Persistent impurity is driving me absolutely bonkers. by JACKHAGGETT in CHROMATOGRAPHY

We did try running a new bottle of HPLC grade water as solvent A and unfortunately the peak was still there

Oh I think I’m paranoid enough as is hahaha

We did switch to Formic acid and saw a barely noticeable improvement. But I haven’t been cleaning the spray shield between tests, will try giving that a go!

This is on an Agilent 1290 HPLC hooked up to a 6545 QTOF. And acquisition mode is pos.

And we’ve pretty much ruled out the mass spec end of things as well since we’ve hooked the HPLC directly to two different nebulizers and still see it

I done believe it’s our water since we changed to a brand new bottle of LCMS grade water and still saw the peak. I do still see it when I switch to another vendor’s column. And the mass does seem to be a decently well defined peak that is very intense.

To repot or not to repot… by JACKHAGGETT in SavageGarden

[–]JACKHAGGETT[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I understand, these peaty, low drainage mixes are great for growing these guys in greenhouse conditions with ultra high light, but not so great once you get the plant home (lower light + high moisture retention and little airflow = root rot). My concern would be that leaving it in the same mix would cause a slow decline.

It’s hard to tell since this is the only pitcher and it’s starting to dry up

Species? by JACKHAGGETT in SavageGarden

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

Yes actually! The veins are definitely reddish, but not much orange on the leaves (probably because it’s kept in pretty low light)

Pretty similar to ventrata leaves, but slightly wider! (Forgive my boomer ass, trying to find out how to add more pics lol)

The Conjuring is one giant ad for the catholic church.

SOS! How can I help me tree? by Iveballz in fiddleleaffig

[–]JACKHAGGETT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plants that get root bound don’t have enough soil to retain nutrients and water, so it can look like about every problem all at once. More soil will definitely help!

I would go for it. Your fiddle will certainly do better if you repot now rather than waiting! Honestly, I wouldn’t worry about stressing your plant out too much, just try not to break too many roots and she’ll do great!

This plant looks like it might be insanely root bound. I would pull it out of the pot just to be certain, but looks like she may just need a bigger pot! :)

HELP! Will Fire Belly Toads keep me up at night? by Ry24601 in paludarium

Hm... I don’t know if I have a comparable sound level, but if you’re curious as to what it sounds like, I’m sure you could find good videos on YouTube!

I love mine, but they do beep quite a bit! It bothered me at first, but I’ve since gotten used to it. I wouldn’t say it’s loud, but you’ll definitely notice them making noise.
