I love my plants dealry but can't figure out what they need or want. There are very green and look great, however some of there leaves have yellow tips or are turning yellow. What does this mean? Is it from being over waterd, lack of water or do they need fertlizer? I would love any suggestions. My poor plants need it. ;) Thanks!

my plant at home that is having the problem is a lily plant. Its not in direct sun, but has access to light. I water them once a week, not excessivley though. The liliy actually has bloomed, its just the tips of the leaves turn yellow. I have an office plant that is doing the same. It doesn't flower, but it doesn't like the direct light either. Its called a Ficus Bonsai. Not sure what to do.

I would encourage you to take pictures or the plant to a local nursery for expert visual-based advice. Discoloring in the tips suggests salt to me (it first manifests in the leaf tips) but it's usually more of a 'burn' than yellowing.

Depending on how yellow the tips are, it can be within the norm for a lilly. If it is a true lilly, such as a casablanca, stargazer or asiatic, they tend to do that, for whatever reason. If it is a "tiger" lilly (the really small ones) then there is a problem.

The person on this board that knows THE MOST about plants is Shirley! She can tell you about almost any plant there is. Jen and I depended upon her advice for the entire growing season two years ago!!

I'll try to remember her board name -- will contact a few people to find out, and you can PM her. She is AMAZING!!

Hi,

Depending on the type of Lily, it will most likely go into dormancy for the winter. If it's a Stargazer bulb, for instance, it will most likely begin to yellow and then will look like it's dying. Don't cut it ! Let the leaves die off. This is important for photosynthesis and a nice plant next year. This is a good time for fertilizer. Then, let the stem(s) die off without assistance by you. In October or so, provided that it totally dies off, you may be able to tug the stem out. It kind of depends on your climate how you choose to deal with the bulb or not come winter. Regardless, it should pop up again in the Spring.

Ours are only beginning to open the flowers now (specifically Stargazers)

      Are Gluten-Free Processed Foods Making You Sick? (+Video)

      This article came at an important time for me. I suffered an entire year with unilateral neuropathy (nerve pain). It was finally a physiotherapist who discussed my diet with me. She knew her stuff! She asked me what I had for breakfast every day. I said, avocado toast. She said that the avocado was good but that the toast was devoid of nutrients, and was...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      High fiber can definitely cause sudden GI distress especially if it’s a new addition but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom log and introducing new gluten-free foods one at a time can really help you spot the pattern. This is really helpful I had not considered sugar alcohols or inulin as triggers. Thanks f...

Thiamax (TTFD) plus a B-complex, and if you want benfotiamine, the Life Extension formula covers that at ~100 mg.

The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.
