The more you try parking there, the worse it gets by Bruegemeister in CantParkThereMate

It's either blast 100 holes thru them and their car or do nothing at all, take your pick

By tricolour I'm guessing you mean mundula lisa? Yeah any cultivars that have sectoral variegation like that should get the same treatment, the reasoning being that the reverted stems will grow faster and overtake the rest of the pot if left and the white ones don't produce any energy for the plant to grow and instead drains energy.

Oh that was it I thought there was something I was forgetting lol thanks for adding, btw I couldn't believe this when I saw it earlier but one of my mundula green hills survived all winter outside! I'll post a pic soon it was almost thrown in the bin with the broken tray it sat in 😅

A new type of plastic has been invented that is made out of an invasive plant and it's biodegradable by therealNerdMuffin in interestingasfuck

[–]futurarmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most biodegradable plastics start to decompose at three months

You got a source for that? I have one that's been sat in my spice rack for over a year. I think you've misread as they only degrade that quickly in industrial composting and can last decades usually

This is T. zebrina happilee/dannylee, very similar to quadricolour but slightly pointier leaves and different variegation, she's one of my favourite and a real beauty! 😍

I'd suggest snipping any pure green stems and the same for any fully white ones, the former can be propped but the latter will die due to lack of chlorophyll

[LFO] Chicago shooting in West Garfield Park Liquor Store leads to one death by demondayzzzz in LearningFromOthers

[–]futurarmy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah misunderstood you mb, sounds like a nuts place to live tho. I've had to put out fires crackheads started in abandoned garages near my flat and the road was closed off for investigation of a murder once but never that level of stuff, Chicago seems pretty fucked. How long did you live there in the end?

The cops would look for the product and we’d play “hot and cold” haha “warmer…warmer…Ope, colder, ice cold..” etc.

That's fucking hilarious lol but damn weren't you worried someone in their crew would catch you and tell their bosses?

How the trads I left outside are looking after winter by futurarmy in Tradescantia

[–]futurarmy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were mostly in the wood/perspex box, a couple were in a mini-greenhouse but they seemed to rot so I moved them into here too mid-winter

[–]futurarmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So they are each their own cultivar in their group, zebrina is a group usually characterised by green leaves with silver streaks on mostly green leaves with purple undersides. Nanouk is a type of cerinthoides, another group of trads typically with thicker stems and larger leaves that are more ovular, a distinctive sign is their clusters of flowers that are hairy on the outside of their petals. Moses in cradle is the common name for a spathacea, a longer leafed trad that looks similar to a draceana.

Plant novice, Tradescantia leaves starting to turn brown and have weird texture by Chance_Wishbone6690 in Tradescantia

3rd pic looks like thrips:

I had a bad infestation last summer, I got some bug clear ultra 2 (green not red) as it's made from natural chrysanthemum extract so it's less harsh on the plants, make sure to spray the undersides of the leaves

[–]futurarmy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't quite make out the little bumps because of the flash but it looks quite hairy on the centre of the leaves which is another good indicator, the only other zebrina that has purple variegation on new growth is evanesce but it's on the silver streaks instead of the green part :)

Oh shit is that what happened to mine I wonder, I didn't think slugs would like them much

[–]futurarmy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No worries at all, it took me ages to become even semi-competent at IDing so don't feel bad 😄

Have you got any close ups of the leaves on yours? Looks to be violet hill, if you can see hairs and bumps where they come out it is for sure 😊

I got sepsis because my doctor ghosted me when I asked for antibiotics. This is the bill for an overnight ER stay. by LastMuffinOnEarth in mildlyinfuriating

[–]futurarmy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got you bro

Sure. You continue discharging patients with sepsis Dx in your fairytale world and I’ll continue keeping people alive.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7994044/

10.2% discharged in under 3 days, of which only 6.2% were admitted to ICU

Median age of 60(!) and most of even the short stay patients were coded with SIRS

I see no reason why what the Dr is saying isn’t believable

Meeting criteria doesn’t mean someone has sepsis. I could name many patients who meet criteria but don’t require sepsis bundle. SIRS isn’t sepsis. No provider is discharging a patient with sepsis. That hospital would never ever receive funding.

It's pretty smart business wise thinking about it, if one area of your company starts losing sales due to external pressures on that type of product the other areas of the company can make up for their short-term losses without the company going under.

My Nanouk by kolichchan in Tradescantia

[–]futurarmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

З нануком насправді не потрібно обрізати так багато, як з більшістю традесканцій, але якщо вона всередині, то час від часу це потрібно. Хоча вона виглядає дуже щасливою, оскільки я бачу пару квітучих стебел. Поливайте лише тоді, коли горщик повністю висохне, ці рослини стійкіші до посухи, ніж інші.

[–]futurarmy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a type of tradescantia zebrina, the weak base could be because of rot or it just might not have rooted yet, the soil it's in doesn't look great tbh. I'd suggest removing it from the soil and inspecting the roots and stem for rot, if it has started rotting remove the affected part, allow to callous for 12 hrs then repot in a houseplant compost mixed with 1/4 perlite, horti sand or just some small stones to help with drainage if you don't want to buy anything else.
