I sprayed my little Calathea with neem about five days ago, because she had spider mites. This is what the backs of her leaves look like now; they’re a little bit less white than they were before she was sprayed. How do I know when spider mites are dead? Is the white coloration permanent? I’m unsure as to what she should look like when spider mites are gone, and how many times she should be sprayed with neem. TIA… 🤗💚🪴

I could really use some help/advice. I am in zone 9 and most of my plant are outside most of the time. In the past I have moved them inside on the nights that will be coldest but these plants are new to me and I’m thinking I should set them up inside. The problem is that my house is super dark. I have one spot with south windows that I think would work for my philodendrons and Chinese evergreen. What about my coleus and zig zag? Should I set up grow lights instead? I don’t want to keep shocking them with the in and out all the time… Tia.

How much light to Monsteras really need? I read one thing, I hear another then see another. What kind of light does yours get if you have one?

my leaves on my orchid are getting saggier everyday and i don’t know why. i googled for answers and it said it’s either being over water, under watered or too much light. i say the watering isn’t the problem because it has new buds. tips would be appreciated!

Question about Jasmine- My jasmine's leaves started drooping heavily, I suspected underwatering. When I watered they perked up (a bit) ! I added stones on top of soil to conserve some moisture too. But now I found these shriveled leaves (see first pic below), & they r not dry and crumbly as I would expect for underwatering.... they're sorta squishy I'm wondering if this is just jasmine dormancy for the winter? One or two leaves dropped off too. Or is it a watering issue?

Hi everyone! My monster adansonii is getting extremely leggy. I’ve added moss poles to accommodate the length but it’s almost reaching the ceiling. I cut off some of the ends bc I didn’t like the way it was looking. Now, I’ve got several leggy stems that I don’t just want to throw away. What is the best way to propagate the nodes? Do I cut them up into smaller pieces? Use water, soil, or something else?

I am leaving town tomorrow for Thanksgiving and will be gone for more than a week. Should I water all of my plants before I leave or will that be too much water for any of them?

Does anyone have any recommendations for smart plant sensors that connect to an app on your phone ? There seems to be lots of these now available ranging in price from £15 to £80.

I've had this Prince of Orange Philodendron since about March. Since then, it has quadrupled in size, however I don't see many roots considering the size of the plant. I moticed today that it is starting to lean/grow sideways. It looks like it is starting to push out roots as if it wants to grow sideways. Should I repot and plant it on its side so those roots can grow for a more stable plant as it gets larger?

Please help! Do I need to repot? She’s been doing great for nearly 6 months and now 90% of leaves are browning and sooooo droopy

My sister has a tomato plant and found this on her soil and started freaking out because she thinks it’s mold?? Does someone know what this fuzzy little white thing starting to appear is?
