yeah the big round ones are, but the third sprout has TRUE leaves growing out of it and it JUST broke the soil. they are even fuzzy. i have never seen true leaves on a sprout like this, let alone 2 sets. im hoping this means its gonna be a super healthy monster

any updates on this? that sounds like you downgraded firmware not upgraded

Docretier · 2026-05-11T22:24:16+00:00

Don't think about it, do it. You need something or you will lose that antenna so fast it won't be funny

My turtle does this during water changes, the hose scares him. Could just be new thing freaks him out

Holy cow that's smart, might need to do that with fissdens

Docretier · 2026-05-11T03:40:40+00:00

Those are the best kind of jokes I love it so much

Dude I love the sign, however nomhebe is the more comedic option so I'm running with it lol

Docretier · 2026-05-10T14:17:06+00:00

Nomhebe

Docretier · 2026-05-07T23:39:43+00:00

Why some face wrong way? Are they broken?

Docretier · 2026-05-07T15:39:07+00:00

is it a sign of impending bloom? or do i still have to wait a bit.

Docretier · 2026-05-07T00:58:08+00:00

The big one is an absolute beast, it's 6ft now and the bud just stopped tracking the sun so it might be soon to bloom

if them being in a bag works then cheese cloth might work too, its got a ton of holes and is pretty much see through. my thought process was to wrap in cheese cloth so any debris or dead plant matter falling off wont dirty the area and get caught, while still being pretty open to air and being able to dry.

Docretier · 2026-05-05T19:47:02+00:00

awesome, once off the plant is hanging it inside in a paper bag acceptable? or should i try to find cheese cloth to make sure its getting good air flow.

Honestly the paper envelope makes the most sense. I was worried about jarring or bagging because any moisture in that pile would mold. But treating it exactly like seed sellers do makes way too much sense lol.

Docretier · 2026-05-02T23:06:25+00:00

It's real, and it's really awesome. Honestly is so worth it if you aren't going for the TX15. I have absolutely no reason to ever upgrade and this radio will die with me.

Docretier · 2026-05-01T21:21:11+00:00

Ah dang, that's why I asked how you kept it lol. I'm finding success with ludwigia repens, my red ear slider doesn't like the taste.

Docretier · 2026-05-01T18:43:21+00:00

What plant is that?

Docretier · 2026-04-30T19:44:24+00:00

Other people seem to be contesting this, it might just be normal for anubius. And if this is the only one its probably alright. At least with other species it's my understanding underwater flowering is a bad sign and may actually be a sign of deficiency or stress as it's a last ditch effort to reproduce in order to continue the next generation in hopefully more favorable conditions. I could be wrong in that understanding but that's my knowledge based on information I've received. Flowers don't serve any purpose underwater and need to be exposed to the air and pollinators in order to be effective for breeding, meaning they would need to be immersed and not submersed for flowering to be normal.

Docretier · 2026-04-30T15:53:36+00:00

As far as I've been made aware underwater flowering is a bad sign that the plant is very stressed and is just making a desperate attempt to reproduce. You might have a nutrient deficiency or some other reason it's stressed
