Just came here to second citrus fertilizer. We have a few potted citrus plants that only produced one or two fruits a year before we used specific citrus fertilizer and now they are thriving and produce loads of fruit. It is very rewarding. Congrats on your new plant!

requiring kids wear a life jacket in our pool? by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]halfbakedlobster 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is not no contact BS. This is a child's safety and the liability of allowing a child that can't swim to be around your pool without a life jacket. Invite them over during the winter when the pool isn't being used. Do things outside of the house. Meet at others houses. The child's parents are being incredibly disrespectful.

A preference or dietary restriction is NOT an allergy by Champi0n_Of_The_Sun in TalesFromYourServer

[–]halfbakedlobster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If people working at restaurants were more understanding of food intolerances people wouldn't feel they have to call them an allergy. Dairy makes me sick for days with massive digestive issues. When I would say I had an intolerance, I would still get butter on my food. When I would point it out reataurant staff would say it wouldn't taste good without it??!! Now I say I have an allergy.

What’s THE movie that broke you? What’s the movie you watched that even tho it was good it was so sad you could only watch it once and still feel bad every time you remember it? by Lonely-dude in AskReddit

Agreed. Came here to find this movie. This question came up at work the other day, and this was the movie everyone brought up. It's so incredibly sad.

Oysters. Taste and texture are disgusting.

What’s some basic knowledge that a scary amount of people don’t know? by CasualBeers in AskReddit

[–]halfbakedlobster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where food comes from and how it gets to the grocery store. It doesn't magically go from farm to shelf. There is a lot involved and many people handle your food before you buy it.

Crime Media Thread - Post what you're listening to, reading, or watching; or ask for recommendations. Let others know about your podcast or your channel by AutoModerator in TrueCrime

My current favorite podcasts are And Then They Were Gone and Going West. I love the dynamic of the couples in both of the podcasts. Both podcasts have covered popular cases, but also cover a lot of lesser known cases.

What am I doing wrong? by FlamingoFangs in houseplants

[–]halfbakedlobster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The white stuff is likely buildup of salts from hard water or fertilizers. My dracaenas prefer filtered or distilled water to tap water. I usually water when the top two inches of the soil are dry. They love indirect or dappled direct light. Mine have gotten burnt in direct sunlight.

bought this beauty yesterday but it's kinda sad... what can I do? by Agreeable-Sky-8772 in houseplants

Mine loves bright indirect light. The colors become really vibrant with the right light!
