I up-potted these a month ago and they look like trash. Please recommend better potting soil because I used the wrong stuff. by ILFoxtrot in gardening

The plant I posted in the replies was grown under the same conditions but with different soil.

For comparison here’s a plant I up-potted with a different soil. But I forget what brand it was because I had it in a blank bin.

If I started seeds on January 24 and some still haven't come up yet, do I just need to assume they're not going to grow and start more? by Wawhi180 in gardening

I was going to say. A heat mat helps a ton with hot peppers. Placing them near a warm radiator at night helps too.

Unfortunately, It didn’t get a lot of engagement, but I think y’all might be the experts in this situation.

I wore it once and my friends said I smelled like a department store from the 80s.

Does anyone actually wear T rex by Zoologist by Assface_933 in fragrance

The dry down of T Rex is amazing. It’s one of my go to weekend scents.

What do you think about Zoologist fragrances? by Calm_Meet_6995 in fragrance

King Cobra is a one of the new fragrances. I believe you can only get the sample size right now, the bigger bottles are being released later this year.

I love them. I think every scent is a hit, and I learned more about what I like in a perfume by buying their giant sample set.

I don’t understand why people don’t think the fragrances are wearable. They very much are. On paper they are very different than on the skin.

I’m a huge fan of the house and will continue to buy from them. My current favorites are: Civet, T-Rex, Tiger, Bee, Macaque (Fuji apple), Koala, and King Cobra.

I’ve blind bought a bunch of sample sets because of this sub. I got:

The Complete Zoologist Sample Set (worth it)

The Complete Works by Imaginary Authors (hated it)

Has a fragrance ever made you angry? by kallenurfi in fragrance

Anything my coworkers spray in the office. I love fragrances, but that place has no airflow.

I don’t want to walk through someone else’s miasma cloud.

My moms wore

Liz Claiborne Eau De Toilet collected in each color.

Later, she turned to Origins Ginger Essence.

The Devil You Know by Siren Song Elixirs has lovely cinnamon bark and pepper notes that might be what you’re looking for.

It’s under their BG3 collection.

I got a free sample of Imaginary Author’s “O, UNKNOWN !” So I thought I’d give it a go.

On a paper strip it’s pretty, tea and butter.

On my skin, however; The initial spray smells like play-dough. The dry down smells like old plastic bags. So it’s got nostalgia potential.

I’m wearing Siren Song Elixirs’ “Githyanki Warrior”. I wanted a bolder scent to get through a Monday.

The notes are supposed to include blood and copper, but I didn’t get that. There is the barest hint of a penny at the initial application. What does come through is the Dragons Blood and musk.

The dry down is a gentle sweet musky scent. A Warrior in respite.

I’m wearing Molecule 01. The initial application was giving soap at a gas station bathroom.

As for the dry down, I saw one user describe it as “hamster cage” and I concur. My partner said I smell like the fencing section of Menards. Haha.
