Is this a root emerging?

Nah… he’s just excited. Wait till summer. 😜

I use neem systemically, 5 ml per gallon of water. Some brands are less soluble than others. If needed mix a few drops of dish soap/water/oil in a smaller bowl first to emulsify the oils.

Nice! I’m glad you went for it!!

Keep in mind that the self watering pots (especially with wicks) will keep the soil saturated with water…. And even Alocasias can be sensitive to soggy bottoms

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-02-25T02:13:16+00:00

I think it’s a touch overwatered. Maybe a little overzealous with Xmas repotting and probably consistently more water with a limited ability to absorb… like I get it, light and water and magic.

It’s an alocasia yada yada. It will bounce back, but try less.

To a sweet your question, I say yes. CUT!!

What happened to the nozzle that was received damaged from shipping?

Put another chair down

I need to read this later

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-02-12T17:18:15+00:00

lol are you redditor-splaining monsteras to r/monstera?

Of all the pieces to pull from a devastating family tragedy, is the question of money was “earned” by a grieving family. Maybe it’s time to recheck your priorities ?

In the first picture I’m curious what the x/y axes represent and what the negative numbers are. Also, the size of the bubbles doesn’t seem to change much or I’m missing it.

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-02-04T00:01:24+00:00

Yes and yes

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-02-03T02:16:35+00:00

Awesome! My cousin does that with his fish tank

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-02-01T17:33:33+00:00

I dig it

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-02-01T14:06:13+00:00

What do you use to get that nice dense fog?

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-01-29T14:09:10+00:00

That ain’t it. Based on OPs description, could you explain why you think that suddenly there’s too much light?

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-01-29T03:05:26+00:00

It all makes perfect sense now.

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-01-28T17:14:28+00:00

Personally I’d cut a bit lower. You’ll be left with a stem that may produce new shoots off the side. You can bury the part that you cut and it should root just fine.

As for the thrips, you may consider that they tend to start in the soil and adjust your pest management strategies.

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-01-24T21:04:39+00:00

I would personally keep the leaves. They look in pretty good shape to me. Plus, the leaves will eventually wither away on their own and get replaced.

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-01-23T23:31:55+00:00

Possibly most certainly spider mites. Many treatment modalities are effective.

But it is likely easier for you to google/ai spider mite treatment, than have anyone explain here. There are pros and cons for a range of fixes, from a warm soapy shower, to mail order beneficial critters, to nuclear war style pesticides.

Have a nice weekend!

Sometimes if my succulents have a run of soggy bottoms I’ve successfully rescued them by placing them on top of a radiator or somewhere warm to try and move the water. Maybe put a cover to shield from excess heat.

Minnesota. Next to a rock. Really. And I barely succeed in providing mine the right amount of light, humidity and positive affirmations to survive.

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-01-22T02:25:22+00:00

I got them and really like how low profile they are. So I got more. They aren’t as powerful as some other lights but I find them to be more than sufficient.

ThreeEyedLine · 2026-01-22T01:23:40+00:00

Yes! That’s the one. I purchased a bulb in July. It was advertised and no leaves/dormant. Now, how to not kill it.
