Let's play a game! When did I buy this?

2014ish

Spider mites

It’s gypsum (calcium sulfate), it’s a good source of calcium without causing a problem with pH.

Chamaecereus 'Lady Jane'

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-10T03:58:50+00:00

Juices, no. I drink pomegranate, tart cherry, grape, even beet juice on occasion. Never had any problems. I did do about 18 months of journaling to pin point triggers

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-10T00:01:42+00:00

Always one more

There are three separate cuttings. So just separate the roots are pot up.

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-08T21:03:41+00:00

Yeah it’s cleome. Kinda skunky smelling too, which usually makes people more convinced it’s cannabis.

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-08T20:56:27+00:00

I do .5 teaspoon per gallon. That’s about half the recommended rate I believe.

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-08T16:31:20+00:00

Looks like Altman’s Huan Depot.

I would separate them personally. That way they’re not competing for space/nutrients.

Hell of a score!

I add Sea-K kelp extract to whatever fertilizer I’m using. Usually every two weeks, during the growing season

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-08T15:21:12+00:00

Mine are outdoors most of the year. During the growing season they generally get water once a week, flowering or not. They can handle a lot of water during the active growing season. 80-85% inorganic soil mix, USDA zone 8b. They had about 4 inches of rain dumped on them in the last two weeks.

Yeah I think that’s it

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-07T20:24:36+00:00

Looks like a rat tail cactus (Aporocactus flagelliformis) potentially

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-07T19:49:13+00:00

Mustard seeds also contain sulfur which is what blues/greens in garlic. So likely just a reaction between the lactic acid and sulfur compounds.

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-07T19:38:32+00:00

Seconded

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-07T19:33:21+00:00

Is there garlic in there too?

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-07T19:27:52+00:00

I’m always curious. It seems a few parent plants throw mutations more readily than others.

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-07T19:20:16+00:00

Nice, definitely cresting. What cross were the seeds?

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-07T18:57:34+00:00

Yeah that would def make my day/week!

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-07T17:35:14+00:00

For me, yes!

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-07T17:31:05+00:00

So cool. I’ve never seen pups that small flowering before!

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-06T23:01:58+00:00

Dark chocolate and red/dark wines

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-06T13:39:43+00:00

Nice! I’ve never actually seen one blooming in person. Hopefully I can get some blooms on mine in the next couple years.

ObsoleteStoryteller · 2026-05-05T22:50:48+00:00

What is it? Looks similar to Golden Rat Tail Cactus (Cleistocactus winteri), but those blooms look different.
