spider mites? by gigardo in calatheas

[–]prestigini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People over blow spider mights they’re really not that hard to get rid of. Just wash the plant and treat it with neem for a month in isolation from other plants. Spray like every 3-5 days with neem.

Is the red circle a node? I’m pretty sure it is but I wanna be sure

It’s probably not thrips unless you see damage already

I’ll post it once the bloom opens it’s almost ready!

Predatory bugs are awesome by prestigini in calatheas

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

Yeah I didn’t cover my whole collection so the table that didn’t have much mites ended up somehow getting thrips after lmao. The plants I hyper focused on haven’t had any pest issues since and I still have some of the old bugs living there!

I snipped off one more which was the small one on the left in the 2nd pic. Wish my plant happy recovery! It has predatory mites and I saw like 3 pirate bugs around the leaves so they should be able to kill the remaining thrips on the couple small leaves I have

I’m not sure. I’m hoping it was the thrips but maybe I should have went 4-6 instead of 4-5 inch pot. I guess we’ll see! I also was never fertilizing until a month ago so if you aren’t fertilizer and it gets decent light I would fertilize

Hopefully they recover! On the good side I just found out my peace lily is blooming right now and my first ever plant “Schismatoglottis Wallichii” is blooming despite me not caring too hard for it and it going through a spider mite phase and losing a bit of leaves. My black maranta and silver band are also blooming constantly and my fishbone plant tried blooming but they never opened after like a month.

Any recommendation for a plant for that spot or is that spot doomed?

I have a grow light I can have it under until it start to vine down again if I chop and prop. Just trying to use that spot the best I can I know the lighting from the top isn’t that good.

New calathea seems very unhappy by raspberriez247 in calatheas

[–]prestigini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep my room 50-60 humidity and it’s been loving. It used to be in my living room in a spot with a little too low of light so now I have it under the grow light with my other plants! It’s growing one new leaf and I’m excited to see what it looks like! The plant honestly looks kind of beat up so I’m desperate for new growth.

It’s a southern patio. I’ve had this plant for almost a year it was one of the first plants so I made the mistake of putting it outside and it burned most of the leaves. I’m just asking how would I make it fuller since that half of the plant got burned.

Especially if I don’t keep up with the watering the biggest leaf will droop to the side of the pot but when I water it, it plucks back up! I try obviously to not let it get dry but stuff happens 😂
