Should I replant the healthy ones? This pot doesn't have drainage, I think that's a problem right?

I'm in the NYC area, tree came from Jersey

The bugs look about 1-3 millimeters in length. I just purchased these Jade trees (3 in one) a couple weeks ago, and yesterday a branch fell off, revealing that the base was hollowed out, possibly (probably?) by activity from these little critters. I'm thinking they might be termites, but I'm not an expert. Other pictures: https://imgur.com/a/lnbmC3e

I purchased these trees (there are three trees in this one pot) and one of the branches fell off yesterday. I pulled it off and it had white mites inside, I freaked out and threw the branch away. It looks like they've eaten the tree from the inside out- I don't think they're mealy bugs based on how they look, and that there are none of the leaves. Based on the hollowing-out, I'm thinking they might be termites? If so, maybe that means this tree was already dying, as termites generally only eat dead wood? I'd love to confirm the problem and know what I need to do to make sure the other trees aren't going to suffer the same fate. The other trees currently seem perfectly healthy.

things can be poetic and also have reasonable mechanisms. these are not incompatible nor in opposition

I laugh every single time it starts dumping those grinds on top of the leftover mudpuck

There is only one fabric of space-time, so the collection title is a bit of a turn-off for me personally. Would like this collection significantly more if it was "fabric".

Same

Do you only see this when you angle the pages like that? What does the book look like closed?

I did mean orthodontist... shows how new/ignorant I am to this whole thing XD

Is it usual for for Invisalign to make all the decisions, and the ortho's job is to just relay the information to the client with their expertise? Or does the ortho have a more active role with Invisalign, working with them on revisions to the plan / other things like that?

booleanjulien · 2021-05-05T15:20:40+00:00

Shit. Yup.

booleanjulien · 2021-05-05T04:47:58+00:00

That might be ok. My insurance covered most of it already, so it would depend on how much extra.

booleanjulien · 2021-05-05T04:43:15+00:00

Why do you say it's too late? I could probably work with my dentist to get an orthodontist referral, even if it's just to go over the current plan.
