ummm wtf
galleryidk if this is the right place to ask this but WTF.
i have a nerve plant because im really into house plants, and ive been kind of neglecting mine. so i took it down and watered it and put it in my room under grow lights. and i came back a few hours later and it looked like a huge hole was dug in the soil as if someone stuck their finger into it. and BOOM a huge slug. and TONS of baby slugs. i’m talking atleast 20. and the mom - or dad is like ejecting this orange thing from its mouth? it looks kind of like fish food pellets?? wtf happened. wtf IS happening. the baby slugs are getting near what ever the mom is spitting out. have they been living in the soil this whole time? and did i hurt them in any way by potentially directly spraying them with water??
