When watering a Ruby ficus plant…do I water the soil or can I wet the leaves as well? She’s recovering…she’s been through a lot since the LA fires. She was more vibrant and wasn’t droopy before but she’s gonna recover and be better! Also do you recommend coconut oil once a week for shine or neem oil??
Any recommendations for a tiny plant that can be in an area without any sun exposure? I got a cute little pot for my entryway and the plant died within a few days. I'm wondering if there something I can put in it or if I should use a fake plant lol.
I pulled her out of a dumpster at Walmart where I Work. Repotted, Pruned, amazing soil, well draining pots, fertilizer. Look at this baby a few months later with a bloom!
Just wondering what you all do to clean your used pots? I clean out the dry dirt with a scrubbing pad then place in sink with hot water and dish soap. Then I spray with a mix of water and vinegar. Then I rinse thoroughly and let them dry. Do you have any other tips? I know you can use bleach too but I only do that if there was an issue with the plant that was in it beforehand. Please let me kbow your thoughts. Thanks
I’m not sure if my Opalina is etoliating and I should snip and prop, if this is part of her growth? She’s been under a grow light for 10 hours a day, I have watered maybe once a month? TIA!
I got her before Xmas on clearance at a local store and I am so happy I haven’t killed it 🥰

So i have an African Violet plant and Planta says it needs watered in 3 days but her leaves are wilting and for my other plants like pothos it means they’re thirsty. I dont want root rot so do I stick to Planta guide or go ahead and water?
I thought this girl was going to be a plain Jane with a curvy figure, however, she seems to be developing some rouge on her leaves! What’s going on? Is this plain Jane going to become a Betty Grable? TIA!
Just got some of these sticky bug catchers and was wondering if you put them in every plant or just a few in each area. Thanks
For those of you with large plant collections, what does your intake process look like? As in, how do you treat new plants for potential fungus, pests, or other ailments? Thanks for the help :)
Anyone know much about the DocBlock® Michelle® Velvet Leaf Anthurium? By proven winners
I am further investigating different types of SOIL MEDIUMS, and I’m noticing that peat does not seem to be a desirable additive; is that correct? I’m discovering that Fox Farms and Sol Soils seem to be popular mediums. Should I be looking for soils that have no peat in them? What soils do you highly recommend for your tropical plants? TIA!
Can someone tell my why my baby bunny belly plant is getting all wilty? It looked so beautiful until about a month ago. I’ve only been watering it about once a month in the winter, and it’ll look a little wilty when I water it but then it will spring right back up but it’s not doing that this time
Zone 10 - I planted a few Dahlia bulbs and no action yet. Any suggestions or am I just being impatient? It’s my first go at bulbs 🤷🏼♀️ I started them in a container 3 weeks ago, approximately.
Anybody know what kind of alocasia this is? I'm thinking maybe tiny dancer?? Just realized I have had it entered wrong...
