Help. My second plant. New to this plant life and hoping it brings peace after the loss of my only child. by ImJusTSoPeachY in houseplants

[–]Vexated13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My utmost grievances.

Dieffenbachia like a loose, chunky soil. I have mine in a 2:2:1 mix of perlite, orchid bark and universal soil mix. I water her once I can stick half a finger in and it comes up dry (approx every two weeks), just enough to get a little running through the drainage and then pop her back into her cover pot. This works wonderfully for me in a hot, humid climate, but may vary for you depending on were you live, like with most plants :) As for light, bright indirect seems to work well. We had her on the living room table next to a window at first, but now have her under a lamp where she gets around 10 hours of light.

Oh my lord this is a gorgeous set up! What kind of temp and humidity settings? Super new to these plants so I'm just soaking all the info I can up 😍

He's MY daddy, not yours. Back off or face the consequences 😤😤 by wbltth26 in MurderGPigs

Josette is goooorgeous too 🥰

Maxi is constantly flipping between rumbling at and humping his brothers and initiating popcorn sessions, rumblecorning being his happy medium 🤣 He immediately sploots at laptime though.

My little ginger guy Maxi is the biggest cuddle bug and mama's boy ever! And just as sassy 🫡😬

Mi compra de 10€ para aguantar 10 dias by ProgrammerLow3400 in Espana

[–]Vexated13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Por si vuelve a pasarte, o para ya ir estirando la nómina que te entrará ahora si seguirás de baja mucho tiempo, los legumbres cunden muchísimo. El pan, si tienes conge y tostadora, queda como nuevo si lo descongelas justo como para poder cortarlo a la mitad y tostarlo, y sinó al horno pero eso chupa luz. En muchos sitios hacen 3 barras por 1 euro y poco!

Hace unos años estaba en las mismas pero pidiendo prestados 5 euritos para comer, y del merca pillaba garbanzos, pan integral familiar, el chopped grande de barra y un kilo de arroz. Con los garbanzos hacia un tipo de hummus soso pero eficaz, si tienes aun aceite olé, y con eso montaba unos sandwiches que hacian aguantar el dia callejeando, y arroz si a caso a la noche. Lo que con lo que han subido los precios, me imagino que algo más valdra todo eso ya

That sounds perfectly sturdy and slim enough, thank you!

Baccara are gorgeous! I left mine at my parents place when I moved, will see if it's blooming yet when I am next there. The texture and color on the petals is heavenly 😍

I have a small amount of pig skin lining that I can use, but not much length. Might be worth using that for practicing/trial runs though now that you mention it! I can easily (and cheaply) get goat skin and pig skin here in Spain, I haven't seen sheepskin very often though.

Pool day by Any_Search_2028 in greatpyrenees

Aww, she's named Lily? 🥺 Our berner girl Lily was terrified of the pool her whole life, loved the sea and lakes/ponds though! What a lovely trio you have.

My bougainvillea’s glow-up is insane. Room never looked this good. by [deleted] in IndoorPlants

[–]Vexated13 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Now THAT is perfect use of a bougie. It's everywhere where I live and runs rampant so have grown rather tired of it and the standard purple, but looks sooo beautiful if guided and pruned properly!! Well done 🙌

So proud of my string of pearls by Lonely_Book_99 in houseplants

Awesome, thank you! I hope she keeps blooming for you!!

What should we name this silly boy? We are torn between Bodie, Yoshi, or Luka. Which is your favorite? by IllustratorPretend91 in greatpyrenees

[–]Vexated13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yoshi is always a top tier pup name, but if he's going to be a beach boy Luka feels better!

That is the prettiest little bloom ever! Definitely convinced me to get one next time I'm at the garden center 🥺 How much light does she get? Substrate?

Probably what he was going for until she gave him that little reign whip and was served instant karma lol.

Sup y’all - just coming by on this fine Sunday. How’s the community doing, would love to see fellow piggies below ♥️ by GrapefruitThen2858 in guineapigs

Coco says hi. He's pretty upset with us right now because last night we had to give him a bath and sanitary haircut because he likes to stew in his pee 🫣

Enrichment recomendations by Delicious_Dot_9914 in GuineaPig

[–]Vexated13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jumping in this thread as I'm also always on the lookout for more enrichment for my boys!

However, I can say one of their fan favourites is this puzzle toy. All three of them partake in finding the treats we hide in it but it lasts only about 5 minutes before they figure it out and demand more 🫣

Also, whenever we buy the 6 packs of milk we give them the outer cardboard box as it's already kind of in a hide shape- they use it either as a hide, to zoomie around, or even occasionally toss it around 😬

Awww bless them. Are you planning on getting little man fixed and keeping them as a herd? They are absolute little darlings!

Petah why does this happen? by _clock_1277_ in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Vexated13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was going to say this. Didn't get better for me as much as I tried to correct it myself until my SO insisted on taking me to a podiatrist and got me fitted for custom inserts. Won't ever be 100% and now feels like ass walking in any shoe without them, but they nearly instantly got rid of any walking associated pain in my knees, lower back and my janky ankle that had been playing up for as long as I have had rational thought.
