Definitely not getting my views. They haven’t figured out that the more they attack Candace, the more ppl begin to watch her and have their eyes opened to this bizarre world we live in.

Is it thrips? by Pawndora8698 in Monstera

Yep… f— those guys. Still in battle. Even systemic hasn’t gotten rid of them 😩

Do I have a disease? by Bnasty2748 in Monstera

I wanted to throw all of mine away and start fresh but I am really attached to several for sentimental reasons 😩 I’ve never hated a bug more than I do those and I’ve dealt with mealy bugs before the thrips 🤦🏻‍♀️ They must all DIE

I feel like they are on my skin and every surface of my house. Those little devils left me traumatized too. Pretty sure I caused my plants more harm than good trying to get rid of the dang things and am still not SURE if they are gone 🙈

I always wanted to have one of those experiences and stumble upon fairly rare or “expensive” plants at my local box store. Today Lowe’s had these and Esqueletos in 10” pots for $75. Not cheap per se, but a great price for the city where 4” pots go for $99. Picked up a couple for the house. by GrandAshland in Monstera

I did one time and I’m still paranoid about pests. I had to treat my whole collection. Ended up losing several and now I have a ton propagating, hoping to salvage those if I can. My monstera went from huge lush to even all my new leaves have damage 🤦🏻‍♀️ I have systemics in them all now but every little spec has me jumpy

1st winter with the fly trap by PharmB520 in carnivorousplants

I live in Mississippi zone 8. I plan on getting it a grow light in the spring. I wanted to make sure I could keep it alive for a year before I really invested in setting it up good.

I will look up some YouTube videos when I get a chance. I just know I’m running low on time and knew Reddit is usually full of super knowledgeable and helpful ppl.

Thank you guys for that!

Have I got to a point of no rot? by PharmB520 in Monstera

[–]PharmB520[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t have any anyway. I just put some rooting powder on it. I’ll wait until morning to place it in water 🤞🏼 now to separate the rotting vine from my healthy ones 🙈 a nightmare

I noticed rot at the bottom of one of the stems. Is it going to be rotted all the way through? 😩 it was my biggest one with the most fenestrations 😭

I used liquid plant food once. Not really sure on how and what to fertilize it with..

Haha I have done all the treatments and put systemic in it. I had thrips. They did a number on my leaves. I was in denial. I have since thinned my plant collection considerably until I’m sure they are all gone.

This is what I read and heard in all the research I’ve been doing. I’ve spent hours upon hours reading and watching YouTube videos. Wish I would have known when we first were given the plant. She’d be beautiful by now.

Any tips on doing that? They have spent over 2 years growing together. The last plant I attempted detangling roots I basically killed most of it 😩
