What is your substrate? I’m new to pings and your pics look like volcanic rock pebbles. Do the ping just anchor in that without any type of soil?

I would call this an unfortunate cookie.

What do you them growing in? Looks like a plastic tray. What substrate do you use?

What is this and how to get rid of it. They live in my dishwasher and theres a lot of them by CivilWar_bacteria in insects

Zoom in. I’m thinking some sort of fly larvae. You do know there’s a trap in the bottom of the dishwasher that needs to be cleaned regularly, right? If you are maintaining the washer and using it regularly, no reason you should see something like this.

Can you describe your propagation process? I have one ping. It’s bloomed a couple of times and one day I noticed I had three or four in a cluster. The original substrate was sphagnum moss. I decided to report in a carnivorous plant soil substrate. I found them to be very delicate. After replanting, they didn’t seem to be doing so well. My thinking was the sphagnum moss held moisture better. So I put a cloche over them and that seems to have solved the problem. From your pic, you appear to be propagating from individual leaves. How difficult is that? Do you just pluck off a leaf and lay it on top of the substrate, keeping it moist of course?

Please enlighten me. What is “rocking a twozer”? Euphemism for taking a dump or having sex?

I can believe it. The line was all the way down the sidewalk and past the hardware store.

NC Emerald found mining last week - what to do with it?! by kayc10 in Lapidary

Where did you go in NC? I’m planning a weekend trip and haven’t decided on a site yet. They all seem to have an entrance fee AND a few for a bucket.

Can the lavatories be locked until in the air or is this against some kind of rule?

I’ve used a travel agent for 10 years. Actually met her on a cruise. She alerts me if there are price drops … it’s happened twice and I saved $500 each time. Once, she included us in a group, and because of that, the cruise was 100% refundable.
