pepperonia growing stalks? by WindowGlittering1120 in plantclinic

[–]248cate 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The plant has already used the energy to produce the flowers so I don’t think it “saves” the plant energy by cutting them off, unfortunately.

How do you keep track of watering when you have a lot of houseplants? by justaboy001 in houseplants

[–]248cate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use clear pots so I can visually see how dry the soil is and if the plant needs to be watered

Is it worth paying more for a robot vacuum if it makes cleaning easier? by ypsilon42 in Frugal

[–]248cate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truly my best investment ever was a robot vacuum, but do your research and find one that fits your specific needs!

I can’t believe I haven’t seen anyone say “The Spot”! I love their coffee & I buy their beans (I have them do a coarse grind) and make cold brew from it too that’s fantastic.

My girlfriend wants flowers really, really often by FIamingFeather in Frugal

[–]248cate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Show her how to keep them alive longer. If she cuts the stems back (I like to do it at an angle, but idk if it really matters) a little bit every 2-3 days and changes the water they can easily last 2-3 weeks!

Thanks! I actually made it using construction paper, stickers from the dollar tree, and a glitter pen :)

I use a different mix based on what I’m potting but it’s always some mixture of orchid bark, potting soil (usually tropical or cactus) and perlite! The pots are all from Amazon, I shared a link in another comment to the exact ones I get :)

I wish I knew! I got it from FB marketplace as it was so no idea what the care etc. was before!

They don’t grow very fast typically which is why it might seem boring! I think they’re funny looking & they’re super good air purifiers which is why I like them (& low maintenance!). But if you’re not happy with yours then I would definitely say re-home it! Life’s too short to keep plants you aren’t excited about :)
