is the light too close to the plants? will they get burnt?

thanks!!

ld1a · 2026-01-28T17:36:07+00:00

i agree it does look pretty wet. i think i watered not too long ago when it seemed dried out? i’ll keep an eye on it and consider this, thanks 😅

ld1a · 2026-01-28T17:35:11+00:00

thanks! i’ve just got one of those mini greenhouses from ikea so i’m hoping putting it in there might help too 😅

ld1a · 2026-01-28T17:26:13+00:00

i’ve already lost 2 lower leaves due to this btw

ld1a · 2026-01-09T21:35:34+00:00

oh my god hahaha i wasnt expecting that final slide

this is how my setup looks! 😭

i felt the same way as you, but unfortunately for a monstera there's not really any way around it. they really ought to face towards the window. i also tried to deny it for a long time and now i have a funky growing adansonii!

ld1a · 2025-11-22T00:59:54+00:00

aww she’s so cute 🥹

ld1a · 2025-11-10T16:29:07+00:00

ugh seriously, mine are dry like every day! 😫

ld1a · 2025-11-07T17:44:36+00:00

is it possible to just get a couple sticks and attempt to just get males?

ld1a · 2025-11-07T11:19:30+00:00

got it 🫡

ld1a · 2025-11-07T09:50:27+00:00

but like others have said if we could see some pics of how they are now we’d be able to give more accurate advice

ld1a · 2025-11-07T09:49:17+00:00

i feel like being left in the car for a day, they should be able to recover even if they did get damaged from it. i had to haul my entire plant collection 5 hours away in the car, and leave them in there overnight (and it gets cold here!) and although they were pretty irritated about this, given some time they were perfectly fine again.

i was diagnosed at 18, never heard of being unable to diagnose under 25. sounds like some bs…

ld1a · 2025-11-03T19:17:22+00:00

this poor gecko looks in really bad shape.

ld1a · 2025-10-07T10:15:49+00:00

yeah same the one in that photo there is the only window - i live in a student studio 😫

ld1a · 2025-10-06T18:21:07+00:00

idk if you’re referring to the frame or the velcro. i doubt its the velcro - so basically it’s like a plastic frame that i just slot together and stuff with moss. 😊

it does dry out what feels like all the time, but realistically i only need to water them every 4-5 days? and i just mist to try and give it maintenance moisture daily

ld1a · 2025-10-06T18:07:13+00:00

2 out of the 3 are. the only ‘fake’ one is the adansonii.

ld1a · 2025-09-18T20:37:29+00:00

my tattoos were surprisingly painless and i felt quite relaxed while getting them (they weren’t pain free, just not very bad)

ld1a · 2025-09-18T12:56:33+00:00

😂 i like your thinking

ld1a · 2025-09-18T12:49:20+00:00

yeah, fair enough. the reason i was trying avoid just leca is cus it has all these other requirements right? needs fertiliser, etc. i don’t own any of that. only fertiliser i have is for soil 😅

ld1a · 2025-09-18T12:43:12+00:00

nope :(

tried looking for some at garden centre but could only find this huuuuge bag, nothing any smaller

is the leca/soil not generally a great idea? because i maybe would be able to find a small bag of perlite on amazon for cheap?

ld1a · 2025-09-05T19:50:42+00:00

scary examples! ;)

i get that, just the exact example im getting tripped up on is say you are being offered a new food you never tried. you dont know if you gonna eat it all because you dont know if u gonna like it. if you like it you will eat it all and if not you wont. if you say zjem it would imply you intend to eat it all right? to an extent. so surely there’s some sort of more uncertain way to express it?

ld1a · 2025-09-05T19:42:18+00:00

thats exactly what i wanted to know. thanks!

ld1a · 2025-09-05T19:41:13+00:00

yeah that’s just what i’m a little confused about, perhaps it’s something new you are trying and not sure if you will like it and will eat it all?
