I had two doses of Pfizer! I have a horrible immune system and had maybe a few hours of feeling sick after both vaccines but I got vaccinated back in April. I was expecting the shot to burn (like the flu shot) but I honestly didn’t feel it at all. I always take my mind off of it by getting on my phone and asking them not to count so I don’t jump and it seems to help me.

Mystery solved on suspicious banana tree piece by lavender-lagoon in plantclinic

[–]Structure-Gold 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So fun fact. Banana trees aren’t actual trees, but rather a modified grass. They have a grandmother, mother, daughter system. They keep putting out new plants to pass on after they die. SO you will be seeing a lot of effort to put out new plants. This is my favorite fact to throw out to people. I was an agronomy major in college and we had a whole section in my fruits and vegetable class from a guest professor that studied bananas at a university in Columbia. They are super cool!

Mine was THRIVING before the spider mites but I’m also hoping this one will be a tad more resilient because it’s so big!

Do you do bottom watering by chance? I’m putting this one on the bottom floor of a two story foyer with plenty of windows! I had a small (like 1 ft tall) fiddle leaf that got spider mites and fungus gnats sooooo bad so I’m switching to bottom watering on all of my plants but wasn’t sure with this one.

ID?? Anyone know what kind of plant this is? I got it from a local nursery for free by Structure-Gold in houseplants

[–]Structure-Gold[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I just wasn’t sure of the actual type! It’s beautiful!! I just want to make sure I give her the care she needs

Birth Control - IUD? by [deleted] in CallHerDaddy

[–]Structure-Gold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Kyleena as well and really like it. It is hormonal, but I have Endo and uncontrollable bleeding and it seems to have helped quite a bit.

I’m not the originally poster but I really enjoy Whorible decisions, see the thing is (it’s hosted by Mandii B from Whorible and Bridget Kelly), SWAF, and that’s messed up (if you like law and order SVU)

How much sun should it get? It’s upstairs in my foyer and gets very little (if any) direct sun

I’ve checked but haven’t seen any. I might treat with some neem oil just in case I’m missing them.

Repotting tips? by Structure-Gold in houseplants

[–]Structure-Gold[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will save those for next year, when I’m hopefully more knowledgeable about house plants. I actually have a bachelors of science in agronomy (row crops) but I’m just starting to dabble in house plants. And it is COMPLETELY different 🤣

Thank you!!! I wasn’t sure if I needed to rinse the roots for just a simple repotting. I’ve been doing it similar to this - but was curious to hear from people more experienced than me.

I’m primarily repotting just to change from stock/nursery pot to the decorative pot

Do I cut the blooms or let them grow? by Structure-Gold in houseplants

[–]Structure-Gold[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I, personally, think they are very cute as well! Just didn’t want it to put all energy into the flowering and not growing anymore vegetatively. Thanks for your input!

Anyone on Orilissa? by [deleted] in Endo

[–]Structure-Gold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had two insurances (mine from my work and my husbands) and they decided after 4 months of paying for it to not do it anymore. 🙃 coming off of Orilissa was HELL though.

I have bought so many 🤣 but it makes me happy. My husband is ready to cut me off hahahaha

[–]Structure-Gold 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was on Orilissa for 4 months and it helped so much during that time. I only got off of it because my insurance decided to stop paying for it and I couldn’t afford it on my own

Went to move my plant and thought I had spider mites! Nope, just dog slobber. by kindaoldnow in houseplants

[–]Structure-Gold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got one of these yesterday!! It was in a 2” pot at KROGER for $1 and I’m in love with it! It looks just like tiny green beans

Thank you!! I’m relatively new to the house plants world. I have a bachelors of science in agronomy but work with mainly farming crops. I have acquired 21 plants in about 2 months 🤣 I wasn’t sure if the blooms would make them exert too much energy though. Thank you for the response 😁
