2024.05.19 01:28 Comprehensive-Path33 Trying to nurse back a Calathea Freddie to life!
Hello! Just got this plant on sale from my local plant store since it’s looks a little rough. I bought it as is so I am not sure how often it was watered. I think I know the basics like bright indirect light, extra humidity, keep the soil moist but not soaking wet. submitted by Comprehensive-Path33 to plantclinic [link] [comments] My questions is what potting soil should I use? I have general indoor potting mix. Would that work? I feel like I see mixed things what soil to use. Do I need to cut of the crispy brown parts of the leaves? Or does the whole leaf have to go? Or do I just the leaves as is? And the dead stems in the middle seem like they can just be removed, right? Thanks! |
2024.05.19 01:08 NonieMarie Roots no plants
When I repotted a long stem broke so I removed leaves. I've had my leaves in pon under a dome. Each leaf has a stem and there are lots of roots. There are no new plants growing, just roots. Is there any hope for new plants? submitted by NonieMarie to hoyas [link] [comments] |

Looks like some kind of wild lettuce but it's completely smooth void of hairs or spines on both the leaf and stem unlike other wild lettuce types I've researched.

2024.05.18 20:56 cocolimenuts I grew this Monstera from a single stem…
My friend was selling propagations and accidentally broke the leave off of the stem of one she was selling, so she just gave it to me for free. That was 4-5 years ago. submitted by cocolimenuts to houseplants [link] [comments] It took about 6 months for the stem to grow a legit root system in water, then I planted her. Another year (year and a half?) for her first fenestrated leaf. I just repotted her about 2 months ago because she was getting too big for the pot, and I need to legit bury that moss pole in a deeper pot. She’s currently outside and just covered her with gravel because i just realized she’s the source of my gnat problem…I hope those little fuckers die a slow suffocating death. She usually lives in a southwest facing window. I realized when I set her out how far she’s come. And I’m proud. |
2024.05.18 20:37 Blegegeg I inherited this from my great grandmother, what is it?
There is one big green leaf per stem, which I support right now with string because it was quite deformed when I got it. It’s an inside plant, and when I search on google all I get is Monstera, which it is clearly not. submitted by Blegegeg to PlantIdentification [link] [comments] |
2024.05.18 20:19 ProduceSmooth8887 Help me find a dish towel I was obsessed with as a child
Let me just start this by saying this is EXTREMELY specific and kind of niche,so I totally get it if it’s not able to be found. I’m autistic and I had a dish towel I completely obsessed with as a child (point and laugh I know lol) I carried that thing EVERYWHERE until I was about 12 and it started falling apart so I was forced to put it up and I lost it while moving :( I was hoping I could find a copy of it since it wasn’t hand made specifically for me or anything,it was just a random dish towel I found in my kitchen as a toddler and took for myself. It was solid pink,fringed at the top and it had a tulip at the bottom,sewn on it. The tulip had a white head and a solid red stem,leaf included. I’ve searched on google to no avail,so I figured I’d come here as a last resort haha. submitted by ProduceSmooth8887 to HelpMeFind [link] [comments] |

2024.05.18 19:19 drake_burroughs Is this the darkest Legion story ever told? We say goodbye to some old friends, hello to the new creative team, and look at Legionnaires 77 - 79 and Legion 121 & 122
The times are dramatically changing and we say goodbye to the longtime creative teams that, believe it or not, crafted this version of the Legion for 6 years. To put this into perspective, Paul Levitz's second run lasted 7 and the 5YL Legion lasted 5. So they're one of the longest runs in Legion history. submitted by drake_burroughs to LegionofSuperheroes [link] [comments] I wanted to make a point about the sales on this book to clarify an error I made before. Up to this point, this was the lowest-selling Legion book ever. The only saving moment they had was Final Night, where sales spiked up again because of the book's connection to DC's big crossover. But once that was over, they just went back down again, eventually cratering and heading for cancellation. But, post-threeboot, Legion sales were even worse. Every Legion book follows the same pattern - nice sales for the first issue and then an almost precipitous drop quickly after. However, and this is where I'm going to be a little mean, I think that this version of the Legion is the worst-selling Legion book when compared to the rest of the comic industry at the time. I think that Legion v7 selling 15,000 copies a few years ago is much worse than Legion v4 selling 17,000 in 1999. Let's talk about the high points of this run:
Let's continue the reread: Legionnaires #77 The entire Legion heads to the beach for sun, sand, romance, and to catch a thief... kinda... These are the kinds of issues that this creative team has shown they do well so I'm expecting it to be fun. I've said before that I love it when the Legion is hanging out and just being friends. Let's focus on the important parts of the story:
It's also the final issue for the writing team and I think Tom McCraw, Roger Stern, and Carmela Merlo really leaned into what they did the best. It's a nice way to wrap up their run. LSH #121 In a complete change of tone, we're back with the Fatal Five (four?) story. Let's go random stream of consciousness while I read... We start with a desolate planet called Tenazor and a huge ship crash lands into the surface. Is this the Fatal Five? Someone else? Oh, and I have to say I love the Walt Simonson sound effects they use here - not sure if they paid him for the style and look but they should. Half the team is flying back to the Outpost (although at this point I'm honestly not sure who's assigned where, but that might just be my bad memory... or I'm wondering why the lightning twins aren't here) when their beach memories are interrupted by Brainiac 5, who's nice enough to recap last issue. He tells them they warped the whole Outpost through a stargate and they crashed on the planet from the first page... even though the ship that crashed didn't look big enough to be the Outpost. Umbra and M'onel have already arrived at Tenazor and, since it's under an orange sun, the Daxamite is only at half strength. Which is perfect when going against the Fatal Five. The villains have already started turning the locals into slave labor, because they have to make the villains even more villainous, right? M'onel tries to fight everyone by himself, uses absolutely no strategy aside from attack, and gets blasted by the Emerald Eye. I will repeat what I said last issue - does any Legionnaire actually think before they rush into battle? He and Umbra are quickly defeated before the rest of the Legion arrives, including Gates and Brainy. We get a nice moment between Kinetix and Violet, as the latter worries about facing the Eye again and Kinetix reassures her that she's afraid because she hated the evil that she did. They hug and I, once again, wish they did more with Zoe. Brainy comes up with the incredible plan of while the Legion is fighting the Fatal Five, he'll sneak in and regain control of the Outpost. Yep, that's it. No need to consider strategy, or the best members for attacking the different foes, or how Ferro is going to accomplish anything... Subplot: Dreamer has, of course, a bad dream about something ending too soon for the Legion. We all know it's this series (only 4 issues to go), but wouldn't it be great to do a subplot with Dreamer where she wakes up, surprised by a good dream? The battle starts and Karate Kid takes down the Empress (who I guess isn't tied to the Eye at all) with one move. Wow - they could've actually written a compelling fight scene and let the two of them go but, instead, just let Val defeat this killer with one move. Kind of a waste, if you ask me. As the fight continues, and the Legion actually uses teamwork to go against the Persuader, we get a very strange scene with Gates single-handedly teleporting the Eye away. He also gets to throw in some nice socialist dogma while he's doing it, just in case there was anyone who wasn't sure what his political beliefs are. Just kinda overkill right now... Element Lad and Kinetix try to change the Emerald Eye into something less threatening, Sensor makes Validus think his lightning is going against him so that Violet and Ferro can knock him unconscious. (That's something I never thought I'd see in a Legion comic). And then Koko takes off to save a green monkey. Yes, you read that correct. We're interrupting the action to focus on Koko saving another monkey. Brainy distracts Tharok, allowing Dyrk to cut the power to the Outpost and end the threat. He blasts the villain with a force field (just going to say now that I really liked that they added this to his arsenal - using the force field as an aggressive weapon was a great add to the character). Element Lad creates a magnesium flare and blinds the Emerald Eye. Another thing I didn't think I'd see in a Legion comic. We wrap everything up very quickly, as the villains are captured, M'onel flies the Outpost back into space, and Brainy leaves Koko on the planet so the white monkey can bond with the green monkeys. The Legion wonders what harm Koko can do, but we see that he's already leading the monkeys with a Legion wristband on him. That's not going to go well, is it? I actually kinda liked this one, if only for the massive amount of teamwork used. They probably didn't need to reform the Fatal Five for this, and they defeated them really, really easily, but the Legion worked as a team, so that was okay for me. Or maybe I'm just in a better mood today... The more I think about it, the more I feel like the creative team used the Fatal Five for no other reason than they knew this was their last chance. It's their final issue and I think they wanted to go out with a bang, using the best villains in the Legion arsenal. I now kinda wish they had scrapped a lot of the previous issues and done something a little more epic. But that's been a constant complaint for the McCraw/Peyer team - they just never knew how to actually lay out a storyline. Legionnaires #78 Here we have it - the first regular Legion title written by Dan Abnett & Andy Lanning (Or DnA). Oh, and a barely remembered artist named Olivier Coipel shows up for the final two pages as well. Let's see how they handle these characters... One of my favorite things to notice during rereads is how well the new creative teams introduce new concepts and ideas and how well they keep characterizations consistent. In some cases, the teams slow build, adding things here and there and try their best not to completely recreate the book. In other cases, they immediately start throwing their new ideas in. Rereading this book, there are a couple of elements that are almost immediately evident:
And finally, the last two pages start the destruction, as stargates are destroyed and whole systems are wiped out. Death and destruction are coming and heading towards Earth... LSH #122 Legion of the Damned, Part One After reading this book, I spent some time trying to think of comic series that underwent dramatic, intense changes in both style and level of quality. I mentioned this before, but I always find it interesting when series get new creative teams and go in dramatically different directions. I like to see what big and small changes they make. For this series, the change is incredibly dramatic. The only comparable book I can think of is when Grant Morrison and Richard Case took over Doom Patrol. It went from a fairly standard, somewhat uninteresting superhero book to a trip through Morrison's crazed vision of a broken bunch of heroes. The book was immediately 10000 times better and eventually joined the Vertigo universe to allow Morrison to push the envelope even further. I can't imagine what it must have been like at the end of 1999, after spending years reading the Archie Legion, to suddenly have everything shift to such a degree. DnA have taken everyone's fears of Y2K and turned them into the Blight, an evil alien consciousness that has taken over the Earth, destroyed everything (including Interlac, which is no longer on display), and taken possession of the Legionnaires, turning them into slaves. At the heart the of Metropolis is The Stem, the huge organism from which the Blight conjure energy ribbons for transportation. It's also believed to be part of the network that brought the Blight to Earth. There are almost no beings left on Earth, just the Blight. The scared few who are free are trying to escape by getting resistance leader R.J. Brande to use the last remaining stargate to help them get off planet. And leading them are Live Wire, XS, Chameleon, and Shvaughn Erin. But they face the possessed versions of Umbra, Ultra Boy, and Karate Kid and, except for Cham, fall under the Blight's control. Cham's lost, desperate, trying to find help, when the four Legionnaires from last issue (Cosmic Boy, Apparition, Monstress, and Brainiac 5) finally return to Earth with no clue of what's happened. Wow, we just got really, really, really dark. Legionnaires #79 Legion of the Damned, Part Two DnA and Olivier Coipel continue this story, so I'm going to assume that this whole series was done months earlier to ensure they could hit this bi-weekly schedule. In that case, the previous creative teams had to know that their run was over far sooner than I guessed before. We start this issue with Cham explaining to the four what happened and just how quickly the Blight took over the Earth and their former teammates. His big reveal, of course, is that everyone was taken to The Stem. To further stress the darkness of the story, we see inside The Stem and see XS's fate. She's been taken prisoner and is now being processed for power sapping. She's trapped inside a cocoon, breathing some strange liquid, but because of her powers, she cannot be kept unconscious. So she's aware of the horror around her. She's heading towards the end and knows she's about to lose everything. Then we get a flashback to when the four finally reached the Legion Outpost. Tinya is being her usual annoying self, whining about not getting to see Jo. Monstress is trying to keep positive but Brainy is tired of her tantrums. It's moments like these when you remember that Tinya's around 16 years old... and married... and emotionally immature. Last issue's change is already tossed to show that she sometimes is going to act like a little kid. As the four board the Outpost, they immediately realize that it's empty, hasn't been used in a while, and something very bad is happening. The Blight recognize they're onboard and blow up the Outpost just as they get away. But the blast destroys their ship and they crash on Earth. I guess the Blight brought the Outpost to Earth at some point, right? Tinya wakes up from that nightmare (strange that she's super annoying in her own dream) and chats with Cham about how they need to get into The Stem to try to figure out what's actually going on. Within The Stem, XS is being taken further into the chamber when she starts communicating with a telepath. She's waking up, her speed powers allowing her to get over the sedative. She sees the remaining Legionnaires hanging from the ceiling, like food, and then decides it's time to escape. She also recognizes the telepath - it's Saturn Girl. She bursts from her cocoon, grabs Saturn Girl, and starts running. Outside The Stem, the five head towards the huge organism, looking for a way to get inside. Brainy spots a opening and explains the science behind how they can get in. I'm just going to point out right now that I really like the way DnA are handling Brainy. He's actually acting super intelligent, and above the rest of the team, and irritating in a stubborn, smug way instead of just being an ass. Inside The Stem, Jenni's too tired to continue and Imra tells her to leave her behind. Then Imra shares what she's seen, what she's learned inside The Stem and XS is stunned. To make matters worse, the Blight have sent all the possessed Legionnaires to destroy those who are free. We'll finish off the Blight next week! Our next Legionnaire in the spotlight... Element Lad!!! https://preview.redd.it/e25sib3pw71d1.jpg?width=928&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c18ee2aa7bc0548880da04f1912d11e2ca6d9e8c https://preview.redd.it/zbqmsccqw71d1.jpg?width=620&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78bc20f3d7e865d8b3ee6b7f5b816e2c1f4043e7 https://preview.redd.it/z00u242cx71d1.jpg?width=1425&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c190f454ede73091c76e94d021ef01de01afbef8 To me, Jan Arrah is the soul of the Legion and the one who made the Legion a family instead of just a team. Having suffered from quite possibly the most horrific origin story of any super-hero ever created, he became the backbone of the team and one of the best leaders ever. Perhaps he, more than almost any other character except for Dream Girl, benefited from being the team leader during the Levitz run and that's what's coloring my judgment here. But I don't think so. I think the strength of the character has been there from very early on and Levitz and Giffen leaned into it, turning him into a must-have Legionnaire. Sadly, post-5YL, he has never been used to his potential and most of the creative teams don't seem to understand his importance.
Next week we get to the end of the longest Legion title to ever exist and see what happens to the characters after that. See you next week! |

2024.05.18 18:27 oddballfactory Take a walk through my garden with me!
Have a community garden plot and we tried a little last year but didn't really do much. This year I'm really trying. Visiting at least 4 hours a week for general maintenance (usually a couple hours after work twice a week) because it's not located at our house. Got things planted early, trying new things (planting red clover as green mulch + nitrogen source for the corn in pic 8), going heavy on the leaf mulch and corn gluten to cut down on weeding, and have a rescue flower garden, aka mostly toss-outs from my job. submitted by oddballfactory to vegetablegardening [link] [comments] Have a stray zucchini in the watermelon bed which I will probably have to transfer (as much as it won't enjoy it), and waiting for sweet potato slips, but looking forward to it! |

I tried everything to help her: replanting her in a bigger pot, new soil, I tried to propagate etc and nothing worked. She was down to one single leaf. I was advised to cut her stem down, replant her and trim her roots. Which I did and she burst back to life! But her stem has not grown at all. Will it grow back?
