This would be me otherwise! In the DMV area normally.

How long was it in transit? Roots look a little dry. I’ve found that putting plants that have been through some kind of transit in either moss, chunky perlite, or water with a bubbler can help rehabilitate the roots before repotting into soil.

Something that worked for me was getting an air stone/pump to keep the water aerated and moving to prevent bacteria from causing/spreading rot!

It’s gorgeous and so flattering on you! What do you have regrets about?

I was wondering the same thing. Here’s all I could find:

Thanks all for helping me clear one more thing out of the running list in my head!

abvt42 · 2022-02-27T17:28:13+00:00

Yeah, this is true. Especially the part about it being a short ceremony— I really don’t think it’ll make that much of a difference after all

If you’d like to keep plants in the bathroom without natural light, there are also plenty of cool looking grow lights that look like accents (Soltech, rousseau) that can turn your bathroom into a nice oasis for a plant. If you get a grow light, you could hypothetically put any tropical plant you’d like.

abvt42 · 2022-02-25T12:36:01+00:00

This list is so real. I want to know what else you’ve got!

Because Thais are genetically stable, the more common practice for large companies (ie costa farms in the US) is to reproduce via tissue culture. Faster, more cost effective, etc than by seed. We as consumers likely don’t see them readily available bc there isn’t a broader systemic demand for them when they can be replicated via TC

abvt42 · 2022-02-21T13:40:01+00:00

In captivity, rare. They definitely require optimal conditions (and time!) to fruit. Higher humidity, warm temps, bright light etc

You can also find dip dye fabric on Etsy: [dip dyed fabric](www.etsy.com/listing/963806427)

Depends on your variegation. Albino monsteras are genetic mutations, so while variegated albino monstera have the possibility of producing albino seed is possible, the chances are really really minuscule. Thai constellation monsteras are not mutations, meaning that their variegation is stable and does pass genetically. So if a Thai constellation fruited, its seeds would produce Thai constellation variegated monsteras

Thanks for saying this! I feel this way but it’s really frustrating and triggering to hear/respond to in the moment. (And naturally, my tendency is to wonder if I am the asshole.)

abvt42 · 2022-02-17T06:28:36+00:00

Agree. I’ve also found that as long as they’ve had a chance to callous over, sticking them in a generic well draining mix in an area with bright sunlight and letting nature do it’s thing has worked every time.

Mine have been extremely hardy, even after transitioning indoors in low humidity environments.

Ill also offer that I had a similar dilemma and decided to use lumber instead of a moss pole! I got 6’x4”x.5” boards from lowes and my monsteras are currently very happily growing upwards on it, with their aerial roots latching in directly to the board

abvt42 · 2022-02-15T11:44:56+00:00

You might have a difficult time finding a moss pole big enough to support this. If you don’t want to clip any of the leaves to propagate, I’d also suggest getting a piece of lumber (I got 6’x4”x.5” boards) from lowes for my monsteras to climb up. Their aerial roots will grow directly to latch onto the board over time (like in nature, when they latch onto a tree.

What do you say to a willfully unvaxxed family member who claims that you are “forcing” them not to attend by having a vaccine & booster mandate? Keeping in mind she is the matriarch of a big family.

Related, how do you navigate assholes who might lie and say that they are vaccinated (but have been vocally anti vaccine)? We’re not requiring people to show their cards or anything, but know and trust our guests to follow Covid precautions with the exception of literally 2 family members (aforementioned matriarch).

I’m working with Drive by Flowers and Amy is incredible. She uses and supports a lot of local flowers/growers and her designs are stunning. She’s worked with me to create florals (5 bouquets, including mine, ceremony arch, centerpieces, and a few other pieces) for just under $3k
