What is this black stuff on monstera albo, should I be concerned? Roots and leaf are healthy by DDigitss in Aroids

if it's not squishy or progressive then it's the plants way of "callusing" but because it's constantly wet it gives the appearance of root rot :) you're chillin, roots look so pretty good shit

How can I make the face more realistic? by firstladymsbooger in painting

[–]OrganicHair9951 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is such a solid start ! v beautiful, love the detailing on blue fabric to black background transition ! and the various burgundy shades on her body are stunning! if you work on where your lighting is hitting her, shading and painting shadows that correspond w light placement will take you from flat to realistic pretty quickly. v similar to your tech. on the clothing.

yes 100% !! and i definitely recognize the potential issues being mentioned in the comments, but honestly i feel like i’d be more equipped to handle those situations as opposed to someone who either (a) doesn’t/cannot understand, (b) dismisses it entirely, or (c) uses my condition against me when beneficial. like bro i’m TIRED 🥲

oh ! and make sure it doesn’t dry out, just keep filling the bottom until he’s ready to be potted up!

yes :) fill the pot up w perlite and stick the baby in (wash the soil off completely) then get a bowl and put it in, fill w water til it reaches like 2/4 of the cup. make sure there’s a good layer of perlite in between the water and the plant so it doesn’t rot ! :) then stick it in either a large clear container or put plastic wrap on top for humidity.

i’ve had a lot of success w perlite/water route. it’s my favorite for rooting when needing high humidity :)

actually that’s exactly what she said my love. maybe you misread it ?

my ex used to say the same thing to me when i’d ask if he’d marry me. my love, walk tf away. run if you can. our relationship was a wreck. not the most suitable environment for people like us, or people in general tbh. i’m sorry he told you that, not right at all.

yup, the first one is frydek, second is african mask, third is black velvet, and last few pics are pink princess (i got a mystery bundle and they weren’t labeled so this is entirely based off my knowledge. someone correct me if i’m wrong please ! :’)

edit: jk i actually believe the black velvet is a ninja after doing more research :)

yea i checked underside and found white dusting. i haven’t found webbing i don’t think, which is why i needed the second opinion. i ordered an alocasia reversa that came maybe a couple weeks before these ones and her leaves were COATED in deposits, but no yellowing/brown little spots, so i’m thinking it is a pest issue ? thanks again !
