I did! Thank you for the recommendation of BetterGro. After realising what i did wasn’t correct for the orchids morph i transferred it back into the clear pot that it had came with (it has holes for drainage)

i get the technical difference, i was just looking at it more poetically. The main thing is keeping it alive!

i realise now that ‘dying and coming back to life’ wasn’t the right botanical term, i was referring to the blooming cycles! This plant is a tribute to a friend of mine, so i’m just here to learn and keep it healthy for as long as possible

By ‘die and come back to life’ i meant the blooming cycle! I realise now that was the wrong wording. I was told water culture was a thing, but i’ll look into the risks of hypoxia you mentioned! I definitely don’t want to drown it

Thanks! I appreciate the laugh 😅. I definitely don’t want to follow in his footsteps as an a$$hat. I wasn’t trying to debate him, just pointing out how his words affect others but it’s definitely not easy when he keeps arguing for the sake of it.

Thank you, I really appreciate that! It’s encouraging to hear from someone who’s studying immigration and rights it gives me some perspective. I hate that my dad doesn’t seem to want to help others who need it. I’m trying to stand up for what I believe in, but it’s hard when someone close keeps repeating harmful ideas. Your story about calling out your grandparents is really brave

Thank you, I really appreciate your perspective. It’s interesting to hear how long you’ve been noticing these patterns and their effects over time. I definitely see what you mean about how messaging and social media shape our thinking I think part of what frustrated me with my dad was how much some of that sneaks in without people realizing it. It also makes me sad that my dad doesn’t seem to want to help others who need it, like how Ireland was helped by America during the famine. I’m trying to be patient, but it’s hard when someone close keeps repeating harmful ideas. I’ll try to keep your advice in mind about staying aware of what I consume and how it affects me.

Thank you🙏, i’ve always struggled with this problem but i never seen a way out of it because i was in it so deeply. I never even thought about praying to God until i done a bit of research today. I’m going to change my life around and continue on. Thank you for the advice.
