Hi everyone, this is new to me.. what’s going on here and what do I do about it?
A girlfriend sent this to me this morning. 😂😂😂 She knows me so well.
I repotted my Snake after a week of keeping it in the plastic nursery pot where it was clearly soaked and in the wrong soil. I got my succulent soil in and bought a terra cotta pot so it would dry faster. I removed all the wet potting soil, but either someone stuck a bunch of individual plants together with 1 inch roots, or they rotted. So that’s what I had to work with. I mixed 3/4 succulent soil, 1/4 potting mix, added 1 tsp white vinegar to acidify, mixed well and repotted. Didn’t know if I was supposed to water so added a cup distilled water. Although the plant looks great, I really want to water it well with added organic fertilizer, to give those roots a chance to grow and grab hold. Should I? I know the Planta app will adjust, no?
Hello Plant Enthusiasts!! I would like to pose a question about a plant I have owned called Queen of the Night. Does anyone have thoughts on how to take care of them. I was given one that was literally a stick of four inches. My husband thought I was crazy but it flourished into a beautiful plant. Never a bloom. Well I gifted it to my daughter and it ended badly. I took it back and cut it back to three sticks again. I have read some articles but would appreciate advice from people who have worked with this plant.
Does anyone know about Mango trees?
I need help with my money tree. The leaves are turning yellow
Hey you all! Does anyone fertilize at every watering? I am thinking about starting to do this but don’t want to hurt my plants. I have seen other people that do it and are seeming to do so successfully but would love any thoughts or feedback
What happened to my poor plant?! 😭
My current indoor farm garden: sweet potato 🍠, celery 🪴, red potato 🥔, carrot greens 🥕, romaine lettuce 🥬, parsley 🌿, shallot 🧅, green onion 🧅 and coffee ☕️.
My sweet potato 🍠 is growing even more and significantly in a short time.🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I have an Anthurium Warocqueanum and her leaves tips are drying up looking yellowish… any tips?
Hi. I was just wondering why my succulent looks this way. It’s pretty new but it was looking fine a few days ago.HELP😫
I have been looking for a Prince of Orange Philodendron plant for a while now. So imagine my excitement when I went to the grocery store today and found a display of them in the florist department. I quickly found the best looking one and adopted it (or did I rescue it?). When I got it home I realized that it has a few roots coming out of the top of the pot and it actually slip out of the pot quite easily. Is it too soon to repot it? I don't want to shook it too much.
No lie, some of my plants scare me lol. Here’s my purple waffle plant today next to the pot it came in two months ago 😭
I need some help with this little guy; he’s a ‘Frydek’ allocasia. I purchased him online, and he came in moderately good shape. But, as time has marched on, he began to do poorly. I repotted him in a ficus soil, and now he’s asking to be watered every single day! He doesn’t seem to show any deleterious effects from his frequent watering ; the moisture meter I use shows normal when I water, so I know I’m not overwatering him. Any advice regarding this little guy would be appreciated. I only bought this plant because I saw it on a Planta member’s post, and fell in love with it. TIA. 🤗💚🪴 PS. I think I can see the beginnings of a new leaf starting as I look through his stem… 😀!
If you dug a hole in the ground, and put a pot with a plant in it, would it be able to survive temperatures like plants planted in the ground? I was wondering if I could do this with some plants in winter.
I found this fall army-worm moth caterpillar on my indoor parsley and chose to raise it in a container covered by punctured aluminum(photo one), does anyone know what they eat. I am currently feeding it fallen mini umbrella tree leaves.
Pardon the mess that is my plant room! I'm waiting on my plant stand to be shipped so I can move them to the south facing window for fall. I'm looking for more easy-care plants. I LOVE variegation! Any suggestions on other pretty babies i can try to love? Bonus points if its easy to propagate! Thanks for helping this newish plant mama out!
Figuring out how to bring the plants I had outdoors inside (north Texas)😅 was thinking about buying the Amazon plant shelves and have one wooden cabinet I made into a grow cabinet. We shall see how it goes!
How do you know when African Violet flower death is normal? Mine were blooming beautifully for a couple of months but now they’re kind of wilting at the stem of the flower itself and dropping…
