Look who’s finally home! 🙌
I had to wait 4 months until the weather warmed up, rent a moving truck, and ride in the back with her, but she’s finally in her new spot 🌱
Extra shout out to the hubs who did the driving and carrying 💚💪🏻

@BEsucculent 😂 No vacations, the weather was just too chilly to safely move her outside. We both wanted to be extra cautious in order to minimize any shock.
@princesspitstop Even with the measurements it’s hard to know how it’s going to fit until it’s actually in. It’s just what I was hoping 💚 Niw I’d like it to slow down so that I never have to figure out what to do when it hits the ceiling 😂
@SuperbRaspfern Yes, I think so too, she’s very healthy. The woman I bought her from also give me a whole bunch of cuttings and some of her favorite plant food. Super thoughtful 💚
@debbiedo oh my goodness! Disregard my other message on your other post. 🤣. That’s an incredibly beautiful Norfolk! It’s gorgeous, I absolutely love your cute puppier just sitting there looking at it; maybe slightly confused as to why we have a forest friend in the house?? 🤣 I can’t wait to see you like it. 🫶🏻🩵🌸🐝
@DreamMachine Half concentration for indoor plants. She said it lasts for 6 months, have you heard of it?
OH. MY. GOSH!! @Boymom-plantmom just sent me a picture and my reply was: "Ummm. Where is that and where can I buy it??" 🤣
@sarah10orio I told Nadia I’m just sitting here staring at it, I’m in love 🥰 It’s good thing we have dinner plans, so at least I have to get up and eat 😂
@DreamMachine I don’t hate the idea of only having to do it twice a year, but I imagine there are some downsides too?

@debbiedo I’ve never used it, so this is just spit balling mind you, based off of my own poking around, but it appears to be pretty hands off. I see a lot of nursery’s using it. It’s temperature dependent so it releases less when it’s cold and more when it’s warm.
it doesn’t have 💯 of the required plant nutrients. 🧐 It looks like if you have the “ozmacote plus” version, that includes calcium and magnesium. But If you have the standard version, I would assume you might need to add a cal-mag supplement to your routine?
If anyone has an informative opinion on ozmacote fertilizer though, it would be Shannon @SuperbRaspfern 😄

Osmocot is fine but the NPK is quite high so you need to use caution. Anything that has numbers above 10 is quite risky. I actually used to use it a very long time ago, over a decade ago, and severely burned many of my plants roots. If you do choose to go that route, speaking from my personal experience only use 1/2 the amount and NEVER repeat or add more fertilizer before the whole 6 months has passed.
Because then you have to repot every single plant with fresh soil because it is literally a nightmare picking all those little white balls out.
Plus after those roots are burned the damage is done.
I always recommend liquid it's much easier to control the amount and flush out the soil if you are heavy handed.

@SuperbRaspfern Shannon, while we're on the subject...is there a particular liquid fertilizer you recommend? I use We The Wild at every watering but need a balanced NPK.
@stephonicle Yes, I always recommend and use myself Super Thrive Foilage Pro on all of my plants. It doesn't cost a lot and is incredibly effective.
You really can't go wrong with it. You will see a huge improvement in your plants.
In your case for the first month start with 1/4 strength. Month 2 1/2 strength. Then you should be good going to full strength every other watering. Eventually increasing to every watering. Just because, We The Wild has very very low amounts of NPK. Your plants won't be used to all those nutrients it can get salt shock otherwise from not being able to process the nutrients.
They eventually become acclimated to no nutrients, like a starved person. When the person or plant suddenly receives nutrients it can shock their systems so do it gradually.
@DreamMachine Hey Nadia just wanted to tag you on this because I thought it might interest you. 🩷

@Idplantthat The squirrels got used to us not having a dog, so Gage is enjoying catching them off guard 🙂
@SuperbRaspfern oh you also know me so very well 😁🫶
And I concur @stephonicle Superthrive Foliage Pro (not to be confused with Superthrive Vitamin Solution, nor Superthrive Grow 🙃) is the best. It’s stable, reliable, and all my plants seem to love it. …Sometimes I flirt with other fertilizers, 🤫 but I always come back to foliage pro.

@SuperbRaspfern how is your new house and your cute little ladies (chickens) doing?? I never really knew how smart chickens are; it’s kinda crazy how intelligent they are. They are kinda lil bad ass little buddies 🤣🐝🫶🏻🌸🩵
@Idplantthat Awe, they are really great. I added 10 chicks and moved them to the coop last week almost 6 months old. My sweet little innocent cutie patootie babies.
But then.....
One got hurt yesterday and started bleeding and fortunately I was out there because those small cannibals went insane pecking it, chasing it!!! I caught it and brought it inside to heal a bit. But boy can they be mean. It wasn't even my big hens going after it it was the little ones. 😢 Adorable but nature is sometimes cruel!!

@SuperbRaspfern yeah, chickens/birds can be unbelievable jerks! Especially if it’s one that’s injured, they seem to know and go after them. It’s crazy.. 🤣 🐓 Growing up we had hens and they could be like stinkers. But they are pretty amazing little feathery creatures
@Lynsplants Oh no! What’s happened with yours? Also it’s good to see you! How’s the new job going?
@debbiedo job is keeping me busy as well as spring planting! The dahlias are up above ground now! I’m trying to figure out where to plant 14 more fruit trees I bought haha! My island palm needed way more water misting and humidity than I could provide apparently
