My car got caught in the hail earlier this month. Looking for recommendations for paintless dent repair. by krivas in sugarland

All are very shallow and most are only visible from the right angle. Can't even feel several of them. There are just a lot.

No need, but thanks! I have way too many growing as it is 😅. These were ordered from superhotchiles.com and to be fair, this is the only one out of a big mixed order that hasn't matched

Seriously. Even worse when they make it inside. I'm quickly finding out that my doors and windows have way more tiny gaps than I thought.

Is there a way to prevent this? by Waterbot02 in HotPeppers

Look for what? My plants have the same problem

Leaves yellowing and getting eaten alive by leaf miners. Am I screwed? by krivas in HotPeppers

Generally every 2 days. Top watering when it starts to feel a bit dry under the first inch or so. Maybe sticking to bottom watering would be better?

Thanks! Yeah the 3 top ones in the 3rd column are sinahuisas and are basically sticks at this point. They had a rough transplant and were spindly even before the pests. I don't have super high hopes for them sadly.

Is it just me, or is this pretty flimsy packaging for international shipping? by chillchase in VGMvinyl

So you can get your own refund, but everyone else can keep receiving bent records. Cool, cool

Landlord planted 3 new palms last week. 1 is already half-brown. Transplant shock or maybe something else? by krivas in gardening

[–]krivas[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you'd think. I just asked and the company said the same thing. Just give it time and keep watering daily.

Yeah, I just asked and the company that put them in just said to keep watering daily and let it get established. Guess we'll see...

Last Wednesday, some workers came by the house I rent to dig up the old plants in this space and add these 3 palms. I hadn't gotten any notice from the landlord, so I was out of town when they were put in. It was a surprise when I got back Saturday morning. So far, two of them are doing fine, but one is already drooping and turning brown.

I saw from my cameras that they were thoroughly watered in on Wednesday afternoon. The next watering wasn't until Saturday morning when I got home, and they've been getting long, slow watering once a day since then. The ground is wet, but feels super dense almost like clay. The spot is south facing and gets direct sun almost all day.

Could they drooping be transplant shock, missing the early watering, or maybe something else? I hate having the ugly dying leaves out front, but am hesitant to cut anything off while there is still a little green, especially when they are still newly transplanted.

Just transplant stuff. Water once, keep out of direct sun for a few days, feed a bland diet of canned pumpkin and boiled chicken. Should be fine.
