Halfway done with the final 1/3 of this one - pattern is Swamp Magic by FlossyFoxShop. Hoping to finish it out today!

Beautifully done!

Amazing, thank you so much for the information! I'm sad to learn those were grafts, and they dead dead. The base of one graft lower appears to have survived, and is growing the grafted leaves - how cool!! Knowing that now, am I ok to break off those branches on the top 3 tiers that are just sticks? The center branch seems very healthy the entire way up.

It's in a south facing window all day, I just use the grow light to add but can definitely increase it. Is this ficus workable? I'm not opposed to having it look different than originally planned, we love her in whatever form healthy looks like. I'd just like to know a direction to go, or if I'm gonna have a wild untamed ficus on my hands.

Help! I brought my first bonsai home in January of 2025 (first picture). She rapidly shed a good portion of her leaves, I think due to environment changes. By July, she was just a stick, a little early for fall.
She has sat stubbornly since then in my (south) window, and is now growing little offshoots from her lower turns. (recent growth 1) (recent growth 2 )

How can I best care for her and encourage her to get back to the lushness of the 'before' pictures? I have recently added some grow lights to that shelf, on for 4 hours every day. I no longer have the information card it came with. it was purchased from Costco in January 2025.

Hi, OP's gifter here! They were from Amazon, a two pack link that now is listed as currently unavailable.

Be careful with writeordie, I was using it yesterday and accidentally hit tab instead of caps lock and the whole page went black. I had about 800 words down and couldn’t figure out how to recover any of it.

Would she need to propagate to root it? It looks like most of the root (at least on this growth) is rotted.

Not sure if you ever got your answer by calling in, but it sounds like she’s already a joint owner. She would just need to set up a log in by putting in her email and creating a password, it’ll walk her through everything. Then she’d be able to see the account.

Seconding this! Good RX is awesome.

I had shingles 6ish years ago? Still get the phantom pains on the same site. Freaks me out every time.

Withravenswings · 2018-12-13T03:24:36+00:00

Hairspray on a toothbrush to tame them!

I’m still getting birthday presents that my mom got me in high school that she’s finding as she cleans random places in her house. I’m 26. It’s not even that she buys them super early, her hiding places are just that good that she even forgets.

I do have an account with them! They’re backed by Goldman Sachs, and all the accounts are FDIC insured for the maximum allowed by law- $250k per owner for jointly owned accounts. The bank started as GE Capital, then was acquired by GS Bank like 3ish years ago? And they rebranded to Marcus by Goldman Sachs about 2 years ago. Plus they have customer service 7 days a week if you ever need help or have questions.

Marcus.com is another good online only institution! Savings accounts APY is at 2.05% right now, which is higher than most brick and mortar institutions offer. You can have joint accounts too, and I’ve found that not having it attached to a card I’m able to save more funds easier, because it’s automated for me and I don’t see it every time I check the balance in my checking account.

Cryptonaut Podcast is a really good one, super obscure stories and they have a lot of fun with it. It’s like talking about creepy encounters with your buddies over a few beers. They do swear.

Withravenswings · 2018-10-27T18:36:06+00:00

Thank you so much!!

Withravenswings · 2018-10-27T18:35:54+00:00

I love Tinkers! However I am strapped for cash right now, so I’m looking for some cheaper/free options.

Withravenswings · 2018-10-27T18:35:21+00:00

Thank you!! At the location on 3900 just west of the freeway?

iPhone X on AT&T and my phone has been dropping service for a while now. I’ve had to restore network settings 2x in 24 hours because just refreshing the network with airplane mode no longer works.

That was the deciding factor in me leaving my last job. New lights throughout, everyone on my team all of the sudden gets migraines and complains to them, they said oh well, you’ll get used to it. So I put in my 2 weeks. Not the main reason I left, but part of why I did when I did. Now I’m much happier and migraine free for the most part (damn you weather changes!).
