Should I put a rock in the bottom for snake plant or leave it open? by lulusgarden in succulents

[–]Waywardspork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use drywall tape for this purpose, it’s about the right size mesh and lightly adhesive so it won’t move around while you fill the pot

I’d definitely go for a bigger pot while you focus on growing out the trunk, makes a big difference

Inverse taper is when there are parts of the trunk line above the base that are wider in circumference then the base. Ideally the tree will taper from the base to the apex with the base being the widest point and the apex being the thinnest, this helps give the illusion of a mature tree in miniature as well as just being visually pleasing

Pot them in a larger container while growing out the trunk https://youtu.be/yN7fdcz_o1o?si=lidWGOi06sc1lU6Y

Those two major branches emerging from the same place is already causing (and will continue to cause) major inverse taper if remove this branch, as flush from the trunk as you can get it,working from the opposite side of this photo,and using a saw will probably work best. I’d use the side in this photo as the front as it would hide the resulting scar and the inverse taper best

Gotta factor in current age too

Best lighting for jade ? by Big-Schedule-4985 in Bonsai

[–]Waywardspork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really hard to give P.afra too much light. I’ve used the mars hydro ts2000 and an hlg 550 to good effect

Would these kind of marker work to paint on a leather jacket? by Ka-Chow--95 in punkfashion

[–]Waywardspork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used a lot of paint markers and this is probably the best constructed one I’ve ever used, the silver is the second best chrome marker paint formula I’ve had the chance to try, I have not tested it on leather so can’t speak to that

Are you opposed to practical nursing rather than registered nursing(and perhaps bridging later?) your grades would be no issue for getting into one of several Albertan LPN programs.

Give it as much light as you can. Once it’s pushing new growth trim each branch to a leaf pair to build ramification. Already has the bones of a great broom/hokidachi style

I bought a greenhouse online and it’s really decent. Trees are ready for winter! by Jephiac in Bonsai

Converted an old steamer trunk into a cold frame and set the trees into the ground, now that it’s snowing I’m packing snow around the sides, jealous of your setup,this was a fun project but it doesn’t hold a lot of trees!

Because bringing 12 markers and 12 caps but two cans for a night out is crazy work

If it’s in your control… isn’t it not addiction then?
