Any tips/advice for fertilizing plants using a self watering rope? I’m new to fertilizing my house plants, but am going to give it a try per the app’s instructions. The first plant I’m to fertilize is my fiddly fig that is self-watered. It’s fiddly and I’m nervous! Do I add the fertilizer to the self-watering reservoir or top water it? TIA!!
I received these cuttings on Friday from a jade plant and pencil cactus. I’ve let them callous over- what’s the best way to get them to root?

Hello, I’m new here. I just bought this beautiful planter. I am trying to get ideas of what plant to buy that doesn’t need that much light. Any suggestions? TIA
Hi all! Looking for a little inspiration for my trandescantia. I had her on a trellis but she overgrew it and it couldn’t stand her weight 😂 pic 1 is before detangling her. Pic 2 is where we landed in a new pot after she lost some stems in the process. I basically just put all the vines on top of each other so my cat didn’t eat her 🙃 Wondering what creative things other people have done to display their trandescantia?
Hello Planta community! New gardener here. Last fall I created my first garden. It’s all perennials and ornamental grasses in the ‘Naturalistic Style’. I’m wondering if I should cut all these plants down before spring like I would if they were established. They’ve only been in the ground since early October and are very small. Figured I’d start here for guidance before searching each individual plant. My plants include: Anise Hyssop, Amsonia Hubrichtii, Amsonia Blue Ice, Aster Eastern Star, Calamagrostis Acutiflora, Deschampsia Cespitosa, Echinacea Purpuria, Rattlesnake Master, Festuca Glauca Elijah Blue, Allium Millenium, Little Blue Stem, Hakenochloa Grass, Little Spire Russian Sage, Rudbeckia American Gold, Sedum Autumn Joy. Thanks!!!

Advice needed! New plants and I’m clueless 😀 Hiiii everyone, I’ve been itching to expand my plant collection and today I got 6 new ones I’ve never had before. After putting them in my Planta app I realized I had no idea what I was doing when it comes to caring for some of them. I’m also quarantining my new plants for the first time since I didn’t get them from greenhouses I know & trust. I would really appreciate advice on how to help them thrive and also what issues/pests to watch out for! The plants in question are: - Elephant ear (not sure what variety, I think the normal kind? Got it from the farmers market) -Swiss cheese plant cutting (rooted) -Philodendron Micans cutting (fresh, not rooted) -Pearl and Jade Pothos cuttings (x2, rooted) -Satin pothos starter plant from a cutting -Baby variegated Alocasia (dawn?), growing from a corm in a lil container of sphagnum moss (has a dome lid not shown) The elephant ear has some weird texture on its leaves but I didn’t really see any signs of pests, I’m still quarantining it from the other new plants (which were all from the same source) just in case. I hoping it just got a bit chilly while outside at the farmers market and is being dramatic.
Any idea what type of plant this is? It’s just labeled ittie bittie bonsai lol
Okay, so sad to write this. Our plant Whitney was soooooo much alive when we got her and now she’s sad asf lol At first, she didn’t have a drain and some of you mentioned how she’s difficult and needs a drainage pot. So we just switched her over and put her closer to light. But man, by the hour she’s getting said and bottom leaves start turning! Any advice? Her soil currently is wet. Like wow. Her before and after within 2 weeks and her leaves. Then said to water her until water comes out the bottom but dang. It’s not leaving the pot lol ugh. I feel so bad for her. Any advice lol
