Okay my monkey tail was thriving. And now it’s getting dark and skinny towards the root. Idk what happened. The only change I can think of was I starting making spray from eggshells and vinegar and spraying that so that’s the only thing I can think of. But I feel so sad bc it was growing so rapidly and now it looks like it might be a goner. Anything I can do to save this guy? Also do you think the spray would’ve caused this is something else. I’ve been watering according to what the app has been telling me.

Any tips on helping her leaves size up and on thickening the trunk?
I tried posting on the Succulents board but it wouldn't let me.

My friend gifted me this plant for Christmas, but I have no idea what it is or how to propogate it. What should I do?

Anyone know what kind of plant this is? The plant identifier on here is saying baby rubber plant but it doesn’t look or feel like a typical rubber plant.
I should have asked at the nursery where I got it from, maybe I’ll go back one day and see, but it didn’t have any label on it.

Fairly new peace lily parent here! Does anyone know what this white, dust-like thing is covering my soil? It fully appeared overnight, so I’m unsure what’s happening with it… anyone able to help me identify this? I had this before repotting quite some time ago and it went away after a while, but I’d like to know if it’s harmful or not. Thanks!

Anybody else improvising their Christmas tree this year? 🤪
Next year I gotta get a longer string of lights to wrap one of my ficus so I can actually hang ornaments too! lol

First winter as a plant parent, so my questions are a bit subjective seeing as I have several different types of plants. What are the most common problems you (those who live in areas that get COLD) encounter during winter?
I can’t tell if signs on my plants are normal. How much leaf drop is concerning? Why is my lucky bamboo slowly yellowing from the top no matter what I do? Are leaves growing in small because of the temperature? Can ANY of my plants survive in my window light alone?? Because it’s been super dark lately! Which plants do you guys have to just leave mostly-alone now or else you’ll go crazy watching every tiny thing?
Help and general advice appreciated. Thank you for coming to my TedTantrum.

I have a few tropical plants that all like to be misted every couple days, I’m wondering if anyone uses humidifiers instead? Would that be easier to turn one on for a bit? If so what’s the best kind? Thanks for any advice!

I found what I believe is a little Ruby Ficus today at my local Lowe’s. It was a clearance plant, so I brought it home, cleaned it up and repotted in more appropriate soil without gnats. It put me back only $7 and I’m really liking it. 😁

I moved her in this room for the holiday season....I think she likes it!
This is ONE PLANT. Not a braided trunk (the other 2 parts died years ago when I didn't give it enough light). I am afraid to try and prop it!

How does everyone keep their homes non-foggy from humidifiers?
My apartment is foggy I know because I’m using tap water. I’ve been using tap water that has sat out over 24 hours first. I was using distilled water but it is not do-able to buy 15+ gallons of distilled water each week and haul that up my 3rd floor apartment..,, 🙁
Does anyone have suggestions? Maybe a water filter for my tap?

Attempting to get it together with my plant care, the app recommends liquid fertilizer:
What do I use? Thank you!

What is happening here!?! This room is fairly chilly so I’m in awe that she’s even growing! I haven’t touched her since I put her in here ~2 weeks ago

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for something I can put under my plant shelves to catch dirt? I thought about using one of those plastic shoe trays but my shelving is 3ft long and any tray I find online is really expensive.

Hello! My red nerve plant apparently wants to give up on life all of the sudden. It has been doing really well up until about 2 weeks ago. The leaves got really soft and wrinkled up i figured it needed some water and extra light since it hasnt been getting as much with the winter and all. So i watered her and put her under a light for the past week and some leaves have come back but as you can see the rest are dead lol. I checked the roots and dont see any rot. Any ideas what i could do to bring some life back into her?

Happy Friday yall! Im a newish plant dad and have a Frangiani that is suddenly losing leaves. It’s been sprouting for months now and has been stable. I moved it to a brighter lit room last week but now it’s losing its 3rd and 4th leaves. Do I move it back? Any ideas to diagnose are appreciated!
