I got this for Mother's day. I really love it! Though I don't know much about it I am hoping to learn. I have other plants and a small garden with tomatoes and bell peppers.

Hi y’all! I have a spider plant that is growing beautifully (especially after a pest infection), but I’m wondering if it needs a bigger pot? I don’t want to put it in shock and hinder the growth it’s making, but the plant seems a little less supportive in the soil (like a little flimsy, especially after watering) and I noticed these little things growing. Are these stems? Roots? Is it telling me it needs more space?

Seeking grow light suggestions! I have a monstera I’m trying to move away from the window and turn around to face the inside of my place. Any recommendations on grow lights are very appreciated. I want to get one that is strong enough to promote more fenestration in future leaves, and promote a bit more upright growth. I’m looking for something that doesn’t scream grow light, ideally something that is a floor lamp-like style. Photo attached of one I found on amazon but don’t know if I should trust. Thank you for suggestions!!!

Help! Should I repot and give the littles own pot? Or just let it be?

Hello all! I am reaching out because I am a new plant mom. I am filling out each of my plants info in the app, but I’m unsure how to tell what soil is used for any of them. I have bought them second hand or through a nursery so I have no idea what was used. I also have 19 different plants at the moment… Let me know if you have any suggestions or anyway to help me, thank you!!

I was checking my Exotica today to see if she needed to be watered, and when I pulled her out of the cache pot, I noticed all of these dirt filings in the bottom of the pot. I checked for bugs, but couldn’t find anything. This is something I don’t normally see. Any ideas? TIA!

I’m really stressing about this IV. I don’t know what to do. If I’m over watering it under and watering it if it needs more sun this is my favorite favorite plant. I need any and all help please

I picked up this Janet Craig discounted from Lowes 5 days ago. It looked alright, only a couple of spots. They had it in a self watering pot. I've not watered it. I'm assuming it's blackened in the center because over water. As I'm repotting, the roots seem fine. Is there anything else I can do? Is there any hope for it??

Planta says my syngonium is a medium drinker, however, I have heard they like to dry out a bit. Can anyone give me a percentage of dryness in which this plant will optimally thrive? TIA!

I just got my first pothos! Any tips?

This is what happens when you get a new air plant on a whim…she ends up sitting in kitchen wear cause there is nothing else available 😅 😂

Is it time to repot my aloe plant? I think she may be out growing her home 🙃

So I recently got this plant as a gift and I’ve named her Snakey (thinking she was a snake plant but is really a spider plant… 🤦🏼‍♀️😂 But I love her all the same). She seems to be falling to one side of her pot consistently. Is this normal or should I be doing anything to support to grow upright? Thanks!

I shared this a few weeks ago, just before flowering. So much flowering!! What should I plan to do when the flowers die off? She started as 2 unhealthy stalks and has been growing great this last year. Should I moss pole her roots?

Succulent Help! I just inherited these little guys and have never tackled succulents before. How often should I water and how much? Any advice is appreciated. TIA.

Anyone have this type of planter? I repotted my plant into this larger pot before I realized this is a self watering planter. It’s a pain to repot and I think I can tip out extra water…but I don’t really know how it works. I can’t detach the bottom reservoir…

Any tips of helping with flowering, haven’t seen any blooms lately

I’m thinking about getting a peace lily. I hear they tend to be SOOO dramatic so we’ll probably be besties. Anyway, I’ve heard of semi-hydro-ing them. How do you do that?? Take the plant out and put in water for the rest of forever? Any tips would be great!!

Can we talk about repotting? I’m pretty sure this lovely needs to be repotted and I’m just dreading it. I’m thinking she’s been in this pot about 5 years (?) and is thriving. But also water runs through it. It is a glazed ceramic pot and I’m afraid it’s going to be really hard to do this and keep the pot intact. Any advice?

How do you measure plant size when entering details in Planta? Some plants can easily be measured by how tall it is, but take a pothos for example; mine aren’t tall, but long and lanky.
