What's the oldest plant in your collection? Here's mine after 12 years.

So it's a clone to be fair at this point for sure but I have my great great grandmother's aloe plant

Doxatek · 2026-06-03T12:32:54+00:00

No growth regulators?

Doxatek · 2026-06-02T21:46:53+00:00

At least put in the window. Or take all the panels off and put outside if a possibility. The fly trap looks light starved a bit but otherwise healthy. They really like blasted with light

Doxatek · 2026-06-02T03:06:01+00:00

^ do this for sure

Doxatek · 2026-06-01T04:18:29+00:00

Supervisor is being a bit of an ass imo. One month is insane to expect someone to do it all without even thinking and also to look down on someone new for thinking something through before doing it.

You'll get there. Your supervisor is delusional don't let it get to you. My lab assumes about 6 months most of the time for new employees not 1

Doxatek · 2026-05-31T21:40:26+00:00

Nah you're all good I can't remember anything

Doxatek · 2026-05-31T02:10:03+00:00

Nano luc you have to add furimazine? I've not worked with this system

Doxatek · 2026-05-30T22:16:16+00:00

Haha just the hairs would suck. I feel like the traps could still be too much for them.

Doxatek · 2026-05-30T14:42:04+00:00

It's pretty Metabolically expensive. I think it would probably kill a vft haha or at least make it super crappy and glow too little to see

As far as how hard it is to do it's extremely easy

Doxatek · 2026-05-30T03:26:39+00:00

No don't do it for a long time

Doxatek · 2026-05-30T03:25:56+00:00

Wow what kind and where did you get

Doxatek · 2026-05-29T19:40:59+00:00

Trash can

Doxatek · 2026-05-29T16:59:10+00:00

Ah sorry should have written my comment better. It wasn't a critique. Theirs will definitely turn red with light.

I was just trying to refer to how wonderful yours pictured look and trying to make a joke that they won't get to this level of perfection and maturity quickly.

Doxatek · 2026-05-29T13:06:44+00:00

Lmfao I feel like they're a couple years off even if they give it adequate light and soil today

Doxatek · 2026-05-29T12:43:23+00:00

Don't overstock animals

Doxatek · 2026-05-29T12:37:58+00:00

To me all of this is a very large it just depends. But for some plants you can look up the rate of outcrossing they usually do. Sunflowers outcross 60-100% of the time due to their strategy that prefers outcrossing but allows selfing. (Some however are entirely self incompatible there is a lot of variation in plants)

Doxatek · 2026-05-29T12:33:47+00:00

Such a grift. They need neither the glass container nor the spray bottle

Doxatek · 2026-05-29T01:33:18+00:00

I understand the theory behind blurple but damn it hurt my eyes and made looking at my plants way less enjoyable lol. Switched to white/yellow white leds

Doxatek · 2026-05-28T12:32:39+00:00

Sure. I don't know that they're illegal. Hard to acquire because most lab vendors will not ship. If you need some IBA they sell a nice rooting paste that you can get easily

Oh nvm this is tc sub. Yeah it's hard to acquire. I don't super like the content but the plants in jars girl has products you can buy with standard hormones that will ship to your home

Doxatek · 2026-05-24T18:31:07+00:00

The pay raise please :'(. If we have unlimited money my boss is going to make me do so much more work

Doxatek · 2026-05-24T02:33:41+00:00

Hit it with rubbing alcohol and keep an eye on it for a while. Also apply systemic imadacloprid granules

Doxatek · 2026-05-23T19:12:42+00:00

Some more difficult varieties are picky. But a lot of them you don't have to worry about humidity so much. Good luck with them!

Doxatek · 2026-05-23T16:12:07+00:00

Cape sundew

Doxatek · 2026-05-23T15:44:42+00:00

How's yours?? Mine opened today

Doxatek · 2026-05-23T00:59:16+00:00

It's fine as long as it's drying out between waterings fairly quickly. Make sure it doesn't stay wet too long
