Kind of what I was thinking but figured I'd poll the peanut gallery first. Who knows, maybe there's an agave expert here.

Yeah but I have to bring it back inside eventually. Plus I've cats who don't need the temptation

Love all the questions!

Outside since April-ish and was light color at the end of the season last year. Went out at the same time then too.

Fertilizer never.

Repotted two years ago when we moved it outside.

Outside, it gets water when it rains or has been dry for an exceptionally long time. I've never seen it look thirsty. Inside, it gets watered when the probe says it is pretty dry 4+ inches deep.

Thanks, I think! We don't know what it is and it has never bloomed. It doesn't have much in the form of needles 🤷

Agave eggersiana growing outside in Missouri, USA. When night time temps are below 60f/15c I take it inside. Last year while outside it turned this light green that I don't think seems very healthy and I was hoping it'd improve this summer but it hasn't. Maybe I need to add nitrogen to the soil? Pot drains well.

[Self Promotion] MinPin - Minimal IPFS Pinning, No Fluff (minpin.me)

This community is pretty dead and the sidebar sparse so I'm going out on a limb and assuming this will be OK.

I made https://minpin.me/ recently because I've got some spare server capacity and have been thinking about ways to monetize it. Hosting crypto stuff like storj or filecoin seems like it would be too slow or not pay enough but with IPFS I can keep critical data online for people who need it and make slightly more money. If I get 1000 people paying $5/month to store 250GiB of data then maybe I can hit my self-employment number, stop working for the man, and start working for myself. It'll only take ....does math.... about 245TiB of storage. Yikes. That's not counting redundancy at the hardware storage level or redundancy at the IPFS daemon level.

Happy to answer questions or talk more about the project if anyone is interested. I've been dying to tell anyone about this project, even if I'm posting into the void here.

This is what I see every morning where I head to work (all three directly outside my front door) in c/dull_mens_club@lemmy.world
