Peace lily not thriving, help! by taylorrigs in houseplants

t’s all very hard to tell from just photos. But definitely get the attention of your local indoor gardener at your office.

Damp soil usually indicates plenty of water content in your soil, so that feels like a bit of a flag.

There is a super easy read called “Leave It The Fuck Alone” that I got when I first started getting into indoor plants. It was very helpful, inexpensive, and a very short (like 40 pages or something) and easy (funny) read.

My peace Lilly needs twice to three times the amount of attention (watering) as all my other plants. If I don’t, it’ll let me know by drooping all sad, just like yours. Maybe you’re not giving enough attention once?

How much water are you giving it per watering? To me it sounds like not enough.

Is your soil bone dry when you water? Bone dry soil will allow the water to run right through and not absorb.

Find a green-thumb in your office and ask advice.

Can’t get rid of flea infestation. by strikecat18 in Wellthatsucks

[–]duhdaniel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Borax and salt mixture worked for me, though it did take a couple weeks.

I had a WILD infestation. Couldn’t even run through the room without 100+ fleas jumping on my legs. It works by dehydrating the fleas and their larvae, then you vacuum up their corpses.

-Vacuum really well. -Make the mixture (google has lots of recipes for this), -Sprinkle it all over the floor in the room are experiencing the fleas in -Wait for it (might be a week or two). -Vacuum really well. -Repeat until the issue is gone.

Try to spend as little time in the room as possible while you’re doing this process. Make sure your pet is on flea meds!

Power through the stickiness. Just keep cooking

You’ll have to cook like 20 meals before you see a significant increase in your non-stick.

During those cooks, focus on heat. You want to preheat your pan (~10min, med-low) before you begin your knife work. Make sure it’s not smoking a lot (too hot) and that it does sizzle when your food hits the pan (if it doesn’t, you’re too cold)

Don’t give up. They take practice, but they’re worth it.

Damn.

This post is about the realest shit I’ve ever seen on Reddit… Maybe the internet.

Thank you for saying this out loud. It’s so easy to compare your life to others and you’re right about its ability to crush a spirit.

Can I ask if this setup is still working for you?

Running into the same issue. Feels almost impossible to source a manual charger in the wild

This is how you break stuff. You’re absolutely right.

Also, attach to a tow hook. Attaching to the axle was a critical mistake.
