I have this gorgeous succulent, but she has many tiny spider like bug that is crawling through her soil. I don’t know if these bugs are bad or good, I’m guessing they’re not good. Does anyone have any tips on how to repel them? I have a citronella plant and I put some of the oil on the outside of the pot. Is citronella ok to use on the actual plant? I could really use some help so all recommendations will be considered and helpful. Thank you so much.

I have this Barrel cactus, and I noticed these white yellow ish things. Anyone know what these are and are they hurting the cactus?

I got this guy some months ago and cleared out all the dead leaves and so forth. The offshoots are doing great. Those seem to have stronger roots now. My question is why do I keep getting tips to shrivel and brown? I only water when bone dry. He seems healthy and happy and actually kind of perked up when I removed the undergrowth (probably 4+ months back.) is this normal?

I adopted a guinea fowl aloe from a local woman who’s moving across the state. That pot is a good 16” or so. Her name is Calypso. She has a pretty offshoot there on the right. If there is anything you see that needs to be done let me know. The pot has drainage. Watered and fertilised today.

I posted on here a few days back about my cactus arriving damaged and me trying to save it.. this is where I'm at, I water it with a spray bottle every couple of days as it looks like it's drying out? But some parts are sticking some not... Should i keep going as I know will take a while to fix.. if so what's the other alternative? Plant the broken part in the soil??

I picked up a few new babies today!! Also a pot I fell in love with but does not have a drainage hole, any suggestions? I’m afraid to drill one because I don’t want to crack it! I’d like to use it for the String of Turtles, but I can also find a non draining friendly plant 😏

First bloom of the season. This lifesaver cactus has really taken off after a repot and separation.

Does anyone in PA know where to buy Jade plants? I’ve only ever seen them in Home Depot and Lowe’s, and from my experience with both stores, they tend to have issues with their plants getting infested with insects that you end up bringing home and infecting your other houseplants. Any online sellers are fine too, but I really only know one nursery that’s in my area, and they don’t sell jades.
