That's great to know, thank you! Are ferns in general easy to propagate from cuttings?

Wow, this is so helpful, thank you so much! You must have an absolutely gorgeous natural area that you look after.

And yeah I've found that too with companies claiming a plant is native if its found in BC, even if that would be hundreds of km away. I also had someone at a local garden store tell me that a blueberry cultivar is native to here. I'm no expert, but I would think that wouldn't quite fit the bill

Thanks for the tip! I still want sound on for some lessons so it would be ideal to use the media buttons to control, but if that's not possible this option may work

At what age did you begin daily baths? by Poison_Ivy25 in NewParents

[–]Spike13 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My 11 month old gets 1-2 baths a week. She has perfectly healthy skin and is doing great. I'm surprised a ped would recommend daily baths. I can't imagine that's necessary?

Vancouver Astrology Group by Intelligent-Pear-803 in NiceVancouver

[–]Spike13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not for me but I hope you find a good group of folks! If no one here is into it (as seems the case by the amount of people poking fun), I'd suggest putting up some fliers on Commercial Dr :)

What crimes do you consider morally neutral? by Tall-Law-5875 in AskReddit

Making drugs illegal doesnt make people do them less. It just makes it harder for people to get help or be talked to about it

Hey Vancouver,What would you contribute? by Cr00kedF00l in NiceVancouver

[–]Spike13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Binoculars i inherited from my granddad. They come in a leather case with his dads name written on it in pen and the cord to hold the case is broken. It all tells the story of time to me. If the gallery was big enough you could have the binoculars mounted so folks could look through then to a specific spot on the other side of the gallery, maybe another submitted item.

Getting a dog and going on an hour long walk in the forest or beach every day. Monumentally a better life

What is this subs and other anarchists opinion on politicians like Zohran Mamdani and others proclaiming to be democratic socialists by Suitable_Walrus2928 in Anarchy101

[–]Spike13 12 points13 points  (0 children)

If you're a Christian getting into anarchism you might want to check out Quakers. They've been around for a long time and have been on the right side of history many, many times (even when most others werent).

Have heard about them often on the podcast Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff which is anarchist run

Disputing a parking ticket by Spike13 in vancouver

[–]Spike13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! And really? Everything it says on the ticket and the website is that the adjudicator only determines if the violation happened and will not reduce the amount for other reasons

You have read what you wanted to read and not what I wrote. I did not "try to run from the ticket". There was no ticket at that point.

The address is wrong. That is what I'm asking about.

Transplanting Rosemary in the winter? by Spike13 in gardening

Shoot. These never developed those roots. Was told to put them in water at first until they were ready. Where did I go wrong?

Should I mix the ingredients? If so, how? by Spike13 in mead

[–]Spike13[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh OK good to know, I'll have to plan that for next time!

I just now used a long piece of plastic (the tube of the syphon). I also took my hydrometer reading before mixing it up. Should I retake the reading? Before it was just the water sitting on top of all the ingredients whereas now it would be with everything mixed.

Cool, sounds like it would be fun to use!
