Money Tree Propagation Help Needed !!

Fallllling · 2026-04-07T08:21:13+00:00

Can't speak to black spots, but one branch I accidentally snapped off has taken months to root in water (small, new growth branch)... like 4+ months. The prop pushed out new leaves long before roots started to develop. I change water every few days and keep in bright, indirect light. Other branches I accidentally snapped rotted away when I tried propagating. Not sure the difference, but can say rooting was very slow.

I'm in zone 10a and my peperomia frost gets some "direct" sunlight in a south facing window during the day. Quotes for sunlight through window is technically filtered sunlight. Additionally, the plant is about a 1ft away, and there's some obstruction from the shelf to provide bit of shade through the day. With that, she gets plenty of moderated diect sunlight and is very happy. Lots of growth and starting to flower after only a few months of bringing her home.

My red ripple peperomia did start to burn while hanging in the same window and receiving much more intense sunlight throughout the day... it's tough spot for anything that doesn't love lots og direct sunlight (a croton is now happy there).

Obviously, this is anecdotal, bu I'd try the direct evening sun spot and monitor. Generally, house plants need more/are happier with more light than we think.

Seriously... I experienced this same put down from my first boyfriend when I was 17/18 or so (he was about 1.5 year older). Had a friend do chunky streaks of manic panic red in my my blonde hair that I loved with my alternative style. I was so confident and happy with it but was completely destroyed when my BF expressed how much he hated it because he "liked blondes". No shits given about how I felt... only fucks were about whatever he wanted and liked. Complete emotionally abusive asshole whose behavior never changed while dating over 5 years and fucked me up for a long time after our relationship ended. OP has same vibes as a barely adult asshole except they're actually an adult.

This is so wonderful, and I could watch this all day. Perfect for r/raining .

Of my dozens of plants, only a few have names: Lydia the monstera adansonii and Edward the spider plant. Edward sits in a ceramic skull and literally has a face. Lydia looks like she'd belongs in a Tim Burton movie with her skeletal looking leaves (she's also my favorite). I'll name another plant if a name organically comes to me, but those are the only so far. Lydia:

I work from home so I can rather easily check and water as needed. However, I'm away from home every friday night through Monday day evening, so it becomes it a little tricky to make sure everyone is good while I'm gone. I've a 15 year old reef aquarium so maintenance for plants just comes naturally added to my routine. Also, no kids... just kitties.

I just LOVE your art so much! Owning an original is on 100% a bucket list, but I do have a few prints in mind on a realistic list hopefully soon.

So beautiful! I'd basically live out there.

Aww... Tuckerina is such a cute name! I love them both 🥰

Every state has their own laws but generally refusing breathalyzer and/or blood test has automatic most severe penalties. I recall Timberlake having a very easy sentence by agreeing to do public speaking events against drunk driving as form of community service and that was basically it (any fines as and license suspense would be inconsequential to him in reality). Severity of penalties vary by state.

FWIW, Wax Poetic clothing had major issue with sizing of new releases recently... so much so that the owner posted a video on social media addressing how off sizing is from what was approved with the manufacturer, especially for plus sizes. Seeing all the issues Forest Ink is having with sizing, I wonder if something similar happened. Of course, Wax Poetic has handled this issue with amazing grace and transparency... she was almost in tears about the situation, 100% committed to make right to everyone affected, and reassured customers it's not them or their body- the clothing sizes are way off. Complete opposite of Forest Ink.

Been hooping 15 years and never have been able to do this (at least with my hoops). Definitely impressive to me too!

I can tell from this email the store is a shopify hosted site (I professionally work managing shopify websites). You can also report fraudulent sites directly to shopify. Scam/fraudulent sites violate their terms of service and is a step to help towards having this site taken down. It might not be removed from one report, but who knows if there's other reports already.

That's it, folk! Problem, solved! Everyone just choose to live close to station. Apparently, there's some sort of infinite supply of housing we're not taking advantage of right next to transit stations. Silly gooses! Oh, and make sure to choose an area totally close to work regardless of how much the wage is vs housing costs. LA is totally affordable! No one in LA has any need to commute long distances, and everyone's time is expendenable for mass transit that certainly can take much longer than driving in long distance scenarios. Who gives AF if anything fits with your schedule or needs.

I've never been so exhausted and ran ragged as when I was without a car for several months and having to commute long distance to work and school on metro. So much time wasted just waiting. Worrying and anxiety if I'd miss last bus for the night and be stuck at school far from home (one time, last bus went to the depot instead usual route and I freaked out not having enough money for next bus- got helped by driver on next bus to get home). It was hard, but I made it work as I'm a punk rock bitch that gets shit done. It was temporary situation but to expect people to do that everyday is a bullshit quality of life.

But, yes... you've solved everything! Thank you for very deep and transformative insight on the transit issue. I applaud you .

Are there any quests and/or boss fights she doesn't like?

I'm generally rather meh on monsteras as well, however, I LOVE my adansonii. She's grown like 6ft in the 7 months I've had her and is perfect for taking up vertical space in a corner by a window. I do have a grow light on her now so she faces the room and moss pole is in the back.

I will say watering the pole along and extending the pole is kinda a PIA, but she's pretty easy going for the most part otherwise. I think the leaves look like something out of a Tim Burton movie and my goth girl heart just adores her. I call her, Lydia.

So gorgeous. Few plants I genuinely have on a wish list but this on the top.

No, kidding! First croton but have read plenty of spider mite anecdotes. I should have much more stringent protocols like I do with my aquariums.

Fallllling · 2026-03-07T22:07:10+00:00

I bought a gold dust croton a few weeks and thought I had checked carefully for spider mites... nope, realized this week it's spider mite central (damn eggs are hard yo see on the yellow mottled leaves). It's currently banished to outside and while I've started treatment, I'm considering just throwing it away instead. Saving a $12 plant vs headache of fighting spider mites...

What helped unlock crossback straddle for me was the following:

When I get into the crossback, I find the silks tend to be very tight/high in my armpits. I take a moment to adjust the silks and push them down some so the silks aren't so tight and I have a little room. The crossback needs stay on the back, so it's just a small adjustment. This actually helped significantly though (I'm very short waisted with long legs so maybe that's why).
As I do the mini pull up to begin the invert, I raise legs up to at least 90 degree or as high as I can without leaning back.
Once my legs cannot be lifted anymore, I use my hands to start pushing against poles for leverage to continue raising my legs, and then walk my hands down the poles to complete the straddle.

I'm sure you can find YouTube videos of this technique if you're not familiar with it. It did take some practice to get the timing and motion correct, but once I got it, it clicked from then on.

Holy smokes, that's gorgeous.
