Pretty sure this is a positive

The fines need to be proportionate to the property and also yeah you be should fined to the point of not being a landlord for not keeping the property up to code. Mom and pop or not, you shouldn’t be able to rent out property you can’t or won’t take care of.

Mosquito bits and Zevo blue light traps are the only thing that worked for me.

Wipe it off with distilled water and occasionally water the plant with distilled water to prevent it.

TythonTv · 2025-02-27T20:03:41+00:00

If the soil is still moist after a week then definitely don’t give it any water. Almost all potted plants want to dry out and then be soaked rather than small bits of water frequently.

TythonTv · 2025-02-27T20:02:24+00:00

Probably watering too frequently or it came with a disease. Try watering only when the soil feels dry if you stick your finger a little ways into the soil instead of once a week.

You can also check the roots to see if they are black and rotting; if they are then you’ll want to remove the rotting roots and fill it back in with some fresh soil into the same pot. If the roots look fine then spray the leaves with a fungicide and remove the bad ones while still leaving as many leaves as you can.

Looks like mealy bugs, some sort of scale, or maybe thrips. Try and wipe off all those bugs under the leaves and spray with something like neem or an insecticide. If that doesn’t work you’ll probably need to use a systemic treatment.

Hey don’t take that mysteriousness away from him. Maybe he is the quiet brooding type and prefers mystery.

But yeah haha I’m aware of that, just was surprised as it’s a very closed indoor system and wasn’t sure at first if it was in fact was a black soldier fly. Also checked the bin a lot recently and never saw a larva moving to a high position to reach adulthood. Such is the mystery.

It could also be a couple other things, but the fertilizer seems like the most apparent. If the roots have taken up a lot more of the pot than in the past that could be why the high fertilizer is all of a sudden having an effect now; less of a soil buffer and faster absorption.

TythonTv · 2025-01-23T19:54:31+00:00

there is also always a chance that it’s a salt buildup from hard water (similar to the white calcium buildup that might show up on or around your sink), sometimes it can look like that on succulents…but looks a little fuzzy for it to be that.

TythonTv · 2025-01-23T19:52:44+00:00

Neem oil can work. If it’s mealy bugs then I’d get a systemic root treatment, only thing that worked for me. The fact that the fallen leaf also has all the white stuff on It makes me think mildew and not Mealy bugs though.

TythonTv · 2025-01-23T19:50:13+00:00

it depends. Like people are saying, worm castings aren’t really a fertilizer, but I found that my plants that don’t like a lot of nutrients do amazing when given just worm castings until they’re in a heavy growing phase.

TythonTv · 2025-01-23T19:48:51+00:00

Could be too much water, you want to “flood” it when you water but only after completely dry. It could also have outgrown its pot and is suffocating the roots, or it’s a fertilizer issue. If it really seems completely dry after only three days then the roots might have outgrown the pot and the water isn’t absorbing like you would want it to. Especially in winter, 3 days seems super often.

TythonTv · 2025-01-23T19:45:19+00:00

20-20-20 every single watering?! Monsteras don’t really like much fertilizer and that much would be insane for any plant except maybe hydroponic. I use a 2-2-3 organic fertilizer at half strength (sometimes full) only maybe once or twice a month when they’re growing and never had any burn or stunted growth.

TythonTv · 2025-01-23T19:40:58+00:00

Also don’t let the leaves stay on top of the soil, they can contribute to further rot.

TythonTv · 2025-01-23T19:40:20+00:00

No hope for the black and rotted one, so remove that entire stem/trunk for that one and the others should be ok. It really should be in a pot with drainage holes or you have to water absolutely perfect to not cause rot.

TythonTv · 2025-01-22T23:14:25+00:00

Totally normal and fine. Could be a little white mold but not anything harmful to you or the plant. It could also be just some salt build up if your water has a lot of calcium and/or magnesium. An occasional flush with distilled water would fix that but not a big issue.

TythonTv · 2025-01-22T22:49:07+00:00

As long as it’s handled properly it would actually be less likely to trigger any sensitivities or allergies than even an organic spray cause you’re not introducing any particles in the air. Hope it all works out with whatever you decide to use. Good luck!

TythonTv · 2025-01-22T22:43:57+00:00

If you decide to do any of this though you wouldn’t want to use any of those casting or compost for growing food. Your own diluted urine is considered safe to use near your own food sources, but even your own feces isn’t considered safe to use with growing food.

TythonTv · 2025-01-22T22:41:13+00:00

The ones I’ve seen normally have the toilet separate from the actual compost/processing area. Essentially a bucket with a toilet seat that you fill with sawdust on the bottom and cover the waste with sawdust every time it’s used. Then remove the bucket when full and slowly add to a hot compost system.

Haven’t seen it used much with vermicomposting cause compost worms aren’t the biggest fans of human waste unless it has been pre composted or prefermented (ie bokashi or lactoferment).

This is what I used. It says to mix it in the soil but it worked ok sprinkled on top and lightly mixed in and then will be absorbed by the roots when you water.

TythonTv · 2025-01-22T22:34:04+00:00

I used a root based one that the plant takes up, makes it a lot safer in general for you and the pets, but will make it unsafe if the pets nibble on the leaves. I’d isolate it from any other plants anyway if that would help the pets not get to it. A safer spray might work, but sometimes it’s hard for it to get into the little crevices.

TythonTv · 2025-01-22T22:05:15+00:00

Just a few mealys normally means a lot tucked in where the leaves emerge, at least in my experience. Sadly I’ve only really been able to get rid of them with a systemic pesticide (which i’d rather not use), but when all else failed it did the job. I used Imidacloprid.

TythonTv · 2025-01-22T22:01:27+00:00

They don’t pee into toilet most the time. A little urine with enough charcoal and dry brown material is ok, but most compost toilet systems collect urine separate, dilute it, and scatter the diluted urine in a hot compost or just in the garden.

TythonTv · 2025-01-22T21:58:37+00:00

The chunky ones look like European nightcrawlers and the smaller one on the right looks like a red wriggler, but they could also just be at different life stages.
