🔎 Observe before you treat

Be a plant health detective.

Work through a few simple observations to explore possible causes and decide what to check next—without pretending one symptom proves a diagnosis.

What are you noticing?

Answer what you can. Unknown is a useful answer too.

This checklist is educational guidance, not a definitive diagnosis. Do not apply treatments until you have identified the likely cause.

Observe first. Treat second.

Choose a symptom and share what you know. You'll get possible explanations, checks that help narrow them down, and safe next steps.

  • Multiple possible causes, not a guess dressed up as certainty
  • Simple checks you can do with your plant
  • Low-risk actions before stronger treatments
