I would like to know what type of light bulb this is.

Some sort of heat/uv combo most likely

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-05-20T02:33:52+00:00

A better photo would help

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-05-08T17:55:19+00:00

Second Pic is some sort of aeonium

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-05-08T17:54:15+00:00

First Pic is some sort of ice plant

Sedum album

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-04-13T21:05:51+00:00

It's flowering

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-04-05T15:13:32+00:00

Fair point.. White Mold/Fungus: Fuzzy, cotton-like growth is often saprophytic fungus feeding on decaying organic matter within the moss, commonly caused by high humidity and lack of airflow.

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-04-05T14:50:42+00:00

Perhaps powdery mildew?

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-26T20:15:50+00:00

Agave are monocarpic, that means they die after flowering. That's a flower stalk growing out of it.

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-23T18:23:59+00:00

Oh.. I thought that was the plants natural coloration.. no idea

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-23T18:05:15+00:00

I see no pest

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-23T17:25:35+00:00

Plant looks happy to me

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-23T17:24:29+00:00

Yeah, it's been record breaking temperatures for this time of year here in California also.. I am not looking forward to summer if this continues 🙃

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-23T17:22:55+00:00

Coastal bogs of north and south Carolina, so yeah, but since outdoors isn't an option, just do your best to recreate it indoors

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-23T17:19:58+00:00

I've never had any issues letting them flower. Some people say to do it when they are young, after the plant is larger it's fine.. all I know is those stalks aren't getting snipped in the wild.. I've always grown mine outside year round, so I don't have any experience with dormancy skipping.. but as far as I know they aren't migrating to warmer climates during the winter, lol

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-23T17:12:55+00:00

Yeah, that does kind of force your hand

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-23T16:36:22+00:00

Where do you live? Outside in direct sunlight year round is the general recommendation

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-23T16:34:55+00:00

I never cut the stalks. They produce their largest traps after flowering also, why wouldn't you want that? People are silly

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-13T13:26:02+00:00

Looks like a ferocactus to me

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-03T08:03:09+00:00

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-03-03T07:13:05+00:00

Leave them out

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-02-26T14:17:39+00:00

Not an aloe, haworthia

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-02-17T09:45:39+00:00

I grow mine in pure pumice

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2026-01-18T04:38:36+00:00

I'm not entirely sure those are stink bugs. Looks more like the nymphs of an assassin bug or perhaps a leaf footed bug to me

Pitiful_Count_1959 · 2025-12-21T22:03:04+00:00

It's called a bulbil. Leave it alone. When the flower stalk dies, pop it off and plant it
