I noticed tonight I have an AV with a bloom. First time I have had one bloom in the green house, and this is one I found on sale at Home Depot. I was quite happy about it.. I’ll probably let it bloom and document what type it is, then debloom it so it can concentrate on its foliage instead.. it’s still a lopsided, sick little thing.
The philodendron didn’t look too good trying to root in the water, in fact I think it was starting to rot. So I did a texas watering system on one pot, where I fill it half with perlite and a layer of vermiculite to fill the rest of it up, and set it in a dish of water, about a half inch high. And I put both starts in it, and we will see.. this system seems to work better than just plain water, it must be from the cooler temps.

Interesting trick! I’ve had success with pothos propigation in water, and one thing that helps is using a dark colored glass, like a rootbeer bottle, to discourage algae growth.

I just got my own USB rocket launcher
Awsome thing.
Plug into your computer and you got a remote controlled office missile launcher with 360 degrees horizontal and 45 degree vertival rotation with a range of more than 6 meters – which gives you a coverage of 113 square meters round your workplace.

I’ve got an Amazon gift certificate burning holes in my pocket,
and I want to get the most bang for my buck.
Enter the Secret Amazon Web Pages:

This is where you’re going to find the “latest sales, rebates, and limited-time offers” from
Amazon, and you can score some pretty deep discounts if you’re a savvy shopper.
Next, there’s the special Sale link. This is open every Friday, and ONLY on Fridays.
You can find the same good discounts here as you would in hidden Deals, although some
Fridays you can really get lucky and make off like an Amazon bandit – I’ve seen discounts
there as low as 75% off sticker price.
