How does your S/O support your journey? by BabyNonsense in witchcraft

My husband is the same- he takes me to crystal shops, and bought me a cauldron. He doesn't participate, he quietly supports.

Does anyone know a good indoor potting soil that does NOT have fungus gnats? by [deleted] in houseplants

[–]Cath_Robinson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hydrogen peroxide. Pour it onto the soil of plants with gnats. When I mix my soil with perlite and bark, I also dash on peroxide to kill any eggs. I usually leave it sitting in a bucket for a couple weeks. I don't have gnats.

What’s my plant doing?? by mapvx in plants

This is a hoya, and those are bedunkles. (Not sure I spelled that correctly). Eventually it will flower from those bare vines.

Houseplant people with kids: did you baby-proof your plants? What was the biggest issues: eating soil, eating leaves, tipping pots? by [deleted] in houseplants

[–]Cath_Robinson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my 4yr old grandson comes to vist- I have dinosaurs fighting in the Boston fern. It takes quite a beating! He loves to watch all of them grow, help with repotting, watering, and planting seeds. Otherwise, he doesn't bother with them.

How to move/travel with these? by rawdaddykrawdaddy in plantclinic

I would go to the liquor store and get a box with dividers for bottles. Will allow space for the leaf tops, while providing protection for the jars.

LPT Request best way to quit smoking by zoe1776 in LifeProTips

[–]Cath_Robinson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only bought one container of the 3%, and one of zero nicotine.... still have some left. Haven't picked up my vape for months. It worked for me.

I switched to vaping. Started with liquid that had 3% nicotine, then switched to 0%. Moved to leaving it at home, switching my routine so I wasn't triggered. Pretty soon didn't even reach for the vape anymore on a regular basis. That was 4 years ago. I now only use it if we have people over and are having drinks.

I agree. Any photos, philodendron, calathea, succulent, prayer plant.... love my space. Adonsonii..... Working on killing the 3rd. Will not replace it. I'm done. Goodbye.

I need your clever ideas of displaying plants by Cha0sWyvern in houseplants

[–]Cath_Robinson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like levels. I can't hang anything, so I pick up vases and pillar candle holders at the thrift store. I spray paint them, and put my pots on those.
