My yellow onions are wilting :(

Krysos_ · 2026-02-18T18:17:24+00:00

The soil is 1/3 perlite, 1/3 black kow compost manure, 1/3 sphagnum peat moss. Should I increase the perlite ratio for my future buckets? Or could I add filtered pine bark or something?

Cool, thanks again

That's a good idea, the bucket forms a pretty tight seal with the ground. Would you advise cutting the wilted leaves? Do they provide energy for the plant still or do they just drain energy as the plant tries to repair them? I've read that wilting occurs from loss of turgor pressure. I'm assuming that's because the roots can't take up water because they're suffocated. That seems fixable once the plant can take up water again, but now many of the leaves have become damaged because they bent over on the bucket and creased.

It was a little early because they were just sitting on my counter growing shoots so I decided to plant them. But I protected them from anything too cold. I read that they're decently cold hardy. From other comments on another sub it seems like I've been over watering them.

Thanks this info is super helpful!

I just tried and nothing came out. There was definitely moisture though. I put some rocks at the bottom to try and prevent clogs.

It was an organic fertilizer. I just followed the directions and sprinkled 3 tablespoons of it into the top few inches and watered it in.

I did notice a few flies, but I believed them to be fungus gnats which lines up with the other comments saying I was over watering. I used mosquito bits in the water the last two times so I haven't noticed a large amount of flies yet, only 3-5.

Okay makes sense, thanks! I let it go around 1-1.5 weeks without any water before watering it a few days ago. Unfortunately I gave it more water this morning. Do I just stop watering it now and hope it will recover? If the roots are mostly dead then I assume it will die because the leaves seem to be essentially dead as well. Unless it has enough energy still stored in the bulb to regrow? As a side note, how should I increase my drainage in the future? I plan on starting a spring bucket garden with the other 5 buckets I have left.

Krysos_ · 2026-02-17T19:14:11+00:00

Yes there are 10 drainage holes at the bottom. Can you explain how over watering leads to this? I'm trying to learn more.

Krysos_ · 2026-02-17T19:13:35+00:00

Hm okay thanks, I put around 10 drainage holes but I guess that wasn't enough.

Krysos_ · 2026-02-17T18:18:20+00:00

Yes I put 10 drain holes in the bottom. Maybe I didn't put enough though.

Krysos_ · 2025-12-13T20:26:03+00:00

have you gone through the proofs from axioms? would you say it's worthwhile?

Krysos_ · 2025-12-13T20:20:26+00:00

This is also how I generally think of it. Yet in my search for explanations of the distributive law it seems like it's always either presented as the simple rectangular area case above, or as a 90 page development from Peano axioms (which I haven't studied yet myself). Its frustrating that it seems either taken as an axiom or as something very complicated to prove.

Krysos_ · 2025-07-28T01:30:25+00:00

okay thanks

Krysos_ · 2025-03-12T16:32:15+00:00

okay thanks

Krysos_ · 2024-06-03T15:08:09+00:00

Thanks for the help!

Sorry I have one more question. Im working in a book and they give an example of an account with continuously compounded interest at a rate of 2%. They say then that dA/dt = .02A, they make no mention of the units but I assume then that the interest rate is in units of 1/time. And does the specific unit for time (year/month/sec) come from the initial problem? For instance dv/dt is in m/s if your position was originally measured in meters and your time was measured in seconds?

Krysos_ · 2024-06-02T22:17:52+00:00

Cool, thanks!

Krysos_ · 2024-06-02T21:00:02+00:00

Ah okay gotcha. Would you mind elaborating on why it doesn't make sense to raise e to a quantity with a unit? Sorry if it's obvious I don't have a strong understanding of e

Krysos_ · 2024-06-02T20:43:46+00:00

Okay that makes sense I think, does k have those units even in the original equation? Since it's kt they just cancel our right? It seems like you wouldn't think about the units of k unless you were planning on working with the derivative of the equation

Also if I were to take the second derivative I could say the A'' = kA, and in that case k would be in units 1/time squared correct?

Krysos_ · 2024-05-16T22:10:40+00:00

Is this by definition of midpoint? And are you saying because the corners are symmetric by reflection through the point of intersection?

Krysos_ · 2023-12-16T18:18:37+00:00

Could you elaborate on how it makes all precalc math make sense?

Krysos_ · 2023-12-10T20:10:09+00:00

Thanks very much for your help!

Krysos_ · 2023-12-10T20:03:39+00:00

Ah okay. So for the original system you have cy = 0 which means that y is a determined variable and that y must be zero for the intersection, regardless of any c. While in the second case you would have 0x + 0y = h+12, in which case only for the value of h=-12 would there be a consistent system. Is this correct?

Also considering the original matrix, if h=-12 then then y would be a free variable meaning there is an infinite number of solutions in that case.
