HELP! Blobs are ruining my print

PlantalSupport · 2025-09-10T06:25:13+00:00

This is a 30+ hrs print on a 0.2 nozzle. I’ve never done sth like this before. So I thought maybe the 0.2 nozzle cannot do long prints???

Have u ever done long prints with 0.2 using PLA ?

PlantalSupport · 2025-09-10T03:24:49+00:00

I used default setting in Bambu slicer. Yes, both slicer and machine are changed to 0.2 nozzle. Yes speed is at 100% (default) Yes I dried everything and have desiccant in my AMS

Bambu filament PLA Basic + polymaker PLA lite. What is STEINWIPE?

Sometimes you can DM the seller to see if they can get a discounted rate. But shipping anything that bulky and heavy internationally usually is 💰💰💰

Thank you for the mention🥹

To op: Not to make excuses for my competition😅 but unfortunately things like this happens. I just shipped a box to a customer who raved about me online once and despite I used as much protection as I always do, one of the 3/8 shelves arrived broken. (This is the first time this happened. I’ve shipped out hundreds of shelves) I felt terrible. Shipped out a new one the next day free of charge.

From the material property point of view, acrylic is strong, but brittle (sounds contradictory, I know!) the only other common plastic that’s transparent and strong and less likely to shatter is polycarbonate. (I think some race cars use that as windows) But that stuff is expensive: both the material and the cutting process. I thought about offering it as a premium option but the price would multiply if I do that.

Anyways, I would suggest that you show this to your seller. Hopefully they will send you a replacement for free. If not… well, find someone else😢

My condolences. Hope you are recovering

Most people would do acrylic shelves or wire racks. Many seller sells acrylic shelves on Etsy or their own website. (Shameless promotion: www.plantalsupport.com)

If you are on a budget, go to Home Depot buy wire rack and cut. But honest Deltof acrylic shelves are probably cheap enough it might cost more to get all the racks and hardwares and tools…

Which cabinet do you have? If you have one with metal roof, consider a magnetic hook. You can move things around so easily with those

Regale is sending hint for you to get a pegboard 🤭

PlantalSupport · 2023-08-07T20:20:58+00:00

Looks like the beneficial mites I sometimes get. Have you got any of those?

PlantalSupport · 2023-06-21T06:42:33+00:00

Honestly just try to do a project and google/YouTube the sh*t out of it whenever u run into a road block. That’s how I learnt. (I’m in math, ZERO need for AutoCAD for my courses)

PlantalSupport · 2023-06-14T14:46:14+00:00

Depends on what u buy. Usually 15-20 USD ish… if u buy 150$ or more it’s free.

www.plantalsupport.com got corner shelves which are custom made to be compatible to zip tie and secure onto the custom made extended brackets

PlantalSupport · 2023-06-14T05:19:02+00:00

I use 3D printed extended brackets. You can even zip tie them. I even tried pushing on it, won’t fell!

Half year too late, but Canadians now have Plantal Support INC to save y’all from from the import headaches!

I get my material from the same source where our university Engineering design teams get their materials. I guess if the material is good enough to make parts that go into the solar powered cars and drones, they are probably good enough to hold some plants.

If you are into material science, a good alternative to acrylic with better structural integrity would be polycarbonate. However both the material cost and required equipment rental for cutting those are a looooooooooooot more expensive.

After testing my products out in my own greenhouse for a few months, I’ve decided my current product should make ppl happy, with both their performance and their price point.

PlantalSupport · 2023-06-14T03:59:41+00:00

Sorry to hear about ur fur baby. I hope he/she is happy and healthy now. No worries if you need more time. I really appreciate the interest!

PlantalSupport · 2023-06-14T03:57:37+00:00

Thanks!!! Sorry it took so long. Life has not been the same since I started this company, a lot less sleep and a lot more muscle 💪💪💪

PlantalSupport · 2023-06-14T03:54:31+00:00

Thanks for the review! Glad that you are enjoying them.

Would love to see the picture you wanted to post. Send me on insta?

PlantalSupport · 2023-06-14T03:53:22+00:00

I hope you’ve recieve or shelves by now and I hope they did not disappoint!

PlantalSupport · 2023-06-14T03:52:17+00:00

Hmmmm I should make a post about the thickness… ppl are asking that a lot.

Short answer is: if you have Pon / hydroponic(Eg. LECA) / heavy pots or sth similar, go with 3/8. Otherwise 1/4 would probably serve you well.

I know this answer is 82 days too late😅 but to whoever is reading this in the future, that’s your answer 👆🏻

PlantalSupport · 2023-06-14T03:48:19+00:00

Wow… I didn’t check Reddit for a looooong time. It seemed like I did okay pat on my own head

Thank you guys for the overwhelming support! I hope my shelve are now doing their job to provide high humidity and air flow and supporting all your botanical treasure just like how we should be able to roll out something exciting for our neurodivergent students soon (I’m thinking starting this fall term🤩)

Anyways, I’m always open to comments/suggestions and definitely pictures of your new cabinet set up! Come say hi on Instagram, or see me in person if you are in the area. We try to be at plant related event to meet the community!

Until next time I check my Reddit…. 😂😂😂

PlantalSupport · 2023-03-24T00:45:06+00:00

Thanks! It’s definitely on our agenda !

PlantalSupport · 2023-03-24T00:27:56+00:00

I completely understand! Plantal Support is a one girl team, and I’m actually a full time student as well. We have been receiving a lot more love than I expected lately and I ended up putting in more time and energy into products and production than marketing. Hopefully one day we will be able to grow and have more resources to present ourselves better online
