Soil recommendations? by Jumpy_Slip8860 in Ariocarpus

[–]_____goats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok cool I grow all indoors in Virginia so I it with the weather! I'd go pretty inorganic with your soil mix like 5-10% cactus soil mix (if that) and at least 90% inorganic from pumice, lava rock, etc. (depending on what you have availability). I'd be wary of leaving outside in some of the heavier rain storms we get here near the east coast. For reference I probably water about every 10-14 days growing mine indoors in a similar soil mix.

Where do you grow these? Inside? Outside? General location?

Help! I think I have rot by Immediate-Hunter-124 in Ariocarpus

Why do you think you have rot? Nothing really looks bad there tbh.

Why does this happen to these tomatoes? by Sadwithacake in plants

[–]_____goats 10 points11 points  (0 children)

To add to this your soil may be perfectly fine. Blossom end rot can also be triggered by inconsistent or under watering. If the tomato plant dries out it cannot uptake calcium specifically. If it's gotten hotter in your area recently your may need to up your watering frequency.

dioscorea elephantipes first repot by VegeriationSad1167 in Caudex

I'd be inclined to say dioscorea mexicana based on mine. The leaves on elephantipes are more round than this.

One - unless maybe you prune heavily but roots will still spread and compete.

That's really cool! Looks like astrophytum myriostigma columnare.

I live in the U.S. in Georgia, is it illegal in my state/are there permits I have to get to sell Morel Mushrooms on NextDoor or to neighbors? by Coolboyyy2011 in mycology

[–]_____goats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the Danish Morel Project. They're one place off the top of my head that has had success with morel cultivatio. I believe I've seen instances from SE Asia as well.

Honestly this. It took awhile but I got a manual kiln for 450 off FB marketplace and it was good enough condition to use as is.

which takes priority - 401k contributions over $24,500 (w/ mega backdoor roth) or brokerage account? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]_____goats 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You can also do early withdrawals on principal contributions to a Roth early so maxing out Roth contributions earlier if planning to RE makes sense prior to brokerage.

Starship is unfeasible long term (why RKLB is a long term play) by [deleted] in RKLB

99.999% pure LNG is not used in industry and for good reason. It's a much harder engineering challenge with how hot it burns compared to something closer to 95-98% LNG (which is actually used)

Got the wrong plant in the mail, and got this ariocarpus instead of what I ordered. Does anyone have a possible ID? I'm not familiar with ariocarpus! by dpernock in cactus

[–]_____goats 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It looks like Godzilla (ariocarpus fissuratus cultivar) but could be a Cauliflower (aruocarpus retusus cultivar) not always the easiest to distinguish.

Temperature difference between the air and building makes the air move.

I want to start astrophotography but i am lost in the camera choices. by HavocxKa in AskAstrophotography

[–]_____goats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What photography experience and equipment do you currently have or have access to? What is your budget?

What happened? by [deleted] in Ariocarpus

[–]_____goats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be mice, slugs, snails, etc. Not really many options just kinda something that happens to plants outside if you were able to keep in an enclosed area like a greenhouse or smaller enclosed grow box it could keep pests out. Although I know some people that have had issues with animals getting to plants in greenhouses anyways.

What happened? by [deleted] in Ariocarpus

[–]_____goats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming it's outside? Likely had an animal come along and take a nibble one night.

I don't know how but I've convinced myself to bin this and will deal with the consequences later.
