Hello wonderful plant people. It was a beautiful Saturday. Here is a before and after of my lithop plant. This is the one that I thought was dying from overwatering. It was simplely shedding. Itā€™s now it looks like a brand new plant. ļæ¼ā™„ļøāœŒļøšŸ‘ @AdonicKohleria2 @applepie @BabeVila @BuffCaperspurge @CutePolypremum @DanDenMan @DreamMachine @FunBoglaurel81 @HFplantoasis @ @HummingbirdMint @Idplantthat @DreamMachine @ILoveMyPlants @Jadedbelle #SucculentLove @Jujube @Luckeecharm1 @maci.in.bloom @ModestCoconut13 @SolaceInSunshine @RefinedSandwort @princesspitstop @Ms.Persnickety @BEsucculent @MamaLinne @SillyPlantGirl @Preciousplants1 @DearOrchid79 @4eva

This is my broad leaf aloe. I just transplanted it into a 12 inch terracotta pot this morning. #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #SucculentLove @AdonicKohleria2 @applepie @BabeVila @BuffCaperspurge @CutePolypremum @DanDenMan @DreamMachine @HFplantoasis #PlantCorner @HummingbirdMint @Jadedbelle @Jujube @maci.in.bloom @ModestCoconut13 @Ms.Persnickety @Preciousplants1 @princesspitstop @QuickKalopanax @sarah10orio @SillyPlantGirl @SizableSuncup20 @smushface @stephongreg @TopCoriander6 @DearOrchid79 @izzyandsugar @somewhatsara @Preciousplants1

I have a couple of Fairy Washboard that look like they are putting out a bloom. What does one of their blooms look like? Is the long stalk what the bloom is on? #succulentlove #happyplants

Hello everyone. Here is another African Milk Plant. This wonderful plant was given to me as, a gift, about two months ago. It is only about a third the size of my other Milk plants. #SucculentLove @AdonicKohleria2 @BabeVila @BuffCaperspurge @CutePolypremum @DanDenMan @DreamMachine @HFplantoasis @HummingbirdMint @Jadedbelle @Jujube #RarePlants @ModestCoconut13 @Ms.Persnickety @Preciousplants1 @princesspitstop @QuickKalopanax @sarah10orio @izzyandsugar @stephongreg @Kaitlinfaith_

Omg, I had never seen a baby bumblebee (heā€™s so tiny) before, until this AM, as my cactus flower began itsā€™ ascension. My husband said the bee was thinking, ā€œI just found the coolest Airbnb everā€. šŸ šŸ¤— #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #OutdoorGrowing #PlantLove #FloweringPlants

So last night I was up late making a cutting pot for my husbandā€™s work. Itā€™s a 10-12 gallon planter and then a few other smaller ones; but this ensures everyone can pick what they want, but I had to share; #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #TheThread #TheWateringHole #Caladium #Philodendron #AlocasiaAddicts #GrowLights #NewPlantMom #PetsAndPlants #MonsteraMonday #PlantCorner #BeforeAndAfter #PlantShelfie #RarePlants #PlantID

Hello happy plant people. For several days I thought my Lithop was dying possibly from over watering. It had turned brown and crunchy on the top and looked like it was about to burst. Yesterday, after looking at it closely I realized it was shedding its leaves. Up until now I have never seen a little lithop loose leaves. šŸ¤”. Here is a closeup photo I just took.

Hello everyone. Here is a photo of an aloe that was given to me this morning. This is a rescue plant. Its owner, sadly, did not want it. When I get it back to my house I will start working on it. Better pot, better soil and I will prune those brown edges off. It was covered in Spider-Mite Webs. I took all them off immediately. @AdonicKohleria2 @BabeVila @BuffCaperspurge @CutePolypremum @DanDenMan @DreamMachine @HFplantoasis @HolyLacealoe @HummingbirdMint @izzyandsugar @Ponytailmom @smushface #SucculentLove @Ms.Persnickety @Jadedbelle @Jujube @Preciousplants1 @princesspitstop @SillyPlantGirl @DaringColtsfoot @TopCoriander6 @MamaLinne @Ponytailmom

Iā€™m trying to decide what to do with my overgrown kitchen window. Itā€™s a serious mess in here, so donā€™t look closely. šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļøšŸ¤£ Iā€™m trying to figure out what and where I should put this majestic and cast iron Milky Way. My polka dot has gone totally crazy as well. Hmmā€¦ šŸ¤Ø Should I keep it busy or start propping it up? šŸ§ Any ideas??šŸ’” #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #TheThread #TheWateringHole #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #PetsAndPlants #PlantCorner #BeforeAndAfter #PlantShelfie #RarePlants #PlantID

I normally wouldnā€™t make a post like this, but I wanted to share this with you all. Please take it as just me explaining monosilic acid vs. potassium silica. Iā€™ve seen a lot of people who have been asking but donā€™t fully understand. So I just hope this can help. *Beyond the Hype: Monosilicic Acid vs. Potassium SilicateSubtitle: The actual chemistry of plant armor and soil health. 1: The Core Problem with Garden GossipThe Myth: "Silica is a chemical hype product that builds up salts and ruins plants long-term."The Reality: Silicon is the 2nd most abundant element in the Earth's crust. Nature uses it to build plant skeleton and defense systems.The Confusion: Not all silica bottles are created equal. Mixing up the forms of silica leads to terrible advice. 2: The Two ContendersContender A: Potassium Silicate (\(K_{2}SiO_{3}\))An old-school, industrial, raw mineral salt.Contender B: Monosilicic Acid (\(H_{4}SiO_{4}\))A highly refined, bio-available organic molecule.The Golden Rule: Plants can only absorb Monosilicic Acid. 3: Potassium Silicate (The Heavy Salt)What it is: Raw silica melted down with potassium carbonate.How it works: It is a massive, complex molecule. The plant cannot absorb it directly; soil microbes must break it down over weeks into Monosilicic Acid first.The Danger: It is highly alkaline (pH of 11+). It dramatically spikes soil pH and leaves behind heavy potassium salt residues.The Result: If you don't flush your soil, this is the form that causes the nutrient lockouts people complain about. 4: Monosilicic Acid (The Specialized Tech)What it is: Fully bioavailable, pre-broken-down silica (like PowerSi).How it works: Because it is already in the exact form the plant requires, the roots absorb it instantly within minutes of application.The Safety: It is completely pH-neutral and highly concentrated. You use tiny, microscopic doses compared to raw salts.The Result: Zero salt buildup, zero soil pH drifting, and instant structural armor for the plant. 5: The "Marijuana Hype" Reality CheckThe Claim: "Silica is just a gimmick popularized by cannabis growers for fast growth."The Fact: High-value commercial growers adopted it because they invest heavily in laboratory testing and plant tissue analysis.The Agriculture Truth: Massive commercial agricultural operations use bioavailable silica on rice, wheat, and sugarcane to prevent lodging (falling over) and combat high-heat stress. 6: Physical Structural Density vs. Fake GrowthSynthetic Hormones (e.g., Superthrive): Artificially forces cells to stretch and grow longer. This can create weak, watery, floppy tissues that easily snap or burn in high heat.Monosilicic Acid: Deposits a rigid, glassy matrix inside the existing cell walls. It creates "leathery" leaves and thick stalks that mechanically block pests and lock in water during heatwaves. 7: How to Safely Use Silica Without LockoutPrioritize Rainwater: Rainwater is naturally soft and slightly acidic, which beautifully dissolves nutrients and keeps soil pH balanced. The "Weekly Weakly" Method: Feed lower, consistent doses of premium inputs rather than heavy, shock-inducing concentrations.Routine Flushes: A clean water flush every few months prevents any potential trace mineral accumulation, completely invalidating the "long-term death" myth. 8: Summary: Work with Chemistry, Not TrendsChoose Monosilicic Acid for instant absorption, zero salt buildup, and complete pH stability. Avoid Raw Silicate Salts if you want to prevent long-term soil crusting and nutrient lockout.Look at the Leaves: Thick stalks and un-tearable, leathery leaves don't lie. The plant's physical structure is the ultimate proof of health. The Planetary Reality Check (Earth's Crust Chemistry)The Science: Oxygen (46.1%) and Silicon (28.2%) are the top two most abundant elements in the Earthā€™s crust. Together, they make up 4 out of every 5 atoms available on the surface of the globe. What is Silica?: Silica is simply Silicon Dioxide (\(SiO_{2}\))ā€”a natural bond of the two most common things on Earth.The Logic Gap: Claiming silica is an artificial "hype chemical" is like claiming water or oxygen is a fad. Earth is silica. The True "Hype" vs. Actual Plant ArchitectureSynthetic Vitamin Blends: Products relying heavily on synthetic growth hormones (like NAA/Auxins found in Superthrive) trick the plant into rapidly elongating its cells. This forces fast growth but creates weak, bloated cell tissue. Monosilicic Acid: Does not manipulate plant hormones. It provides the literal physical building materials. It places a solid, glassy layer between the plant's outer cuticle and cell walls.The Verdict: One stretches cells thin; the other reinforces them with physical structural armor.

Hello wonderful plant people. This is my Zebra Plant. I have had for it several years and this is the first time it has bloomed. Wow itā€™s growing a foot long vine with the flowers developing on top. I kept it outside however it got an inch of rain on it yesterday so itā€™s now on my walkway on its own table. #SucculentLove @AdonicKohleria2 @BabeVila @BuffCaperspurge @CutePolypremum @DanDenMan @DreamMachine @FamedGymealily @HFplantoasis @HolyLacealoe @HolyLacealoe @HummingbirdMint @Jujube @ModestCoconut13 @Preciousplants1 @HummingbirdMint @princesspitstop @DaringColtsfoot @TopCoriander6 @RefinedSandwort @RefinedSandwort @Ponytailmom
