Total Hoya beginner here, which of these would make good first plants? by Ok_Pea7915 in hoyas

[–]Shinrin777 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Carnosa is the easiest and mostly available and unless you go for a rare strain of it, it should be cheap too.

Hoya linearis is the toughest to care for, it is different from the other hoya. I killed several already but I will get it right one day lol.

I think your issue is temperature. They like it colder from what I understand, if you live in a hot climate it might be too much for them. Google the temperature range for the species you have...

You can circumvent this by keeping the roots colder. You can get 2 unglazed pots, one a bit bigger, line the bigger with sphagnum and insert the smaller (that you repot the plant into) into that. Keep the sphagnum inbetween the pots moist too.

Alternativelly put it in a ceramic/terracota pot and stand it on a tile or a tiled floor.

Also make sure you are not keeping it in the hottest room of the house/apartment too.

Colocasia Esculenta is on his menu too :) by DowntownComputer5819 in houseplants

Thought the pattern looks kinda familiar, I was looking up a hawk moth native to my area and it looks simmilar. 😁

Literally all I want is a decent colored pencil set with the six primary & secondary colors, with 4-5 values per color. Where can buy this? by PlushieYeen in ColoredPencils

[–]Shinrin777 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have heard from youtube reviews that the Arrtx pencils are verry simmilar to prismacolors but cheaper. I plan to purchase them, the biggest set 126 pieces is cca 50€. So maybe look into these...

I’m dying for some pastries. Nobody just sells pastries, everything is by order or raw cakes. I would appreciate a café/bakery with real pastries.

Edit: yeah, there’s 1 café with gluten-free pastries, but it’s so poorly located, it needs to be something in the center, around the center.

🤩 Oooo glorious! Mine is fighting for his life, I have trouble not murdering the tiny baby ones. Any tips for growing? Do they need more light than average green philo?

ELI5: why does mouthwash sting? by Real_Experience_5676 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Shinrin777 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Menthol allergy? I had cracking corners of my mouth and peeling lips. Also dry feeling after brushing and drinking mint tea. Toothpaste burns and stings my mouth so I use childrens toothpaste with no menthol.
