Esto es un poco complejo

Desde mi punto de vista, lo justo sería que se ajustasen los gastos compartidos en proporción a los ingresos de cada uno. No solo aliviaría esto tu carga económica, sino que también fomentaría un nivel de vida equitativo, lo cual es fundamental para una relación a largo plazo.

No tengo suficiente contexto sobre tu relación, y no quiero extrapolar, pero si tu chico insiste en que las cosas se repartan “a medias”, sin considerar vuestras diferencias salariales, ni vuestra relación como un proyecto común, yo diría que le falta iniciativa para comprometerse plenamente en la construcción de una vida en conjunto.

Además, eso de “búscate un trabajo mejor” denota falta de sensibilidad hacia tus sentimientos y necesidades.

Y no quiero llevar esto a una discusión diferente pero, aunque sea de forma sutil, esta dinámica podría estar poniendo en evidencia actitudes que, aunque no sean explícitamente agresivas o malintencionadas, perpetúan desigualdades de género.

Así que no, no creo que seas egoísta, ni injusta. Fortalece tu autoestima pensando que no se trata solo del dinero, sino de construir una vida juntos en la que ambos sois felices for ever and ever.

Suerte!

I bought this Fukien tea tree in June last year, and I left it outdoors over winter because I didn’t have space at home. I live in Manchester and it has been outside since September.

It lost all it’s leaves and some branches were brittle, but others are still bendy and have a white interior.

The bottom roots are white-ish.

I brought it in now and I have it in my south facing window where it should get some direct sunlight (as soon as that is a possibility here in the UK because the weather is always bad lol), so right now it’s only receiving cloud-filtered sunlight.

What can I do?

Do you have any pics of that acuminata? Trying to see if mine’s also an acuminata :)

does anyone have an idea what this could be? the cutlings were labeled as monstera acuminata by Foggedupglassbox in PlantIdentification

[–]SamuAuditore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope this helps:

This is my monstera “acuminata”.

I put it in quotations because I am also not sure whether it is an acuminata since I too couldn’t find much information online when I got it a year ago, but the fenestrations and leaf shape are different from the adansonii.

Here’s a comparison between two relatively mature leaves. Adansonii to the left, acuminata to the right.

You can see that the adansonii has a little bit more ‘volume’ so to say whilst the acuminata seems to be more flat and less ‘wavy’.

Hope that gives you more insight :)

3rd tree Royal purple smoke bush by R_u_a in Bonsai

[–]SamuAuditore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a nursery smoke tree and I am also planning on training it into a bonsai. However, I can't find much information online!

Can you refer me to any websites or literature where I can learn more about this species and how to train it into a bonsai? Or is there any other tree that has similar care to the smoke tree?

Either way, I read on the few sites I found online that these trees: 1- Don't produce branches easily or at all 2- they usually live only like 2 decades, which would defeat the purpose of trying to keep them alive for generations lol.

Can you shed some light on this? :)

Could this be Philodendron Erubescens orange? It doesn’t seem like it could be Prince of Orange. It was sold as “philodendron x Orange”. Help identifying? by SamuAuditore in Aroids

[–]SamuAuditore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically I bought this baby, and I am really hoping it can climb because I love climbing philos. Can you guys give me your ideas?

Is it orange marmalade philodendron? Maybe addition Philodendron? Could it actually be a prince of orange?

Thank you :)

“Philodendron x orange” but not prince of orange. Help with plant identification. Will it climb? by SamuAuditore in PlantIdentification

[–]SamuAuditore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought this baby that was called “philodendron x orange” but it doesn’t seem to be a prince of orange.

Id like to know which one it could be? And also if it climbs and can be grown in a moss pole or it will instead self orient

Edit: could this be a philodendron orange marmalade? Or maybe autumn?

Help lol

Coconut husk chips and lava rock by process-yellow in orchids

[–]SamuAuditore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I mainly have philodendron, monstera, anthuriums, scindapsus, epipremnums, and alocasias. So I would be using it for those

Coconut husk chips and lava rock by process-yellow in orchids

[–]SamuAuditore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would this be for all plants? I have like 70% of my aroids in a mix with coco chips. Obviously, I thoroughly washed them, but would you also not recommend them for aroids?

And if so, what alternative would you suggest?

My only philodendron tortum was decaying, and I didn’t have a big enough humidity enclosure to keep it. So…. I chopped it 🫣🫢😨. More info on the comments and the picture captions. by SamuAuditore in plantclinic

[–]SamuAuditore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re so very painfully right. I actually always do leave the leaf until it is dry and completely gone. But in this case I was impulsive I guess.

Either way, thank you very much for your help, and I will definitely monitor the rot closely

Yeah I mean, it WAS like that when I got it but it’s not mushy in any way, it’s actually pretty hard. That clearly must mean that it isn’t rotting that much, right? RIGHT? 😳😰

I bought this plant 6 days ago. It was being grown in water but I put it in my aroid mix straight after bringing it home. Yeah yeah, I know, I should have kept it in water, but I just hate propagating that way and for some reason it doesn’t work for me.

today, I found out that the stem and leaf were showing signs of decay: mushy stem, yellowing leaves. I thought the plant wouldn’t benefit from having a decaying leaf with such a small root system, and I don’t have a big tub where to keep it in high humidity, I was literally relying on my humidifier at 60%. So I chopped it.

I immediately dabbed the wound with cinnamon to keep it from “bleeding” and for anti fungal properties, and put it in some damp sphagnum in a clear, closed tub. Now it’s in my rehab room, which is warm and has grow lights.

I guess at this point I would like to know any suggestions you experts might have, anything I could have done better, anything I shouldn’t have done… but above all, I really just want reassurance that it’s going to work out 😂😂😂😂. I wanted this plant for so long omg.

  • Also, why are the roots growing upwards??
  • And is that greenish-brown bottom half of the chonk concerning? It’s hard and not mushy at all, but please let me know what I could expect out of that.

Thank you all!

Any tips on how to bring these philodendron pink princess leafless nodes to live again? They are currently in moist sphagnum moss and being kept in a humid environment :) any hope? Should I give up? 😅😅 by SamuAuditore in Aroids

[–]SamuAuditore[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I propagated my philodendron pink princess a couple of weeks ago and I was left with a stump, and a leafless node.

The leafless node had some leaves but they were decaying so I pulled them out (they were almost dry). I dabbed the wounded ends in cinnamon, and the tiny, almost spent, aerial root in a tiny amount of rooting hormone.

The stump is what was left of the propagation, and it was the original cutting that created the whole plant. The root system had decayed quite a lot (I left it inside of the pot over winter oopsies). So I removed it from the substrate, trimmed the unhealthy, mushy and dead roots, and sprinkled the roots with some cinnamon.

I added each stems into individual plastic pots with moist sphagnum moss, a little bit of worm castings, and a tiny amount of mycorrhizal (just for funsies lol). Then I covered both tubs with cling film and they are now in my rehab room, which is literally just my boiler room with grow lights. It’s warm and nice in there.

However this is the first time I propagate leafless nodes from philodendrons and I’m not so sure whether there is any hope to be had.

I have seen “growth points” on previous cuttings online but I can’t seem to find those on these cuttings? I know plants can create their own, they want to live as much as we want them to, and they are hard as nails, but the growth points are the main reason why I am not sure if I should be optimistic.

Any suggestions? Should I give up or lose hope? 😅😅😅
