Today I watered one of my plants and it looked like it was smoking. I hate being short. If I was taller I would have been able to see the layer of mold on the soil in the hanging basket before creating a cloud of spores. While I'm waiting to develop superpowers I thought I would do a Whitelist giveaway.

Had the same thing happen to my lemon tree last month. Some of the flowers and small lemons that dropped off were feeding the mold... I'm hoping for superpowers though!

Even if it has been a month those spores need time to work their magic. I wouldn't give up hope:)

I'll have to see if my friends over at Geek Watch One (they do a podcast) know. I'm just not into comics enough to know offhand.

You will either be immortal or dead that's for certain.

At least potato is beating respiratory infection. In real life, nothing has happened so far. Superpowers is looking more and more unlikely.

That's the reason why all of my plants stand on the window sill / floor.

I must admit I don't have much of a green thumb so it is learn as you go. It never even dawned on me that the soil could be too wet in the bag and get moldy even if you just watered like you normally do when you repot.

Eh, one lives and learns, lives and learns.
I killed a cactus once, you know.
It became rotten inside and when I poked it strange bugs started to come out of its lifeless carcass (no mold though).

Other plants were fine.

My point is, there's no rule with plants. Some plants just want to go to plant heaven.
