Hello! I’m new to this app and I would love to hear any advice for these plants. I have a pothos, spider plant, 2 succulents and a luffa plant that will soon be moved outside. I would love to hear if there is anything I should know about these plants. Thank you!

    Somethings I recommend is researching about the plants. Also do not get those pots with the awful attached drainage. It does not drain properly and it sucks. I also recommend getting Plant Parent. It has better auto diagnose and other features too. You can get other plant apps so that you can combine each other knowledge together to take care of your plants the best. I also recommend a shine spray/cleaner. I love to spray my non-succulent plants with it and wipe their leaves, It makes them look so shiny and pretty.

      If there is root rot (black squishy roots that come off easily) spray it with 3% hydrogen peroxide, and if wanted put it in a clear pot to check for further root rot. Oh yeah and if you have Mealy bugs, spray them with 91% Isoprol alcohol, check the roots and spray them with a 50/50 mixture of 91% Isoprol alcohol and water and give it new dirt. Here is a good soil mixture the next attached image. Keep in mind you don’t have to do it but it’s amazing for most plants ^^ (Ignore everything below the soil mixture it’s for a certain plant)

    Hi👋 Welcome to planta!❤️ There’s a great community here! Succulents are all I can comment on from those plants. Just make sure they are getting plenty of sun, not misting them, and only water when the leaves get wrinkly or pliable. Otherwise, leave the soil dry between waterings to prevent root rot. They need a well draining soil and like Leaf mentioned, no watering trays underneath. They need to be watered until the water runs out the bottom drainage holes and then allowed to dry out until the next watering.
