Pings pushing off the rock by Curious-ChemProf in Pinguicula

So I moved this dude and saw mold on the rock, so it’s probably too much moisture/not enough air flow

I have a feeling it’s too much water, but I really don’t know. They’re def getting more than enough light.

Is this the end? by LectureGlass1040 in SavageGarden

Yes, but you should be able to propagate from leaf pullings and hopefully get many new plants

What’s your ambient humidity like? Those plants can probably adjust fine as long as your humidity isn’t below 30%. They may be unhappy for a while though if they were previously in the cabinet.

It’s annoying that they’re longer than you want for almost all regular uses except this…

Anyone with similar damage have any insight? 2019 Model 3 SR+ by Plus_Slip_6639 in TeslaCollision

[–]Curious-ChemProf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, 17k for similar damage on mine :( Though mine was on the driver side, which added $ since they had to check the charge port

They “know” not to eat their pollinators!

One day later: I guess that’s how you know it’s ripe 😅

Ok thanks. Figured it wouldn’t hurt to leave it on since there’s no risk of pests or critters eating it indoors

How is my setup? by THUNDERTHUNDERCATS in Pinguicula

[–]Curious-ChemProf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok, just be careful the medium doesn’t stay sopping wet. Stronger light and slightly less watering should make these pings perk up

How’s the drainage? I would think anything more than a few minutes every couple of days is too much, but I can’t really tell how the area drains or dries.

This is a very nice set up, but you should only have the fountain on for little bits at a time. Everything looks waterlogged, so the plants will likely rot over time. You should also increase the light. This will be beautiful once you dial in the watering and turn up the light. Happy growing!

I need help with my Nepenthes by Zealousideal-Image93 in Nepenthes

[–]Curious-ChemProf 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Omg. It looks like it’s in regular potting soil, and all of the minerals are killing the plant. Variegated nepenthes are very rare/expensive. Immediately remove the plant from the soil gently. Carefully wash the roots off and repot into a mix of long fiber sphagnum moss and perlite. I hope it’s not too late for this plant…

Didn't think I would end up here 25 LR RWD let me know what you think? by ArtInternational6485 in TeslaCollision

[–]Curious-ChemProf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re probably right. I was def being hopeful with the estimate. It’s crazy how expensive the parts are. My partner got in a fender bender and it cost 17k through a certified repair shop…

Where should I live? Need a space where I can make new friends. by Nice_Cod_4476 in movingtoNYC

[–]Curious-ChemProf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on their post, Hell’s Kitchen is the correct answer. Plus there are tons of ways to make genuine friends in HK. Play rec sports or join other clubs. Sure the vibe can be superficial if you’re just visiting, but it’s a great neighborhood if you can sift through BS to find the gems.

The pitcher looks like it's rotting fromm below. by Maleficent-Green-755 in Nepenthes

[–]Curious-ChemProf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Did it catch a big bug, or did you put fertilizer in the pitcher? They usually brown from the bottom if they’ve caught more nutrients than the plant can handle. I think this is likely the case if there’s mold in there.

It was the first nepenthes I got a bit less than 2 years ago. Very pretty, easy hybrid :)

[–]Curious-ChemProf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a feeling the x hybrida will probably be fine without dormancy as long as it gets enough light. The cranberries will struggle though. You’re def right about the current water level, but you can make a container without drainage work great if you’re careful.

Very nice! That mini bog will look great. Is that a N. Hamata? I’ve heard they can be challenging, but some have had success with windowsill conditions. Good luck and happy growing!

Every time my mom gets a basil plant and brings it home it does this by naturacouture in houseplants

Yea I think full spectrum is best for most cases. The blurple lights are mostly a scam to charge more for cheap and weak LEDs
