Can anyone tell me why this has happened to my succulent? Since February it has dropped a bunch of leaves and theyâve gotten much wider. Itâs in a west facing window because thatâs the brightest in my room but I can move it to the south facing in the common area if needed.
Helpppp! Does anyone know what this cactus is called?
Rescued what I think is a prickly pear cactus from a communal bin store earlier in the year. Repotted it in the right soil and have been watering as required and fertilizing. When I found it only had the main paddle and the right hand paddle. They both looked a bit diseased but Iâve checked it for parasites ect and canât spot anything. I usually have it in the sunniest place in the house which gets lots of direct sun light. During the course of spring and summer the left hand green paddle grew in quite quickly and has some spine growth. The other two still donât, the cactus is clearly still healthy as Iâm seeing new growth but the other two panels look diseased. What do people think about the other two older paddles? Feel somewhat invested so would atleast want to treat them if it was a disease. If itâs just old though I might consider taking the right paddle and repotting to allow room for a newer more healthy looking paddle to grow
So I recently discovered that my elephant bush and ghost plants had grown some mold on the tops of their soil. I decided to get rid of half the soil and replace it for my elephant bush and just completely replace the soil for my ghost plant since itâs pretty small. I thought I was watering them when they were completely dry but they were still pretty damp at the bottom of their pots so that kinda sucks. Other than that they look ok and Iâm letting them dry out for as long as possible. Iâm keeping an eye on my other succulents just in case but the others are fairly new and have only been watered maybe a couple of times. Decided to get a moisture meter to prevent this from happening again. Any other advice for my plants?
The evolution of my Halsey. Super red, blossomed a lot, displayed orange, and then mealybugs messed everything up. I trimmed her down to the nubs. Under a strong Mars Hyro light with a smattering of sun, sheâs gone green.
Recently got my first cactus! Any care tips are greatly appreciated!

Help!! I was watering my plants and I found him like this! I recently watered with mosquito dunks because I have a fungus gnat issue. I donât know if that has anything to do with it. He gets plenty of sun and I donât water often. I have separated from the rest of my plants.

Hi there! I am moving with these two beautiful succulents and a bit nervous for the long car ride with them, any tips or suggestions would be awesome!
Hey! I have a rat tail and dog tail cactus that I moved outside this summer and the top of the rat tail (first pic) is flimsy now. How can I transition them back inside without shocking them?
Hi! Any idea what I should do here? I thought I had killed these babes a few months ago, but I moved the pot outside and these cuties appeared! Iâm trying to be a better plant mom so any advice is welcome :)
Hey everyone! I got a whale fin and Iâm absolutely in love. Sheâs busting out of her nursery pot and Iâm so excited to see whatâs in there when I repot next week. I see that itâs typical for these snake plants to only come with one leaf, this one has lots. Is it a problem to allow it to grow into a larger plant with many leaves?
Could you please help me identify these succulents? I just got them today but have no idea what kind the are.
Hi all! My cactus bloomed yesterday and I just got a little worried that it might be some sort of death bloom saying heâs gonna die soon? Any answers?
Hi! New to the group here. I have these four succulents that keep blooming and procreating like bunnies. Iâm running out of pots. Do I cut the flower stems or let them bloom? These all came from one plant! I have no idea what Iâm doing here
Hey all!!! Just curious about how moist to keep my succulents soil, I live in San Diego, so the temperature never really changes and rain is a sometimes occurrence. My succulents are straight from the San Diego Botanic Garden and when I bought them at the Garden, they were moist but once I potted them together the soil dried cause of all of them feeding from the same pot. Is there a trick to knowing when to water and how much!?
I know itâs a late night but I just wanted to share my new baby in my collection. I finally got my hands on some Donkey Tail, I named her Rapunzel đ©đœâđŠ±đâșïž
What is the best succulent soil? Iâve been using miracle grow but I just saw a comment saying to avoid it.
