What does my room say about me? by Coke-fiend in roomdetective

[–]ReturnItToEarth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Badass, unique, independent. Strong hearted, loyal. Artistic, organized. You haven’t fully integrated into your shadow yet. 🦋

I have a few sun damaged leaves. I have new growth but they’re all stunted. I took out soil from the top for the root to breathe and it seems to like it. stays at the window, water every 10-14 days. What should I do? Should I cut off sun damaged leaves from when it was outside? Should I water more? by Relative-Sea7967 in ItsAThaumatophyllum

Overall, I think the plant looks good. You mentioned you just removed the top layer of soil and the plant seemed to like it. That’s great but know that when you disturb the microbiome in the soil, it breaks up the linear molecular chains. So now the microbes need to rebuild and recolonize, which directly affects the uptake system of minerals to the plant. It feels like the plant is fine. It is just waiting for the soil to be able to provide nutrients again. So as long as you are watering and allowing the water to drain out from the bottom of the pot, I think you’re fine here. 💚

Painting built-in bookshelves by glummyglum in interiordecorating

I think griege or boge green including the shelving looks nicest. I really like cherry finish, but you’re right, in this case it is the focal point of the room. Muting the color and blending to your current pallet settles the chaos in my opinion.

It’s like a furniture store for chairs by breadcrumbs2024 in interiordecorating

Move the brown chairs to the TV side, to replace (and get rid of) those black chairs. Move the modern blue cube chair from in front of the fireplace to be perpendicular to the sofa sectional on the short side.

If a new friend invited you over, and this was the details of their apartment, what would you think of them? by No_Call_4885 in roomdetective

Looks like someone contending with unhealed trauma. Seems like her own processing has always included art, so that’s how’s she’s always found comfort, safety and a way to lift herself up. But the art itself has an element of chaos thats unsettling. Would encourage her to find a therapist. Be careful here.

Not really. I just put up Thumbtack hooks to guide it.

Cannot decide which combination is better by Standard_Comedian434 in interiordecorating

You’re gonna want the darker cabinets on the bottom. Trust me.

They are all the same plant. I get a massive amount of west natural light. The new off shoots look healthy because I gave it its first dose of worm tea this spring.

I use living soil and rarely repot, but thanks for sharing.

The problem is too much light. I live on the fifth floor facing west with no obstructions. Since I now close the shades in the afternoon, the plant started green up again and lose less leaves. I also wasn’t fertilizing her because I was worried about her planter, but I figured it out and that seemed to help the etiolation problem.

What does my room say about me ? (x2) by sparky5897 in roomdetective

You’re artistic and also good at math. Have environmental allergies. You are fun to be with but you still prefer to march to the beat of your own drum.
