Hey, @LnzyHou I just wiped off the vanilla leaves, they don't seem like they are prone to them. However, I do have lousy eyes, so I figured I'd ask you if orchids get spider mites.

Sigh. I keep looking at my window garden, but the skirmishes with the spider mites have escalated into war, and my garden has been flattened. Only a few leaves have been allowed to remain, sprayed down with stuff that will kill my carefully tended microbial colonies, and possibly the sundews and flytraps. Not a single pitcher plant leaf is left, and one had been producing long awaited seed, while the other had a budding flower. Sigh.

Finally took my samples to a dude who was interested in seeing them for a consignment deal, and when he saw the scarf that was Venus flytrap digestive glands, his jaw hit the floor, so that's encouraging. I knew I'd find a target market there. I'm thinking that and flea markets is where my designs will sell. Now I just have to figure out where to get them printed in bulk and work out pricing :).

At least I was lifting something and it's not like the time I threw it out tying my shoe.

Threw my back out grooming the dog. A Pomeranian. I lifted a Pomeranian wrong.
