Is anyone else lean towards orchid pots more rather than the others?! I think these are awesome especially for seeing the moisture left in the soil. Granted I do have to water a little more often due to the more irrigation slits on the side but I don’t mind I tend to my plants quite often.🤷🏻♂️

I’ve been having issues with this scindapsus for awhile, it hasn’t grown much and new leaves/shoots sometimes just turn brown and die off.
What’s up with this?

Recent big box store rescues in my entryway for quarantine! None of them looked too bad, they were just coated in dust and debris from the stores. There are some spots on the snake plant, and some on the darker plant that I’ll probably prune off.
It’s supposed to be 70° here today so I’m going to take them outside for some natural windowless sun. I’m also going to split the snake plant into a few seperate planters depending on what the roots are looking like when I get it out of the mud it’s currently in. The monstera already has some new leaves that unfurled so I think it is pretty healthy. Super excited to live and learn with some beautiful big babies :)

Hey guys, I’ve noticed the soil in my pot is getting really dry and chunky lately. I’m watering it as often as the app says but it just doesn’t sit right with me. Any advice would help 😭🙏
She has been re-potted at least one and we started to re pot it again but as we were transferring it we noticed the new pot didn’t have draining holes and put it back.

Hi all! I’ve picked up “plant caretaker” in an effort to find a new hobby.
I currently have these plants propagating as of TODAY!
- snake plant
- zz plant
- tradescantia
- pothos
- ivy
- monstera deliciosa (this one has been propagating for almost a year because I’m terrified to pot it and kill it 😂)
I currently have these plants in soil and have been for awhile:
- Jade
- ZZ
A plant I’ve had for awhile (got it from Costco last year)
- xanthosoma
My questions are:
- do my propagating plants need a grow light? They are all in indirect sunlight and have a humidifier on them 24/7
- my xanthosoma is struggling (browning and crunchy leaves (I have 1 healthy looking leaf that just unfolded about 3 weeks ago and is thriving!). The app said to increase humidity and repot so I did that today. Should I add a grow light?!
- my zz plant was just repotted today becuase it outgrew its original pot, grow light??
- my jade plant is looking a little sad and not nearly as full as it used to be. What can I do??
- I snipped my Ivy because it was in a hanging wine bottle and all of a sudden died off. So it’s in water. Should I add a grow light?
- how long should the grow lights be on for and how often?!?!
If you read this far, THANK YOU! I’m just trying to be the best plant caretaker I can be :)

My Hoya Kerri is wobbly and is starting to have some trouble standing up. I thought maybe the pot was too small but when I took it out to move it, the roots weren’t that big. What could cause this?

Name some hard to find plants that you were surprised you saw at those big stores? I want to have something to keep an eye out for! I’m new to plants and want to add new babies to my shelves, I still have space. Or plant suggestions for a semi new plant mom. Thank you.🤍🪴

Bought this Dieffenbachia off Facebook marketplace and noticed this one stem has sort of a crack in it as the lady had been supporting one of the lower less perky stems on top of it.
I’m a newbie so not sure if I can let it be or if I should cut it!
Photo of the leaf off the end of the stem for reference
Appreciate any advice!!
