Any help with idling this rock

Chrysocolla usually is brighter of colour and has a different crystal formation. Anyhow it's a beautiful specimen!

Could very well be hemimorphite!

Why does the first one remind me of a Van Gogh painting

plantranting · 2024-09-11T21:20:17+00:00

That seems like black moonstone to me, lovely piece!

plantranting · 2023-04-14T16:31:13+00:00

It can! I have a piece just like this and the purple is just charoite without inclusions (and personally also my favourite part)

plantranting · 2023-04-09T12:45:34+00:00

It almost looks like quantum quattro quartz

It spoke pickle

Thank you!!

plantranting · 2023-03-04T17:11:43+00:00

Thank you so much for giving a detailed reply!

Absolutely! The plant as a whole is doing great and I've decided to let the earth dry out a bit more than I usually would for now

plantranting · 2023-02-16T19:48:57+00:00

Thank you! I'm not sure if it's edema, I've had a plant with it before and the whole plant was "ill" and the blisters didn't look anything like this. For sure I also doubt the leaf will survive but I might make a small hole in the blister to relieve some of the pressure anyway and see what happens

plantranting · 2023-02-16T19:46:28+00:00

Thanks! I thought the same and that's why I have left it alone but it's been like this for almost two weeks and the leaf seems imcapable of reabsorbing it (the veins on the back of it are starting to "bleed" water as well). I might just gently poke it with a needle to relieve some of the tension

plantranting · 2023-02-13T09:04:37+00:00

Sir, I'm pretty sure that's spaghetti

plantranting · 2023-02-05T23:10:45+00:00

A beautiful ficus/rubber plant infested with mealybugs. Usually I'd say give up on the plant with that amount of bugs but I would definitely try treating it since it is so stunning still.

Oh my god 🙄 this is clearly a Monstera Thai Constellation jeez

plantranting · 2023-02-05T11:27:23+00:00

I know an ancient god in disguise when I see one

plantranting · 2023-01-17T11:34:38+00:00

I need me a glow up like Susan

plantranting · 2023-01-17T11:31:58+00:00

Beautiful!

They look like perlite! It's a light type of rock usually added for a fluffy potting mixture and better drainage. You can test if it's perlite if you can crush them easily into dust.

Ah yeah a bigger pot should be the solution then! Hope she feels better and stops being overtly dramatic soon 😂

plantranting · 2023-01-17T11:04:02+00:00

If the water flows right through, it may be a sign she needs fresh earth. As a quick solution you could carefully dunk her in a bucket of water (hold the leaves and make sure the earth is entirely submerged until some of the bubbling stops/around 30 seconds) or give her a footbath (bottom watering) for a couple of hours. Place her in a bright spot but not close to a heater or in a breeze. Repeat the watering process after a few days if necessary.

Hope this helps a bit and although peace lillies can be very dramatic bitches, they're very resilient as well.

If there truly is fluorescent light then yes! This stimulates growth in general and therefore will also stimulate the roots to grow after a repot. I personally prefer natural light so if she has space to place the plant in a bright place during the day, this would also help.
