My Other Plants

Hello Everyone,

Today I pulled a stoner move and smoked some weed around photoshoot time. I passed out for a couple of hours and when I woke up it was lights out...

So I decided that today I'll share some photographs from the other tent in the grow room.

---

I have quite a variety in this tent of different types of plants.

I have at least four or five different types of tradescantias (wandering jews) and I find them to be quite pretty and easy to maintain. Some of the varieties are a little touchy but they do alright in these tent environments.

---

I have some bamboo up front that is pretty happy but I think it would appreciate a bigger pot in the near future.

---

Here we can see more tradescantias, and if you look closely you'll see they get a little crispy around the edges. This I think is more of a humidity issue causing this than anything else.. They like it humid and they are also a little touchy with their watering schedules. I do my best and at different times of the year they do better than other times.

---

Perhaps we have noticed the commanding dominant presence of the aloes? Yes they are the kings of this tent and the most consideration goes to them. Fortunately they really seem to love the environment that naturally occurs in these grow tents. I really don't have to do anything extra to accommodate them, and that makes my life much easier. They love consistent bright light and will go into massive rapid rate growth under twenty four hours of light. I will stimulate them at different times to produce pups for me. Right now all of these plants are under eighteen hours of light daily and they like it.

Over here we see a lovely pothos clone. The pothos does really well in the tents too.

Beside the pothos is a bamboo clone, purple tradescantias, string of hearts (woodii ceropegia), and some Graptopetalum Sedums which I will talk more about shortly...

But first let's look more at these string of hearts in 3D printed pots.

---

---

The string of hearts are really pretty and they grow like weeds. They are relatively easy to clone but not super easy. I would rate them a medium difficulty for cloning.

---

The Graptopetalum Sedums I've been growing for about four years now. It's been a tricky succulent and at one point I almost lost it entirely, depending on a single petal to repopulate. Luck would have it that the single petal produced a small budding and I still have this succulent around today as a result.

I've learned recently that they like a bigger pot size than I've been giving them all of these years.

---

And this is the proof of that... These Graptopetalum Sedums are the biggest I've grown yet and they are all quite happy.

I grew them in this tub with string of hearts, which has completely taken over the tub. I am not even sure how they have shared root space so graciously but the Graptopetalum Sedums don't seem to be much affected by the ridiculously strong string of hearts.

---

I might run a cloning project with these string of hearts soon with the intention of distributing them. I'm not sure how high of a demand there is for this particular succulent, but I certainly have quite the specimen of them going on in this box. I could probably create fifty clones with barely putting a dent in the amount of vine that is growing there.

---

The Graptopetalum Sedums are really a sight to behold. They change colors at different times of the year. Sometimes they blush to a red/orange, and sometimes they are more green, and sometimes they are green and purplish. When they are happy they adjust their shades on their own without much influence from the grower. Placing closer to lights will induce more blushing but they blush naturally at different times as long as they have ample light.

---

That aloe in the back is the oldest in this tent, and is the mother of all of the other aloes. She produced pups, which grew into bigger aloes, which produced pups themselves. I've given away more aloes than I can accurately remember at this point, and I also eat aloe as a natural medicine.

---

Right now we can see one of the aloes is producing pups. This is actually her third round of pups, which generally seems to be consistent with these big aloes with how many rounds they like to produce back to back. After this round I think she'll probably stop producing pups unless I re-stimulate her.

That will do it for this walkthrough of my other tent.

Do you guys and ladies like these plants?

Would you eat some aloe too?

Let me know in the comments!

Thank you for stopping by!

Have a good day! -@futuremind
