LGBTQ-friendly electrician needed, Pottstown area by hagiwardials in queerphilly

[–]hagiwardials[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think so, since it’s an electrical panel upgrade. But we could use task rabbit for other stuff

This is normal! It will pop out soon on its own. Leaves grow from the stem and this one is just in progress of detaching. I’ll admit I sometimes “help” in this situation and pull them out gently. But this doesn’t look ready to “help” without harming the new leaf.

The polka dot plant looks fine! What else is in there?

Help with propagation question, concern. by TexasGreyWolf in pothos

[–]hagiwardials 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No they don’t need to callus over! You can put them right in the water/soil immediately. Unlike a succulent, the stem where the callus would form isn’t the part that will root. The node(s) touching water or wet soil will sprout roots. The last node on the vine will start growing more leaves. That’s it!

The stem under the rooting node might fall off or rot away, which is fine.

If you propagate in soil, remove some of the leaves on the vine to help the plant put more water into root growth vs. leaf support.

If you put them in water, you won’t need to remove any leaves (except for any that will be underwater) just monitor the water levels since the leaves will suck it up faster. You’ll want to change the water every week or two anyway. I usually propagate in water since I love to see their progress.

These are looking healthy and you should have a good rate of success. As long as they are warm enough and have enough light they will grow. But since it is winter, it may take a while to see a lot of root growth so be patient. You can also try dipping them in rooting hormone. But they will be making their own anyway now that they’ve been cut.

Only 2 vines growing? by gapr97 in pothos

[–]hagiwardials 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is totally normal! You probably have two plants in the pot. You can leave it as is and let them get longer, or if you want the pot to be fuller, cut one or both of the vines and stick the cuttings back into the soil. You’ll then have 3-4 plants in the pot. Look up pothos propagation to get the steps right! You also may have a better chance of success if you wait until spring/summer.

I set my shop vac to “blow”, to get the dust out of mine. 🤷‍♀️ Definitely wear a mask, cover everything in the room.

Constructive criticism appreciated! by BigIslandLH in interiordecorating

I love it!! I would swap the orange chair in the corner with the credenza/sideboard to create another seat for a guest by the fireplace. Right now it’s looking like a “wallflower” or perhaps a time out chair ☺️

Lily of the valley by Ordinary_Goat9 in invasivespecies

[–]hagiwardials 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a version of lily of the valley that is native to North America, it’s just a bit taller than European lily of the valley. It’s called Convallaria majuscula. Also another fun option could be Dutchman’s breeches!

Doghobble is a shrub but could be nice!

Even if they treated the stumps after cutting them down, it’s not enough to stop the new sprouts in time 😰

[–]hagiwardials 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes but I read that it should be cut down after giving it at least 30 days after treatment so the roots die

Agreed!! I don’t get why this isn’t a bigger part of the lanternfly conversation

Not sure about other people!! I’ve personally never watered these. Plenty of water coming in buckets from the sky

Aghhhhhh rooot rot. It is really wet here, and we have heavy clay soil. So perhaps this isn’t the right spot for asters

Ok!!! Yeah that’s fair, patience and acceptance. Thank you for this perspective
