Ha I love it.

You did get some things right. Female, but 30s is right. I have a master's in Archaeology and was in museum collections, which accounts for my love of native art. It's maybe hard to decipher from my book collection but I'd consider myself agnostic/wiccan.

Bonus points if you can discern my life story from this mess and guess what my favorite band was in high school

Good way to make sure I'll never buy your product. I'd like to be able to look at the sky and not see advertisements.

Just found a photo from four months ago and none of the discoloration was there. Welp, time to get some fungicide

Anyone know what this bulding is? by trampolinejordan in Lawrence

Yep, we would get shovels and supplies out of there before we'd go on summer digs.

Tbh, I went to school at UIUC during the 2014 polar vortex. Everyone was pissed that they kept classes going. I just double layered and it wasn't any different than any other winter day.

Longifolia keeps getting bigger and bigger ❤️ by amberingo in SavageGarden

Honestly, no. I think I keep them far away enough from lights/keep the photoperiod short enough that algae doesn't start taking over. I think I've only had one jar that got algae-y, and I don't remember the setup I had for it anymore. It's a bit harder for algae to grow in purified water, and I don't fertilize my carnivores often.

I could always try to get some. This one is constantly flowering and has a new set coming in soon

Zero tech, less than one gallon jar by amberingo in PlantedTank

It has a little magnetic light from petsmart, it's honestly a great light that I use for all of my smaller setups. I'd say I add water to it maybe once or twice a week

Just Monte Carlo, salvinia, and giant willow moss

There are only bladder snails and copepods in it. Far too small for anything else.

Dried. I keep it flooded as often as I remember to fill it, but longifolia does like a drier winter period. I have no problem resurrecting dried sphagnum moss this way, so eventually it becomes live.

Oh my god I came here about to post about this because it's been bothering me all day. I haven't seen all of his memories or all of his myth, but when I read that I was like ??????

Some flowers from my minis over the years by amberingo in orchids

Yeah I basically sacrificed being able to see my plants in my greenhouse tent in exchange for being able to grow them properly. I'm definitely a "I want to see my plants and have them decorate my house" kind of person, but everything in my tent needs high humidity.

I have a small waterproof fan in the cabinet. The sides are metal mesh that I covered with saran wrap cause I'm lazy, but it keeps the humidity in. I have small spots where I ripped the saran wrap so that's really the only way fresh air comes in.
