This weekend’s plant haul! I got a philodendron micans, a string of pearls, a stromanthe tricolor, and a cactus that I have yet to identify :) Sorry for the bad lighting 🙃

Back in May I ended up being gone almost a whole month and couldn’t water my Brazilian philodendron. It used to be so bright and beautiful and has just shriveled away over the last year. It had been in an 8” pot because it was fairly big, and now all that’s left is a tiny sprout. I’ve never repotted a plant backwards (going from a bigger pot to smaller one). People have mentioned root rot but I can’t tell what that looks like. I moved this sprout from the 8” to the 6” pot today. Can anyone tell me if this was the right move? Can you tell if there was root rot from before? I’ve had philodendrons and pothos now for 2 years but still feel like a beginner. Thanks!!

I have an heirloom philodendron that I recently repotted. She’d been in terra cotta for years and I switched her into a fancier pot, but she’s seemed stressed and droopy in comparison to thriving for so long. Do I switch back to terra cotta? Or is something else to blame?
Hiya!
Instead of putting a plant in the Graveyard and not being able to bring it back into the live plant list…I created a special “room” category called “Hospice”. That way if it miraculously recovers…I can move it back into the list of living plants.

Hi. New here. Any tips with using the light meter on this app? Is it best to measure at the brightest part of the day from where the plant is located or at the dimmest? Or somewhere in the middle? Thank you.

Hi! I’ve had this arrow head plant for about a year and a half. Not long after I got her and repotted she started growing what seemed like another plant out of a node. I didn’t pay much mind to it until today when I checked on her and the plant had completely separated and the node piece fell out of the pot! I would like to propagate the severed piece, but is it possible? Should I water or soil propagate? Thanks! 😁

Hello! Does it look like my orchid is getting too little light, based on the leaf color? I have a western facing window but the orchid hangs just around the corner (see included diagram, yellow being window and green dot being where plant hands, ~ 3 feet from window)

She loves it after I moved her and stretched her roots out for her!

FRIDAY! Any fun plant plans for the weekend? 😃🪴 I don’t have any specific except from figuring out if this actually is a plant or an 🦖, 👽 or something else?

Soil Recycling Does anyone have experience with recycling/reusing their indoor planting soil? I’ve read some articles online about it but would love to hear from people who’ve actually done it. Also, even if you don’t recycle your indoor soil, what do you do with it? Right now I just add it to the outside garden but it feels wasteful. Any ideas?

I’m having trouble getting an ID on this one. It was only labeled foliage in the store, and the app keeps saying golden pothos. I don’t think that’s it.

anyone know what this is? not the pothos but the plant in the middle? it was a baby off a mother plant in dallas i ripped the baby out of the ground. i’ve had it for a year and it hasn’t done much and i have a very green thumb. i’m hoping identifying it will help me care better for it.

I bought a few carnivorous plants recently. I have small pots with a Venus fly trap, pitcher plant, and trumpet pitcher plant. I’m about to move them outside for the Spring/Summer and read that squirrels like to pick at them, especially the trumpet pitchers. Does anyone have any links to a decent looking protection idea for them. I have some mesh boxes, but that would keep out the insects. I could build a chicken wire device, but I was hoping to find some kind of nicer looking system. All I’ve found are larger boxes. They’re going to be on a railing, so something that is long and skinny would be better. Also, any idea what type of trumpet pitcher that is? It’s pure green, and I’ve only been able to call it an “assorted trumpet pitcher” in the app. Haven’t been able to better ID it yet.
