Yup

Wait.. Is there even an orchid there? I'm so stupid.

There are three orchid plants - from left to right: orange, purple, white - but, the white plant doesn't have any flowers on. It flowered early, so the flowers died off and I cut the stem down. XD

Remove all of the affected leaves ^

;-; That's like the whole plant. But, I don't want fungus there. I'll cut it down tomorrow, then I can take the mouldy leaves off of our fruit trees.
Thank you, BTW.

No problem Unfortunately it's all you can really do.

You had me thinking I was going blind

Veg and Fruits:

Peas.

Strawberries.

Redcurrants.

Taiberries.

Pears.

Apples.

Beans.

Cherries.

And, BLUEBERRIES?! I thought the blueberry plant was dead, so?! @-@ I don't even know what they are... Fingers crossed that they're blueberries. XD


Also:

This is apparently a mallow plant, and it's taken over half of my aviary - which, I don't mind, because it hides the ducks.
But, there's some sort of fungi on the leaves? What can I do? @-@

Sorry to pop in. But that looks like scale. They're an organism not a fungus. You may need to do more than just remove the leaves.

No worries, Nicky. :3
;-; Like dig up the plant?

 

[NickyKnack]

Here's white scale infesting a tree.

 

[NickyKnack]

To control scale, prune and dispose of infested branches, twigs and leaves.

If scale numbers are low, they may be rubbed or picked off of the plant by hand.

Also you can dab individual pests with an alcohol soaked cotton swab or neem-based Leaf shine will also work if infestations are light.

Okay, I'll do that. Thank you, Nicky.

Do you think it'll spread to any of my other plants?

Hey guys, I'm just curious how tall all of you are. I was talking to a friend and he said I was pretty tall, but in my family I'm fairly average (5'8), my aunt is 5'11 and my uncle is 6'4, even my two younger cousins are taller than me. :/ what do you consider tall?

I'm 5'8. So anyone above 6' is taller, considered to me . All my friends are shorter compared to me, so I get how they're amazed when they see how tall I am.
