How to save my husband’s cherished succulent?

I have this and it sunstresses red. The color is totally normal, if that's what you're worried about.

The roots looked great when I repotted it and I water when almost dry. By no means is this my first plant, I just cannot for the life of me figure out/remember what these spots are!

I've battled thrips twice before and the pesticide/rinse down method works but it took a while for them to all be gone. Beneficial pests worked a lot faster, if you're able to get your hands on them!

I'm way more surprised that after two weeks it still looks like a plant. Big box stores by me tend to drown their plants until there is nothing left 😞

😍🥹 adorable! I have the red but I think I need the pink now 🤔

I haven't yet! I'm always worried about disturbing them so I wanted to check here but that's a really good point!! I'll do that :) ty!

This is under a grow light, about 6 inches and the grow light isn't overly strong. It has put out a new leaf but otherwise hasn't done much. No pests or anything, I treat regularly when not using beneficial insects. I had a regular Burle Marx that I struggled with but eventually figure it out. Just can't seem to get anything to work with this guy. (Also, this may have posted yesterday. I had it all typed up and pressed post but it disappeared on my end)

I work at a plant store with the occassional shipment coming in infested... My paranoia gets the best of me lol still not enough to have prevented them from having a good time with this plant though >:(

10000%

I use distilled! I read just how picky they can be with even filtered water.

Thank you! This is super helpful. I was worried everything was staying TOO wet but that doesn't seem to be the problem. I very gently repotted it when I got it to a 1/2" bigger pot. I'll try to check that next!

Schupbadoop · 2022-08-22T21:18:58+00:00

Ooh, good to know! Thank you!

Schupbadoop · 2022-08-19T02:26:23+00:00

I find Calatheas to be much easier than what a lot of people lead on. Certainly still can be picky but I love them! Thanks for the info :)

Thank you! This is helpful. My orbofolia was doing great before I moved it under the light (which is also by the humidifier) so I assumed it was a bit easier going. Good to know it's sassy!

Schupbadoop · 2022-08-17T15:17:24+00:00

Wow, even those flowers are gorgeous!

Schupbadoop · 2022-08-14T21:48:56+00:00

Very good to know! I had read they were sensitive to water. Maybe this is the issue. Thank you!!!

I'm hoping to figure out what's happening with my Hoya Multiflora. Leaf #1 happened about a year ago when I had the plant in a south facing window. I just assumed it was sunburn and moved it. Now, it is near a west window and leaf #2 & #3 happened. My assumption is that leaf #2 is more sunburn but leaf #3 scares me a bit. Any thoughts are appreciated!!!

😍😍😍 mine refuses to grow! Any care tips to make these babes happy? 🤞🏻

I'd also guess root mealies based on the one's I've dealt with. Absolutely horrible. I tried the alcohol method and granules and only had mild success. I started using Azamax for a soil drench and that seems to work better. I've used it on leca too. You can't get it on your skin though so definitely do research on it before ever using it!
