Does anyone use tropical plant miracle grow fertilizer? Or is it best to stick with an organic fertilizer

Hi all! I got these 2 Jade plants off marketplace for $10 the other day. I’ve never owned any of these guys before so any tips and tricks would be much appreciated! They are currently potted in a decorative pot, which I usually like to plant in a nursery pot. Should I repot them or just leave them be? One seems to be in pretty good soil but the one with the red tinge to the leaves has rock solid soil and quite damp. They are living outside, undercover but it is winter here at the moment, are they pretty cold tolerant or should I bring them in? (Temps ranging from 5 degrees to -5 degrees C at night) Thank you!

Does anyone have advice on what to do with the browning at the bottom of my birds of paradise? I’m not sure what is causing it. It’s on the bottom of all 3 stems

I believe this is an anthurium pheasant’s tail. I found it for 1/2 off at a nursery. It’s been in quarantine for the last week since bringing it home. Tomorrow is watering day and I’m not sure if you can tell in this photo, but the roots aren’t all the way in the soil. So I’m wondering if I should just repot tomorrow instead? Thoughts?

Hey! Does anyone know what kind of Philodendron this is? I’ve tried doing some research, but end up with mixed answers. Thanks!

Zz plant. I know this isn’t a great photo but just wanted to share. I had this in its 4 inch nursery pot for almost a year maybe with very little growth. Then I repotted it to bigger like at least six inch pot. Then I watched some videos and started to worry cause I heard they like to be snug. Then I saw people here posting how much theirs is growing and I really worried. I put it in a space with more light and didn’t water it. And guess what? Now it’s growing 4 new sprouts!!

This is my white Anne fittonia and I have to water her every 2-3 days and if I’m a few hours late watering her she wilts over til I water her.. is this normal? Do I need a watering system for her?

Hi! My partner is having me trim fiddly and I’ve never propagated fiddle leaf trimmings before. I’m wondering if I could propagate the whole section I want to cut (ie if there are like 10 leaves and I remove multiple leaves from the bottom and put into water or soil) or if I should cut the large section into segments (one or two leaves per cutting with 2-3 bottom leaves removed from each segment)? Thanks so much!

Hello Everyone, I just watered this rubber plant twice and a lot of the water ran out. I moved the dirt around and the soil is not even wet in some areas. I made sure first pour was not at edges. Why does this happen? Thank you in advance!

I have a small space right above the patio door in my apartment(east facing). What are some small and easy maintenance plants for this space? I was thinking pothos but I’m worried it willl stick to the walls.

Hello! I have had this money plant for about 1.5-2 years now and it has grown this long stalk in the middle. the lower leaves all dropped. is this normal? How should i support the plant’s continued growth?

I took this plant from work. It’s a philodendron Xanadu. It’s doing really good, but I noticed some of these older leaves. Have this orange speckled stuff. I don’t know if it was a pest at one point. I think it’s also in too big of a pot.There’s a lot of new growth. Any suggestions? Or is it doing just fine maybe cut off the older leaves, I am thinking about downsizing it. I don’t know. Let me know please on that.

Hi all, I’m still new to this whole plant parent game, so I’m sorry if this is a silly question! This is my double-flowered Flaming Katy which I bought a couple of months ago. She was in full bloom when I got her, but I checked today and it seems like she’s definitely done flowering - she looks like me after a rough night! So, what do I need to do now to get her looking healthy again? Do I cut off the wilted flowers or just leave them as is? And if so, is it better to cut with scissors/shears or just pull them off by hand?

Is this the right way to use this self watering thing? Never done this before! Getting ready to go on a trip and I’ll be gone for 8 days. Don’t want my peace lily to … peace out. It was full abt 2hrs ago when I installed it. Top soil feels good and there’s nothing in the drip tray.

I repotted one of my philo plants today. I Had just watered it yesterday, so the dirt and roots were damp. I repotted it into dry soil, of course. Everything I have read says that you should water the plant after putting it into new soil, etc. Since I just watered it yesterday and the roots were not dry. Should I still water it as Planta advises or should I wait?
