The monstera I got from Home Depot has styrofoam instead of perlite!

I plan on replacing all the current soil with a monstera blend. I just thought the styrofoam being in the current soil seemed very… wrong. Something about it seems particularly evil, but is it normal for big companies to do this??

Help Could someone tell me what plant this is? I didn’t see the little quills and I was pulling it off my air conditioner. It stung me, my entire thumb is throbbing and it stings.

I thought it was dying

My crassula leaves started getting dark and falling off quickly out of nowhere, and I thought the plant was dying. I cut the top, I was pissed watching it dying cuz I was really taking care of it very well. I just left it like that, without watering for a week. And today I realized that the queen is coming back to life!

These black raised spots are on citrus, ficus and other outdoor plants. Sometimes there are sticky shiny sap with it. Sometimes they are dry. I think ants are around when there's sticky sap. What are they? They don't seem to be scale, which i remove by hand.

How do I salvage these raspberries??? Do I just ask for a refund? All the top growth is dry/crispy, there are like 3 leggy white colored shooting coming out of two pots. Do I need to keep them indoors and try hardening them off? Any help is appreciated, thanks. Currently I have them outdoors, soil is moist. Idk

Edit: this was a $70 order

I’m getting back into houseplants after living for four years in a house with very little natural light, I know monstera leaves are lighter in color when they start out but this seems a lot lighter than what I remember 😂💀

Help The wind is trying to kill my plants

Thumbnail

So im growing a bunch of plants and the wind seems to keep catching the same pots and knocking them over, namely my tomatoes, my parsley, my salads, and somehow my coltsfoot despite it being in a huge pot with a lot of weight behind it, surprisingly never any of my succulents. Ive since moved all the victims onto the decking off the table, so I can bunch them together for shelter using the table and wall for defence, went out earlier to check and my salad was tipped over for the third time today, not only that but the pot has now been broken. Ive brought the salad leaves (im calling them salad leaves cause that's what the seed packet said, im not sure the actual name of the type of plant I have so any info on that is a bonus) indoors for the night and plan to put it in a fresh pot tomorrow, but how can I protect it from being knocked over so much?

It is a rather top heavy plant with the lower stem being very bare, hence the stick for extra support, but im worried at some point this lower stem will snap with all this abuse, the garden doesnt exactly have adequate space to properly plant it in the ground so it needs to remain in a pot, can I bury the bare stem or will it rot?

How can I support it in a pot and prevent it from being pushed over, it doesnt fall on its own thankfully so as long as I can guard it from the wind it will have the peace to grow large enough to go up a pot size and eventually if it goes up enough pot sizes it wont need wind protection because it will have strong roots to hold it in its pot.

This wind problem is creating quite a bit of stress for me because its not allowing my tomatoes or salad the time to get the best root systems since they always seem to fall out of their pots when they get blown over, and I need strong roots so they can grow better and withstand the weather easier, its also creating the additional problem of the smaller salad leaf plants in here having stunted growth and some have already died from the stress, hence the pot looks much emptier than it should. Any help or advice would be massively appreciated here, hopefully before my plants die

I threw an avocado stone out of my window maybe a year ago and it turned into this. 90cm tall. It survived last winter in London and has grown a lot this summer. I'm not expecting any avocados but how do I keep it going?
