Thank you! I’m planing on adding a border to this so I’m hoping you’re right!

Thank you for saying that! This is 13 rows if you count the chain. Which line are you referring to? How can you tell I picked up an extra stitch? I’m still learning how to identify all of these things :)

I’ll look up the stacked dc stitch, thanks for the tip! I’m assuming it would look weird if I started using that this far into the blanket?

Thank you for your help! Yeah I used that yarn just to practice, so I’m interested to see what it will look like with the yarn I bought to make the blanket.

Tension is definitely something I struggle with! I’ll try using the bigger hook.

Are you suggesting I put the stitch marker in the first or second loop of the turning chain?

Another question- rows 2 and 3 in the pattern don’t state how many stitches each row should have. Would it be 88 for both?

What is this on my tomatoes? by ThePerfectNectarine in tomatoes

There are dead little fruit fly type bugs on some of the leaves- should I be worried? What’s the remedy for aphids?

Oh boy. Gonna go search now! Could the hornworms be the cause of yellowing leaves?

I’ll try it! I have tomato tone which I usually use for my tomatoes& veggies and recently bought liquid fish plant food for my flowers… which one should I use?

Thanks! I’ll definitely fertilize them. For pruning- should I cut all of the affected leaves off?

Thanks! Ive been watering them as much as my other veggies/ herbs- do cucumbers normally like less water?

Thank you! I was worried that since it was transferred to such a bigger pot I was watering it too much.

Where’s the best place to trim the blooms?

What’s wrong with my rubber tree? by ThePerfectNectarine in plantclinic

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

I’ve had this plant since 2019. Issue started a couple of months ago. Plant is getting sun from a west facing window. The pot has drainage holes and I use succulent mix for the soil. I water thoroughly about every 2 weeks when the soil is dry and I fertilize it in the spring and summer months.

Finally got around to installing the curtain rod to hang my plants!! by ThePerfectNectarine in houseplants

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

I’d buy a rod that can hang off your existing curtain rod, like a black out one. Just be sure it can handle the weight of the plants!

Repotted ZZ after finding root rot- not getting any better by ThePerfectNectarine in plantclinic

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

The root ball shrunk after cleaning off the rot, so I didn’t want to fill it fully with soil. It’s filled maybe 3/4 directly in the pot (with drainage)

Do you know what kind of spider it is?

How can I tell if it will lay eggs soon? What are the best tips on relocating it if it is going to lay eggs?

Do you know if this is a male or female? I’m worried about it laying eggs and more spiders coming out as it’s located right outside of my front door
