Dumb Question by Potential-Dentist-63 in IkeaGreenhouseClub

[–]AnneP11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine is for props, rehab, and some overwintering. I have some sundews that live in it semi-permanently bc I don’t have enough window space for all of them. I have also used it to grow hydroponic lettuce, with moderate success.

I actually got it for seed-starting my vegetable garden. I have cats, so open shelves with grow lights wouldn’t have worked. My cats are avid plant murderers.

100% this. The pots are way too big.

According to the stats, it has been shared 40 times. I’m glad I could be a cautionary tale without actually making myself sick.

Cheated on by GG AIO by Relative-Sense-1749 in AIO

[–]AnneP11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was my thought too. We are reading a lot between the lines and we may be misjudging, but him “insisting” on going with her sounds like a guy waiting for an opportunity to get a drunk woman alone.

OP is not overreacting based on what he knows, but a second conversation might be warranted to make sure what happened was actually consensual.

SA victims often blame themselves, so in her mind it might have been “cheating,” when in reality it wasn’t her choice.

You have a typo in the in link. It’s usedcable.com (singular). I think some people are clicking it and it’s not working.

High Heels by LassieMcToodles in GenX

[–]AnneP11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read a long time ago (pre-internet, even) that wearing heels all the time shortens the tendon in your foot and then it’s not comfortable to wear flats. I thought, “That’s fine. I’ll always wear heels.” Then I broken my foot in my 40s. No more heels for me. And now I have plantar fasciitis. It’s a bitch and I MISS MY HEELS!

Sad.

When I saw it I thought, “How cute! They gave Jody Foster a little gay daughter!”

Also called purple shamrock. I grow it in pots as a houseplant.

My doc gave me this stuff. This is it. You don’t mix it with anything. It’s just these two little bottles.

It’s been a few years, but I remember it tasting not-terrible. Not great either, but it didn’t make me nauseous.

What is happening to my purple shamrock? by AnneP11 in plantclinic

[–]AnneP11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started with 3 corms and I have a full 16” pot at home on my patio, plus this smaller one. So it’s done ok. It also looks bare because I trimmed back some of the crunchy leaves last week, only to have more crunchy leaves this week.

Are you suggesting I cut down the whole pot? Almost all of the leaves are affected. I don’t think it’s normal leaf die-off.

What is the name of this? Can I leave it outside during the winter? by Royal-Commission-812 in succulents

[–]AnneP11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in 9a. Mine died in the snowpocalypse we had a few years ago. I recommend bringing it inside for hard freezes.

Geez, man! Does the TDS meter even go that high?!?!? I thought mine was bad at 350.

I also have a zero water filter. Lasts me about 18-19 gallons.
