It's currently in my bathroom, which is clean but still not very sighty. And I'm currently trying to kinda trellis it as it has become quite unwieldy and I can't really move it much without risking it.

But I'm planning to relocate it after pruning next spring. As soon as the leaves have grown back, there will definitely be pictures! :D

It would help if you had some pictures of the leaves before they fell

At first they stay green (even the fallen ones). But as the tree keeps declining, some will turn brown along the edges, in an inverted v-shape, starting from the tip.

Temperature stress is something I'll have to look into. Thank you!

I'm sorry, the "5:1:1 mix" was referring to 5 parts pine, 1 part perlite, 1 part humus / worm castings.

The ferilizer changes throughout the year. But it's mostly 4-3-6, with some 5-1-4 in early spring, and some chelates, when I feel the plant needs them.

It just realized that, as a furry, I really don't like furry men, only furry men.

What the hell.

Ich hätte den Schienenverkehr gerne als Service. Genauso, wie die Parkplätze, Autobahn oder auch Müllabfuhr. Das ist alles teuer, aber da beschwert sich irgendwie keiner drüber, weil's ein Service ist.

Das ist so unglaublich frustrierend, weil's schon ewig dieselbe Thematik ist, aber irgendwie tut sich nix. Hab nicht mal Lust wieder 12 Absätze mit nuancierten Einzelpunkten wiederzukäuen. ._.

I had something similar with my monstera.

Personally, I aim for the biggest leaves I can. So I air-layered it at the newest node, and when I was sure it had enough roots (so it wouldn't get shocked), I replanted it with a plank.

I really underestimated how much roots the plant needed, but it has since caught on, is throwing out nice new leaves and is climbing well.

I also made a few single node cuttings that I will probably have to give away at some point.

Oh, the burden of other peoples thoughts~

I always find it weird when someone asks for my, or answers with their, profession. Because that usually says very little about someone. A better question is what someone likes to spend their free time with.

Most people have something they are passionate about. And the weirder, the better. Because weird hobbies are something that many feel judged for. But engaging positively with someones isopod collection, really tends to get people out of their shell.

It becomes something to bond over and it's much more interesting than "train conductor".

1l of (4°C) water weighs 1kg. 1kg (of anything) is 1000g. 1g of water is 1cm³. Stack 1000 1cm³ blocks to get a 10m high column. This column exerts 100kPa of pressure on its base. To heat it by 1°C requires 1kcal. And 1N would accelerate it by 1m/s every second.

I've posted this before on my mastodon, and on feddit.de, before the instance was shut down, but I think it's still a nice showcase how SI units interact with one another.

The worst thing we have in the metric system is kWh/1000h. It's just watts, but whoever designed the energy labels thought a bunch of zeros would be funny or something.

Und das vom eigenen Sohnemann. Immer diese Jugend von heute…

I've really thought about whether I even want to engage with this. Mostly because I see your comment as dishonest, misinformed or maybe just tone deaf; to voice the kindest interpretation I can muster, from what I have seen.


Here's the deal: The US is currently at a point where its already fragile and lackluster democracy could become completely meaningless within a matter of months.

There's a time to push for more. But not now. You banned people and deleted their comment for "electioneering"; for advocating for the best path forward currently available. You may not like the system or the dems, but there just isn't any momentum for anything else. That has to be built up first.

If you want to bitch and moan, feel free to do so after the immediate threat has been dealt with. Anything else is practically accelerationism and will lead to a terrible outcome and disenfranchise who knows how many people.

Bargain with what you have and don't overextend.

EDIT: I'll not engage with anything that doesn't also offer a practical, actionable solution. Striving for the best is great, but look around you. Abolishing the police is not on the table, and not voting because of a single issue is shooting at ones own foot.

EDIT #2: Words.
