People in Recovery and Plants! (Part 2)

Show me your favorite plant, your most time invested plant, your plant pride.

It’s hard to see which one I am talking about they are all my pride and joy and this is only a section of them :green_heart: but in the corner of my window pane there is a gigantic pothos who once was just a cutting 8 years ago..within the past 2 years she has been climbing up this window getting glorious leaves at her top all I had to do was change her pot, place her in a window and give her support and she did the rest..like us in recovery. Sometimes a change in environment is all we need to thrive. Can’t wait to see you Plant children, sending good vibes y’all :sparkles:

The last time I repotted this spiny baby I broke the pot. And put it in plastic. Grrr. I’ll rely on gravity to help me. Thanks T, progress pics when I get to it as long as I don’t lose a finger or an eye. :crossed_fingers:t2:

Looks like there’s a baby or two there as well. You can keep them attached but also a chance to get two new plants :eyes:

Sometimes they naturally fall off during a repot too, so you get a new plant whether you want it or not.

Good luck!

I am definitely hoping parts fall off when I repot it. What’s the endgame?

The next pot I buy for it will be ginormous and able to shatter with a hammer.

It lived in my front window for most of the last 2.5 years. Sun can be a bit strong so that’s the cause of the yellowing. The best (and really only) spot for indoor plants is under my kitchen skylight. It’s perfect. I had other plants up there for a long time, and they did very well for a year or so, but I did a lot of stir-frying back then and even with the vent they got caked in cooking oil over time. Just kinda left ‘em. I sure as heck wasn’t gonna get up there and move them every day to cook.

Pretty much everything I cook these days is roasted, so airborne oil is no longer a factor.
