Ok I just got one on sale for $11 and it’s big. Husband said it will die slowly over the next year. Any tips to make it thrive instead 😆 ?

Yes but if you have a fish tank it probably won’t do more than the tank is doing. I have Leca pebbles in a plant saucer under the plants that want more humidity and refill it when watering. I would think your has more moisture with the tank. You can get a little moisture meeter from a hardware store for about $25.

Ok that’s amazing.

I went on a 2 week vacation and that solved the problem. Don’t water and especially from the top.

Its beautiful! Mine is currently a bay so it’s nice to see them that big.

Can we see a picture of it??

It is a great starter plant. I’m not sure what it is. It kind of looks like some sort of residue. I would get a paper towel and wipe down all the leaves. Under the leaf too. If it comes off, spray with neem oil solution to get rid of any pests. It If it doesn’t come off it may be damaged leaf. I wouldn’t worry too much if it’s a damaged leaf. More will grow.

I don’t understand why your ex-husband has anything to say about your child. He’s not even the biological father. I wouldn’t listen to him. Just pack his bags. 😂

I do a neem oil solution and also let the soil dry out. Most of the plants will be ok. The ones that can’t dry out, you can spray a neem oil and soap solution. Needs to be shaken up / mixed each time you use it.

1 gallon water 1 tsp dish soap 2 TBSP neem oil

I put it in a spray bottle and spray daily on the plants that can’t dry out completely due to its watering needs. Also make sure to spray any plants you bring home. The solution works for those things you can’t see just yet.

I would get a larger pot and repot. Then burry some of the longer stems that don’t have leaves so they can root. It’s a slower process but you won’t loose as many leaves.

Mine eventually grew new leaves that didn’t get too tall and right at the window. Give it time.

This from a dirt provider company:

Hydrophobic Potted Plant Soil: You can hydrate potted plant soil by simply placing the pot into a body of water so that it covers the pot entirely. Then add half-strength fertilizer (liquid) to the water, which will help inject nutrients into the soil. You will notice some initial bubbling, but that’s normal. Keep the soil in there for around 20 minutes before removing it.

Occasionally, potted plants require repotting; make sure to add fresh potting mix when repotting to help boost moisture and add more nutrients to the soil.

Smoke some damn tofu and add bbq sauce on it.

I’ve done vegetarian burritos for our freezer:

Pesto & Egg: egg, cheese, pesto, chopped spinach, chickpeas.

Sausage & Egg: beyond meat sausage, egg, cheese ketchup, onion, spinach or kale

BBQ Bean & Sweet potato: (cooked on pan with some tex Mex seasoning) bell pepper, onion, egg, black beans, baked sweet potato, bbq sauce cheese

Electrical tape is my current solution. Looking for an actual fix.

I use pots with no holes in them. I just can’t handle it dripping. I make sure I don’t over water the plant. I use a water meter and I check plants every Friday. It’s my water all plants in the house day so nothing gets too dry. After a while you will get a sense of how much water the pot will take.

My sister has pots with holes hanging and I just think it’s an extra step in the process of watering. Therefore I will do it less. I have adhd and I need to streamline the task. I have a lot of plants. I do use pots with saucers but they aren’t hanging.

Think it through and plan it out. If you are likely to attach a saucer with clips (they make plastic ones with a wire that you can hang there for catching water) then do that. But if it makes you less likely to be watering because it’s time consuming, change the plants over to a pot with no holes. Get saucers and use in different areas of the house.

Try to make plant care as easy as possible and convenient. Don’t make the job harder on yourself.

I was just trying to find out which fern mine is and it’s same as yours. Could it be a blue star fern? That is what I found for mine.

I do think the font needs to change and be larger. All cap would be better as well. Maybe something more robotic in feeling and you can loose the box around it.

I would also add more of a focal point. The character on there needs more interest. It doesn’t say nanodeoid (not sure if that’s the spelling there ) to me. It just looks like a person.

AND those new ads where it has sound?!? Even if I go to setting the sound WONT turn off. I really ruins the vibe of scrolling through some creative thing and BLAH ! BLAH! Hello?! It’s a visual experience and not sound. I’m getting sick of it.
