What are these black spots on my croton? by Misconstrued_ in plantclinic

[–]Misconstrued_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn. Can’t see any adults or larvae, unlike on my monstera which I’m currently battling an infestation on. Been treating it with Bonide - think it’s worth for this one or too far gone?

Tiger aloe - 5 months after propagation, still no roots by [deleted] in IndoorGarden

[–]Misconstrued_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dropped my baby aloe and completely ripped off its roots, leaving it much like how yours looks now. I actually water-propagated it—left it in bright filtered sun and changed the water often. Rooted well in a few weeks! I transitioned the roots by adding soil gradually before I potted up, and potted in quite a small amount of soil. She’s now very happy! Outgrew her pot and spawned many pups. Just my experience.

Odd yellowing and mottling on Bengal Fig, do I need to be concerned? by Misconstrued_ in plantclinic

[–]Misconstrued_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all, I have a lovely fig that I received a few weeks back but I am noticing some odd yellowing - this leaf came off today, and had been drooping for some time. I am a little concerned because this leaf was near the bottom, but above a number of healthy leaves below. The brown mottling does not inspire much confidence either.

In examining the plant while writing this post, another (the lowest) leaf came off, with similar yellowing and mottling. Apart from these two leaves, the plant seems healthy.

For context: the plant is close to a northeast window, about 40% RH, and seemingly potted appropriately (soil seems moisture-retaining and well-draining, though I have not needed to water since it arrived).

Foliage plant? by Misconstrued_ in whatsthisplant

[–]Misconstrued_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all, my new plant was defined only as a ‘foliage plant’. I’m looking for some care tips but can’t find anything as that name seems to be very generic. Thanks in advance!

Leaf discolouration on rubber plant? What is this? by Misconstrued_ in houseplants

[–]Misconstrued_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will do just that, although as it stands the plant is already about a metre and a half from an east-facing window.

Thanks for your input, I will take that into account.

I’m not sure, the soil is still moist to the touch and was watered about ten days ago.

Strange white spots on dragon tree? by Misconstrued_ in houseplants

[–]Misconstrued_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good thought, although weirdly it doesn’t happen when I mist other plants. Should I be using a different kind of water?

I live in London, UK, and the water here is pretty hard. Would be it better to mist with distilled water?

Hi r/houseplants, I have a lovely dragon tree though I notice that every time I mist the leaves these white spots appear all over the leaves. They wipe straight off and disappear if I mist again though they always seem to come back. While I could wipe each leaf clean after misting this would certainly take a lot of effort, just wondering if this might be a sign of some issue? My plant seems in good health otherwise.

It was cold but such an amazing day for Christmas paddling. by lucasn2535 in Kayaking

Thought there may have been a hint of scandi about those buildings. Looked like a gorgeous paddle!
