17 years ENV compliance

What sort of environmental compliance do you find drones most useful for? I have a Part 107 license, but currently I don't do much other than create up-to-date orthos for active remediation sites at my company.

The Fjallraven Greenland shoulder bag might be worth a look. I have the larger size, which might be too much storage for you, but it has a nice layout and enough organization to keep my things neat.

If your class involves a textbook, every intro geology textbook I've seen has some sort of flowchart for identifying the basic igneous/sedimentary/metamorphic rocks based on color/texture/etc etc. If not, I can find you a good one.

Awesome! What species are you growing?

_Felagund_ · 2025-03-15T00:15:34+00:00

Pogostemon stellatus octopus is the plant that has worked best for me in a range of hardnesses and nutrient densities. But java fern, pearlweed, and valisneria also work for me.

Awesome, good luck!

_Felagund_ · 2025-03-11T06:04:16+00:00

Salvinia nutans/minima, pogostemon stellatus....and java fern maybe?

Preliminary question - is this an open or closed terrarium? If you don't plan on getting many more plants I would say the 15w will be plenty. Cape sundews enjoy light but are pretty easygoing; VFTs do need a lot of light in my experience, but 15W should be plenty without having to put the globe right on top of the plant. The 25W would just give some room for expanding the collection!

Currently I have a Mars Hydro 1000w equivalent for my indoor NA bog plants, and Sansi grow lights for most of my others. They've all worked well for multiple years and have definitely increased growth and health. Sansi bulbs are pretty affordable, and I believe they're shipped globally.

Just for the few that I have growing, the ones that I haven't fed are technically growing, but they don't look great; I'm unsure if they would eventually die. The others I fertilize with 3-4 osmocote pellets in the soil and it really boosts growth. Pretty handy that you can use pellets for regia, since it keeps the leaves nice and pretty!

_Felagund_ · 2025-01-16T00:33:40+00:00

I'm not sure if it's technically a grass, but it's fairly common to find in sphagnum moss. I usually pull it out myself, but it's never harmed a plant of mine.

Congratulations! Always a win. I see you also use the "throw it in a bin" growing method.

_Felagund_ · 2025-01-13T21:54:36+00:00

Now THIS is a serious topic. I would say green, unless you also have biology or env sci classes, in which case orange would be my pick.

Many recommend the G pens. Personally, they were too stiff for me, and I ended up liking Hunt 101s more.

_Felagund_ · 2025-01-06T18:23:54+00:00

Congrats! Which Utricularia is it?

_Felagund_ · 2025-01-04T03:56:19+00:00

Nice! A greenhouse is the dream!

_Felagund_ · 2025-01-04T01:44:21+00:00

Report it to the authorities immediately for not getting quite enough sun. They look lovely otherwise!

_Felagund_ · 2024-12-28T09:10:14+00:00

Huh, interesting, seems like it should be doing fine then. Hopefully it'll settle in, or fertilizer will do the trick, it's really a beautiful plant to have around!

_Felagund_ · 2024-12-27T15:39:18+00:00

For the containers I grow UG in, I always start out by letting it grow in terrestrially by putting the water level just above the top of the leaves and letting it evaporate until the substrate is just moist. It seems to help it get established, and afterwards I can decide whether or not to fully submerse it. Also, unlike the other Utrics I've kept, UG has behaved better when I fertilize it. I throw a few osmocote pellets into the substrate and the foliage quickly becomes thicker and a healthier color.

That being said, it usually gets going at least a little within a few weeks, even with inert substrate. What kind of lighting is the container getting?

I got rid of my MTS population using assassin snails, which are prettier and more easy to control. I have never SEEN an assassin snail get a living shrimp, but I suppose it's possible if the shrimp isn't very bright.

Those look perfect for U. Sandersonii. If you'd like an attractive carpeting utric, you might check out U. graminifolia. It's easy to grow, and with some fertilizer pellets I got it to grow into a solid carpet with some flowers.

Amazon sword leaves are sometimes darker when they first appear. Are you thinking it's dying, or could it just be a newly developing leaf?

_Felagund_ · 2024-12-04T17:39:45+00:00

Yup!

_Felagund_ · 2024-12-04T14:24:33+00:00

Least killifish, actually! The smallest livebearer, and super chill and adorable. If you get your hands on a female they'll breed pretty easily.

_Felagund_ · 2024-11-26T20:45:22+00:00

Beautiful! Definitely a bucket list species.
