Hey y’all! My room where I keep most of my plants one sec darker, so naturally they’re getting less sunlight. I’ve been having a problem with their soil not drying out, it’ll be weeks and the soil will still be wet. It seems like most of my plants are doing fine, although some seem a little unhappy. I’m just wondering if you guys have any tips for what I should do, or should I just ignore the watering schedule and only water when the soil is dry?
Hi everyone! I’m a new plant dad and just started using the Planta app. I’m currently following its care tips and schedule for this Dieffenbachia. Do you think it might be too close to the window? I’ve already trimmed a few yellowing leaves.
Hello! New Peace Lily momma here and just wondering if her little addition on the left is normal? When I bought her it was already a sprout growing to the side but now it’s huge and drooping!
First time owning a maranta (lemon lime). I know it can be a fussy plant so really paying attention to it. It had flowered but now they died off. Do you guy recommend snipping off the dead flowers? Or should I just leave it?
Can anyone tell me what these are on my Chinese Green Leaf plant? I thought they might be flowers, I have a few on the plant, now dying off but they haven’t opened just got browner. Can I cut them off? Thanks for any help ☺️
Hello there, I’m looking for suggestions about watering without having to take each plant down and over to the sink. I know about self watering pots but does anyone have any other suggestions? I have over 200 houseplants and they’re all thriving, But I’m looking for a more time efficient way of doing things. I love doing my plant chores daily, but it takes a lot of time. What is everyone else doing? TIA! 😊
Hi there. I am looking for some suggestions on grow lights. I just got a beautiful hutch that I want to fill with plants, but don’t get much sunlight where it is placed. Any suggestions help, I have never used grow lights before so this is new to me:)
Does anyone have tips/tricks for having tropical greens indoors in the PNW? Especially my higher maintenance bonefish prayer plant! Anything helps :)
Looking for some know-how on ZZ plants 🪴 I’ve had this guy for almost a year, i haven’t seen it sprout a single new leaf. No signs of distress, but just curious for some ideas on how to make him grow!
I just don’t know what I’m doing wrong with this tomato plant. It has produced one flower yet so no tomatoes. It’s just getting taller. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Wellllll…. My Pink Fittonias proved how spoiled they are today…. Tried to give them real sun today and they hated it. Guess they told me who’s boss 🤦♀️🤷♀️ this is why they are named after who they’re named after🤣☠️
I recently got an air plant and am wondering on any tips on their care to help them thrive.
Recently moved from the valley where it was consistently warmer throughout the year. My monstera has lived its whole life (got him in 2021) there up until about two months ago when I moved closer to the OC/Long Beach area where it’s a lot cooler. He’s closer to window now than when he was in my old apartment but gets around the same amount of indirect light. Not sure what else to do now. He’s droopy and some leaves are crispy at the ends. I’ve tried following planta’s watering schedule but he’s not doing great. I have 4 other plants I moved along with him and all the others seem to be acclimating just fine. Any suggestions?
Got this Hoya from a nursery that just had all the Hoyas listed as assorted Hoya. Does anyone know what kind this is?
How should I prune those Lemon trees. Or leave them be? Is it supposed to be bush? Or tree?
Does this need to be repotted? It’s several plants in this little pot.
Any ideas on what caused these lesions in our Ficus??
My cucumber plants look a bit dead but I’m not sure how to help them
Alright people. I’m looking for any and all tips on moving plants to semihydro from what medium to use to fertilizer to which plants love it etc. my Monstera got root rot (I think I repotted it into a pot that was too large?) so I chopped and water propped but am too nervous to repot into soil and want to try my hand at semihydro. TIA!!
Hey! So I’ve had Alocasias in the past, but they always seem to die on me no matter what I do. If anyone has one could you give me some tips before I buy a new one!
