Saw this on tik tok and had to remake it. It looks much better in person and it’s an amazing addition to my balcony garden.

This happened last year too when the leaves edges were turning black and eventually the leaves fell of getting more and more black. I repotted it and watered less so it stopped and I cut off the black parts from what survived. The leaves started getting black again this year and this one just fell. :( please help! I can try watering less again but not sure what else I can do😭

anyone with a grow light, i need your opinion! i have lower lighting in my room and i’ve been thinking of getting a grow light. there a little bit on the pricey side and i’m wondering if it’s worth it. if so any specific brands that you’ve like would be helpful too.

I highly recommend a spray bottle like this one. I’ve seen at Sally’s Beauty supply. I bought mine on Amazon. The spray is very fine and easy in the hands. Great for misting plants or your hair. LOL

Hi, we bought these two beautiful plants (placed on the floor, right side of the photo). Just being honest, I bought them because they LOOKED beautiful. I just have no clue how to make sure I don’t kill them. So here I am and hopped on to Planta. Showing you a picture of where it’s at. The sun comes in from the left side sliding door but it doesn’t directly hit the plants. Will the cool wind (I live in jersey city) from the sliding door coming in, affect the plant? Should I always keep the sliding door closed? Any suggestions and tips will help. I don’t want to kill them LOL they’re beautiful

Feeding these interesting species of plants can be difficult. A normal plants’ food would consist of WATER, C02, and LIGHT. These things are very beneficial to ALL plants, but the Venus’ Flytrap has another great recourse. These biting plants loathe nutrient-rich soil and water, mainly because they can “OVER-FERTILIZE” or “BURN” your Venus’ Flytrap’s roots. Because of this occurring, Venus’ Flytraps need to get their nutrients from somewhere… but where? Not where, but WHAT? What do they get their protein and nutrients from? BUGS! Yes, that’s right, bugs! How do your traps get those bugs, you ask? Well, each trap, or “MOUTH” has six little “TRIGGER HAIRS” as we call them, 3 on each side. When a bug flies or crawls into the Venus’ Flytrap’s mouth, they must strike two hairs, or one, twice quick. When or if they do, the trap will SNAP! If the trap doesn’t open in 30 minutes, DO NOT WORRY! It will take almost a week in order for them to open back up. Please do not stick your finger in the trap, because it wastes valuable energy. EACH “MOUTH” CAN ONLY EAT 4 TIMES BEFORE IT DIES, so triggering a “FALSE ALARM” will over time, kill the single trap. Now, onto how to feed your Venus’ Flytrap dead bugs. I do not recommend feeding your plant dead bugs, as it is a difficult process. But many do not like handling live bugs, so it is an option. Drop the dead bug into the trap, and then touch two of the hairs inside quickly. For a minute or two after the trap closes, lightly massage the trap. (Another reason I do not like feeding my traps dead bugs is because of this. Over time, this can bruise the leaves.) Come back every 1 minute for the next 10 and for 30 seconds, massage the leaves. If your trap opens up after or within a day, the digestion has been unsuccessful. You may have to try again, or just get used to feeding your trap live bugs. Feeding is only necessary if your Venus’ Flytrap is indoors, as it can catch it’s own outdoors. Hope you have luck with your existing or future Venus’ Flytrap!

Hello, I have bought a Ficus, my first plant that is hard to take care of. Any tips? I have pruned the dead leaves, and stems, cleaned off the dead leaves in the soil. Repotted it with new soil, and got rid of some the old soil. When I bought it at the hardware store, it was in a little rough shape, but still has some healthy growth. They don’t really take care of the indoor plants. I will add a photo later when I have the chance to. I’ve already checked for spider mites, and fungus gnats. One concern is a few yellow spots here and there on the leaves, that look slightly pitted. Any idea what that means? Help and advice would be greatly appreciated! :)

Y’all I’m horrible at growing Alocasia unless I completely start it from a corm l, but I’m okay with it since I live watching the growing process. I’ve been trying to find corms for sale online but I can’t find any other than Polly, frydek, or black velvet (which I already have). I’m especially looking for jacklyn, reticulata, and brancifolia. Any help is appreciated 💚

Do you use grow lights? I have realized that since my plants are all babies, they need more than just the partial sun they are getting in my house. How long do you leave the grow lights on with partial sun? I don’t want to leave the lights on all day while I am at work. So I put them on in the morning and evening. On weekends I leave them on all day. I have no idea if this is still too little light or possibly too much. What type of routine do you use with your grow lights?

I bought a meter to measure how damp my plants are before I water them again. Do I have to be careful not to damage the roots? How deep does the meter go?

Hi guys! I haven’t gotten a new plant in a bit, and I don’t know what plant to get. I was thinking a Fiddle Leaf Fig, but I have cats inside, and I am not sure if I can give it exactly what it needs outside. Any ideas?
