Okay, so sad to write this. Our plant Whitney was soooooo much alive when we got her and now she’s sad asf lol
At first, she didn’t have a drain and some of you mentioned how she’s difficult and needs a drainage pot. So we just switched her over and put her closer to light. But man, by the hour she’s getting said and bottom leaves start turning!
Any advice?
Her soil currently is wet.
Like wow. Her before and after within 2 weeks and her leaves. Then said to water her until water comes out the bottom but dang. It’s not leaving the pot lol ugh. I feel so bad for her.
Any advice lol

I just got this plant from the sale section, it says it’s a dracaena ray of sunshine 🌞 I’m not sure if I should repot this/ just put more soil on top??
The roots are growing wild!

Any suggestions for if your bamboo in water, water always smells?? I change it once a week and have river rocks in to keep the bamboo upright? Is there something I should add to my water?

Hi! I need help again. I got this Ficus Tineke on clearance today for under $10. Any tips to help it? Also it has these bugs…I assume I should remove all that soil, clean it up and repot?

My autumn flame has such a hard time during the winter (warm but rainy here) 😭 This is the second time I've had to cut her down to the soil. She lives outside, on a covered window ledge. It rained nonstop last week, and the strong winds that were going on must have blown a lot of rain past the overhang. By the weekend she had this funky fungus (?) going on. I think next year I'll bring her indoors for the season 😔 Hope to see her thriving again soon...

Good lord, I never knew begonia’s were sooooo temperamental! Granted this is my first one and I got spoiled with amazing pothos’ but still lol. Like I was doing it a FAVOR by repotting it out of non breathable soggy soil into a better mix for its species and then it goes and yellows some leaves and gets all these crunchy spots. Even with its own PERSONAL humidifier right next to it, bathing it in rainforest mist. I mean if I treated myself like this plant, I’d be a thriving queen. Okay, lol, rant over. But like did anyone ever have this temperamental of begonias while they’re acclimating? Photo of what this princess looked like before it threw a fit, I’m hoping to have a comeback story for this one to share later lol.

Does anyone know what’s in this or know how it works? These are ice packs used to deliver my medicine, which must stay refrigerated. I get that nitrogen promotes leaf growth, so conceptually I get it…but not really. I’ve used it on outside plants and it seemed to make no difference 🤷♀️. Thoughts on inside plants??

I am repotting my plants on the south facing front porch. I live in SW FL
My fiddle fig has roots coming out of the bottom of the pot. I got this or at Target and it has an attached tray for water, but I want to change it to one I can water till it runs out of the bottom and when finished put it back on the porch in a drip tray. Do I need to go up in diameter or height of the planter? TIA!

This is my sister‘s birds nest fern, and she sent me some photos and said “HELP!” She also said this one leaf was normal when it popped out, and she thinks something is eating it. I told her to get a magnifying glass and flashlight, but she’s not seeing anything, at this point. She’s not a plant person, and really wants her birds nest fern to get better. I don’t have any magic, but maybe some of you out there can tell her what is wrong with her plant? TIA!

What is wrong with my Croton? I haven’t noticed these red spots before, and wondered if it might be edema? I was told that Crotons like to be well watered, but I have never watered it before, unless it showed normal on my moisture meter. TIA!

This should be the plant for year of the snake.

Hey guys! I’m looking for a plant suggestion right now. I’m looking for something I can start growing now for spring from seeds but I don’t what I should start with because this is my first year trying. I am also looking for a house plant which doesn’t need much sunlight. If you guys could give suggestions please do!

Hello everyone. I’m new to plants so any recommendations anyone can give me i’d be happy to take! I bought this plant about a week ago and it was doing very well. I watered it once (the day it was bought) and i haven’t again since i’ve read they need a water about every 15 days… so i’ve been worried to water again and overwater it. As i’m so new to being a plant mom i’m unsure of what the problem would be and i’d be interested to hear feedback from you. :)

Hey all learning question!
I repotted my philo billie because I noticed that there were roots on top of the soil and the top roots were drying out before the bottom roots. So we repotted from 8” to 10” I just want someone to look at this root system and tell me if this looks okay? I have read root trot is brown and these are kind of brown but not mushy, some of them are fuzzy as well! Thanks all for educating me
