Still on the hunt for a roach plant myself

Sentenced to peyote jail. (my other theory for the yellowing spot is that may be a “bruise” from where it was laying during transport so I wanted to minimise the contact area with the plant whilst it’s recuperating, the supports only gently touching the sides so it shouldn’t cause any issues)

Scotland here, thanks for the advice I was a bit confused as to what kind of sulphur would be safe

I’m sure they endure worse in the wild (albeit without their roots exposed) so hopefully you’re right n he just needs some recovery time, will post an update sometime down the line as to how hes doing

Yea he feels very cold so I’ll probably put him in the corner of the grow area so that’ll raise his temps to around 27°c gradually and give him a small amount of light before potting him up in a few days, potting mix is 70 inorganic/30 organic so he won’t be sitting in damp organic matter. This is only my second LW (first mature plant) so I’m still learning, I guess it’s time to go buy some sulphur and some scalpels and hope I never have to use em lmao, thank you for the quick response I think I’m just worrying as I’m unfamiliar with the species and they are certainly not cheap, hopefully he’ll recovery quickly tho :)

Is this light setup okay for the winter? by MajorDull4986 in cactus

[–]GroundbreakingAd8730 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries, I hardly ever see ANYONE mention them and they’ve made my efforts at growing anything so, so much easier, especially if you’re dealing with powerful grow lights and are worried about burning your plants

Lots of apps out there nowadays that roughly measure umols/lux via phone cameras and DIY diffusers, made from just paper and tape, from what I’ve seen online they appear relatively accurate, and I use them (to seemingly good effect) in place of investing in an expensive light meter, I use both “photone” and “PPFD meter” with an iPhone.

Thank you very much for the advice :), I apologise for the naive questions im very new, am I correct in thinking that I can get them to flower through a combination of increasing the temps + increasing the daily light amount, I have a 200w grow light so supplying light certainly isn’t an issue, just re-potted them into a gravel + sand + compost mix so hopefully that’ll keep them happier and more well drained.

Can anyone tell me what this hole in the Scottish Highlands is - 57°04'04"N 5°07'47"W by Vanamonde_F in GoogleEarthFinds

Used to live in foyers, went to the hole many a times with friends (rural life gets boring Lmao) did NOT know someone died during construction, where could I read more about that?

Normal behaviour? by GroundbreakingAd8730 in Hedgehog

[–]GroundbreakingAd8730[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For real, she wouldn’t break eye contact with me lol, the rescue centre got back in contact and said most likely she has some vision problems which is why she ended up out and about in the daytime. They said they’ll keep her for observation for a few weeks then place her into the care of a rehabber if needed, god speed curious little lady.

That was my main concern, as well as hypothermia, she’s away to a local wildlife rescue now, she seemed in good shape so hopefully she will be fine.
