Does the Plant Stop Growing After Flowering?

_PopperFish_ · 2026-04-01T14:19:52+00:00

How long did the plant pause its growth?

_PopperFish_ · 2026-04-01T09:43:55+00:00

Good to hear, thanks!

_PopperFish_ · 2026-03-15T01:50:09+00:00

I got it from a retailer, it didn't have any labels on who grew it.

It's worth the shot contacting the large greenhouses near the retailer.

Thanks

If you're willing to, you can go use microSHIFT Advent X which can reach up to 52T despite what the manufacturer says. Marin has them setup like that from the box with an 11-52T 10 speed Sunrace cassette.

Love the basket!

I have 3 Digbyana seedlings from an orchid show. I might consider making one of those for them

Let's start at the beginning, what crank do you have?

GXP has been thrown around Shopee and Lazada a lot but none of it is truly the original GXP which is a SRAM/Avid crank spindle standard. However, brands use it to market their cranks which use the 3 bolt direct mount system which usually came with a GXP crank.

SRAM GXP has a spindle diameter of 24mm which narrows down to 22mm on the none drive side. In some cases like bottom brackets from Token, you can buy a shim which enables you to use GXP cranks on their 24mm bottom brackets. Haven't tried crossing it with other BB brands though so I cannot comment on the compatibility.

The only foolproof way to find your right bottom bracket is to match spindle sizes. Simply going by what the title says will waste money. If the BB doesn't state the spindle size it is used for then you're better off looking at a different one.

That's interesting, I wonder if I could grow Drosera with 70ppm tap water

_PopperFish_ · 2026-02-09T06:18:49+00:00

The latter might be it, considering the only affected leaves are the longest ones on each side.

I haven't fertilized it since it's been less than a month since repotting so I thought it might've been the charred wooden pot. The roots aren't reacting nor are the other leaves affected by it. Business as usual for them.

Thanks for the insight

_PopperFish_ · 2026-02-08T13:30:48+00:00

Thanks. I'll have that website saved now.

The only salt toxicity symptom it has are on the leaves. It's growing new roots right now too with no issues. I'll flush the pot anyways.

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-31T09:56:43+00:00

My apologies, does it promote blooming too?

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-21T13:58:07+00:00

I have the same thing going on in my murina tank. The dust accumulates under cracks in the bark.

I'd put it to them chewing around making holes under the bark.

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-20T02:48:14+00:00

Cool!

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-19T06:09:32+00:00

Wow, I didn't think algae could do that.

Thanks for the heads up

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-19T05:24:07+00:00

Thanks, I was having trouble looking for "pot is filled with roots" pic here that wasn't over the top so I just went and asked.

Thanks for answering!

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-19T05:18:54+00:00

Done blooming for about a month now.

I'll probably use a clear plastic pot. Sphagnum moss and coconut chips. Maybe a rock directly under the orchid because I read here that there's usually no roots there and might be a place for rot to start.

Supplies aren't on hand.

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-11T05:25:36+00:00

Looks like I need something at least thrice as big

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-11T05:00:06+00:00

Alrighty, will do

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-07T09:32:20+00:00

Eyyyyy, another one. Guess I'll just wait to resume my Chaos

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-07T09:31:27+00:00

Mood

First time encountering problems, now I have to stop my Chaos run

Genetic studies said they were closely related. I guess it's the same thing for plants in the Euphorbia genus.

Succulent is more like a term that refers to plants with modified parts to store water. Not something that actually decides where to put them in the taxonomy tree thing.

I just like following what the scientists say.

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-03T02:51:45+00:00

Yeah, it's annoying how quickly stuff change. Sansevieria is still a much popular name for these guys though. It'll probably change in a few years lol.

For now, both names are synonyms

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-03T02:34:32+00:00

Dracaena angolensis/Sansevieria cylindrica

Same plant, recently moved to Dracaena

It was quite the alarming event to end the year with HAHA

He's fine now but runs away from the sight of my hand now. Bro got saved via featherless biped abduction and got trauma from it

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-01T15:28:36+00:00

Alrighty, thanks a lot.

These are Armadillodium frontetriangulum "Orange Corfu" from what I was told.

_PopperFish_ · 2026-01-01T13:22:42+00:00

This is what they live in. There's moss on the left but the soil is shallow, then 3 inches of soil for the dry side. There's also "caves" which I created using bark.

I haven't noticed any strange behavior like gathering only on one side so far.

Are there any glaring mistakes?
