What is happening to my lucky bamboo?? I’ve never seen a whole stalk start turning yellow from the bottom up. I’ve been watering it as Planta has directed.

I have white spots all over my roses, just started this morning. No, they don’t wipe off. 😆 The Planta diagnostics says ‘snails’ I don’t see any snails or other pests. Any ideas?

Getting ready to repot for the first time, tips and moral support welcome! I'm about to repot my Chinese money plant (pilea), elephant bush and two other succulents. Should I fertilize when I'm repotting? Or does the fresh soil already have enough nutrients?

I purchased my very first calathea a few weeks ago. It was doing very well until I noticed it had thrips (I’m pretty sure it had them when I bought the plant). I ended up killing the calathea by trying to get rid of the thrips. I was just wondering where the best place to get a new calathea would be. Are there any good online places to get one?

Ordered these monstera adansonii on Etsy, didn’t recieve any tips. I placed these cuttings in water for now, is that okay? Or should I plant them in soil, they do have roots

What does Planta consider part sun? I have a single east facing window in the room my plants are in that recieves a good few hours of direct light in the morning and less in the afternoon/evening, and based on what Planta had told me, most of my plants need to be within a foot or two to be getting proper light. Even my succulent (as shown in the pics) is placed in the window and Planta says its not getting enough. Is this correct? Could there be something I’m doing wrong?

Does anyone think this is too leggy for a Blood Leaf plant? I had it in my SE-facing window, but I’m not sure it was getting enough light. It also leans strongly toward the sun. I rotate every day. Seems healthy otherwise. I don’t really know anything about it tbh. I just thought it looked cool with a cool name.

Ok this is random, but in theory could you cut off healthy roots from a plant, and it be ok? Would anything happen to the plant? Also, if you can do this, could you grow a new plant just from the roots, or does it not work like that? Just a random question that popped into my head :)

Didn’t this app have a light meter? I can’t find it lol

Hello! So my Zz plant is pushing out two baby stalks and it’s time to water, it hasn’t had any fertilizer yet since I got it a few months ago, should I skip it so as to not shock the babies or should I not worry?
