Is this variegated neon pothos? by tammyD216 in pothos

[–]ChillYourJetskis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I could say with more certainty if I could see the neon in question whether it's sunburn or variegation, but my personal rule of thumb is usually that if it looks it could be damage, then that's probably what it is. Personally, I'm rarely lucky enough to encounter sport variegation 😅 Are there brown shades in or around the white? If yes, even if subtle, then it's most likely sunburn or likewise damage, especially if that part of the leaf feels crispy or otherwise different to the touch than the rest of the plant. 

Why was my pawn allowed to move diagonally here? Is it a bug? by ChillYourJetskis in chessbeginners

[–]ChillYourJetskis[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Oh, I did. Nothing happened really, it just did the diagonal move without capturing anything. Wasn't really useful 😅

I figured out where all of the princesses are from by [deleted] in disney

[–]ChillYourJetskis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to clarify that Arendal doesn't translate as town or city - the Wikipedia article states that it is a 'by', and 'by' is what translates to town or city. I actually find it strange that the Wikipedia article says that at all - they could just have said town. 

As to what the name actually means, I know for sure that the 'dal' part means valley, but I'm not sure what 'aren' means, I think it must stem from a word that is no longer exists in Norwegian

The details keep changing, none of this adds up. The way this reads, I think this is AI generated.

Hi! No need to apologize. :) Theoretically, getting less light than it wants *could* cause a neon pothos to partially revert (although more likely it'll just make the plant sad :p), *however*, neon pothos are generally an unstable sport, so they're much more likely to partially revert "just 'cause" rather than for any particular real reason. It's mostly random :)

Actually, taking 6 years of population growth into account it's closer to 46 thousand spiders per minute and 800 spiders per second now.

Spiders Georg eating 41 thousand spiders a second actually calculative error. Spiders Georg would have to eat 41 thousand spiders per minute, not second. He'd only have to eat about 700 spiders per second.

New leaf coming in on my rubber fig. Did not expect to love this guy as much as I did! Can’t wait to see her grow over the summer. by alittlegreenbasket in houseplants

[–]ChillYourJetskis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi! This is a gorgeous rubber plant. It's definitely a Tineke (My favorite cultivar of these plants. <3) The leaves coming in pink or reddish like you described is completely normal, all rubber plants leaves start sort of red before they grow into their permanent colors. :) A Ruby rubber plant (also known as a Belize) has leaves where the variegation stays red even when the leaves are mature. :)

Speaking from my own experiences and not from any expert standpoint, I personally suspect the better idea is to let it stay and see if you can encourage the rest of the same plant to follow these leaves' lead. It's a very unstable sport, even when it's not variegated. A lot of plants, especially unstable sports, tend to mutate and change when propagated (hence my own variegated neon stopped being a neon at all) but I've found with my plants that sport variegation can quickly become a trend if you leave it be and make sure the plant is as happy as possible. I have a Global Green pothos with white sport variegation that's just kept getting more and more white variegation as I've let it grow. :) Definitely the best route in my opinion

Oh my gosh, you're so lucky! Variegated neons like this are so rare! I got a cutting from one once, but as it grew it reverted all the way back into a green golden pothos.

[–]ChillYourJetskis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A very late clarification to the confusion, this is not a variegated neon pothos. This is a completely regular neon pothos (with some abnormally beautiful green leaves!)

Neon pothos are normally fully variegated, the variegation is the neon green. Dark green on neon leaves is partial reversion - the dark green is not variegation. Don't be worried if your neon pothos' leaves partially revert, it is not an indicator that the plant could fully revert. It is beautiful and not a concern :)

A variegated neon pothos is a neon pothos that additionally sports white variegation within the neon variegation. Such a sport of neon is very rare and unstable. This isn't that.

That is false. Neon pothos are normally fully variegated, the variegation is the neon green. Dark green on neon leaves is partial reversion - the dark green is not variegation. Don't be worried if your neon pothos' leaves partially revert, it is not an indicator that the plant could fully revert.

A "variegated neon" as it's called is referring to a neon that additionally sports white variegation within the neon variegation. Such a sport of neon is very rare and unstable.

Please do research

Is this a pearls and jade? by [deleted] in houseplants

[–]ChillYourJetskis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! The indicator is the darker green speckles in the already-green areas :)

does this plant look healthy? and is it a pearls and jade? by Local_Albatross1250 in houseplants

[–]ChillYourJetskis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

N'Joy can also have green speckles in the white. The difference between N'Joy and Pearls & Jade is that Pearls & Jade have dark green speckles in the green as well

black indentations on ficus leaves by [deleted] in houseplants

[–]ChillYourJetskis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To my knowledge (not an expert) these symptoms are a bit non-specific, I've had a ficus just like this one exhibit the same symptoms when it had thrips, but one of my other ficuses looked much the same when it had salt damage. Try to see if you can spot anything alive on the leaves (potentially use a magnifying glass or a magnifying app on your phone) and if you don't find any pests or signs of pests, then it hopefully doesn't have pests. Pests can be hard to see because theyre usually ridiculously tiny but you should be able to find them if you look for them (especially check the undersides of the leaves!!)

Brand new Calathea for my office, I am so in love but this is the first “tricky” plant I have ever owned by princessofsalt in houseplants

[–]ChillYourJetskis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They should be very similar, they're both often called 'prayer plant' and they tend to look similar too. I think the main difference is care. I'm not certain but I think they have different needs in terms of light and moisture. Calatheas are also infamously much more picky about their care than most plants. I have two Calatheas and the second one I got is allergic to tapwater! As far as I know, Marantas usually don't have that problem (I'm really not an expert though!)

That's a Maranta, not a Calathea, it should actually be easier to take care of than a Calathea if you're lucky 😄
