I just dropped Delilah while taking her to the window to get light… i’m actually balling my eyes out i’m so upset i feel so bad. i really pitted her and gave her same water then put her out by the window do yall think it’ll be okay!?

Can someone help me identify this plant? I believe it is a succulent and maybe a type of jade plant. Any thoughts?

Hi there. I’m a new user and I was gifted a succulent in a 500ml can for christmas from a friend. I’ve tried figuring out the species of the succulent, as well as asking the friend personally what the species is but she isn’t too sure and i can’t afford premium right now (with christmas and new year just gone by). So, if anyone is any good with figuring species out, please let me know! I am planning on repotting the succulent OUT of the can, but it hasn’t got roots at the moment as it was repotted on the Christmas and I was gifted it on Boxing day. Thank you !!

Hi everyone! My bunny ear cactus fell and broke into a couple pieces, any tips on propagating?

Recently brought home my snake plant but some of the leaves seem to have splits down them. Any idea why this is happening and what I can do? I think it was slightly under watered in the store as the leaves were drooping but seems to have perked up.

Please don't hate but this is the first plant I ever brought back at uni, I've since moved home and it has been in my window with the blackout blinds closed the majority of time for 3 years. 6 months ago I moved into my first home and it now sits in my lounge, I have repotted it because it was still in it's original 5cm pot. This plant has been neglected for 3 years and I'm amazed it's still alive, I've only potted it in normal soil as I didn't have any succulent soil mix to see if it would survive and it seems to be coming back to life, but my question is can I do anything about this stalk that is bending over/ leafless is this normal? To give context I put the roots right at the bottom of the pot and then filled the soil around it because of how tall it is. Should I try to propagate a cutting from the top of does it need to be a lying down succulent, should I stick it for support?

My cactus is not doing too well and I'm curious if anyone has any advice on how to save it? It does have drainage and it's right in my window and gets plenty of light.

Are these peniscactus and boobiecactus look healthy to you? I got them from my parents for Christmas. They've had them since October. Little light. No dranage, cactus soil that's about 3 years old. My mom says she watered it a couple times since then but very sparingly. I am wondering what to do right now. I have them under a grow light in a warmer house now. I am unsure if I should disturb them with a pot change and soil change, or should I give them a soak and drain it myself after just to get them some water. Or do you think this looks like they already have enough water? They are SLIGHTLY squishy to touch, but mostly firm. My mom says they look just a slightly more shriveled/wrinkly since she got them. So I'm unsure if this is a good or bad thing. Are wrinkles like this normal for these cactus? The soil I checked with a meter, says it's bone dry. What should I do right now with this? Any reccomendations?

I got a new (previously being propagated) fishbone and was wondering if anyone had advice for taking care of one. Thanks!

Looks like my plant is getting sick. How to save this.

My succulents seem to be getting “leggy” I believe that means they aren’t getting enough sun so I moved them to my window sill. I also have some that seemed to have dried up and leaves falling off and some that look “wrinkly” Please help. Should I put them under grow lights? More water? Less water? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Does anybody use a moisture meter? I have one but never really used it consistently. If you do use one, do you find it accurate and do you base a watering schedule by it. This plant stuff is all new to me, but I’m absolutely falling in love with the hobby!

So whilst inspecting my large cactus from my previous post, the entire body of it crumbled under its own weight and was very clearly rotted throughout from years of no drainage (I'm a bad plant mum). I have just propagated these 2 babies from it, the photos show where I cut them. Do they look okay? Or are they doomed too?

Hello all! I've grown this huge cactus for many years, it's slowly but surely started to look rotten(?). Since getting this app, and it telling me that this plant should have drainage holes (which it didn't for maybe 0 of those years!) I think I found the cause of the rotting, and have since repotted it. Is this cactus beyond saving? Is it time to propagate the new bobbly baby cacti growing on it? 😭🤞

Hi! I am a new plant mom and love it! I have a Christmas cactus that I found on the side of the road. It was alive in good condition so I scooped it up and repotted it! It had lots of flowers bloom from it but unfortunately the flowers keep dying and falling off. I water it when my app tells me to but it keeps happening. Any tips on keeping the flowers alive and thriving?! Thank you!!! (I attached a picture of all the flowers. They have all fallen off now :( )
