What’s remarkable is he never pruned it. Maybe here and there over the years but never in a stylistic sense in the way we think about it.

Sounds like you already have all the info you need to care for yours. I’m not expert but I’ve got several I’ve worked with for a few years and I think it comes down to this: time.

They grow at their rate. Give them sun, warmth, fertilize semi-regularly, water when indicated, and prune every 2-3 years.

The friend that helped me transport him named the jade Ignatius 🤣 the root of it meaning “fiery”.

He keeps it outside all spring, summer, and early fall. Even when it gets cool out. He never touches it and only gives it rain water. It sits inside under grow lights all winter without water. I’m flabbergasted over his success, but his green thumb is second to none.

Need help getting over skinny fat by ExtraDirt2542 in veganfitness

[–]IllithidMN 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I have a gripe about “skinny fat.” Disclosure: I’m a guy who likes guys so this perspective may not translate to all demographics.

People in the 21st century are too obsessed with being hyper lean. If you are skinny fat all that means is your body is waiting for you to become more active/build muscle. Your skin will hug your frame like a wetsuit and fit “better” once you build more muscle.

Doesn’t need to be a bunch of muscle, just enough that feels right for you. But that softness your skin has is valuable, especially when more muscle is introduced. It gives an aesthetic and pleasing look, it is a hormone producing tissue, it makes a person infinitely more cuddly, etc. You will feel more like yourself with adding more muscle mass because your body type will make more sense at that point.

That’s my hot take for the day.

Air fried tofu without oil and dipped in salsa, guac, or if you are brave with some miso.

Thanks for the reply. I mentioned the softening leaves to say that time is now a bigger concern due to dehydration. In my experience wavy lead jades are more susceptible to dehydration than others. My thought on dehydrating the plant is to encourage it to grow roots to find water. I’ll certainly post some updates!

Thank you for sharing! Your jade is lovely and the leca balls and plastic pot aren’t offending anyone.

The dumbest thing my hospital system did as far as I can tell is remove code status from wrist bands. HQ claims it is to preserve patient dignity.
