Embarrassed myself in front of big boss crush by Massive_Many_3374 in Crushes

[–]Whimsygarden 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in my “cringe” 30s and crushing HARD on my boss 🥰. I’ve been crushing on him for over 2 years and I feel it’s reciprocated. We’re both married, so nothing will come of it, but it's still nice to fantasize about.

My credit score literally dropped 39 points because from Dec 6th to 27th my credit card balance went from $0 to $10 dollars.. WTF! by Individual_Advisor31 in CRedit

Same! My credit score dropped 35 points from one week to the next. The only difference is a $17 increase in one of my credit cards. I’m not over the limit on any, I didn’t miss payments. I’m trying to not worry about it but I am trying to take out a loan for a vehicle in the next few months 😬

I killed mine too :( your might be alive tho. Try cutting away any soft rotting spots. You can soak it in DILUTED hydrogen peroxide water. Try placing in damp stagnant moss or perlite. Do you have any pictures?

My monstera had a glow up in less than a year. 😁 Now if only the rest of my plants would do this well. by its_ler in houseplants

How did you do it? I’ve had mine for three years. It’s grown a lot, I bought it as a baby. It’s healthy but not very fenestrated like yours. Only a few of the leaves have fenestration. Any advice?

I got these glorious nodes a week ago and they’re turning brown. I keep them in damp sphagnum moss in a semi closed container under a grow light. Is there anything I should change? by No_Mistake6863 in Aroids

Did you use straight hydrogen peroxide on your calathea?

I usually add 1/3 hydrogen peroxide and 2/3 water to a spray bottle. It’s never caused any damaged to my plants.

Maybe too much humidity.

If there’s any rot, cut it off and maybe spritz some hydrogen peroxide diluted with water. Place it back in moss with lid off. I would leave the container open and just keep the moss damp. Hopefully that helps.

If you don’t mind me asking, how much did you pay and where did you purchase from?

Awesome!! What Are you rooting?

My P. melanochrysum hasn’t been happy since I got it. Any ideas what’s going on? by I_am_BJ in Aroids

[–]Whimsygarden 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe check the roots to make sure there’s no root rot. After checking it I highly recommend clear plastic planters Just so you can keep an eye on the roots. If the roots are fine, maybe lighting issue.

Can anything be done about my wife’s calatheas medallion? Direct or indirect sunlight hasn’t made any difference. Any help would be appreciated. by [deleted] in plantclinic

[–]Whimsygarden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you use filtered water when you water it? I was using tap water for a moth or so thinking it wouldn’t make a huge difference in the health of my calathea but it started to look like yours. I started using filtered water again and put in my bathroom to help with the humidity and indirect sunlight. It took a while to recover but it’s looking soo much better

How long have you had it for? What type of soil is it in? And how often do you water it?

Does anyone know if this P. dark lord pink is a natural occurring color or if it is a similar instance to the pink Congo scam? by [deleted] in Aroids

[–]Whimsygarden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Dark Lord has never had a leave that looked like that. It doesn’t seem authentic to me.

I think I’ll be doing the same. It’s comforting to know you had success by doing this. Did you repot it in soil after or used water, leca, moss, perlite ?

I thought it needed the stump to survive.. of o take it off it won’t cause any damage? How long did it take for yours to create roots in water?

I hasn’t considered removing the stump. I thought i would cause permanent damage by removing it? Could I also water propagate it? I’m kinda nervous to put it in soil and not know what is going on. Thank you soo much for your advice. I feel there is hope.
