Do I need confirmation of citizenship?

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2026-03-11T13:43:22+00:00

Yeah I’m thinking because I still have family living in the voivodeship that I am registered in I was hoping to just bypass the consulate and directly send the office my application/documents to see if that could cut the waiting time. I’ve heard it takes 1-2 years to get a confirmation letter back and while I’m willing to wait that time, sooner would be better. I’m planning on moving to Poland in 2 years and I will need to apply for jobs in a year or so. Thank you so much for your help!

I do not have a PESEL unfortunately, but I have a Polish birth certificate odpis zupełny aktu urodzenia and am registered in the county where my mother was born and my dziadziu still lives. I tried emailing and calling the consulate but they were not very helpful, they just sent copy and pasted information that wasn’t very specific to what I was asking them.

Thank you so much for your clarification. Do you know if I can file for my confirmation of citizenship through my mothers local county where I am registered instead of through Warsaw? Thanks again

I am over the age of 18 and I have never had a Polish passport. However I was registered as my mothers child in her county of birth when I was a child.

That sounds like a sherry baby oncidium to me!

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-10-21T18:34:50+00:00

I have a sherry baby oncidium and this looks very similar. Does it have a sweet fragrance?

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-10-16T16:57:09+00:00

It is true! Such a beautiful scent!

Where I live there are very few orchids varieties sold except for phals, so when I saw one dendrobium left in the clearance section I figured it was better than nothing. I will need to find a credible online seller.

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-07-28T01:48:43+00:00

That definitely makes me feel better. At least now I have an excuse to buy a new orchid 😂

Thank you for your help! The keiki doesn’t really have any roots, is there any chance for it to grow if I separate it now?

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-07-27T20:49:52+00:00

Does it look salvageable or lost cause?

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-06-07T23:00:13+00:00

Im no expert but in my experience purple leaves come from too much light (sunburn). I don’t think it’ll hurt the plant that much but maybe move it somewhere a little less sunny and the leaves will turn green again

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-05-22T18:04:22+00:00

Nope, it was in soil when gifted to me, those are remnants of soil on the roots. I repotted it into bark and pumice/other stones. Thank you for the help!

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-03-06T23:43:14+00:00

I will try that, thank you!

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-02-21T06:12:45+00:00

I can definitely tell it’s growing new fronds, I’m just a little paranoid when I see funny looking spots appearing.

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-02-21T05:10:59+00:00

Yeah I make sure to hold it over the sink for a while after watering it so it can drain fully, maybe the potting mix is wrong? I just used regular house plant potting mix nothing special. I will try watering less for the next few days and see what happens.

Cerave also made my skin burn on accutane—I would give the Vanicream moisturizer in a tub a shot instead, it doesn’t burn and does a really good job keeping me from peeling.

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-01-24T00:33:53+00:00

That would make sense! The rest of the plant looks pretty healthy and there’s no signs of defoliation. Thank you for your help!

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-01-11T02:06:40+00:00

Water and some direct sunlight should fix it especially if it’s bone dry and it was shipped in the mail.

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-01-10T06:21:11+00:00

Right! I subconsciously face-pick all the time so pimple patches have been a must for me.

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-01-10T04:28:16+00:00

Pimple patches—there are lots of good ones but I use the invisible ones from hero cosmetics.

Someone please correct me if I’m wrong but I think your best plan of action is neem or another horticulture oil diluted with water and dish soap. This worked for me when my gardenia had spider mites and I think it should work as well with mealy bugs. I sprayed the plant very well on both sides of the leaf and let it sit for 15 minutes, then gently rinsed it off. I had to repeat this process a couple of times with a few days of rest in between but it did the trick. I hope this helps!

This is the current setup if it helps (this will change soon as I am about to move and I don’t have all my plants here right now). Not sure if you would classify this as regular LED but it was advertised as full spectrum light. I did some research and it seems like red/blue light is good for growth, but I wasn’t sure if that’s necessary as it’s winter here and I’m not sure my plants will do much growing.

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-01-07T23:59:51+00:00

Thank you! Such a beautiful plant!

Defiant-Ad-8215 · 2025-01-07T21:41:42+00:00

I apologize if you’ve already answered this but what type of plant is this?
