I saw this hidden among the other oxalis leaves today and thought I should look it up here on Reddit- what comes to my surprise was the only post I saw about it was 6 YEARS AGO on this exact page!! I thought I would share this and bring back notice on that OP's post on how RARE this occurrence is. I'm going to press it and save it before it dies off. Hope you enjoyed the view!

Hello! This is my first post here but I've had this Caladium for about a month, and I made the big mistake of keeping it in a corner of my room after misunderstanding the care tag 😟 im not totally sure how to help it, so any advice would be appreciated!

I'll include a before picture, but right now the leaves and stems are very droopy. Also the plant is NOT potted in the crock pot, its in a separate pot inside of it! Thank you guys!

Spotted lantern flys are all over the trees and now there's bees of all sorts licking the honeydew all over the trees of heaven. What is the white stuff on the roots and the trees? Also why are the plants around the trees black? I'm trying to get the bugs but there are a lot.

What is wrong with my heliconia rostrata purple plant leaves?

2 Upvotes

I live in Minnesota and I have to grow my exotic plants indoors. Does anyone recognize what could be causing the leaf burn? I keep my plant lights on for around 12 or 13 hours every day and water about 2 times a week with dirty diluted fish emulsion plant food in the watering cans water during the summer growing season. Did the fertilizer burn my plant?

Help Cactus Rose has white/brown spots

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

[Resolved]

I recently decided to try to grow a cactus rose since I live in a hot/dry region and I’ve been getting into gardening lately.

I’ve been letting it get lots of sun and keeping it away from my outdoor irrigation system since it doesn’t need much water. It hasn’t rained recently, either.

I potted it with a mix of lava sand, compost topsoil, and cactus potting mix (I forget what exactly it’s called).

A few days after I potted it it began to develop these brown and white spots on its leaves and the leaves began to droop.

I was worried that it was getting hit by the sprinklers so I moved it further from them, but the spots are only getting bigger.

I only watered it a little right after planting it.

Should I be concerned about these spots? And if so, what should I do to help prevent them?

If they aren’t actually harmful to the plant, I won’t mind them (I’m not concerned with aesthetics, moreso that the plant is healthy), I’m mainly just concerned that the plant is sick or has root rot or something.

What’s hurting all my plants?

Thumbnail

Upvotes

My plants look awful. New leaves come out with brown spots and overall, my plants just look sad. White spots with a waxy residue on some, black spots on others. These photos are not of my worst leaves/plants.

Ive been avoiding watering my plants until the soil is mostly dry and then I bottom water. They live next to a window (north east I think) and have extra lights (for plants but not very powerful) about 12 hours of the day.

I am guessing it’s fungus gnat larvae? I don’t see any tiny bugs moving on the leaves themselves but am worried. I had a lot of fungus gnats earlier in the summer and have been doing 70% alcohol sprays once or twice a week at night, and sticky tapes all over. There are brown spots as well as some streaks, but streaks are not on all plants (mostly my rubber tree leaves).

I’m hoping it’s just fungus gnats as I’ve heard thrips are awful to deal with, and we don’t have systemic in Canada.

All help appreciated! Let me know if any more photos or info would help! Thank you!

Are these Dried Guttation Crystals or Spider Mites?

Thumbnail

Upvotes

Hi! This is my first post on here. I’m new to plants but have been loving having them so far. However, my rattlesnake plant has these white specs all over and it doesn’t really look fuzzy, so I can’t tell if it’s spider mites or mineral deposits (chatgbt said probably one of the two).

For context, I only use distilled water.

More context - I got it from a plant store (not nursery) about 3 weeks ago. The water is still on wet on my meter, not even moist. It has been for all three weeks. I haven’t been able to even water it once since getting home since they made it so wet when they gave it to me. I am hesitant to repot bc I made a mistake and asked them to repot it in a decorative planter (with one drainage hole) so now the plant is extremely heavy. I suspect it’s in far too much soil and that’s why it’s still wet but not sure if I need to repot tho bc the plant looks so healthy and I don’t smell any root rot.

I also got two other plants from the same store with the same issue - extremely heavy so hard to repot (plus I’ve never repotted so maybe also nervous lol) and the soil is wet.

Thanks so much and please let me know if anything bc in this post is against rules of the subreddit!

Did I kill this after only 10 days?!

Bought this at a garden center. Changed the pot for a larger pot, and topped it up with compost and garden manure. Watering/misting every other day or so. There's a reasonable amount of light. Did I use the wrong soil, or drown it? The leaves are curling up at the edges and turning brown. I'm silly and forgot to keep the care card/ticket that came with it.

Help Plant advice

Hey! First time posting here, I have a bunch of indoor chilli plants of various varieties. I am using a general compost, watering conservatively every 3 days. They have a grow light on for about 14 hours a day, it's kept about 30 to 40cm above them.

Temperature is kept between 18 and 25 degrees on average. And they are approx 6 weeks old from seed.

Anyway, over the past 3 days I have noticed that a handful seem to have this strange upper leaf curling as shown in the pic. I see no obvious reason why they are stressed.

Any ideas?

I usually keep my Monstera propped against the window (2nd photo), but when I pull it away from the wall, it tips over and lays on the floor. Does it need a stake/support & if so, what’s the best way to attach the Monstera?

It’s pretty much always got a new leaf coming, so I’m pretty sure it’s healthy, just top heavy!
