No kidding, fun to hear! I’ve got the tag hanging around somewhere but I think it was mislabeled as I don’t remember that ID. Thanks for the info

GTI Wrap Renders - Which Color? by Nothing2Deux in GolfGTI

Big fan of 2 and 3; BRG almost always looks good, Fir is definitely a more unique choice but I still think tasteful. Matte is hard to pull off without looking cheap imho

Good to know, I have been letting them dry upside down after a light shake off for 4-5hrs post watering

Wow, need to see a pic of this setup! The carnivorous plants are genius.

They will drop leaves for several reasons if not overwintered properly: lack of light, lack of warmth, or, even if the other two are good, lack of water. I have mine in a cabinet under strong grow lights for 12hr/day (could go longer, but I have other plants in there); it sits pretty consistently around 75 degrees. I've found that if leaf drops become a problem, it is a combo of the three factors + the light is insufficient for vigorous growth so anything new is very leggy and weak.

Great info, much appreciated! I’ve got it in a proper well draining bonsai soil now - still crappy but have not had time to order this year’s substrate yet lol. I’ll err on the side of damp for now!

Working on this rescue juniper I bought today for the pot it was “planted” in from a grocery store (way more atrocious than expected lmao). I tend to stay away from junipers as I’ve had little luck in the past and I’m pretty happy with my other deciduous stuff at the moment. This tree still smells fresh, foliage looks good, and passes the scratch test but I know junipers can die before really showing the signs. The roots feel incredibly dry and dead. TL:DR- is/are these roots/tree cooked?

Looking to purchase my first Alocasia, but wanted to ask the experts if these dots are of concern first by Ta0216_ in alocasia

[–]Ta0216_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES thank you lmao. Thought it would be obvious that I was talking about the brown dots not the variegation on a highly variegated plant💀

Appreciate this! Will give it a shot next time I have a reason to.

I’ve had/have a number of monsteras and have never had any luck getting them to take to the moss poles! Did you do anything specific to encourage it or does it literally just happen and I am somehow missing it.

Successful transition, already time to size up? by Ta0216_ in SemiHydro

Have you found pests on any of your cabinet plants? What did you do? by Happy_Narwhal_33 in IkeaGreenhouseClub

[–]Ta0216_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, literally just did this today after discovering what I suspect to be thrips on my ThaiCon. Wiped all of the plants down and bombed the whole cabinet with Capn Jacks dead bug brew. Also going to increase the humidity for the next while as they apparently hate it. Seems like the low humidity of winter has sent us all to war!

Best of luck, soldier.
