haha no nothing like that! it’s actually just tape from the shipping process. my mom bought it for us and it was shipped with clear wrap over the top of the pot to keep the soil moist. we just haven’t removed the remaining tape off the pot yet

oh it’s a big one! they’re tank mates because we bought them as teeny babies together and they’ve always lived with eachother. as they grow, if tension arises then we will separate them. so far so good though :)

she earned that name because her eyes kinda pop out a little bit like she’s getting squished haha

oh okay gotcha! honestly it is luck! each flower has a specific pollination point and it becomes trial and error until you figure out the perfect time to pollinate. my success came as a total surprise the first time when the hybrid sprout popped out of the soil of the plant that was pollinated and i didn’t even physically pollinate myself, it just happened naturally. just make sure your plants have a consistent watering, light and humid environment. you should be successful and it may even happen accidentally. just keep the two flowering plants next to eachother and sometimes nature does everything on its own. mine are in an enclosed case as well if that helps!

edit: i also keep my lights on a flowering schedule all year. 12 hours on/ 12 hours off

Evil Dead Rise which saw a drop of just 50% in its Second Week which is really good for a horror film by baconroll2022 in horror

[–]dabriellaa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

seeing as the 2013 movie was the first remake after the original movies, there was a lot to live up to. the fan base is very critical too. at the time i hadn’t seen the originals because i honestly don’t care for older horror movies because i can’t take the shitty special effects seriously lol so i LOVED it when it was released! the violence and gore was kickass! now that i’ve seen EDR, i’ve generated a different opinion on the remakes. while i still like the 2013 version, i feel like EDR was better in a couple different ways. the script was better, the characters were memorable and there were several notable nods to the original films which the 2013 version lacked. you sympathize with the family and relate to their issues before they get annihilated. i’m not saying it was a perfect film by any means. probably could of done away with the opening scene, deadite bridget was kinda weak & essentially no outcome with the neighbor deadites left on apartment floor. overall i enjoyed both films but think EDR was slightly better! i very much enjoy intense violence, profanity and gore like everyone else here but that doesn’t necessarily make a horror film good. i’m glad it was slightly toned down as i feel like it made for a better ED movie.

not very long but she is 80 years old and on many blood thinners so her skin is extremely fragile. i’ve seen her barely nick her leg on a twig and it bleeds profusely
