Think I might make these bloomer posts a weekly thing again. Do you guys think that’s a good idea or would that be annoying? I just think it’s a nice thing to have a place where people can share good vibes, considering how there is quite a lot of terrible shit going on at the moment I think people should have a place to get a break from that.

      Thank you! It’s my first boston fern and for some reason it seems to be thriving.

      Bob lore:

      Bob The Fern

      I got this fern as a baby plant in 2024 and put it in an underwatering pot. It really seems to thrive in it. First I did all the pebble trays and stuff for moisture, but soon gave that up, because he clearly doesn’t need it. I never mist my plants, but they do have grow lights.

      Bob got so big that I had to split him last spring so he became four Bobs. I call the offsping the sons of Bob. Two of them now live with my family members and one I kept outside all summer and it’s almost as big as Bob now that I took it indoors again. So the picture is OG Bob today and he is getting huge again, I’ll have to split him again next spring.

      Here’s Bob last spring before his surgery:
