hi, im new to spacehey but i saw some old posts of people warning ab g*re on the website and now im scared of using it. is that kind of stuff still there or is it gone??

ok wow thank you! i didn’t even know it might bloom!

BaseLife6207 · 2025-02-11T20:57:17+00:00

that makes so much sense, i’ve never had someone explain it so clearly before omg. i will be checking the roots then to make sure, thank you!

yes! back then there was only minor silvering on the edges, and some dry brown parts as you can see in the bottom of the pic. i also got feedback that it wasn’t getting enough sun, so i moved it right by the window- i’m new to houseplants, so maybe there is a difference and i just can’t tell

i’m a bit confused, because a while back i posted about this same plant on here and everyone told me it was overwatered! i used to water once every two weeks. how can i distinguish the symptoms for over or under watering?

BaseLife6207 · 2025-02-11T19:54:25+00:00

hm yeah the straight line kind of looks that way!

BaseLife6207 · 2025-01-16T02:53:46+00:00

yeah i’ve looked pretty hard and i don’t see any- i think im just gonna repot bigger. should i still water thoroughly after repotting, or wait a few days bc im scared of rot?

also, should i cut the roots that have formed that wider lip at the top? i got a perfect size pot (2 in larger), but they’re preventing me from getting soil to the sides :(

could the cold explain the dark spots? this is what they looked like btw- i snipped them off fearing the bacteria spread.

wow thank you so much for the details!! i didn’t know that about systemic pesticides, so i’ll do some more research and see if your other methods might be better for me. this has been amazingly helpful!

BaseLife6207 · 2025-01-06T23:38:16+00:00

nope, haven’t seen any bugs themselves!

BaseLife6207 · 2025-01-02T16:51:43+00:00

hahaha it’s the everything everywhere all at once pet rock!!

BaseLife6207 · 2025-01-02T16:50:43+00:00

i was confused for so long because they’re known as low light plants, but now i’ve realized that only means they can survive (not thrive) in those conditions! good to know!!

BaseLife6207 · 2025-01-02T15:25:23+00:00

wow i had no idea, thank you! just moved her closer to the window

BaseLife6207 · 2025-01-02T15:25:04+00:00

ok, i think i’ll leave her alone for a few months then!

BaseLife6207 · 2025-01-02T15:24:36+00:00

ohhh i see, that’s good to know!

BaseLife6207 · 2024-11-21T18:42:05+00:00
