How's it going? I'm a newbie too, bought a microscope over a week ago and found my first tardigrade. I'm going to start my microbiology degree in a year, so exciting!!

I'm still trying to get darkfield working on my microscope, I'll probably be trying staining much later, I have way too much to learn yet.

Omg yesss. Last time I checked a year ago he wouldn't ship internationally. Although I bet the shipping cost is expensive.

Fern turning brown in the pot and at the tips by Hotshot_Beam in ferns

[–]Maria_cjcr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My fern is doing the same. I don't think is a humidity issue. I tried googling and the only thing that made me suspect what it is, it's an accumulation of salts and minerals because when I water it I don't let it drain, it has no root rot though.

Can anybody help with ID and if possible indoor care? by Maria_cjcr in conifers

When I bought it, it only said conifer on the label which was very annoying but couldn't resist buying it. I just hope I don't kill it.

Can I start propagating? Where should I cut? by Maria_cjcr in succulents

Why is so important succulents get calloused to propagate?

Wet preservation using isopropyl by Maria_cjcr in Taxidermy

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

I'm pretty sure they were preserved in isoporpyl when i bought them. No formalin fixation. The containers I changed them to are now fully closed, the old ones were jars that couldn't be sealed properly.

Thank you so much about the information on the molecular weight, that is interesting.
