    Easy plants

    Yes! I have it! My only issue is since it’s a “mix” all of the seeds are mixed together. I wish they were separated so I could take care of them better! It’s hard to plant them indoors because of the fact that they’re all mixed together, but I have done it :)

    Hermann’s temperature

    Hi everyone! I have a hermann’s tortoise and am relatively new to everything. I decided to move her outside this summer onto my screened in porch. She’s in a baby pool with substrate and a basking light. The weather where I am has been reaching 85°-90°. Is that too hot? Should I be bringing her...
