Hello all! Slowly but surely I’m getting this darn cage done. Had a small setback but I’m back at it! I was curious... how many branches (roughly) should be in my cage? Its a 2x2x4 cage with 6 plants in it. I was thinking 3 vertical ones at various height, 3 diagonal ones connecting the top and...
the well water has a pH rating ranging from 7.4-8.0. Average is 7.7! Can also post the results from my city’s website about all of the amount of material in the water too. Lots of people use it as their main source of water
Hello once again! Just getting around to setting up my timers/hydration stuff. So far ive done the testing (seeing if it works, any problems, etc.) with distilled water, but buying it over and over and over seems pretty stupid. I was wondering if well water would be okay to use? Saves me a ton...
Hello everyone! I’m having a hard time figuring out where I should place my spider plant, any suggestions?
the first photo is my current enclosure, I do have two center piece plants (a tall schefflera and a medium sized dracena marginata)
the last photo is the spider plant that i have no idea...
Okay! So, so far I have a wandering jew twoards the upper-back-left of the cage, and another (more fuller) one in the middle-middle-left of the cage. On the lower-front-left, I have a small Scheflerra arbor-whatever the heck. And, on the upper-front/middle-left of the cage I have a golden...
Sorry about the mess. But i installed a wire shelf 4 & 5/8ths inches above the top of the cage and have my 8.5 inch heat lamp as well as T5HO 24 inch fixture resting on it.
OHHHHHHHHH OKAY im so sorry that took me so long to understand!! Thank you for being patient. I actually got a decent sized spider plant as well as a ~2,5 foot tall schefflera. I will post pictures when I am over there again! Need to repot 4 plants and find a spot for 3 of them to hang.
Yes, the basking branch is now 9.7 inches below the bottom of the uvb fixture! Like its sitting on a wire shelf and from the bottom of the fixture to the branch is 9.7 inches. Or are you talking about incorporating their height as well? So like if a Chameleon is 4 inches tall, their basking...
Thanks a bunch!! I will drop it another inch, and when I get one I will continue to lower it as they grow. I cant beleive I didnt think about their height!
Thank you! My basking branch is ~9 inches from the wire shelving where my uvb fixture is, but i can always attatch it from the underside of the branches as well! The heat fixture will be in the back right so im straying away from putting plants there, unless of course I find one that can...
Of course. Right now I have a dual sunblaze whatever the heck light fixture with two 6500k bulbs in it, as well as one single reflector fixture with a 6% arcadia uvb bulb in it. Both are two feet long-
Unfortunately fitting all 3 of my lights up on the wire rack in the position I want isn’t...
Ever so slowly I am getting all of the branches put together... the blue tape in the back is the general level of where the basking branch will be! Still have to make the drainage system as well as setting up the mister, fogger, and the timers. I dont think the 100w bulb I have in my heat...
