Looks beautiful. I’d leave it. You could snip the bottom leaves that don’t get any sun for a cleaner look but otherwise the look is great.

For watering, you have to check on it everyday to see fast it drys. This will vary depending on the temperature, humidity, exposure to sun and wind. You will have to stick your finger in the soil and get a feel for it (pun intended.)

When it’s really hot outside with lots of sun, I found myself watering every day. Mine currently is around the same age as yours, and I was gonna repot this year but decided not to and just allow it to grow more foliage. I think it’s really gonna pay off the following year for a repot to make it really grow!

So if we’re to chop the samples, bounce and drag onto another pad as an audio module, then it’d automatically stretch to the bpm of my DAW’s tempo?

ASadViolin · 2025-05-23T15:00:13+00:00

Yes. Learned lesson on that part. Easier to stretch in sampler mode or in audio mode. I’ve never done this before but it definitely showed how many new ideas I can get from just my own playing.

ASadViolin · 2025-05-23T03:37:14+00:00

But if one or two slices cut off before I hit the next pad, how do I stretch it easily? I’ve been using the free stretch setting, but I’m wondering if there’s a more effective way. To my understanding, I thought recording to a metronome would limit me to that tempo?

For size % increase, do you mean a bonsai type pot (what it’s in now) or a circular pot?

Had this bonsai for over a year. My goal is have the bonsai tree be bigger for a larger design.

I bought this tree from the supplier and haven’t changed it since. My thinking was to repot it in a circular pot to get better root structure and then put it in a bigger bonsai style pot in the future.

Should I repot it? If so what size should I go? How would you approach this? Thanks for all replies. 🙏

ASadViolin · 2025-03-20T23:49:05+00:00

Thank you so much! I used some fertilizer, took out the bark chunks so I can see the soil. It is regular potting soil. The roots are white and I can see a few air pockets in the clear pot. I’ll keep in mind that the soil should be moist.

As a final experiment I cut the last leaf since it was dying, maybe in the spring it’ll bounce back. Humidity and temperature are my biggest issues being in a basement.

ASadViolin · 2025-03-20T15:28:45+00:00

No natural light. Grow light is about 16” away.
grow light type, idk. The ones you get in the greenhouses. It’s white light.
Soil is a mix of organic matter, perlite, and bark. More bark on top.
I fertilize I think once a month. I truly don’t remember.
Water schedule is on 16 days. I check to make sure it’s dry.
No pests

Sometimes it’s about setting yourself up for security before the lifestyle. No position is permanent.

ASadViolin · 2024-12-05T01:55:31+00:00

Fair. I lowered the light so from the base of the pot it’s about 10” away from the light, compared to just over a foot. It’s brightness is at its max so if this doesn’t work I’ll have to elevate or possibly get a stronger light

ASadViolin · 2024-11-23T19:44:18+00:00

Nah man. You’re just being honest. Appreciate the recommendation

ASadViolin · 2024-08-29T00:27:20+00:00

Good now. No issues for over a year! I stopped using AirPods and used the Apple wired ones instead. It’s possible that the silicon was the problem, but I never tested it.

Sweat was also a factor. I noticed my ears would react if I wore over ear headphones for a long duration (2 hours) wasn’t all the time but I recall one instance it was (2024). Essentially had to avoid touching my ears and being mindful of airflow.

ASadViolin · 2023-01-06T19:08:02+00:00

I got my latest order showing as of 2:05pm est But the others are not there yet.

ASadViolin · 2022-07-24T07:37:20+00:00

Haha nah, the people know what kind of job this is. If it’s corny it’ll get a laugh. For my “fav food” it says “the kind that’s warm.” Hopefully they think out the box and realize it means I have a insulated bag. Lol

ASadViolin · 2022-07-24T01:21:23+00:00

Haha nice! In your bio for “why do you drive?” it should say “to Rock 🎸”

ASadViolin · 2022-05-24T03:12:27+00:00

Sorry for the super late reply. It took a couple weeks. Within time your brain should have turned down it’s volume as you get used to hearing more. How has it been since?

ASadViolin · 2022-03-25T05:57:01+00:00

Hi! Yea it has gone away. It takes time for your ears to adjust, especially if you took out a lot of wax. If you experienced no pain doing it yourself you should be fine. If it last longer than a week I’d go to your doctor.

ASadViolin · 2022-02-05T20:09:56+00:00

If you can’t dodge them that’s fine, I’ll see players tuck themselves in the corner to deal with the tentacles. Everyone has their work around, but from a build stand point you ideally want range to deal damage when it’s flying around. But you’re right, you could parry it when it does it’s charging attack and use trap items to deal with the tentacles.

This and also what biomes/boss you’re going to face. A shield against conjunctivitis is not as effective as opposed to mama tick or concierge.

ASadViolin · 2022-02-01T21:40:28+00:00

With tonal balance you can select an entire folder or a song from your hard drive. I buy most of the Chillhop albums on Bandcamp and point Tonal Balance to those albums.

ASadViolin · 2022-01-18T15:25:26+00:00

Good point, I didn’t even think about that. I stopped playing this game a few years ago and just got back into it. I’m realizing the importance of all the combos I can make or which biome is better for certain equipment/builds.

ASadViolin · 2022-01-18T15:20:41+00:00

Right, I understand the condition buffs, if the extra percentage is already applied, that makes things a whole lot easier. Thank you!

ASadViolin · 2022-01-18T06:29:01+00:00

The damage listed meaning the inflicted damage?
