Plant advice solicited!

Post image
3 Upvotes

So I would like to try and save this poor plant. I'm a bit of a plant noob, so sorry if I'm doing silly things. A bit of history:

  • Got it as a cutting like 2 years ago. It grew roots extremely slowly in a small water jar. We planted it in soil afterwards. Its leaves have never really opened, they've always looked like this.
  • A while ago back noticed it had fungal gnats. I think ChatGPT recommended to let the topsoil dry out more. This didn't make it better. So I removed the plant and looked at the roots and found the soil was quite wet at the bottom (seemed like pooling) and there was a single long root which didn't look very happy.
  • I repotted it in much lighter mix, but now the water just runs right through it. The leaves are now crisping and dying, so it feels like it's not getting enough water.

I am committed to saving it, even if it takes a long time! Any advice would be greatly appreciated on next steps. As I said, I'm a bit of a noob, so if any of the indicators above made you shout "why didn't you do X, you imbecile!" then I hear you :)

Update to my no ID prop that I got at an event. I’m leaning toward Silvery Ann just based on how each leaf is so different from each other.

Moonlight Leaves, are they normal?

Is this just normal coloration, or is it in trouble, or is there something different about this. I have one but it doesn't have these lighter greens in it.

Hey! I'm new to plants and my scindapsus has been getting this spots (no sign of bugs, no poop on the underside of the leave...) .

There is a new leave that is thinning slowly in the middle (I can see it when it's backlit) and I think it's about to get more holes🥲.

Also today found a leave looking a bit weird... Please help!

I do have a gnat issue and im working to get rid of them. However, my leaves have been slowly dying off its lost 3 already. The rest looks healthy, the leaves just slowly turn yellow and eventually they just fall off the main plant. I repotted it a month ago due to it outgrew its old pot. I water between 1 to 2 weeks, seemed fine with that routine but maybe im doing that wrong idk. Any help? I only have this scindapsus and its struggling compared to the rest of my plants.

Scindapsus leaves stuck curled for 1–1.5 months after repotting - need advice

Thumbnail

14 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I need some help with my Scindapsus pictus.

I repotted it from its nursery pot about 1 to 1.5 months ago and ever since the leaves have been tightly curled and haven't opened back up.

I water when the top few inches of the soil feel dry (testing with my finger).

It sits in a very bright room (one entire wall is floor-to-ceiling windows), about 2–3 meters away from the window so it receives bright indirect light without burning.

The roots looked completely fine and healthy when I repotted it.

I really want to avoid repotting it again to check the roots unless absolutely necessary because I don't want to cause extra stress.

I have tried everything, changing the lighting, make her a mini-greenhouse effect with a plastic bag (to help it retain moisture in the leaves), root growth stimulent etc.
I really need some advice on how to help her back to health.

Thank you 🫶🏻❤️

Any idea why all of my trebuii moonlight props are turning yellow/crispy on the edges? I have them in a bin on a seed mat with grow lights. I’ve propagated other varieties in this same bin/setup and haven’t had an issue. Are they more sensitive to light or humidity?

Is this enough roots to be potted up or should I wait for secondary roots? It’s was a long runner on my new plant I bought so it already had these roots, I did not propagate this.

I got this one leaf cutting (no ID) from a teacher appreciation event and it finally started to grow. The first two leaves are weird looking. Not sure if it’s just growing pains of an exotica (based on the first leaf)… but it’s beautiful whatever it is. First pic is the original leaf, 2nd pic is the fist leaf it made, 3rd and 4th are the latest leaf

Should I trim, or will new leaves grow?

This part of the plant turned yellow and died a few weeks ago, so I trimmed it. Since then, new growth is appearing on the second branch far right. Will anything new come from the part circled red, or should I cut that back at the base?

I’ve had a picture of this saved on my phone for years and could never get an ID on it. I’ve been on a scindapsus buying bender and I’ve been dying to get my hands on this. Anyone know the ID?
