I spent the whole day sorting toys, games, art supplies, and Christmas decorations that had piled up in this room. Now it looks halfway descent. Also set up my new mini grow light I received in the #secretplantysanta24 . It’s under a shelf, to the left of the main light so you can’t really tell it’s there. All I know is I need more lights! 😅 #HappyPlants #WinterTipsAndTricks #NEPAGregGang #theamigos #ADHDPLANTLOVERS #ADHDrabbithole #OrchidLovers #Hoya #Syngonium #Aglaonema #HowToBeatTheWinterBluesWithPlants

Is this common for aglaonema? This is my second aglaonema that I just repotted yesterday. I come home today to see this stalk leaning against the edge of its pot and is somewhat loose. I’m concerned that the stalk will snap in half like it did to my first, which has yet to recover. What should I do to prevent it from snapping? Did plant it too high up? Should the soil cover up to the light fleshy part of the stem? First pic is my first aglaonema and the second is my new one. Thank you all! #Aglaonema #ChineseEvergreen #help

Not sure if I should water it on the schedule #Aglaonema hi. I’m following the app for watering but the water meter is still in the moist area. Should I still water it today? I’m new to plants and think I may have measured the pot size wrong. Please help! #HappyPlants

#Aglaonema #ChineseEvergreen #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #GregGang #PlantTherapy #PlantAddict I have since received some more new Aglaonema plants and they are so BEAUTIFUL. I also have some small starters that I put in terrariums and am propagating cuttings from ones that I’ve had for a while now.

Help! #Aglaonema I’m so confused what happened with this plant. I have so many of this type and they’re generally forgiving. But the leaves are dying left and right. I cut off bad roots the other day and she’s just not doing well. Any tips? I think I’m gonna have to really do surgery on this one today 😂

Spots on leaves I wondering what could be causing these spots on my aglaonema. Is it too much water, fungus, low humidity or something else like needing to be repotted. It’s confusing since she’s flowering right now. No noticeable pests. #Question #Aglaonema #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #HappyPlants #NewPlantMom

Help! How do i fix this? #Aglaonema #help #ChineseEvergreen I was out of the house for one day and i had left my curtains open. I have a north facing window but usually i’m able to move this chinese evergreen away from the direct light before it hits it, but since i was gone, it mustve been baking in the sun. I come home to see this—droopy, curling leaves! How can i help him bounce back to the happy plant he was merely a day ago??

My plant died, but I tried finding some of the core roots that I may be able to salvage. Any suggestions or would you think this is useless at this point? #Aglaonema
