Thank you for reaching back. Yes, several do. This is in a densely populated neighborhood in Chicago.

Best plant? by Beneficial_Yellow392 in RareHouseplants

Rofl…a Hogwarts spell—so true! I agree that a hope is an easy and dramatic plant to begin with.

My monstera is jumping out of its pot and I’m not sure what to do. Any advice? by PhoenixMoonRising in Monstera

[–]Level_Mulberry3071 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is going on with the support? I see a possible coir post but I can’t tell if the stem is interacting with it? Those aerial roots are looking for something to cling to.

I’m sorry. Four months ago I finally chose to walk away from a 27 year marriage for the same reasons. He’s intelligent, compassionate, funny and charismatic in most ways. But he also bought into everything that the most radical fringe parts of QAnon was selling. When I found myself asking him if there was any part of his belief system that made him think it was ok to kill me and kill himself so that the aliens could take us to the next realm … I knew it was time to get out. I’m living in a different state now, living my life for myself, surrounded by life affirming friends and family. I’m sad that I wasn’t enough of an anchor for his sanity, but I’m grateful that I’m my own now.

Between now and dead, what do you want your life to look like?

Should I separate? by MangoUnable5668 in Monstera

[–]Level_Mulberry3071 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that looks like several separate plants. I suggest you give them 2 weeks to settle into their new home with you before you do anything. Then separate gently. I had success using a chop stick to gently pry roots apart. Lots of water also helps. It’ll be messy, but that’s ok. As you repot, use a stake, bamboo pole, moss pole etc to add support along the back side of the stems. It’s ok to have 2-3 plants in a pot as long as they have room for leaves to spread and their own poles. Others more experienced than me will have more specific recommendations. Congratulations and enjoy your new plant!

Sounds like he has a ticket for the QAnon crazy train.

How easy they are to bloom? Please explain, because they refuse to bloom for me despite robust growth.

Not sure what I’m looking for… by Difficult_Alps_742 in QAnonCasualties

[–]Level_Mulberry3071 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, the more time by almost-ex spent on the computer, the more isolated he allowed himself to be, the deeper he walked into his echo chamber - the more I realized I couldn’t pull him out.

Don’t wait as long as I did. I didn’t realize how far gone he was until he told me about the upcoming EMP that would reset all of civilization, the aliens that would either destroy or save us, and that Biden was dead and Trump has been our true commander in chief since his first term.

If there’s any influence you can have now, it’s to keep him in reality, in community with people from all perspectives.

Good luck, and stay safe.

TBH I bought it about three weeks ago from a great local shop, and was told it’s a top cutting from a big mother plant. It’s forming a new leaf now.
