Omg, I had never seen a baby bumblebee (he’s so tiny) before, until this AM, as my cactus flower began its’ ascension. My husband said the bee was thinking, “I just found the coolest Airbnb ever”. 🐝 🤗 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #OutdoorGrowing #PlantLove #FloweringPlants

Good morning my lovely #TheWateringHole loves. 🥱 It is early here on the west coast 🌊☀️ And I need to rush off to work, but I figured I would at least start a post this morning for anyone feeling chatty. 👥🗣️🌿 I know I sure am, and it’s not just because I don’t want to go to work, but I also don’t want to go work in 91° 🥵 I just melt. (Our work “AC” is more like a suggestion @princesspitstop 😉 ) plus I might be serving outside. 🫣 Wish me luck and no melting and hopefully I can be done soon to get back to business: PLANTS 🌱🌿🪴 ☺️ Tell me what’s going on today in your world? #TheWateringHole #brunchataudreys #happyplants #hoya #Greggers #greggang #newgrowth #prayerplant #hoyahangout #OrchidLovers #Orchid #TradescantiaNanouk #CalatheaCorner #AlocasiaAddicts #SucculentSquad #CactusClique #BegoniaBunch #DreamMachine #MonsteraMonday #Philodendron #tipsandtricks #EcoTherapy #crazyplantlady #PlantingOnABudget #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantTherapy #PlantAddict #plantfriendsarethebestfriends #adhdplantlovers #horticulturaltherapy #plantnerd

So last night I was up late making a cutting pot for my husband’s work. It’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

I’m trying to decide what to do with my overgrown kitchen window. It’s a serious mess in here, so don’t look closely. 🤦‍♀️🤣 I’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. Hmm… 🤨 Should I keep it busy or start propping it up? 🧐 Any ideas??💡 #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #TheThread #TheWateringHole #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #SucculentLove #PlantTherapy #GrowLights #PetsAndPlants #PlantCorner #BeforeAndAfter #PlantShelfie #RarePlants #PlantID

I normally wouldn’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. I’ve seen a lot of people who have been asking but don’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 Earth’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 (\(SiO_{2}\))—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.

Well, what can I say? I ran out of spots today in my overflow containers, so when my impulse Japanese strawberries came 🍓, I’m so excited, you guys! My Japanese strawberries 🍓 are Momo Ichigo; Kaorino; Akihime; Japanese Angel strawberries. 🍓 So this was the solution to my problem. 🤦‍♀️🤣 My dogs don’t use this old pool anymore. So I drilled holes, filled it, and made it into a hidden strawberry garden in my backyard. 🤣🐝🌸🩵. I’m going to just copy and paste some quick Google definitions on them if anyone is interested. Momo Ichigo (Peach Strawberry - 桃薫): Native to Tokushima, these rare berries have a distinct, subtle peach aroma and flavor. They are highly juicy, mildly sweet, and not overly sugary, delivering an incredibly refreshing profile. Kaorino (かおり野): Translated as "scented field," this award-winning variety from Mie Prefecture is famous for its vibrant floral fragrance and honey-like sweetness. It is exceptionally low in acidity with a long conical shape and firm, juicy flesh. Akihime (あきひめ): Developed in Shizuoka, this is one of Japan’s most popular varieties. It is distinguished by its elongated shape and melt-in-your-mouth soft flesh. It is wonderfully sweet with minimal tartness, making it a favorite for both fresh eating and "all-you-can-eat" farm tours in Japan. Angel Strawberries (天使のいちご - Tenshi no Ichigo / Awayuki): These luxurious, pale white to blush-pink strawberries have red seeds. Despite their unripe appearance, they are remarkably sweet, soft, and have a unique flavor profile that sets them apart from traditional red berries. For anyone interested in finding these here is where I got them. https://. #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #Strawberry #PlantAddict #TheThread #TheWateringHole #PlantTherapy #PetsAndPlants #PlantCorner #BeforeAndAfter
