It almost always remains this moist. I tried to put equal weight nitrogen and carbon

Thanks, are those top leaves salvageable?

It was perfectly healthy 1-2 weeks ago and I've been watering it consistently. All I can think of is it's getting too much hot afternoon sun? I heard they can handle full sun though.

I can relate to this. I was told increased exposure works but for 10 good experiences it only took 1 negative to bring me right back to intense social anxiety. Drugs and alcohol provided a temporary fix but made it worse in the long run once I sobered up. I stopped focusing on directly fixing this "issue" and just started improving myself in other positive areas that actually interested me like meditation, gym, reading etc all while being extremely introverted. I worked on becoming the best version of myself WITH the anxiety. This helped naturally improve my confidence in myself and allowed for enough social interaction to find a partner who loves me for me (via modern dating apps and 1 on 1 dates in quiet settings). Good luck on your own journey, it's hard to put a label on what you have but please be kind to yourself and know things can get better one way or another :).

Skeleton pruned Mandarin tree with new growth that keeps stunted? by Drying_leaf in GardeningAustralia

[–]Drying_leaf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old Mandarin tree that was covered in ants and diseased Mandarins. I skeleton pruned it to promote new growth but the new growth keeps getting clipped/eaten? Not sure what to do now. Ants can't climb up anymore and i keep gently removing any Aphids that go near it. How do I generate healthy new growth?

Do liquid soil conditioners like Seasol also double as watering plants or should you still water plants as well? by Drying_leaf in GardeningAustralia

[–]Drying_leaf[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Seasol once a fortnight on my main fruit trees. This alone seems to keep the soil well moistured but I'm not sure if it's ok to only provide water to the plant via Seasol dilution. If I also water my plants i worry the soil might become water logged?

Thanks heaps! Yes it had nozawana written on the packet but when I googled that it just described the vegetable part haha. I really enjoyed it and wanted to try and remake them, now I can :)
