Hello! Minor updates
Homalomena sp. 'Silver Red'. I have NEVER seen a plant grow SO SO SO well. New leaf AND three blooms. Like wow
Nepenthes 'Viking' x veitchii 'Bario' seedling. The pitchers are starting to get fatter!
I dunno what my Alocasia 'Platinum' is doing? Looks like a bloom???? It's the top cutting that rooted, and the structure is kinda stunted. I'm not too sure how to remove it cos i want this guy to mature first

Good morning @Araceae Homalomena is showing out π€© maybe itβs the fluval, like a nutrient rush.
The little furry trap is so stinkinβ adorable.
Hmmm .. time will have to tell us whatβs up on Alocasia .. π€

@SunSoilLove i'm quite hopeful for its recovery. It was my first plant, i don't want it to die now
@Araceae id probably let it grow until another leaf start to emerge then cut it off if it is a flower. But it sure is looking like it
@TheConservator i dont even know if it will develop further. It looks sorta stunted or like it's being aborted
@Araceae oh my yes the first plant is so special!!
@SunSoilLove it's the only one so far that my aunt has approved lol. She doesn't like that i keep bringing plants back home despite her saying not to
Good morning to plant peeps here on #TheThread !
Donna @SunSoilLove hello!! π
I have lots to water up today, and really wish about now I had already ordered that water pump Sonny talked about this past weeks or so. Could definitely use it today. π«£
More cleaning chores my maid did not do this week. Toilets, wash clothes and such.. π
It will be two weeks this coming Monday that I got this begonia cutting and I am excited that it is showing lots of root growth! So potting it up. I made the mistake of putting it in my west window so the leaves are burnt but,, hey I got roots!
πβ€οΈπΊ
Bunch of βturtlesβ in the spa at the moment.
Some slow growing and some have decided to put out bigger leaves.
Split leaf opening.
Not as cold here as the last two nights have been.
And my fellowβs team won 41-6 last night. ππ»
Wishing everyone a great Saturday!!

@CourtlyKingfern yaayyy roots π little does she know how good sheβs about to have it π
Split leaf opening looks like someoneβs π aunt before βοΈ.. or ME before βοΈπ
I did run downstairs and knock out all the watering (mostly checking) since theyβre all semi hydro except .. one, I think.
For some reason I do not like watering and checking on everyone unless the grow lights are on. Iβm weird. π€·ββοΈ

@Araceae Iβve heard that plant obsessions cause disobedience. Itβs just a rumor, though ..
@TheConservator I miss you; whatβs up in your π and whatβcha got on deck for this weekend?
@RealSimpleMama have fun with a gaggle of girlies all night. π
Miss those days of exhaustion and sometimes worry, but always creativity and fun! π

Most were in my tent but a few of the smaller 4β ones were around the house. @CourtlyKingfern yeah theyre big windows really too. Once the tree outside totally drops its leaves ill need a sheer or 30% sunscreen minimum
@TheConservator I learn something new every time you post something I think.
Thanks.. ππ»
Thanks.. ππ»
@SunSoilLove oh yes and itβs double fun because we have some siblings coming, weβve all been friends for a long time and I teach them all too. The girls are only 9-10 so itβs their first sleepover. Weβre excited! Nacho bar, movies, tons of cute coloring books and nail stickers, new pajamasβ¦ itβll be so fun!
@CourtlyKingfern i just get em for my windows but i also use 1 in my tent draped over a wire shelf for lower light plants
@CourtlyKingfern thats what my 70% is for
@CourtlyKingfern what size sprayer did you order? I prob shouldve said the 2 gallon might be to big for alot of you! 1/2-1 gallon is prob best for most
@CourtlyKingfern andβ¦.πππ you garden so those nets are great for some veggies to!
@CourtlyKingfern Nice job on the props we all love #RootPorn . Good morning to all . Iβm on a mission to find a pink micans of course I saw it here on Greg. I refuse to get from Etsy because the shipping is as much as the cutting or plants . We have a local nursery I might check out today itβs a whopping 72 degrees here today. I say bring the winter on and get on to next spring π«
@SunSoilLove oh i did a simple new terrarium with a piece of ironwood sphag and live moss for my hoya serpens
@ILoveMyPlants theyre a tough start i think. I have a pink aurea micans and is been a *****π doesnt have any pink now cause it was crammed in my room to long. But normally it has a pink shimmer and some pink splotching
@CourtlyKingfern yayyyyy Iβm so excited about this new girl. What is her name?
@TheConservator you did a simple terrarium .. π€¦ββοΈ I had to research, buy supplies, fuss and fester over ideas .. ofc you threw together a simple one! You da π£
I LOOOVE the simplicity of this and how it highlights the Serpens like art! Very zen. β€οΈ

@TheConservator I have one gallon cheapo sprayer from π‘ depot and itβs perfect. @CourtlyKingfern
@SunSoilLove lol well i had all@of it right here so that makes it easy. And i prob will add 1 or 2 other plants after the serpens takes hold
@TheConservator damnit now I need a Serpens.
Iβm on buying hiatus. Big expenses coming up. Surely a little Serpens wonβt be much ..

@TheConservator oooh π cranberry moss (also I spy SW pot π)
@TheConservator that makes sense the moss I bought came in a βsheetβ that was likely grown that way. Rehydrated for 10 mins and itβs perfect.
@SunSoilLove @TheConservator I just read that one post. I'm dying laughing. What's wrong with people?? Thanks for solving the mystery. π«ππ§ HAHAHA
@SunSoilLove yup moss is really resilient! Can even be shipped in freezing weather with no harm
@princesspitstop lol im not sure why he posted that???π i guess joining the #gregteam deserves recognized π€·ββοΈ. Did you see these fake photos this guys posting saying he took emππ? Ai generated on alot of em and the rest have hidden trademarks in them. Alot right in the center barely visible until you zoomππ€ͺ! The lilypad and the green forest are teally bad! I mean cmon if your going to lie atleast dont insult my intelligence doing it lol
Lol have fun doing itπ @princesspitstop
@TheConservator yeah I saw that lol when you said π€ I thought they weren't hiring?? What changed? Haha Stinker. We're changing your name to @theinspector instead of @TheConservator!! π€£
@TheConservator Do de do de do Inspector Gadget!
@TheConservator Remember It's a privilege Sonny not a right. ππ
@TheConservator I just looked at the Lily pad pic you were talking about and that's the guy's name in the middle of the picture that posted it. I'm pretty sure it's his trademark.
@SunSoilLove im nlt sure tbh. I think i paid my hoya lady 30$ for that cuttingπ€π€π€?
@princesspitstop yes his name was bob. I noticed that to but i still dont think theyre his pics. And even if they are hisβ¦. Thats not real lol! So either way hes full of π©π
Wanna post those thats fine. Just dont make up some elaborate story about how he had to hike into a dangerous part of the swamp to get it and how experienced he is and blah blah blah blah!π€·ββοΈπ just post β look i took this picture!β Then i cant contradict you cause you did take it! Straight off the web lol
@TheConservator sorry I ended up with company for a while. And repotting a few plants that I was not aware needed it! π©
I ended up getting a 2 gallon size I figured I could put less water in but if too small I couldnβt add to it. π«£
I should have mine later today or tomorrow.
But still need to water what I have before I get it.
I procrastinate on watering sometimes. Error on side of not enough than too much. π³

@CourtlyKingfern 2 gal is fine and yup put as much or little as you want. Just thought it might be a bit big for some of you to drag around. But i dont mind myself
@CourtlyKingfern im usually like that , less over more. But when i started bottom watering cause of distilled water that changed drastically and im convinced thats where most my summers growing issues started. Now that im back to top watering things seam to be turning around π
@TheConservator I am pretty sure I have left some of my plants in the water too long. Doing the bottom water deal. So I try now to really put timers on the soak deal. I also think it depends on the soil type as well. As you would know. π€―
@PrizedShadscale oh Kerry I canβt wait till spring to see them in there either
@TheConservator you have just ruined my thoughts on those photoβs .. π«£
I am sorry I guess I am not that observant but did wonder. π
I am sorry I guess I am not that observant but did wonder. π
@CourtlyKingfern alot were real photos. But when he lied about a few well now i just wont believe he took any of em. Even if alot were real.
And tried to play the lily pads off as ALOT of reflections! Lol @CourtlyKingfern
@TheConservator itβs ok, we all have some grumpy times.
I just had to hold in my own grumpiness with my daughter who needs her vehicles oil changed and other stuff done but is not off from work to get it done (Teacher) in time but her other half could!
π π
I just had to zip it today. And say to myself⦠la la.. la..la..la
With no advice.. π€’π€

@TheConservator oh that did take on a nice shape.
This is kinda what I want to do with the bowl and pitcher I have and I have seen one made before that is just gorgeous. I also thought it is something I could bring in come winter if need be.

@TheConservator I kind of like the βarmsβ it reminds me of the inflatableβ balloon they have on commercials that waves itβs arms and moves all over the place. π€£π€£
@CourtlyKingfern lmao it actually does! Now thats all ill picture when i look at it π
@CourtlyKingfern btw when you drill that big bowl. Youll be able to drill it from the top. So in that case you can just put 1/2 inch water in the bowl instead of a sponge. Anything that holds water and you can get from the top thats the best way. If you cant then its the bottom and a sponge. Hardest part is starting it! Trick is hold it at a slight angle to start. So only 1 side of the hole saw is hitting the material. Then as it starts to set a groove you bring the drill up to 90 degrees And go. Careful at the end or it might chip out the back side. But its really not a big deal if it does youll never see it
Still had to rewire but i decided im not pulling the shelves apart. I just dropped the middle shelf down and sat it on top the existing shelf lol. Then i lowered the 2 nd shelf lower to the second shelf the distance i wanted from the lights and that left me a bottom shelf for drip trays maybe for accidents
@TheConservator that succulent dish is so pretty!! π
@PrizedShadscale π±π€―π³ 600 bulbs!?!?
@TheConservator πYour windows and walls look great sitting so nice in your plants . To die for but so much work π± Iβm to lazy to transplant my pothos
#TheThread Unfortunately, I managed to catch a cold and am having to work this afternoon instead of enjoying nice weather and plant chores. Trying to make the best of it.
@TheConservator oh yeah and that guy had been tagging a lot of us in their stuff. Like dude I donβt even know who you are.
@PrizedShadscale aaaaaaah that looks so fun! What did you plant? Iβve always wanted to do this
@ILoveMyPlants oh im dragging my butt around dont think im not lol
@ILoveMyPlants thank you! I picked my walls by something i thought would look@good and offset all my green plants ππ€·ββοΈ
Wellβ¦. I guess I missed all the fun the last couple days !! All I have to say isβ¦(Iβve been trying to go back and catch up) oh yeah back to what I was going to say!!! I stick to the thread pretty muchβ¦ this is my vibe and if some people donβt enjoy it or what is said β¦ no one of forcing anyone to read what we say or comment backβ¦ but yβall are my plant friends and I enjoy our banter β¦.
@RealSimpleMama peonies, iris, alium, tulips, paperwhites, daffodils, scilla, and anemone. Will see what lives.
Managed to get half the irrigation set up. Will have to wait for tomorrowβs Amazon shipment for the other half.

@TheConservator Whatβs in that container π€·ββοΈ I have the same one and opened it twice in the 7 months of having. I was going to ask if I should cut this back .
@TheConservator hey again thanks for the drill tips. ππ»
@princesspitstop hey, miss this earlier but I love your plants post! πππ»
@CourtlyKingfern Awe thanks sweet cheeks!! π₯° I love your Anthurium and stupid jealous of your weather π lol π How are your Hoya cuttings coming along?
@SunSoilLove my plant that I needed to take out of water into the dirt?
Truly do t know except whats on the tag. If it makes it, it will be my second begoniai have from just a cutting. ππ»
I got it off of Etsy from the attached company.

@princesspitstop all look pretty good so far. I am afraid to do much with them. ππ» they are located at a south facing window and also under a grow light for 12 hrs.
How about yours?
How about yours?
@CourtlyKingfern All fingers and toes crossed for this begonia! π€
@CourtlyKingfern I only have mine under grow lights. I got in there yesterday to take a look and I'm glad I did because the Sphag was drying out in one of the boxes so I sprayed it down. Most of them are growing roots all up and down the stems not just at the cut end like I was expecting. It's happening so fast I need to go to Lowe's to get a bag of my favorite Orchid Bark mix. I'll probably go tomorrow.
@SunSoilLove awl! Thank my sweet planty friend!! I have just a few begonias and still trying to figure out what that want! π
@Hoyaobsessed Right there with YOU, Sis! ππ
@TheConservator and you did a great job with color selection!
@RefinedSandwort Ugh! Hope you feel better FAST!
@princesspitstop oh my they look pretty good!
I already have on hand a Hoya mix I got from Amazon . So hope this will work

@CourtlyKingfern I can pretty much guarantee that if I'm able to get roots to grow you'll be just fine lol Meaning I have no idea what I'm doing π
@SunSoilLove Thank you! The picture you started the post with this AM is the Saturday I would like to have! Iβm home from work and now about to reload on the cold medicine!
@RefinedSandwort Joy I sure hope you feel better soon ππ»
@ILoveMyPlants its sphagnum growing in there. You can cut it back or press it down gently.
You can open it more often and wipe down the sides to keep it more clear and getting more light. I just use a paper towel and long terrarium tweezers @ILoveMyPlants
I just crack mine when they get dew on the sides also and it will usually dry up pretty fast on its own. Just gotta remember to put the lid back on π±π
