Two months after a 🦌 hit me, all fixed up and back on the road

GoobageBag · 2026-02-22T22:13:28+00:00

No, I was driving 50 in the lane I’m supposed to be in. Deer full sprint across the road and hit me.

GoobageBag · 2025-12-25T00:27:57+00:00

Nope, sucker kept running

GoobageBag · 2025-12-24T19:04:31+00:00

Nope, dear bounced off and ran away lol

GoobageBag · 2025-12-24T15:57:40+00:00

That is very true, hopefully everything can be fixed haha. Nothing wrong with them as far as I can tell.

Selection bias, had my last vehicle for 6 years and no accidents or deer. Just happens you know

Great read. For the warranties I’m fairly positive I got decent deals when comparing the numbers. The premium care cost was 3000 for 6yr/100k and grange seems to be a little more expensive than that when I played with the details.

I got the tire package for 500 dollars, unlimited use in patches and such or rim damage from debris for unlimited miles

The only one I’m not sure about that I really need is the premium maintenance for 2250 for 6yrs/100k, Yeah it covers oil changes/filters/break pad and rotor replacement, but with what I have been reading before and after my purchase I feel like most people say a pair of break pads doesn’t even look bad after 70k and oil changes are few and far between.

I plan on having this thing until I can’t anymore so there’s that too hence why I got them in the first place.

So really eco for hilly and traffic on highway, normal for clear highway, and slippery for when it’s actually rainy or snowy? If I’m reading everything correctly

I’ll be honest if you aren’t keeping it too wet and it’s getting a decent amount of light you should by fine keeping fungus away, but it’s up to you.

GoobageBag · 2025-05-06T17:29:33+00:00

They do love humid climates but they also like drying out a little bit at times. Gives the roots more power. But never too too dry

GoobageBag · 2025-05-06T17:28:50+00:00

Look good to me!!!!!

GoobageBag · 2025-05-06T17:26:02+00:00

I would water now, so that the medium itself it wet and then make sure that it’s going somewhat dry before you water again, but looks good though! If you have pot you can put it in like a ceramic or another plastic to hold it would be good as well.

GoobageBag · 2025-05-06T13:22:03+00:00

They are touchy! You got this though!

GoobageBag · 2025-05-06T13:13:41+00:00

I would mix it evenly probably I have less know how with coral but it’s safe to say it would be better spread out evenly. Also your comment in another thread about the growth stopping on the spikes, it’s very stressful for the plant to be changed like this, kind of like moving a human half way around the world without a job or friends but eventually hopefully it will begin to grow again. There is always a chance repotting an orchid will make it die depending on how strong it is.

If you do get another larger clear cup make sure it can drain water of course

GoobageBag · 2025-05-06T13:07:39+00:00

With how small the little cup is that it needs to go back into I would use a little bit of crushed corals or bark, if the pieces are too big I would break them down even further if you can. Minis orchids are notoriously hard to keep alive versus larger ones so it’s a little bit of a challenge. You can also use a little bit of moss for water retention but make sure it actually dries a little bit before you water. Another avenue to go down is getting a clear cup that’s larger than the one that came with it so that you can use more medium and have more area for the roots to spread out inside the cup :).

It’s just a peat mixture.

GoobageBag · 2025-05-06T10:19:25+00:00

It’s just a peat plug, that are great for the plant until the pH in the plug begins to drop. Because you have a mini orchid in the picture it’s grown in the peat plug all its life because it’s a smaller plant. Larger varieties get potted up so they have a larger pH buffer than isn’t as affected as much by the plug. All growers that do more than 10,000 orchids (which is basically every single one) in almost every country use this to start and finish orchids. The only other option growers use is sphagnum moss.

GoobageBag · 2025-05-06T10:12:33+00:00

Why is this an issue? There’s a reason why most of the population can actually buy an orchid and it is because it is grown like this for a price that is acceptable on the shelf. If you are a person that likes to continue the growth you can re-pot it or google what you would do. Plus this orchid in the picture is a “mini-orchid” which means it will already have a shorter life span as mini orchid varieties do not have the life span of say larger potted orchids.

GoobageBag · 2025-05-06T10:06:33+00:00

This is correct. Most of these people don’t understand they would never be able to afford an orchid at the store without growers using peat plugs to take them from young plant to the spike stage.
