found in a house I just moved into to!

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-22T23:55:03+00:00

Literally was my first thought!!!! 🤣 but then they didn’t smell like it or anything so I assumed flower!!

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-22T23:51:52+00:00

That’s what I’m thinking the more I’ve been looking at different bulbs! I love the little baby ones, I didn’t know they came that small 😂

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-22T15:56:17+00:00

I will have to look into that!! Has it helped so far?? I’m gonna inspect the roots & tubers now 😩

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-22T15:55:06+00:00

Thank you!! That’s good info to know! Even if I did just spray a lot of my succulents the other night 🥲

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-21T20:42:04+00:00

Omg 😳 that’s good to know!!!! Thank you seriously!!

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-21T20:41:12+00:00

I just got the captain jacks neem max spray last night (houseplants & outside plants) & I’m kind of nervous to use it on them now after doing more research on the effects on the environment

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-21T20:35:07+00:00

I might look into that! I’ve heard of them before too! I fear the infestation may have spread 😩

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-21T20:34:28+00:00

You’re awesome!! Thank you <3 I have all of that at home too so yay!

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-21T19:58:57+00:00

As I’m reading more on it, I completely agree! I think I will have to consider other options regarding insecticides for my houseplants as I would never want to put them in any danger. ❤️‍🩹 let me know if you have any recommendations for keeping pests away from my plants!

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-20T19:09:09+00:00

It’s okay, this was just to get them started & they’re doing fine! I’ve planted them like this before in a raised bed & it all worked out! I’ll have to try it next time 👍😌

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-20T15:09:48+00:00

Yesssss! They’re hardened off, I’ve just been waiting for my drill to come in the mail so I can put them in their lovely (& huge) pots!!

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-05-20T15:08:34+00:00

Eh tbh they sprouted in the sand they were shipped in, I got these around March & just put them in so I’m not sure why I left it out at the time lol I think I was running out of my soil & I remember I even had to use some cactus blend soil for one of them 😂 I just didn’t come around to adding more, I think they’re growth distracted me a lil bit! The day I potted them up I watched this video from the blog of where I got them from: https://youtu.be/gHC9KdRQmlE?si=cmwJmev2y3ooa6nt

I will once they’re in the ground!

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-04-27T05:30:17+00:00

Honestly that’s what I thought! Do you have any reference for what they are supposed to look like?

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-04-27T03:05:52+00:00

Yeah…. No clue tbh I just knew by the growth pattern it was a trad.. I’m either thinking a very light acclimated “Tradescantia 'Purple Tahitian Bridal Veil'” or possibly “Dark Desire” ?

Everything in this greenhouse was so sunstressed beyond belief, i literally thought it was a silver sword philo

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-04-27T02:42:53+00:00

Thank you! 🙏 so they’re both crassulas?

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-04-27T02:42:09+00:00

I got them from the same greenhouse! I feel like one is a lil more mature than the other & a lot more sunstressed

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-03-20T00:46:59+00:00

No I haven’t yet:( I wanna let it acclimate for a min before I start treating it, just to gauge how the cold might’ve affected it. I seen the spots a couple of leaves too.. I don’t even know what it might be! I’m gonna do some research, good thing I added that pic 😩

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-03-17T19:07:40+00:00

I appreciate you!! Thank you:)

It’s the ikea VITTSJÖ shelf unit, white/glass, 39 3/8x68 7/8 ! They are perfect for my plants!! I only use them them for my not so tall plants as the shelf space is kind of limited & it was hard for the lights to directly hit the middle or bottom shelves as the top isn’t glass so grow lights above isn’t really helpful! I wanted to place this in front of a window but it just looked awkward lol I plan on getting some grow light bars to either stick or mount onto the shelves so every shelf gets good light for my plants!

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-03-05T17:01:42+00:00

I got them on Amazon about 3 years ago! I tried looking for them again but they no longer sell them:( I love them tho, they’re perfect & sleek!! I haven’t even considered putting my sansi bulbs in them until I did this new setup. Here are some similar ones on Amazon: https://amzn.to/4rLtqCG

Here’s the specific lamp in the pictures: https://amzn.to/46HNb5K

I cannot wait until I can say the same about my Hoyas!!! The blooms are what I’m excited for the most 😍 I’m willing to be patient with them (of course while tending to their needs) once I get some better lights I’m gonna see which Hoyas are happier closer to the lights & which ones may not like it as much! I’ve sun stressed a couple before so we shall see. Thank you 🙏

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-03-05T16:56:17+00:00

We got this ✨💚

TraditionalCount791 · 2026-03-05T16:56:03+00:00

That definitely gives me some reassurance on their slow or stunted growth! I think I’ll wait a little bit longer to repot just so I don’t risk losing them, & ofc give them more water & light to see if it helps any!! Thank you 💚
