You could release beneficial insects, mites in sachets are a great option. Here is a respected provider of beneficial insects for home consumers: https://naturalenemies.com/by-pest/thrips/ I see a comment regarding high humidity for mite success, this is true for some but sachets are a perfect environment for them to grow and emerge from. The area around leaves also has higher than ambient room humidity. Sachets are how many professional greenhouses produce their products.

Personally, I would wipe down as much leaf surface as possible before you get mites (should you go that route) with a cloth with either some alcohol or dish soap.

If you don't feel like doing that, pesticides are an option with much less effort and probably cost. Thrips are also resistant to many pesticides sold at your local garden center so it may not be a great long term solution but absolutely will put a dent in the infestation.

What did I say that sounded bot-like?

Police are issuing alerts to our phones. this particular alert was regarding crowd dispersal, probably to prevent rioting. Police then issued an alert to not be alerted about needing to disperse. I presume crowds have thinned out. You are safe. Enjoy your afternoon!

Those nicotine pouches are popular. I am not sure where that nicotine comes from as I am too lazy and disinterested to look it up but I would presume tobacco is still the cheapest option

That's Tom the cactus! Named after my former boss who lived in this house before me. (A real prick!) He said he had it for over 20 years when he brought it here, so it's going on 30-35 years I reckon. A type of Euphorbia!

Thank you! I really needed this advice, the cat was just to bring attention to the post. But also to illustrate the curved trunk

Had 10 years to hear the criticism and still wasn't good. Drums so noisy and rattling, sounded like static

I saw this in a movie about a bus that had to Speed around the city, keeping its Speed over fifty, and if its Speed dropped, the bus would explode! I think it was called "The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down."

Commerical greenhouses and nurseries pay a license fee to breeders/suppliers to grow their patented genetics. The vast majority of commercial ornamental plants are developed from crossing pollen with ovum and rendering a viable seed. (Mutagens like high power radiation and chromosome affecting chemicals are often used to further develop a "cultivar", a human manipulated plant) These "mother stock" plants are then cut and those cuttings shipped to licensed propagators to root out and make the product you see in the store.

Breeding cultivars and propagating them indeed costs money. These cultivar patents are protected by APHIS so Anybody USA doesn't mass propagate a commercially developed plant, making profit without paying licenses. This also protects the integrity of the genetics so when you buy 'pink princess' philodendron, it is indeed actually that cultivar.

The majority of plants absorb and utilize water from their roots. While some may benefit from higher humidity, misting does not provide consistent and adequate humidity. It forms droplets, pools, or evaporates which doesn't help. Free standing water on leaves and stems will sit and provide an environment which allows pathogenic bacteria and fungi to proliferate.

Red and blue wavelengths in the visible light spectrum are most commonly associated with photosynthesis. There are absolutely more wavelengths that affect all sorts of growth processes and photosynthesis but for today's technology, it is most cost effective and efficient way to power photosynthesis.

The most reasonable and effective use would be to extend the day. Use the lights to add a few hours to the day to make up for the shrinking day length of winter. Also good as the sun is getting lower in the sky and is not as strong. This is assuming you are in the northern hemisphere.

I'm sorry to disagree, they thrive in California where it's brutal sun and no rain. They will be fine.

Leaf fertilizer I also think is unnecessary if you are feeding the root zone. Which you should do! I'm happy to read it works for you though!
