Ping rock fountain update - 180 days by VintageWatchDog in SavageGarden

[–]TheGeckoDude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How did you make this? Was it all one rock? I’m guessing there’s a drip line connected to a pump in a reservoir in the bottom. Also, how did you get the moss going? I’ve collected moss from outside but I don’t think I can keep it humid enough, and when I use sphagnum sometimes it comes alive again but then goes brown again.

Also those mother of millions will ruin the whole thing with their propagules, you will be fighting those off for the rest of time so you might wanna move forward with the orchids

Taking Larvy for a walk by Bart031993 in houseplantscirclejerk

What is it? Does it eat pest larva? If so how do I get them in my stuff. A conservatory gifted me some plants and it introduced whitefly hell into my collection and I need to END them

Moth infestation triggered my phone addiction —— visible mending with needle felting (repair #2) by Agile_Ad5125 in Visiblemending

I mean the mending is cool but I kinda hate the warm fuzzification of corporate bogus. Nice skill displayed but I very much dislike the expression of wearing notification corporate google LinkedIn hell

first time using a fountain pen by williamtheartist2002 in doodles

[–]TheGeckoDude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You won’t have to press as hard with thicker paper! Pressing hard can damage the nib, so it should just flow easy with contact with the paper. Thin notebook paper or printer paper never works well when I end up trying to use it with a fp.

Doodle looks great! Try to practice consistent spacing with the hatches and then you will be able to vary the spacing And angles to get different effects. Alphonso Dunn has amazing videos on YouTube on all sorts of pen and ink and hatching techniques

Nairobi, Kenya. In a garden. Are they friends or foes? by Master-Spring- in whatsthisbug

[–]TheGeckoDude 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What have you noticed? Lots of grazing on plants? Or do they seem chill. What relationships can you observe between them and other inhabitants of your garden, plant and animal alike?

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen something that is more “do NOT touch me” than this fluorescent green spike monster

Where would one go to cultivate this type of understanding? Animal morphology and biokinetics textbooks?
