@DreamerZ: I heard it’s rough. I’ve never done online dating. I did meet someone online and we started dating a few months in but it wasn’t through an app. ^^; that was 12 years ago though. I’ve been married (to a different person) since 2013.
My sister has done online dating and some of the people are like yikes lol

@CooperationIsKey: thanks for posting photos! I love seeing other people’s plants. How long have you had your plants?

@DreamerZ: That's exactly what it's been like for her. I feel bad because she is nice, caring, hard working, and pretty. But it's hard to find someone. I got lucky. I met my husband in college. ^^

@Totalanimefan: Yeah dang, that's super helpful, and yeah lol that's why I would buy one just for my plant's XD Yeah, I'm sure once winter has passed the plants will be happier. Yeah, I love jade plants, it is my third one now lol I got it from a local store in town! No jade plants aren't safe for pets, so I would not recommend them if you can't keep them away from your pets. I have a small dog (a Maltipoo) so I'm very careful and keep them where she can't reach them!

@Hobgoblin: I have 5 plants and I'm thinking about getting a second one. Of course you can clean it and put it in other pots, but maybe having two at once would be good? I'm not sure. I'm also thinking about looking into the self watering nodes.
I feel like I'm just trying to keep them alive atm lol. I am seeing some new growth on some of my plants, but also sometimes the new growth it dying? That happened on my watermelon peperomia. So idk? Could just be stress cause they are new? I've had them about two weeks but maybe that happened in the first week?
Darn that means I can't get a jade plant! And they are really pretty! My cat was leaving my plants alone but now that I'm paying more attention to them I think he's jelly and he sometimes runs past them or bites them to get my attention. If I only had a dog I would be ok because I could hand them or put them on a table. My cat could get at both of those things.

@DreamerZ: It's ok. I like my sister and don't mind taking about her.
She and her BF just spilt up. They had been dating for a year but decided they weren't right for each other. She is taking it well since it was mutual. But now she has to move out and she found a place. The move is in 2 weeks I think she said?

Lucky, are other babies are doing well and are healthy.

@Qiqi Agatha: thank you! I try! They don’t look as nice as the people that know what they are doing lol
Oh no I’m sorry that happened. Has it recovered? You can post pictures here if you want.

@DreamerZ: thanks. I also gave her some money for her move to help out.

@Totalanimefan: Oh, nice your collection is growing! (don't mind the unintentional pun) Yeah, I think having more the one would be nice just so you have that option, and yeah there is a couple of self-watering tools out there. Hey keeping what you have alive now is good. Oh yeah, new growth that's exciting! I had something similar happen to one of my plants (and I have no clue what kind of plant it is tbh) its has some new growth but also had some newer growth die. Stress can definitely be it! Give it some time I suppose?

Yeah dang, that's too bad cause yeah there so pretty, but it's better to aim at the cautious side. Lol that is kinda adorable, I love cats; but yeah not good for either of them having him bite them XD

@DreamerZ: Thanks ^^
@Hobgoblin: Thanks. I think I'm good with 5 atm, but I'm sure in the future I'm going to want more plants. Winter makes it hard to know what I'm doing right and what I'm doing wrong. I'll see new growth on the pray plants, but also I see that the ends are brown and crispy and I don't know what to do about it, I have a humidifier. Haha
I hope your plant will continue to grow. I wonder what they will be like in the spring. :)
Yeah my cat is too much of a lovable butthole for me to have non-pet safe plants.

@Totalanimefan: Yeah, that's a good amount to start with for sure! I was the same started with only a couple and now well πŸ˜… Yeah winter can be a pain, but it will pass soon, and you will know and learn more. Yeah, brown tips can be frustrating! It is usually a simple or easy fix though. Sometimes it's just something you got to live with, especially if the plant overall is healthy and happy. Thank you! I'll have to take a photo of it now and an updated photo later! LMAO yeah, better stick with the safe plants.

@DreamerZ: I try to keep it warm enough for them. My prayer plants have two new leaves. I posted a pic on Twitter. Here it is https://twitter.com/hannahfoll/status/1483563677156614149?s=21

@Hobgoblin: yeah true. They don’t have to look perfect as long as they are happy but also how will I know lol
My cat was walking through the plants today just to get my attention while I was busy. I hate that he learned to do that recently. It’s been colder than average here. I can’t wait to see your pics!
