Crystal Star Nursery, it's my 4th time ordering from them. It's hard to find hoyas where I'm at and even just in Canada in general and they've got a really great selection. I highly recommend them if you're in Canada.

The plants are always healthy and mostly pest free aside from the occasional fungus gnat. The gnats aren't a big issue for me anymore though since almost anything that isn't a succulent or cactus gets potted into semi-hydro.

**I should mention that I bring up pests because the nursery that's near me is notorious for all kinds of bugs so it's nice when I find one with healthy plants haha.

Not too big honestly, maybe 9"x18"? I recently lost a bunch of plants to thrips so I had the space and some birthday cash :P

Whoops! How silly of me, here you go:

Sign me up for a house-bot. I'm so tired by the time I get home from work that I'd love a robot to do all the chores for me.

Freaking wild! I knew it was coming but damn did it suck to see some of my favourites go up in flames(?). I'm glad Oba was able to reduce the impact and that he lived at least.

They're so pretty! The Cuprea is a stunner 😍

I enjoyed it but I wish I didn't pay full price. The game is very linear and I think I beat it in about 6 hours. Also not a lot of replay value in my opinion.

Well at least she didn't get screwed out of her money. The guy sucks but it seems she came out of the engagement relatively unscathed.

Fuck yeah! I haven't seen the finale yet but this has been a super enjoyable anime. Very glad we'll be getting more of it!

Not hard at all! I got some of those seedling trays that come with the lid that allows for easy bottom watering and basically just watered once every week or two. Kept it under a grow light for 12 hours a day and had a heating pad under it set to 22° C (it was in the basement so I didn't want it getting too cold). Now I just water it once a week and let it do its thing! It seems to really like the bonsai mix.

This will be my struggle in a year or two. I'm planning on moving a couple provinces over so I'll need to come up with a way to move them. Probably end up taking a bunch of cuttings instead.
