Hey, I plants this basil that my mom bought from the grocery store. It was in a root ball to keep it fresh so I just separated a few groups. It recently started wilting a lot so I took the leaves off. Any way to save it or should I start over?

I have a pilea in an east facing window. The bottom leaves seem to be droopy. It’s planted in chunky soil and I don’t think I overwater. Can someone weigh in?

My small young begonia got powdery mildew in my classroom😭 I know it can be sensitive to neem. Any suggestions? I have a small fan ordered to hopefully improve air circulation in the future.

Any guesses on this mystery Alocasia I picked up today? I gave it a desperately needed repot

Recurring infrequent plant maintenance💚 Discovering that I’m going to need to account for little things in my plant care maintenance, like replacing top soil. My outdoor plants seemed low (I could see some roots) so I added soil for them. How often do you do this? And are there any other things I might need to do from time to time to care for my plants? Besides water, fertilizer, battle pests, repot, light check, ? Photo below of one of my outdoor hibiscus 🌺 plants that I added a bit of soil to yesterday. 💚💚💚

Do you guys think these brown dots are pests? I don’t see any on the plant anywhere, but what could cause that? Thank you!

I was repotting my alocasias, and I found so many corms in my alocasia Polly and Jacklyn!! If someone could help with how to know which ones are viable and how best to grow them, that would be great!

Dear Husband....I love you so much for watering my plants while I have been so busy. I love that you are stepping up and helping me without me asking. However, you are killing my plants. Some are so water logged that I almost have to repot them in dry soil. I have thrown away 2. And watering some with tap water is killing them. Also, I have them in certain spots for reasons. I get that you don't know, but please put them back where you found them. Also, I have insecticidal soap for a reason. If you aren't sure, just ask.. because now my thrips have moved from the initial quarantine to other plants. In the end, this is all my fault but wow....my poor collection!

How do we feel about “self-watering” pots? The kind with the rope at the bottom. Are they good, or just a gimmick? Does it just depend on the plant? Asking for a friend so share your thoughts and experiences! 🤭

Hi everyone! I’m new to the plant world as I just got my first ever batch on Friday. I have 2 key questions. Thanks so much in advance. It’s really important to me to take good care of them, but I have gotten a couple different instructions, so I’m coming here to ask for help from the plant nerds, in hopes I can become one myself someday! Attached are my plants - 9 in total. 8 outdoor on patio and 1 indoor in front of window. They were all just re-potted. Question #1: The person who sold me the plants gave me directions to water all the outdoor plants every day when it’s over 45° out. About once a week for the indoor tree. However, the app has watering periods from 2-10 days per plant. Which one is correct? Question #2: And this could tie to question 1… but how much water to put each watering? The app says to pour until water comes out of the drainage hole. However other places I see tell me to go until the first 2 inches of soil are moist. Can someone help me with how to make sure these plants have long happy lives? Additional curiousity questions below: - He said no watering under 32°, and once a week in 32-45° weather. Does that sound right? - Do they need fertilizer done at the times noted on the app? THANK YOU X1000!

The gangs all here…looking for coordinated planter pots. I plan to keep them all in these clear nursery pots (like the two on the right) easier for drainage …I’m learning
