You can test your "flushable" wipes. Put them in a jar with water, shake for 30 seconds. Do the same with toilet paper. Wait 5 minutes. If your wipes aren't as broken down as the toilet paper, they will cause problems in your pipes.

This is the good, standard advice that will do no harm.

Also, some plants have specific pruning strategies, so if you want to do the for-sure right thing, the first step is identifying your plant

That's what I thought on first look too, but it is a little wrong. The leaves are in sets of 5 and the flower shape is a little off too. Is this just a variety that I don't know?

Edit: I think it is a chaste tree. The genus is Vitex, no clue on species or variety.

Not quite. No apostrophe usually means plural. With apostrophe means possessive or a contraction (what is to what's). Its/it's is an edge case where the possessive "its" has no apostrophe and contraction "it's" does.

All that being said, native speakers mistype all of these all of the time, so you don't have to worry about it for casual conversation.

Weird. I only drink black and this has never happened to me. Not sure why you're getting the short end of the stick

People are hearing this as defense of a crappy system rather than the strategic idea that it is.

Yes this sucks, and everyone hates it who has applied to a job i n the last decade. Form duplication is just part of a huge problem with how hiring is done.

Even if you hate it, you can game the system using this info. Make your resume for humans the highlight reel and the form version a deep dive. They don't have to be the same.

The advice from the comment above that you're missing because you don't like the system is how to cope if you're looking for a job right now. Be angry at the stupidity of it, but use the tools provided you if you want a better chance at getting in the door.

That fruit looks great for a tropical plant growing way up north!

The issue is not the sand. Top dressing with sand, mulch, rocks, etc is a common practice with potted plants that at worst does no harm.

My guess is over watering is getting to it. Try just thoroughly soaking it (as in watering until some starts coming out the bottom of the pot) ~ once a week. The idea is to let the soil dry out a little between waterings. You can always stick your finger into the soil to see if it is still damp to see if watering is needed.

I absolutely want double basil and you're doing awesome stuff. I will watch for more. What kind of turn around can you get on generations with your set up?

Having said that (and knowing plat breeding is older than civilization), my first reaction was - this sounds like the log book found in a post-apocalyptic world.
