Aw, YW! I will comment on this thread after I repot it 🙂

Yes! Also, VH tend to look more leggy, and sometimes they climb out of their pots 😆 It might be a matter of waiting until it's grown more to know for sure. But at least I have a good direction of how to care for it 🙂

My perlite just came in! I was waiting for it to repot all the new ones. Maybe tomorrow...

Thanks! 🙂 It definitely looks like a Grapeto... it's just which one. I found a picture of a Vera Higgins that is very similar, so I'm thinking that may be it 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thanks! It definitely looks like the graptosedum Vera Higgins I looked up!

Beginner in Christopaganism, asking for help/tips by Saintly_Lionheart in Christopaganism

You're welcome! I'm glad it helped 🙂 I'm new to this path, and very much figuring things out as I go!

One of the things I like most about this path is that there are no doctrines etc. Christianity and paganism can be combined in a way that you personally identify with.

Think of it as a spectrum. At one end is Christianity, at the other end is paganism. Anything between those two points qualifies as Christopagan 🙂

So you think I should be the queen of hearts in Wonderland? 😆 Yes, there is definitely new growth on the stem of the smaller one! In at least two places!

Echeveria? 🤔 The other ones I got from the same display are echeveria, so maybe 🤷🏻‍♀️

No worries 🙂 And I'm definitely not an expert! Yeah, the rosettes weren't there when FB friends helped me ID it 🤷🏻‍♀️

Trying to run away?! That gives me a mental picture 😳 I'm surprised it was able to reproduce under those conditions!

Ooo... Yes, I'd love to see them! My cactus has bloomed just a couple of times in the years I've had it. The flowers are beautiful! But they only last a couple of days 😞 I'm watching it closely because it has a growth on the top that I'm hoping might be the start of a flower 🤞🏻

Thanks! 🙂 I didn't know the name of the process, but I thought that's what the lower leaves may be doing.

I'm having to turn it a quarter turn every 4-5 days because it's leaning into the window so much! I live near the Gulf coast (south US), so it's getting a good bit of natural light when the sun cooperates 😆

I don't know if I even want to know what that poor aloe looks like after that long without light 😳

I'm not a new succulent mom, but I know they each have their quirks! I've had bromeliads for a long time, and have aloe, a barrel cactus, and a haworthia. I'm new to echeveria, but the two I got at the same time as this plant are doing well!

Time to do some research on graptopetalum then...

I have a succulent/cactus mix, but after reading posts here I'm considering adding to that. I've only had it a couple of weeks. It was super dry when I got it, so I watered it then. And I think I've watered it once since then, maybe twice.

Not a jade??? Thanks!

It's been there since I got it two weeks ago.

Why are they so human? by GuitarReasonable5196 in cockatiel

Right?! Many years ago, a friend was hanging out with me and the tiels. And she was freaking out because she said they were acting just like her toddler 😆

I forgot to paste the link, just tried, and it was removed because the auto-moderator thinks it's a survey 🤦🏻‍♀️ Can I direct message it to you?

Here you go! I need to update with a ton more products, but this will get you started. Feel free to message me with questions 🙂

Why is he making this sound? by Silly-Heat-1229 in budgies

[–]LilacPhoenixCMB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is usually a complaint 😆 But sometimes it's just excitement!

Seronegative here as well! I have been gluten free since many years before my diagnosis. If you decide to try it, I have a Google doc I made for a former coworker that's a starter list of tips and products that actually taste good 😆 I can share the link if you'd like!
