I’ve been throwing my boogers into a plant pot and the plan is thriving. It even bloomed. Do you have any experience with boogers as fertilizer or is this maybe just coincidence?
I’ve propagated a dozen different plants but this one just won’t happen for me. I’m using all the methods I’ve had success with elsewhere and always end with a dead vine.
Agave eggersiana growing outside in Missouri, USA. When night time temps are below 60f/15c I take it inside. Last year while outside it turned this light green that I don’t think seems very healthy and I was hoping it’d improve this summer but it hasn’t. Maybe I need to add nitrogen to the soil? Pot drains well.
I think it is a Faucaria of some kind. It was labeled “mimicry” which I now understand to describe many types of succulents but didn’t have any reception at the nursery to see if it was a helpful common name. I broke my self imposed no-buy for this little friend because it is so unlike anything else in my collection.
So this guy was super etoliated and yellowing, and just not looking great. I chopped the top and tore off a bunch of lower leaves about a month or two ago. It’s been living under brighter grow lights since and now I think it looks really neat!
They aren’t moving and don’t seem to be attached, as the come off easily when I wipe the leaves with a tissue. They are on two plants that were right next to each other but not the basil that was also next to one of them
I live in the PNW near Seattle, but because it is summertime, nighttime temperatures are consistently above 10 degrees celsius and daytime temperatures are around 27.
So I found this cactus a few years ago abandoned in the woods (Central Europe) and I’ve wondered since who he is, especially because he lowered his arms some month ago and build roots so I put another pot underneath it…
Some fungus gnats have showed up, and unlike what some blog posts have said, they don’t seem to be attracted to apple cider vinegar. Has anyone found a trap that gets rid of these little things? I’ve put the plants outside for now, hoping that will dry them out and make the flies fly away.
I’m refering to the one climbing the walls. It was growing all over and I didn’t know what to do with it. I then just stared hanging it to the wall with cable nails. I never really thought of pothos as a climbing plant but it actually does stick to the wall once something holds it there for a bit first. Now it gets so much light that it’s growing like crazy. Not sure whether to do a full loop or turn back once I reach the lower right corner.
Hi, I’m a beginner at plant caretaking. I recently picked out a couple of small plants at a nursery, but they didn’t have any pottery to go with them unfortunately.
2 standard African violets (one a scraggly guy in need of a repot once he’s out of rehab), 2 primulina bebes (paper cups inside a teeny terracotta pot so hopefully they stop falling over), and 2 AV leaves that WILL propagate and give me flowers, dammit.
Hey, we moved about 1.5 years ago and our ZZ plant loves its new place. It made 3 new shoots since we moved in and even bloomed last week. But today we found brown spots on the leaves of the newest shoot.
Hello! I hope it’s ok to post questions like that here. I have ALWAYS had problems with Monsteras and their leaves browning and dying off. I always thought it might be a too dark or too sunny location. Now I’ve made some new living room space and I thought maaaybe this spot would be good (bit away from a large window, lots of light but no direct sunlight hits it)
When I started getting more serious about plantkeeping last year, I picked up the essentials for repotting the plants I had. I have potting mix, perlite, orchid bark, spaghum moss, and fertilizer pellets
Calatheas. They have the reputation for being literally impossible to keep alive.
And if you manage to at least not outright kill them, they look super sad. Crispy leaves, no growth, and more dead than alive. You also just didn’t like the plant to begin with, because it always has been super fuzzy about everything.
Running into mixed messages while reading about whether mulberries can be grown indoors or not. Does anyone know if they require their cold periods to live and function, or will they be healthy but simply not make fruit? I’d love to grow a berry bush or a similar sized ornamental shrub inside, but I do not have access to an outdoor space to give it chilling time. Has anyone done this before?
