Just got this corn plant and pothos from Lowe’s. It has spider mites and despite giving it a good shower, some of the leaves look dirty so possible thrips. How should I treat it? Trying to keep it away from my other plants as best as possible. But separately, should I report the pothos? I think both plants need the same light requirements but not sure if I can get away with the same water schedule. Any advice?
i have these 2 polka dot plants that seem to be growing well but i want to put them into one container. i have a larger pot about 5-6 inches to repot them in but i am worried because of how much the taller one leans and now it’s roots are starting to stick out of the top of the soil. i know i need to do something with these but i’m not sure what that is exactly. any help or advice is greatly appreciated! 🪴🤍
I recently notched the top of my fiddle to promote some branching— & I GOT 03 NEW GROWTH POINTS!
Morning ☀️ I was watering and caring for my plants this morning and I saw this bug near my propagated spider plant. Thankfully my sticky traps caught it, but has anyone seen one of this bug near their houseplants. Anyone know what it is? And if I should be worried?
I’ve just started getting a more “rare” collection and was wondering what everyone’s thoughts on leca was? Is it worth it or should I just spend the money on a good mixture of soils for all of them? Thanks in advance for your input!
I'm fairly new to this whole plant lady thing, and I was wondering if there's a certain "height" that plants need to be at within their pots. I have this Petra plant and I repotted it in a nice terracotta pot my dad gave me. Problem is, the plant itself lies about three inches below the top of the pot. Is this a problem? It seems to be doing just fine so far, I've had it for two months and r seems pretty happy.

I rescued this droopy, rootbound croton the day before I went on holiday, hastily repotted it, watered it, and left it for a week. Look how happy it is now!
My olive plant’s lowermost branch’s leaves have become curled and dry. I feel like the other leaves are drooping as well. I repotted it about a week ago into some fast-draining potting mix. Could this be shock from repotting? It looked fine until today, so that would be a really delayed response. Is it just thirsty? The soil was lightly moist when I repotted a week ago, so I didn’t water it until today. Not sure if olives are super dramatic like peace lilies about under watering. The other thing is our AC went out from 6 PM to 6 AM so it was about 90 degrees+ for twelve hours. But given where these guys grow in the wild, I feel like this shouldn’t be a problem.
Anyone know why my polka dot plants are growing but don’t have any of the pink color left? They look good minus the color being gone :(
I have a spider plant baby that fell victim to my cats. I saved the nub to try and save it and it was very dormant. today i decided I want the pot it’s in for something else and I realized it’s still very much alive but ?? what’s up with these roots, what does it mean, will she ever get leaves?! had the nub since may tyia
Hello! I was gifted this spider plant. Wondering when I should clip it if it needs it at all? I was told by the previous owner to trim it down but I want to be sure this is needed.
I’ve been trying to grow lavender from seeds for months and today I accidentally knocked the pots off my windowsill 😭. Not all the soil fell on the floor, so I was able to save that but most of the soil I had to throw away because it got dust and dog hair in it. Luckily no seeds have sprouted yet so no plants got damaged. My plan is to plant some new seeds and try again. However, I have no idea what soil to use! I have all purpose soil, as well as cactus and succulent soil. Any ideas on what I can add to the soil I managed to save? Or would it be better to buy a soil mix just for lavender?
Hey guys, I’d like to pick your brains. I want to downsize my collection for the winter, ideally by selling some plants. It would be nice to recoup a little money for my crazy hobby lol. Would you buy plants from someone who set up a table in your neighborhood? What kind of prices would you be willing to pay? I want to charge equivalent to what my plants would be worth at the local store, but it would be a bummer if no one wanted to buy them at that price. I also have props, cuttings, and a few plants that need some TLC which I would definitely sell at a big discount
Hiii, I just got this plant from my sister, she said it’s a tree of some sort. Any ideas on what this is?
I’ve been working on succulent propagations for months, and many of them didn’t make it, but some of these are finally ready for their own pots!
Hi, my friend gifted me this plant and I’m not sure what plant this is, or how to take care of it. Would anyone be able to help?
My satin pothos keeps on growing bare vines. Does anyone know why? I keep on cutting it back hoping it will start generating leaves with no such luck!

Hello! I recently purchased a grow light for the upcoming fall/winter months. The lights have three colour options to choose from: Blue and White, just White, and White and Red, and gives little detail on the box for what's best for what. I have some succulents under them right now and some foliage I am hoping to add under it too! What's the best setting to have it on? TIA❤️🪴
