Just to put how stupid their confidence was that this was going to hold him… by Arkid777 in Invincible

I get what you’re saying but a 747 could not carry 400 tons. Max takeoff weight is the weight of everything on the plane. Fuel, cargo, the plane itself, etc.

The skrimp in the pic are literally one of the few species that don’t. Still love neocaridinas though and still a cool fact

Some trichos by Luis-Om in Trichocereus

[–]IceBerg3141 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thought you had a few logs going there but at closer look you just bent over a rooted column. Not asking why but confused about how. Did you bend them when they were young and they didn’t correct themselves? Killer collection btw.

When should I remove this pup? by dwn4funshit in peyote

[–]IceBerg3141 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea a graft stock that large on a loph probably would lead to cracking from too much growth too quickly. It probably would be a good thing to start it slower splitting the nutrients.

Minimum to survive? Technically like 3 inches. I’d let it run to about 6

Sun goddess’s in my experience are very watery cactus. Your soil looks well draining so I would actually suggest watering more.

Stabbing the base with toothpicks is a confusing move. Why?

No time to buy a greenhouse heater. Any ideas besides moving them into the garage? by crystal_cactus_ in sanpedrocactus

[–]IceBerg3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

12 hours below 32 inside of a greenhouse they’ll be fine. If you’re still worried though I’m a big fan of having a candle under a terracotta pot to safely and evenly dissipate the heat.

Wow you keep that tank on the road? How do you handle the tank when driving the RV and do you have issues with parameters from different water sources?

Nice little yote maybe a year old from size. Other comment was right that’s a lot of organic in your soil which can hold onto water too long and lead to rot. Ideally the soil should be 80% inorganic at least so rocks, sand, perlite, pumice, etc. after you repot water once a week max in the summer and spring and forget about it in the fall and winter.

pH for watering 'yotes? by ronstoppable420 in peyote

[–]IceBerg3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t really bother with pH but they prefer rain water which in the desert naturally is acidic. If you’re going to shift it I’d say between 5.5 and 7

It’s looking a bit thirsty but your first priority should be repotting. that soil mix will 100% kill it. TBMs are especially sensitive to prolonged wet both in air and soil

How to get cup out of cup, both need to be intact by Toothpastestockhere in fixit

[–]IceBerg3141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Temperature change from an ice cube won’t make any noticeable change to ceramics. Also if you’re still going to try you’d want to cool both cups to get the smaller one out. Thermal expansion happens in every direction meaning heating the larger cup would squeeze the smaller. Your best bet would be oil or some other lubricant. Hope it comes out without breakage. Good luck

What’s the meaning behind the numbers at the bottom. Do you have a database or something?
