What is wrong with my plant

Hi everyone,

Something is wrong with my plant for a few weeks now. It looks sad and is drooping from above. I water it when the soil is dry. It is placed next to a window so it gets sufficient light. I also noticed the bottom leaves keep turning brown and falling off. At the top I do get new leaves though. So I don’t understand whats wrong and what it needs. Can someone please help me?

Thanks in advance.

Will my plant make a recovery?- Cutleaf Coneflower

My plant is my pride and joy, I was gone for one day and she didn’t get water, now she is drooping and I am so sad and mad at myself!

The leaves are still green and big but the plant is drooped over and her leaves have started to curl (picture included)
I pulled off any dead limbs that were on the plant and I made sure she got extra water, any other tips?

I know she needs to be repotted soon, but I want to make sure she will be able to live!

(She gets watered everytime her soil is dry, I check everyday- and she gets moderate to full sunlight)

I am putting her on a plate with water so she can get bottom watered too.

Please no judgment there was no one to water her that day and I just her to be okay 🥺

Hi! I got this bonsai as a gift about 3 weeks ago. A few days after getting it I left town for 2 weeks and came back and it was shriveled up like this. I scraped a little bark off and he’s still green underneath so I’m hoping I can bring him back to life. 🙏🙏please help! I have him soaking now for about 10min then was going to put the whole pot in a ziplock bag for humidity. It is from the Anthropologie garden shop if that info helps too. EDIT - ficus repens is the type of bonsai

Can this plant be saved?

Repoted into succulent mix and it now is showing signs of rotting. I thought I was only watering when necessary but I am new to being a plant dad. Any advice would be appreciated!

Dogwood in trouble

I have a dogwood tree and it was planted three years ago. This year its leaves are only blooming on one branch. I dug around and I found these grubs in the soil. Is this killing my tree? How do I get rid of them?

Monstera adansonii dying :(

The healthy leaves are developing these brown/grey spots with very small dots. Some of them got yellow and some dried (took them off). The soil is humid so I try not to overwater it so I don’t know what’s going on. New leaves are like this too :(

I have had this coffee plant for years. It hasn't been growing taller in years. I didn't change pots like my research suggested as it was at my parents place.

At the beginning I would change to a bigger pot as it would grow but I moved out so my parents were the ones taking care of it.

So I was unable to keep up with the pot changes as recommended online the first year of having it.

I have started spraying the leaves when I remember since I had it which is a few times a week the past few weeks. My parents would water it once a week but didn't spray the leaves.

I removed the parts of the leaves that have been turning brown. I try to keep up With removing any dead parts of the leaves to ensure it stays healthy. The iv bag of water I just put on today as a slow drip. May not keep it in all the time just testing how it works.

I moved it today to the bathroom as it was in the way were it was before.

Would you say it looks root bound?

Why is my plant sad?

I think this is a Monstera deliciosa, though I’m not 100% sure. I keep her by the window and water her once a week with about 2dl. What am I doing wrong??

Weird yellow powder on plants???

Every time I try to google it all that comes up is fungus, but idk. Its persistent and spread to other plants, im assuming its due to humidity in my greenhouse or from dead leaves I forgot to pick off. Its on the soil and the plants themselves now, im about to get every single one a deep dunk in some peroxide, fungicide, and neem oil in water at that point and hope for the best ​

This is my first spring in my new house and I’ve been eagerly anticipating watching these peonies bloom in my yard (growing zone 7, not sure if location matters). Can anyone advise whether this white fungus looking stuff will affect the blooms or health of the plant? If so, how can I help address the issue? Thanks!

Can someone help me out with my basil?

My basil has been acting up, and I have no idea why.

Starting from the bottom, the leaves have been turning yellow, then brown, and then falling off.

Am I watering it too little or too much? I’ve been watering when the soil looks really dry

Or is something wrong with the light? it’s on a north and east window (light from both sides)

I bought her yesterday, and her leaves are droopy and soft, I thought it was normal (like a weeping willow). I'm a first timer, she's my first plant. I just learned today that the leaves are supposed to be firm and upright, What do I do? How can I save her?

Living on my succulents and making little webs. Not sure if these are the good guys or plant killers… sorry for my hand shaking on the video.

Is my soil too wet?

Repotted my fig tree into this bucket because it was getting too big for the other pot. It’s been about a week with no rain but the soil doesn’t seem to want to dry? Should I be worried?

u/tehdollyllama — 5 days ago

Found this in a bag of apples, each in seemingly good condition except this one. Did it just take a bad tumble and bruise or will it spoil the bunch?

My pothos has been losing leaves towards the base of the plant. Many currently have yellow marbling, assuming they will also be lost soon. Does anyone know what this might be from?

The plant is near a south facing window and gets bright indirect light most of the day. Watered once a week until water comes out drainage hole. No recent events like repotting. I did have a grow light nearby for a while towards late winter but haven’t been using since seasons have changed and we get more sun in this room, could this be from that?

I’m not aware of any pests and it is in a houseplant mix from my local plant store. The leaves up top are still looking good but I’m worried this will just continue upward. Finished
