Houseplant hacks: can white vinegar or lemon juice clean leaves?
By Gynelle Leon

Dust and hard water can leave deposits that slow photosynthesis, but don’t believe everything you read about using acids to remove them

Bonjour Masto :blob_wolf_hug_moon:
J'ai des questions pour les amoureux des plantes d'intérieur :
1. Avez-vous une application pour gérer l'arrosage de vos plantes ? :shibathinking:
2. J'ai une plante araignée qui ne se porte pas très bien, issue de plusieurs boutures, il ne m'en reste que deux. Avez-vous des conseils pour en prendre soin ? :shibathinking:
Merci pour vos retours :blob_wolf_hug_moon:

Been a while. Lets do a new #introduction post.

I'm Erika, a Canadian with a cat, a husband, and my first baby on the way (due in October). :queercat_autism: :queercat_enby: :queercat_ace: :QueerCat_Bisexual:

2026 has been a year of big changes for me. I lost someone close to me, been #Pregnant every day of the year so far, started a new job, and will be moving into my new home in the next month or two. I'm looking forward to re-watching Twin Peeks with my husband in the newborn sleep-deprived trenches.

Hobbies at the top of my mind right now are writing to #PenPals, #Reading, #Journaling, #Knitting, and figuring out my ideal use of #ObsidianMD. I also enjoy all sorts of #Crafting such as #Crochet, #CrossStitch, #SlowStitching, #Mending, #NeedleFelting, and #BookBinding. I do a lot of the #Cooking and #Baking in my home since I don't have a commute outside of my cat tripping me on my way to and from my office. Other things I spend my time on include #TarotReading, #FountainPens, #DnD, #SoloRPG, #HousePlants, #CozyGames. I'm really looking forward to getting back to #WeightLifiting and my usual #Yoga.

I'm still a #Salesforce consultant, focused on not-for-profits. And, of course, I like ants.

CW: Introduction post with lots of hashtags

New server, new #Introduction, I guess

I'm an #ActuallyAutistic #Queer person in #Edinburgh, #Scotland. I usually post about my interests or random thoughts in my head. I also often complain about technology around me. I also like to read about sustainability. Trying to keep my #HousePlants alive.

What you should know is I'm lactose intolerant. So please keep dairy away from my feed, haha.

I like watching #SciFi ( #StarTrek, #StarGate, #DoctorWho, and others), but I also like #MurderMystery. If you don't want to be murdered, don't go to Cabot Cove ( #MurderSheWrote). Occasionally I watch some #musical.

I try to get better at Go ( #weiqi, #baduk)

For games I usually play on my #NintendoSwitch (casual gamer - #MarioKart, #AnimalCrossing, #MarioParty, main series of #Mario, #Splatoon, #WarioGames, and more) and #BoardGames (a casual fan - I genuinely enjoy playing #Cluedo and #Munchkin. I also enjoy #Fluxx, #GiveMeTheBrain, #Scrabble, #TheSettlersOfCatan, Pandemic (that hashtag would be confusing), #ExplodingKittens, #Dixit, and more)

#TheHobbit is still my favourite book, but I also like #MissMarple, #Poirot, and #SherlockHolmes. #TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy series is great. So is #Discworld by #TerryPratchett. Enjoyed #EarthSea series.

I like to drink #Tea, especially #GreenTea. Enjoy animated shows like #Daria, #Amphibia, #TheOwlHouse, #ScoobyDoo, #GravityFalls, #BobsBurgers, #SpyXFamily, #InvaderZim, #DuckTales, #AvatarTheLastAirbender, old #TheSimpsons, #SpongeBob, and others

Occasionally watch some #KDrama

Fan of #sriracha

For geeks:
Second hand #ThinkPad user running #FreeBSD with #XFCE. Web browsing in #Librewolf and #links2. #Tabs over #Spaces and I use nano.
