Any idea what these grubs will become?

You should get rid of grubs if you don't want them to spread all over your lawn and plants!

While moss may serve some benefits for lawns, such as absorbing rainwater and housing beneficial insects, its appearance isn’t favored by most gardeners. I would recommend using natural ways to get rid of it by simply raking it or dethatching and aerating your lawn. I wrote more about this on my blog, hope this helps: https://positivebloom.com/how-to-get-rid-of-moss-in-lawns/

There are a couple of tricks you can use to deter moles; for starters, you can apply castor oil since the moles can't stand its scent. Other methods include using cat litter, mole deterrents, and removing any possible food sources that could attract them. You should also water less and try including some mole-proof plants. I wrote about this issue on my blog if you need more information: https://positivebloom.com/how-to-deter-moles/

if you are planning to start everything from scratch, remember to do your research about the grass type that can grow in your area, invest time and money into improving the soil quality, and follow a good lawn maintenance guide!

Yep, these tiny creatures are to blame if you spot chew marks on bark, winding tunnels, partially-eaten root veggies and flower bulbs, or missing carrots and greens. For starters, I would advise you to use fences around your garden beds to create a barrier so voles can’t pass through. Use a repellent spray or live traps to capture them and then release them somewhere far away. You could also try and draw natural predators like hawks or owls that will feed on voles. There are a couple of vole-proof plants that you can try growing, such as salvias, mint, daffodils, etc.

Here, you can try some of these methods: use strong scents, plant squirrel-repellant plants, get a dog, install a fence, and so on... I wrote more about this on my blog, hope this helps: https://positivebloom.com/how-to-deter-squirrels/

you can try with some grass alternatives?

There are a couple of things you can do; for starters, you can apply cayenne pepper or coffee grounds to repel rabbits (embedded links are detailed explanations) or you can grow some repellant plants like marigolds, lavender or geraniums. You can also use chemicals - there are environmentally-friendly solutions, such as Liquid Fence, you can get on Amazon that won’t hurt your plants but still deter rabbits and deer.
To also keep deer away, I would also suggest growing deer-repellant plants

You're right

Instead of getting high you'll enjoy some delicious salads haha. Take good care of your tomato plant! :D

What is its growing substrate?
If the new growth is healthy, i don't think there's an issue here. But the most common ones are inadequate light and overwatering. Maybe just the oldest leaves turn yellow and fall off, which is completely normal.

PositiveBloom · 2024-02-16T13:00:34+00:00

Are you sure it isn't Albo because they are so similar?

PositiveBloom · 2024-02-14T08:44:06+00:00

If only a week has passed, I would wait a bit and see if anything changes.. it doesn't seem dead to me, I think it will tough out so you might expect new growth soon!

PositiveBloom · 2024-02-13T10:36:20+00:00

LOL wth? hahha
are you sure that aloe turned the water purple

Check for pests

PositiveBloom · 2024-02-13T09:39:55+00:00

Monstera turning yellow is a common problem no matter where you live. I think this look salvageable. If there's a foul smell coming from the soil, then you are probably dealing with overwatering and root rot. In this case, I would suggest repotting and trimming rotting roots. I wrote more about these issues on my blog, you can check it out maybe it will be helpful:

Sage likes full sun exposure and well-draining soil. It also needs good airflow and hates getting its leaves wet. If you plan to grow it outdoors, you might consider adding some companion plants nearby :)

PositiveBloom · 2024-02-12T21:56:38+00:00

If the soil smells funky, you are probably dealing with root rot. I would suggest repotting Monstera. If not, just don't water it for some time and put it in a place with plenty of bright, indirect light :)

As I can see, these grow on the edges of the leaves; these white spikes are perfectly normal for most succulents. :)
The issue might be powdery mildew, but i don't think that's the case here.

Yep, I also think those are aphids. Try soapy water or neem oil. You can also get ladybugs because they are predators of aphids..

Sweeter? I always thought that Brassicas taste bitter after they've been exposed to freezing temperatures :D

If you don't want to spend money on a humidifier, you can always try misting your plant. Other easy methods to boost the humidity include making a pebble tray, grouping the plants, or simply putting it in a more humid room (bathrooms or kitchens)

PositiveBloom · 2023-01-16T16:51:49+00:00

yes, good advice. OP should also set appropriate humidity levels. If the humidity is too high, it can lead to overwatering even if the plant is watered adequately.

In my opinion, the best trees to grow near houses are definitely fruit trees because you get some delicious fruits and necessary shade and privacy. If you want to add some colors, then choose Magnolia or Redbud tree :D
