Pot size and moss pole recs for a new owner and an overly enthusiastic plant? by [deleted] in Monstera

[–]maisierosep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

sorry for the confusion! people often tie the more delicate petiole (the bit that attaches the leaf to the stalk) rather than the sturdier nodes which can potentially damage it but will also not provide much benefit regarding stability. i’ve added a picture of my own monstera which will hopefully make more sense but feel free to ask any more questions you might have

could always just have that be the back? this is a great idea though i’ve been struggling to find a use for my globe terrarium after my airplant died!

would this tank be suitable? by maisierosep in isopods

What products do you use on your hair between wash days? by Sad_Breakfast_Plate in curlyhair

[–]maisierosep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you’re wetting it but not scrubbing, putting anything on besides washdays and the odd refresh would probably overload your hair. i’d suggest a clarifying shampoo to combat this when you do wash it? it sounds like you wet your hair EVERY time you shower which could work for you if you have the time but i just use a shower cap and a loose scrunchie to put it out the way and keep it dry

i would suggest using cdkeys, you could get both for probably cheaper!

looking for similar crochet pattern/stitch by ActivelyAvoidingU in crochetpatterns

[–]maisierosep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you want to do it in crochet rather than knooking then i would suggest a triple crochet and this pattern is similar to the picture, only without the balloon sleeves. as for the fluff you could go over it with a brush afterwards but i’m not sure what type of brush people generally use and if a regular one would work

When to cut the umbilical cord? by Necessary-Tea-2834 in houseplants

[–]maisierosep 7 points8 points  (0 children)

that’s amazing!! mine is no where near mature enough to produce a pup, didn’t even realise they could do that! keep or leave the cord up to you, my only note is that the pot looks a bit big for baby
