Hi everyone! I just bought an aglaonema from the grocery store and the plant seems to be doing well but the soil situation is sketchy. Do you all have a preferred soil mix for aglaonemas?
Hey there! I have a couple root related questions. My orchid(first picture) seems to have lots of healthy leaves (I have had her for about a year) but she hasn’t gained super stable roots into her pot, I think the pot is very deep. Every time a root comes to the surface it doesn’t look healthy either. For my snake plant I’m wondering if it’s root bound and I should repot or if he is doing fine and I don’t need go change anything. Thanks in advance!
Y’all! I think I found a mealy bug creeping around my philodendron! It wasn’t ON it but near enough. It had spider mites in late spring. I’m wondering if the extreme heat is making it more susceptible to pests… Should I bring it inside for a while? The a/c runs all day, as it is 96o in the shade around here. Obviously not under a vent and I should mention I don’t have great lighting in my house at all. Any suggestions? EDIT: I just found this praying mantis in there. That’s probably a good thing, right? Will they eat mealy bugs?
Watering question…I have an indoor money tree and was wondering do I check the top 2 inches of soil to determine if it needs water or go off moisture meter that is down by the roots?
Strawberry shake question..Planta says “normal” humidity. Other sources say “high” humidity..in your experience which is correct??
Look at my angel wing begonia! It grew a new leaf! I’m so happy I haven’t killed it!!
Is this normal for a zz? Little background: I saved it from Walmart. It had been overwatered and started to spot. Thanks in advance!
Made my first moss poles but waiting for the back of the moss pole to come in to modify and helps hold moisture to moss pole thinking of running string through upper middle of moss pole to wick the water through the pole💭🤔
Hello, I am trying to propagate my wandering Jew plant in water. I haven’t seen any roots and they have been in water for a few weeks now. I have them cut down to manageable vines and the bottom leaves were taken off to prevent rot and their are plenty of nodes but they don’t seem to want to root. Any advice? Should I try to get them to root in soil instead of water? Thanks in advance!
Any advice on how to help the corms from my alocasia root and grow? Recently just repotted my alocasia, I got it least year and repotted it and it produce five corms. I currently have it in a soil mix that has potting soil and peat moss. Thanks in advance!
Plant shelf is being very photogenic today🤩
I have a sweet potato vine plant. There are a few different things I’ve noticed. The first pic is some white crystal like structure on a couple of the leaves. The second is brown specks all over many leaves. The last is some bugs I found. Would appreciate if someone could tell me about any and all of these.
Just bought my first pothos from Trader Joe’s. Can anyone tell me whats wrong with the leaves? All those browning spots with holes.
Two of my stems for my elephant ear plant just don’t want to stand I don’t know what to do 😭
Hello! I am really trying to take care of my plants this go round… Planta says that my patio (Part sun) is too dark for one of my plants. I live in an apartment and really don’t have anywhere else it can go with more sun unfortunately. Can I put a grow light on it and keep it outside? Will that help it get the light it needs? Thanks for any advice
Anyone got some good recommendations for an indoor plant that will grow well in a room that doesn’t get much sunlight?
What is your biggest plant ick?
I am new plant mom and I got this Chinese ever green crystal bay plant back in April. The first pic where it’s nice and green is when I first got it and this is her now. Can someone tell me why it has lost its color and is droopy? She sits by a window with shades. Any help is appreciated!
Redecorated again lol! Hopefully the light is enough for everyone ☺️ Also some recent pics 🌱
