Cut off the flower stalks but don’t chuck them. They are your best hope. There appears to be a little keiki (orchid plantlet) on one of the stalks and you should try and get it to grow roots as it is your best hope for the orchid to live.

someone has been trying and it looks like it has potential if it keeps on being developed: https://github.com/Fancy-Mumble/FancyMumble

Glad to be helpful :)

Bananas do and will loose their bottom leaves as they grow, so no surprises there.

As you probably know the black flaky stuff on the outside is normal sap, not mildew. As far as u can see there is only mildew present where the frond meats the trunk.

As there is only a small amount of mildew and no signs of rot I don’t think the mildew caused the leaf falling off (rather just natural growth). If it gets more chronic mildew it may cause issues in the future. We grow our bannanas outside and powdery mildew between old fronds is a given, and not a concern, however indoor plants are a lot more prone to disease so it may be a worry.

P.s. its not powdery mildew (mildew is white/grey). Its probably just some kinda mold that settled in the crack left by the leaf falling off. I would only be concerned if it is present between young fronds or starts rotting the trunk.

At first I thought: ooooh! I wanna learn go and raylib. So I looked at the repo, then realised I know basically nothing. I’ll have another look tomorrow, to try again and hopefully learn a bit more. However I think I’m a long way away from being able to contribute anything, but would like to contribute some day. Good luck though!

Eyes can sometimes be less deiceving than marketing material.

my auntie, who has one many awards with her rare orchids, still cant figure out some jewel orchids. My own baby jewel orchid was looking beautiful before it got demolished by spidermites (at the time I thought they were just spiders until it was to late). Next time I’m going to try grow them in a bioactive terrarium hopefully they will be happier.

I’d love to see how your setup turns out and what plants you choose to plant, please post an update when you get them.

Is the LED light a grow light? If not that’s fine, most normal white LEDs are just as good or often better than cheap grow lights so don’t bother switch.

Its really hard to tell from a photo how bright the light is, but my guess is its medium indirect light, high indirect is still really bright.

I would recommend a maidenhair fern, their leaves look amazing, especially with light shining through and they can handle pretty much any level of indirect light.

Another recommendation would be a hoya, there are lots of varietys some have flashy leaves, and they are easy to look after.

Then if you want a challenge: jewel orchids; these orchids have beautiful iridescent leaves and tend to like high humidity, and low to medium indirect light, unfortunately they are an absolute pain to grow.

I also love mounted elkhorn ferns if you want a splash of weird. Very easy to care for.

I have had surprisingly good results with succulents in low light conditions, they grow very slow but seem to usually do fine.

Trying now, thank you!

True I did indead I even forgot I downloaded it as it was unopened. It does look fun though, will give it a try.

On a similar note I also forgot Feudal tactics, which looks even worse then unciv. but it is still a fun strategy game. I’ll add these both to the list, thank you,

I mean if you chose a bamboo variety that loves it outside but hates it inside then it will be a big challenge to keep them alive inside (most bamboos you see growing outside won’t like it inside)

My Earina Autumnalis orchid flowered I have also got lots of other plants Im proud of, but I’m away from home so this is the only photo I’ve got.

Your terrarium is looking beautiful! I’m planning on making a large cooled terrarium for alpine plants sometime. All my current tereriums are small so it will be quite a challenge.

I really don’t understand the allure of Kiss launcher, but I guess its not for me.

I’m trying out heliboard since everyone is recommending it. It does seem very good. Might be my new main keyboard.

And I will definitely try out antenna pod as you give it so much praise

Thanks for your recommendations, also btw your auxio link links to aves instead of auxio

Thanks, I’m trying out NewPipe right now but haven’t quit got the hang of it, though Im not giving up yet, I just don’t feel I can rank it yet.

Also i agree those Fossify apps are great that’s why I included the Fossify suite in A tier. I realise now that maybe they arent all A tier so Here’s my ranking of Fossify apps that fits in with the prior ranking:

Low S tier: Contacts, phone, SMS messenger

A tier: Gallary, file manager, Calendar, Clock, calculator

B tier: paint, voice recorder, keyboard, camera, launcher

Haven’t used enough to rank: notes - no sync and no markdown :( Music player - just haven’t used it much
