Hi all! I am brand spankin new to all things plants so I truly have zero idea what I’m doing but I’m determined to do my best with my new babies!
I got this fiddle from my local farmers market and it came in a pot without drainage holes, no nursery pot inside. Is this typical when buying a fiddle? Everything I’ve read has said drainage is a must for these so I was surprised they didn’t have any in it. Does it matter if I just drill holes into this pot or is it better to repot it? Since I don’t know when it was last watered and re-potted how long do you typically wait to do both of these when you purchase a new plant?
Also, she’s on my porch which is east facing. I have her in a corner where the light isn’t too direct and rotate every so often. Pretty much all fiddles I’ve seen people have inside, but I don’t really have a good spot by a window for her in my place. Is this okay? I live in San Diego so it’s really never too hot, humid or dry.
Thank you!

I think my seersucker plant is far to gone to save. I repotted it in better potting soil and put it in a smaller pot. But I don’t think it’s coming back 🥲

My mini monstera popped out such a small and non-fenestrated leaf :( I know now it obviously needs more light but dang for some reason it has just been a tough go for me with this plant!

Should my rubber plant be moved to a bigger pot? Hes starting to lean so I’m thinking he needs a new home. If so, about how big a pot should I get?

Why did those new leaves on this bird of paradise plant come out broken like this? ☹️

Any thoughts on whether I should transfer my Calathea Orbifola to soil? It constantly has rot and the leaves seem to be dying. Please help!!

Hello!
So is it okay that my Swiss cheese monstera is pushing water out and into its roots?
Ik that means I gave it too much water but it will be fine right?
Cus it’s like a natural thing… I think?

I’m looking to calm my anxiety about transitioning many of my plants to pon today 🙈 Anyone well-versed in it and can assure me I didn’t just kill all my plants in changing over? I’m focusing mostly on calatheas/marantas, begonia, ficcus (maybe?), and philodendrons. Any tips?

Hello, some of my plants are due for fertilization but the soil is still moist, should I skip until next time?🤍🪴

Also, just an update on this split leaf prop from back in January — if you were here for this — I had no idea what I was doing😂 I chopped the top 2 inches off with the leaves and put that in water, which now has beautiful roots. I ended up keeping the cutting of the trunk too and now I have ✨this✨
Lets just say he grew parts in all the right places, and has quite the hairdo🧍🏻♂️

I’m curious, with plants like the little Swiss. Does each limb only grow one leaf? I know the new leaf can then grow another, but if that one doesn’t make it is that the end of the limb? Will this limb ever grow another leaf?

Waiting 2 weeks to acclimate before repotting the cemented soil (hard ac)😩 any tip and tricks are appreciate to encourage fast growth
