Jade leaves never fully plumped since June repot — still underwatering, or something else?

Jade leaves never fully plumped since June repot — still underwatering, or something else?

Big old jade, around 50 inches, indoors under a 100W SANSI. 12” terracotta, pumice-heavy mix. Repotted June.

Since then the leaves have never fully filled out. Some look fine, others stay wrinkled. never all plump at the same time.

I switched to bottom watering after realizing top water was just running straight through the coarse mix. She takes about half a gallon now. But I don’t want to push further and rot her.

Also seeing aerial roots on the stems, and a few new buds coming in.

Is this just slow root recovery two months out, or am I still not getting enough water in? And do the aerial roots mean anything here?

Anyone growing Boswellia indoors under lights long term?

I'm in TX (zone 8a), so they'd go outside April-November and come in for winter. But I'm wondering whether I could just keep them inside year-round under a strong LED instead for the first 2-3 years.

Starting from seed socotrana, aspleniifolia, and elongata. Goal is upright small trees, not caudex forms.

Has anyone kept them indoors past the seedling stage? Did they stay healthy, or do they need real sun eventually?

Moving a WordPress site to static HTML, how much SEO risk?

I run a small site in a narrow niche. Traffic is decent and the backlinks are real ones, industry publications and a few press mentions, not junk. So I have something to lose here.

The problem is WordPress. I am not a technical person. Roughly 60% of my pages aren’t indexed and when I finally dug into it, it looked like canonical conflicts coming from the theme/plugin setup. Some numbers on my homepage render in JS and Google apparently just sees zeros. Last week my /blog/ URL started redirecting to the homepage and I still cannot figure out why.

Meanwhile I have been building my article pages as plain HTML files and honestly it is easier than fighting the page builder. Inline CSS, no plugins, loads instantly, and I can lay a page out however I want instead of whatever the theme allows.

If I move the whole site to static HTML and keep the exact same URLs, am I risking the rankings and links I already have?

D. Mait encarpment v. D. Lavranii

Other than where they come from, what’s the difference between these? Do they look the same, or is there any visible difference?
