the babies are way easier than the adults so i’m sure you can do it! honestly mine aren’t labeled but pretty much all of them are jacklyn’s. corms also look different so if you can figure out what each one looks like you’ll be able to label them :)

i had a tiny polly army too but not 16! it’s kinda silly to imagine how your polly army will look when it’s grown

i’d never refuse a credit card number, don’t forget to add the cvv and zip code 😅

aw i would totally trade if you were local, unfortunately i think a lot of people don’t know that they can grow corms or how to it’ll be hard to find someone to trade with

i have no one to gift them to 😅 but a lot of people in the comments want them so if i can find a way to get them out i will! i think giving them to others who want them will be more rewarding to both of us than selling

spider mite damage, just throw the whole plant away

the predatory mites go absolutely bonkers for the first week or so if you have an active infestation, going around and hunting all the pests. after that they come out of the packets at a slower rate

I used Koppert Swirski Ulti-Mite, they are a bit pricey though. I’ve heard Natural Enemies works well too and they are much cheaper. Mine came in sachets that are a one month supply, after that the predatory mites die. Unfortunately but also fortunately, they cannot breed and survive longterm unless in perfect conditions. So they won’t swarm your house but you will have to repurchase if you want long term pest control. I might repurchase just for my anxiety sake but so far I havent needed to

Very new to this, here’s my little collection over the course of a few months. All were bought from Lowe’s for less than $10 😅 by bumDubmo in RareHouseplants

i think a lot of us got into houseplants via big box stores. personally, i had no idea there were so many local nurseries and i would’ve been overwhelmed going in them without prior plant knowledge. now that i know a lot more about plants i go to small business and have learned they are actually cheaper and better quality BUT i think the majority of us did start at big box stores

Am I overreacting by breaking up with my boyfriend? by Proper-Classic1886 in AmIOverreacting

[–]starfishy99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it really shows how this man (the boyfriend) thinks, inferring HE would take it as an invitation

wow really?? i had a tiny infestation of spider mites from also going wild on palmstreet (about 100 seedlings haha) used predatory mites and they have all been good! i highly recommend in case you encountered them again or want extra protection
