So I started liquid fertilizer for the first time yesterday and i definitely added double the amount of fertilizer to water on accident. Will that kill my plants? Should I wait and see cause they look fine now or do something to fix it.
I repotted a lot of my plants last night because the top soil of many of them was starting to look a little moldy. So I scrapped the top layer and added cinnamon and let it sit for a day. However when repotting, I used the same soil which was still wet, when repotting them but I didn’t water them. This morning a lot of my plants don’t look too happy which is to be expected when repotting, but should I water them. If so, how can I water without over watering. Some of my plants I had bottom watered and some were top watered, all were watered 4 days ago but have all be repotted, either in the same repot but with the soil being less compact or a different pot, that was more appropriate for its size. What is the best way to recover from transplant shock and are there any tips and tricks I should know about this moving forward. Thanks in advance for all your help!
Hi all, so I had repotted my Persian shield. Just got it about a week ago. There were 3 plants in one repot so it was a little tight so I repotted last night. First picture is from before I repotted the plant. Second one is last night after repotting and the last picture is from this morning. Note I did not water the plants after repotting. I repotted a lot of my plants last night cause I had mold on the top soil and realized that a lot of my plants soils were too compact so they weren’t draining well. I had scrapped off the bad soil and let it sit with cinnamon for a day or so but when repotting, I used the same soil cause it was wet. Should I still water it? If so, how can I water it without completely overwatering like last time. I had bottom watered it a 4 days prior
One my favorites plants. 😍
My Bristle Brush Cactus bloomed! 🌵🌸 I love their flowers 😄
When it says to repot, is that always necessary? Example photo, I don't think it is necessary?
New plant owner but excited for the new growth on my baby money tree 🌱

hi everyone! new plant parent here. I have been doing some research on repotting but I keep hearing different things. I know some of mine definitely need to be repotted because their roots are very overgrown, but how do you know how big of a nursery pot to buy? Also, what is the best soil mixtures to use? thank you!
I love when I bring plants home and they start to unfurl their leaves it makes me feel good to know they are comfortable in the space I created for them. ❤️❤️❤️😌😌😌
Is the watering days for our plants on plants correct?
My Pink Polka Dot is the one that started my addiction🥹 I did not think she would make it in the beginning but here she is! Do any of you guys have a polka dot plant?
My pothos starting losing all of it leaves, it put out a new one and all the rest died. It only had 7 or 8 leaves but I haven’t changed anything so I’m not sure why this happened. No new leaves have grown back, but the new leaf is holding on strong. Does anyone know why this happened? Or any other tips?
I got this plant a week ago, it didn’t have a tag but I believe it’s a Dieffenbachia ‘Summer Style', after maybe 2 days on my porch with my other plans it began to droop. I first thought it was getting too much sun, so I moved it inside for another two days where it didn’t improve. I repotted it to check out the roots which seemed fine. It’s been watered, but it won’t get any better. I’m not sure what else to do. Any advice or information on this plant would be greatly appreciated.
I have a lipstick plant. PLANTA is telling me to water it everyday. That can’t be correct!?
Hi everyone! I stumbled across this gorgeous gal at the store and couldn’t find a tag. I found another plant and on it it said “element aglaonema” but when I looked it up on planta, nothing showed up. Could anyone tell me what she is??
Has anyone else used Castile soap to clean there monstera leaves?! Which brand have you found works the best for you if so?
Probably a dumb question on spider plants - I recently purchased two and I’ve never owned one before. Are these all separate plants or one with multiple shoots? It looks like this on all sides for both plants. There’s one itty bitty guy in the center that I’m assuming is a baby.
