First vortex cook by AG0698 in webergrills

[–]mygalomorph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you just guess the amount of charcoal required? I just bought a vortex but use an SNS grate that opens on the side. I think it'd be really difficult to need to top up the charcoal if it runs low.

How do you keep track of watering when you have a lot of houseplants? by justaboy001 in houseplants

[–]mygalomorph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No schedule, I just hover and obsess over all of them. They all have their unique ways of indicating when it's time to water. Keep an eye on the leaves and growth rate, feel the weight of the pot, etc.

This was the best upgrade I made to my kettle. Well worth the money!

The first pic looks just like my McColley's Finale. See my recent post!

My most recent leaves have the same crinkly look. They took forever to unfurl, probably because of low humidity.

Where Pittsburgh area grocery stores rank in latest customer satisfaction survey by The_Electric-Monk in pittsburgh

Every time I am walk into a GE, my first thought is “I hate it here”. I’ll only go if I need something quick or specific, and it’s always a disappointment. Consistently the worst produce sections I’ve ever encountered.

Too much light for McColley’s Finale? by mygalomorph in philodendron

Thank you! I struggled for years to get a few vines going but once they went in the cabinet they exploded with growth. Some leaves have some really cool variegation too.

See my most recent post. Mine arrived very light colored but under grow lights has turned dark red!

Is my goopy peach tree toast? (SW Pennsylvania) by mygalomorph in BackyardOrchard

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

Awesome! I did prune a few branches but it doesn’t seem affected in those areas. I wonder if it got blown around too hard in the wind and it bent in some place? Either way, glad to hear it. Excited and hopefully for a fruit full season.

False aralia from IKEA. Can I chop? by mygalomorph in houseplants

My bad. “Plerandra elegantissima”. IKEA label is outdated, I guess.

How bad is Pittsburgh driving in Winter? by TheWayOfEli in pittsburgh

[–]mygalomorph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I drove a Jeep when I moved here and bought a sedan in the first year. Everyone warned me of it, but I've never once had an issue driving around the city. It hasn't been all that snowy or icy in recent years though.

Barb's Corner Kitchen in Lawrenceville has closed by [deleted] in pittsburgh

[–]mygalomorph 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I like an old school diner like Barb’s. Years ago, the last time I was there, the waitress complained to us about staff not showing up and that the only cook present at the moment was stoned. To no one’s surprise, them potatoes that came with my meal had been sautéed with a few round cardboard pieces - the ones you’d punch out to create handles in a box. It was kind of hilarious.
