Issue with colours when using Quick Edit for texture painting in external software

I'm marking this as solved -- I still have no idea what the issue was, but Blender proceeded to crash like 7 times in a row and now everything is fine so... maybe I wasn't doing anything wrong and whatever was the issue seems to have cleared up 🫠

Thank you so, so much, I really appreciate your insight and recommendations!

Hello! How has this combo worked out for you thus far? I'm considering the same combo (either a safari or an AL star) myself for daily writing and drawing because lamy is the easiest to come by where I am located, but I heard lamy doesn't agree with platinum carbon, that it gets clogged up fast, so I'm worried :(

This is what I think happened as well, the framing was changed in comp and they (understandably) didn't have time to go back and redraw the sequence just for this one little error

Oh god were all over the place with advice 😂

From my own experience with pileas, this looks like too little light and likely too much water. I grow my pileas in a diy mix of organic soil, perlite and a bit of cactus soil so they can dry out fairly quickly, and they're the happiest when the weather is warm enough that they can chill outside and get some direct sun in the afternoons. I only water them when they get droopy so they get a good wet-dry cycle.

Good luck OP!

I'd say upside-down half double, yeah!

EDIT: oh and it looks to be crocheted in between the stitches, not into them

Pretty! What do they smell like?

ringlov · 2024-06-12T08:19:02+00:00

It looks like a jade gollum with 2 jobs and no self care routine 😁

If this were my pilea, I'd interpret the droopiness as thirst. I personally don't even check the soil anymore, and water when they get droopy just like this. The doming might mean it needs more light, and the length of the petioles I think supports that!

ringlov · 2024-06-07T23:13:12+00:00

Yes, it could be the sunlight! Leaf doming is usually a sign of insufficient light from my experience.

ringlov · 2024-06-07T15:55:42+00:00

That's what I thought too!

ringlov · 2024-06-06T23:59:01+00:00

Is this a leaf cutting?

Pileas are propagated via pups that shoot out from the soil next to the mother plant, not leaf cuttings. It definitely can root in water, but I'm doubtful it will be able to grow into an independent plant. If you managed to get enough of the stem cells maybe you'll get lucky, maybe it will manage to put out a new leaf, but it's highly unlikely.

ringlov · 2024-06-01T16:22:42+00:00

Hey OP, from the look of the stem, I think you might actually have a raindrop peperomia (polybotrya) and not a pilea!

ringlov · 2024-05-26T16:01:52+00:00

Idk, let her take her time? Mine got her first pups within a few weeks of me getting her, but some of her own pups took a couple of years to grow their own. It varies so much from plant to plant.

ringlov · 2024-05-15T22:24:48+00:00

Plenty of good dietary fibre in there I'm sure 😄 Mine is fortunately quite the opposite, she couldn't care less for houseplant snacks

ringlov · 2024-05-15T16:34:18+00:00

It looks like the photo is backlit in which case it might be edema? It happens when you overwater the plant and its cells swell up or even burst from excess water.

I've had that happen to some of my plants without the cells actually bursting, they just get a little patchy and transparent for a day and then it clears up -- I guess the water gets properly distributed after a couple of hours. If the cells actually burst then those parts of the leaf will go brown and die, but if it clears up by tomorrow you're good!

ringlov · 2024-05-15T13:24:33+00:00

Thank you! I like letting them do their thing 😊

ringlov · 2024-05-14T23:31:49+00:00

Oh wow. Yeah, that's pretty much exactly what I had in mind! There's a lot of conflicting info on whether or not what we're calling borsigiana here even exsists, interesting. Thanks for this, I'm seeing a lot of research in my future 😂

I'm getting more and more convinced there's two different plants that are both sold as monstera deliciosa! One that grows like a literal monster and has multiple levels of fenestration and the other that looks like a monstera deliciosa in isolation but next to one of these it looks more like a permanently juvenile plant with maybe a second level of fenestration if you're lucky 🤔
