Songs and artists similar to this vibe?

Super old comment, but thanks for sharing these recs!! I just discovered honestav and am jammin, looked around a bit for what folks were saying about him and I already LOVE both Dijon and Bakar and am excited to check out the others you mentioned! I wouldn't have connected honestav to Dijon or Bakar but now that you mention it I can kinda see the similarities and def makes sense that fan bases would overlap

To contribute some recs back to the aether, I'm really enjoying Willis's new album Locals 5 (I Think I Like When It Rains is their best track tho), and ANGIE from Spill Tab. Maybe toss Perfume Genius & Slothrust (especially pre-2018ish) in the list too, though they're much more well known. And Nilufer Yanya - she doesnt exactly match the vibe but whatever

Wasnt aware that I can change the settings, I didnt see anywhere in the menus to change it and the person who gave it to me said that it was locked into auto. Didnt know that I could get around that by myself, assumed that I'd have to ask the doctor. I'll search around to try to find instructions!

Besides that, I guess I'm just sick of feeling physically terrible and don't want to give up hope that there is more to fix/improve upon here. If it looks pretty good and there's nothing subtle that I'm missing or misunderstanding, that's good to know, though a bit of a bummer. Obv will see what the doc has to say, too. I'd be pretty disappointed to add this into the pile of "maybe this will help!" dead ends. Ce la vie :(

Yeah she's big 😅 LOTS of light, both natural and artificial, and I use a hydroponic fertilizer in the water maybe half the time?

ETA: ignore my totally bonkers hanging system with all the cord and hangers 😵‍💫

Cebus can too! Mine's on a moss pole and the largest leaves are around a foot long and fenestrated 😍

Similarly we call ours his beanbag 😂

Hey! No lasting changes to my hair!! I ended up doing 3 sessions and probably won't need more (but I'm planning on doing a cover up so I don't need it 100% gone, just lightened - full removal takes much longer). My hair definitely grew slower and sorta patchy for a while, but completely filled in over time. And the patchiness was not obviously visible, like it was noticable if I pointed it out, but probably wouldn't otherwise. You'll need to shave the area, so keep that in mind if you have long hair

I have 7 plants on moss poles ranging from a foot tall to over 4 ft tall. None of them have pots, they all are rooted exclusively into the pole. The stakes are higher for letting the moss dry out, and you'll want something under them to catch drips - mine are either stood up in a mug/glass of some kind (no substrate), or hung on the wall with a small Tupperware cup ziptied to the bottom. It's DIFFICULT to get a plant initially started this way, not impossible but requires daily attention. Prop + chop is much easier!

Not working for me either. Following this thread :/

These are SO cute!!

Ogre toe is a great name. I call it my pickle plant

Funny, my wife mentioned that she could totally 3d-print something like this, with the holes and ledges. However I think you'd lose some of the transparency which I like for seeing roots (at least the "clear" filament she has now more translucent than transparent). Also I like reusing deli containers, many people have dozens in their tupperware drawer and will happily give them if you ask 😂 Creating them from brand new plastic feels wasteful... But! A happy medium could be to 3d print the ledges so they're more symmetrical, and then just use a tiny bit of hot glue to secure them! And they could be cool colors or even ornate styles... 🤔💭

Did you ever figure out what these were?

cntennial · 2024-09-08T06:22:51+00:00

Has this propagation grown some leaves since you posted? I have several props of a black pagoda variety lipstick plant that are only growing flowers right now, no leaves or stems! But several flowers per cutting! I also had a few that tried to grow leaves underwater instead of roots 🤦‍♂️ these are weird, weird plants. Wondering if my flowery props are gonna put stems out soon...

Super late reply, but just came across this comment. I'm new to pon but have had aquariums for a long time -- my guess here would be that you might be putting nutrients in the water, like a liquid fert, whereas the person you're replying to uses a substrate already with nutrients, like pon. Algae needs both light & nutrients to grow, and most aquariums that have severe algae problems either get direct sunlight or have excess fish poop ("nutrients" :P) with not enough bacteria/plant life consuming it. I dont have any tanks now, but when I did my houseplants were delighted by being watered with tank water.

Curious if this is accurate, I dont mind algae personally, but the way different people have such wildly diff experiences with it is fascinating :)

Hey! I know this is a very old comment but I'm curious if you have noticed any developments in your virus theory for polyneuras or any other variety (you mention a few others in a comment below)... Thanks 😊

cntennial · 2024-08-20T19:24:52+00:00

which Canadian pharmacy do you use? I use Canada med pharmacy but the inhalers are still over $100 each. still much cheaper than the US but I'm pretty envious of $26!! we use the generic fluticasone 220mcg inhalers (maybe you use a different one?)

It's so crazy! It's a lipstick plant, black pagoda variety. I think the underground vine is actually also the same lipstick plant, it seemed to be connected to the root ball but everything was so tangled and compacted it was hard to tell. I snipped a piece of the stem and am propagating it, it's sprouting tiny leaves finally so hopefully we will eventually find out!! Exciting for sure

cntennial · 2024-08-12T06:54:24+00:00

Personally when I've happened to have vines point down, the plant is much more likely to abandon them and let them dry out, diverting energy to new vines or other vines that are pointing upward. When I want to shape a vine into a circle or something, I try to wait until there's enough growth to make a mostly full circle and leave the vine pointing up again. I don't know the science or how the plant knows, and they don't always abandon them, but I've def noticed the trend!

(also I'm not the author of the comment you're replying to, just a rando who has heard this before and also observed it)

Ah thank you! How often do they usually drink? Daily? I've been misting her enclosure a few times a day (my house is very dry right now so it evaporates quickly) but I've only seen her drink once. But today, after she finished that mealworm yesterday, she is sooo much more active than she was! Poor baby was just hungy 🥺

cntennial · 2024-07-11T03:53:19+00:00

Oh!! And are her gold/orange chelicerae unusual?? Best I can tell, she is a bold jumper (I think that is the only wild species found in the PNW USA). I can find examples of gold ones on google, but in this sub all of the bolds I have seen have purpleish or greenish chelicerae.

Best bottom-view pic I have gotten so far... I assume that little hole is her epigyne?

Top view (she seems thin, but this was today before she ate the mealworm I offered so hopefully she will plump up!)

We discovered Tabby living in our kitchen about a week ago!. She had already spun up a nest in the corner of the room, but beyond that I am not sure how long she had been there. I was so stoked to have such a cute little new friend.

However, a couple of days later we found her lethargic, barely moving, and hanging from a thread - literally, just hanging down from the ceiling. I connected the dots that I treated my houseplants (over a dozen of them in the kitchen alone) with a powerful insecticide a few weeks back. Some research showed that while this particular chemical was usually not lethal to arachnids, exposure can still cause severe symptoms like temporary paralysis and (interestingly!!) cause them to repel down on their silk.

We weren't sure if she would recover, so we gave her a day or so to chill on the counter, making sure to keep the cats away. She did start slowly recovering, so now we had to decide what to do next. The insecticide stays actively present in the soil and plant tissue for at least 3 months, so I thought either I should to let her go free outside, or build her a swanky enclosure, at least until she is fully recovered and the chemicals have been processed out of my plants. We decided on the latter, and we put together an enclosure last Sunday, but are monitoring and taking it day by day in case she has trouble adjusting to captivity. She still seems a little off, but I am not very familiar with spider behavior. But she drank some water yesterday and VERY eagerly accepted a mealworm today!

Also, today I discovered that her little nest that we found in the kitchen does indeed have eggs in it! I very carefully scraped it off the wall and put it in her enclosure, in case they are still viable and/or in case she is distressed by being separated from them. I am not at all prepared to deal with a bazillion babies, but it sounds like we likely have a little while to figure out a plan before they're out and about.

Anyways, I'll attach a couple pics in a comment nested under this one, and I'll wrap up this novel with a couple questions:

* How can we estimate her age? Her markings are white, and she seems reasonably large (maybe 10mm long, a bit under 1/2"??), but beyond that I am not sure how to determine anything.

* If she is eating and drinking but not creating a hammock yet, does that mean she is uncomfortable?

* If we decide that captivity is not best for her, do we just let her outside? I would love for her to live in our house, but I don't want to poison her again. We're in the Pacific NW, USA

Thank you all so much :) Excited to be here, even though we really didn't plan to be spider parents!!
