone have the cure for this white powdering stuff on my dieffenbachia? Can’t get rid of it. Tried spraying neem oil on it multiple times.

Help needed! I brought her home from a walmart quite a few weeks ago, repotted her to check her roots and have been keeping her in the living room. She seems to have only been declining as of late and im not really sure what to do for her, she doesnt bloom anymore and most pf the mature leaves have yellowed. any help and advice is appreciated.

Help please!!! I have soooo many fungus gnats and don’t know what to do to get rid of them permanently. I’ve tried sticky traps and they get covered and replaced regularly and I’ve also use granules too. What can I do? Tia

Help! Having issues with my monstera that’s never given me problems in 3 years. First photo is when I first moved into this new apartment a l little over year ago — it gets bright indirect sunlight mostly in the mornings (like it did at my last place) and I’m definitely not overwatering it. I did fertilize it once which started the initial decline and I don’t think it’s fully recovered since (lost a bunch of leaves at first, but then seemed to be doing better). Second photo is today, it hasn’t pushed out any new growth except once small leaf without fenestrations and is yellowing at the tips. I just moved it to another location that gets more bright indirect sunlight throughout the day. Should I be repotting to get rid of soil it may not like?

Please help!! I just bought this cissus discolor a couple weeks ago. It was perfectly healthy when I bought it. But now probably over half the plant is either yellowing or wilting - sorry I know the pics aren’t great. Rookie mistake - but I watered it about a week after I got it & noticed there was no drainage holes after I watered it! So I quickly drilled holes at the bottom once I realized. Not sure if it’s too late if there’s anything I can do to try to save it🥹. Note it’s facing a Northeast window (more east than north). I also bought it from a super humid environment so wondering if it’s in some kind of shock from being moved. I could put it in my ikea greenhouse cabinet but it’s a bigger plant & I’m not even sure if humidity is part of the problem🤔

My poor Aloe Vera has just drooped over the past couple of weeks and I’m not sure why. It’s about 10ft from a window in a room that gets a good 5 hours of light during the day. Watered about once a month. Had it for about 2 years, and only now has this happened, any ideas? Thanks in advance

Hi all! I have had this corn plant for six or seven years and I am wondering if there’s anything I can do to help support its growth (it’s sentimental). It is still growing new leaves and flowers once or twice a year. It’s in a pot with drainage holes, but hasn’t been repotted in probably four years. Gets indirect light all day. Let me know your thoughts! Thank you.

Hi! I’ve had this string of pearls for about a month. It was thriving until about a week ago. I included a photo of it when I first got it. You can see it was full and happy. Now it’s almost completely died and I don’t know what to do. It looks like there might be some type of mold/fungus? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated because I really want to save this plant. ❤️

I brought this juniperus pro nana home in May. I put him on my porch and watered when I was told to by the app. He almost immediately started browning and now looks like the photo below. Please help! Is it the humid environment? Is it dead? First bonsai I’ve owned.

I took down Marge today for a misting and to my surprise quite a few small flies fled the pot. This is the first time this has happened. Any ideas? Thanks in advance

I’m wondering what’s going on with my parlour palm. It continuously gets browning leaves. It lives on a window sill (pictured) it gets part sun/part shade. This particular window is located under an overhanging roof, so it is more shaded but when the sun comes around in the afternoon it gets some direct sun. Does it need brighter light to correct this problem? I always check the soil before watering and don’t water unless it’s dry. I don’t see any sign of pests.
