I have several plants whose leaf tips easily turn brown. I’m wondering if a self watering pot will help with this problem. Can anyone recommend a favorite self watering pot? I am looking for a pot that is about 6 inches in diameter. TIA…🤗💚🪴

I got this peace lily sensation from steins garden center today and it looked rough so I toke it home and repotted it and it was root bound and it had some root rot so I cut the rot off and I did remove a lot of healthy roots to stimulate root growth ( about 1/3 not sure if this was the best idea) and the pot was 1 inch bigger but the soil had a hard time filling in the gaps in the new pot so I had to really push and punch the pot to get it to fall in, I’m just worried it’s going to go into shock now. What do you think?

Hi guys. I have a kalanchoe mamorta that I got from a friend. When I got it, it was in a giant terracotta pot right next to a window. I hate how terracotta looks so I put in plastic and right in a window. It was doing fine and I watered it, and all the sudden its leaves turned yellow, thinned out, because flexible and some started dropping. I repotted it in a smaller pot thinking it would prevent over watering and added rocks for drainage. I haven’t watered it in weeks and it’s still declining. Please help!

I don’t think it would be so far fetched to buy a large bird of paradise for the decor of my little girl’s Moana themed birthday party, do you? Like it needs some sort of tropical plant decor haha. And then win win right? Lol, asking for a friend 😂😬

Happy Holidays everyone. I have a question. This plant was labeled by Planta as a Yellowood Pepper Tree. At looking at photos of that kind of plant my plant looks nothing like them. I’m asking cause today was watering day and I’m so glad cause for the first time, plant is 5+ years old the leaves were drooping and yellowing and it was sooo bone dry. Planta has told me to water every 25 days this time of year and now I’m wondering if the care schedule is based on the wrong plant. Any suggestions and help will be much appreciated.

Ha! I’ve had this one for a few months now and still have no clue what to name it it’s currently tbd sooo any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I feel bad that I haven’t named it yet. 😅

So I have a quick question. It’s been awhile since I took care of plants. I transplanted all of my plants this last summer. They all now have roots coming out of the bottom of the pots. Should I repot? Went from 4” nursery pots to 6” pots.

Any tips on my polka dot plant? She started out with very pretty leaves, but then I found the tips of some leaves were turning brown, and eventually fell off… or I picked them off! What are the secrets to raising a healthy and happy polka dot plant? TIA… 🤗💚🪴 PS. Those pics are various stages of my plant as she is trying to survive. The one of her sitting on white was taken after I lopped off all of her stems, and she started regrowing. However, I’m starting to notice that a number of her leaves have those brown tips, again…???

Hi, I’ve been putting in these sticky fly traps but it’s not really doing anything.. they just keep growing. I also have been spraying her with the myst but that’s also not doing anything.. Please help, if u can suggest something affordable to kill them all off without harming my peace Lily then it would be appreciated !

Hello! I was looking at my Syngonium today and realized… I’m pretty sure it’s two different varieties. Got it from a friend about 6-7 months ago and am now realizing it doesn’t all look like the same plant. Some leaves are true to the variety I previously believed was the only one in the pot, but others are just a green with dark green. Any idea what’s going on here?

I ordered some tissue cultures and im new to them. When they arrive I plan to leave them in their little bag in my greenhouse cabinet for 2 days for them to get used to the temperature before then putting them in fluval stratum in 100% humidity. My question is if I plan to eventually put these guys in appropriate soil mixes, how can I transition them there from fluval stratum? Also, Ive seen people do 1:1 fluval stratum to perlite off the bat but Ive run out of perlite. Is JUST fluval statum ok? Do I need perlite at all whether be off the bat or to help with transitioning? I have pumice on hand btw, idk if that can substitute perlite if necessary.
