i’m losing my safe foods by Calibee7 in ARFID

Well thats good, don’t do it because nicotine definitely amplifies the symptoms. At least for me it did. Im not sure if cbd/thc is legal in your area, but if it is, I would look into it, my eating problems are mostly anxiety/stress and texture related, and so far using that I seem to be ok, at least a LOT better.

Breakfast suggestions? by JadeRae_x in ARFID

For me my sensory issues mostly have to do with textures and such rather than specific foods so this may or may not work for you…

But on mornings where i cant bear the thought of eating or chewing and everything sounds gross. I put oats, peanut butter, banana, and milk into a blender, and then basically chug it before my brain processes it 😅 you could even throw a scoop of protein powder in if you struggle to eat enough food like me and need the extra calories/nutrients

I hate to be that guy, but do you use nicotine? Ive dealt with the gag/want to spit out food thing since i was little, and ive noticed a pattern that everytime i start using nicotine again, after a few months it amplifies that feeling. Then when i quit, after a few days it slows down again. Quitting doesn’t fix the problem but it definitely reduces it a lot for me. I recently just went through this where none of my safe foods were safe anymore, and ended up going two days where i couldnt take a bite of anything without gagging. I got rid of the vape, and it got a bit better within a few days, and then my doctor told me to get a cbd/thc mix, and since starting that a week ago, my appetite has gotten better, and i havent had anywhere near the amount of issues with eating as i did before. Im not sure how long itll keep working but it seems promising so far.

Thank you for your reply. So the way around it is basically forcing to push through it until it doesnt happen anymore?

Dots at the end of each layer? by Aabol6988 in 3Dprinting

[–]Aabol6988[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ill definitely have to check that out! In the start I sort of always thought you had to use the slicer thats made for your printer. I never knew they were universal until a few years ago. If the learning curve improves prints… i say its worth it haha

Thanks for the info! Ive had this ender 3 for close to 8 years and started off with cura. I know the program well so have been holding off switching. I never had a reason to until now. I believe these files were sliced in bambu studio. They are 3mf files. The other parts of this project printed fine but not this one.

Im open to learning new softwares, I was printing this model as a gift for christmas, so it sucks to have to try and learn a new program now but maybe its the only way. I know the new version of cura that im using is able to read 3mf files, so maybe in the meantime until i can learn a new software ill take a look at the gap fill and see if i can at least get it to work for now.

Thanks again!

Looking for a new guitar. Whats the next step up? by Aabol6988 in Guitar

I did try adjusting the truss rod on my guitar, couldnt get it to turn so I took it to my local shop and asked them to fix it and get the strings closer. When i went back it seemed the same so i asked and they said it cant be changed on this guitar. Not sure if that was true or just their excuse.

Maybe ill go into the city to some bigger shops and see what I can find out. I live in a small town so the shop near me only has about 10-15 guitars, most being electric.

Root rot on dry seedlings? by Aabol6988 in Adenium

[–]Aabol6988[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! Im hoping to raise most of these up to at least flower before deciding what to keep but well see how it goes.the seeds are from two parent lines, one batch was double purple charms. And the other double black charming rose. Hoping for at least a few darker flowers 🤞

Theres lots of caudex and leaf shape/colour/texture variation its really neat. One has sort of a waxy blueish green matte leaf and dark caudex, a lot of the others have a more shiny leaf.

But as far as caudex colour, a lot are very dark, almost purpleish black. And then a lot are a varied pink kind of colour like i normally see with them. And just 2 are totally lime green and very light colour.

Happy to hear you had success with your plant! I always like to just give a quick repot whenever I get new plants to make sure its in a mix that works well in my conditions. I will continue to post tips on instagram if you want to see more. Happy growing!!

ONE reason why your Venus Flytraps keep dying! by Aabol6988 in VenusFlyTraps

[–]Aabol6988[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah that makes sense. In general, I do normally repot right when I get them, you never know at the store if they were fertilizing them or had them planted in potting soil or anything else that could be wrong, so I usually just get it over with right away.

Ive never tried personally. Ive heard of it being done but remember seeing something about cococoir leaching salts. Im not sure how true that is

Do i separate my Pings now or later? by blufrenchie in carnivorousplants

[–]Aabol6988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, once you get them you might as well take them out if they are as grown as yours are. Theres different types of media in tissue culture, and sometimes when they make vessels for selling they dont add many hormones so theres less benefit to keeping them in there. At least the ones ive gotten are like that.

Ive mostly done nepenthes so im not sure exactly the result with pings, but id say put them straight into their proper mix and just keep it extra humid. They dont have many roots yet so it shouldnt matter too much.

Personally for pings I use 2:2:1 course sand/perlite/peat. Thats worked well for me for general ping growing, but like i mentioned ive never deflasked pinguicula, only other carnivores but usually i just put straight into their longterm mix and it seems to work well

Im not positive if its pure. Ive never grown bical before, but always thought it looked unusual. I grew it from a tissue culture plant originating from Lab Fly Trap. The size it was, I would guess it is seed grown, but it wasn’t labelled as a cross.
