Hello! The biggest piece of advice I have is to forget about them until they have roots. It feels wrong and it might be as much as a month. Maybe more. But let them grow roots on a dry medium of some sort before you plant them.
Love your username. I just finished the almost the whole Sanderson library! Everything in the Cosmere, skyward and a few others. It was a long year hahah.
Well, a little good news! While I'm no expert, I have at least some of everything you posted and they're all pretty healthy. I might actually be able to help.
I do mean drains at the bottom of the pot, but also that the soil itself lets water through it. Think of sponges that hold different amounts of water when you squeeze them. Your cactus wants sandy soil so it won't hold much water. Your ivy is less picky but probably wants a peatier soil to keep some moisture around the roots.
Let me know species you have and I'll try to keep helping. Bonsai trees are tricky assholes and I have a love-hate relationship with mine.
Oh, and the moldy (Hello from across the pond!) succulents are a common problem. Let them dry out ALL. THE. WAY. between waterings. The soil should be crumbly. If the leaves just barely start to wrinkle, that's alright as long as you get to them soon thereafter. You can seriously let them go weeks between waterings sometimes. Check out some of my other posts for some of my succulents that are doing well.
I think it'll take a little while but we'll find our niches. I'm finding a few magazines on kbin.social to be really active in and I also got on mastodon.social. I don't think the latter is for me. I need to figure out a little better how federation works then I'm gonna explore more.
It sounds like you're describing etiolation, when the plant stretches out for light. I took this plant from a friend and it was pretty stretched when I got it which led to the beheading. In the picture I (hopefully, new here) included, you can see the before photo. If that's what you're seeing, it needs significantly more light. Try to find a south-facing window in your home or adding a grow light.
Succulents are billed as simple, low maintenance plants and often they aren’t. They require a ton of light compared to many other indoor plants. I was pretty surprised to find that out when I did. Now my hobby has turned to an obsession 😂
It’s about ten feet with a loop on one end and the frill on the other. It’s just some PCord she stole from me when I visited years ago. Had it to tie some stuff up and found out quickly it wasn’t mine anymore 😂

Wow. This looks like a lot of fun! Hopefully it’s open world and not “open world” like Jedi Survivor. I enjoyed that game but I like the idea of GTA Tatooine.
A certain stage of development has ended - a prototype was created that allowed me to verify whether such a form makes sense in the #fediverse. Until now, it was a project that I developed in my free time. Now, thanks to the great people from Nlnet, I will be able to devote much more time to it. This time, we have already...
One more reddit refugee here. Thanks for all your work so far and your devotion to the project. Growing pains are normal, especially when you're asked to ramp up this fast. Keep up the good work. We'll be patient!

Did you reuse your Reddit name or create a new one?
I originally went with the same name but have been using this one now since it's new and the idea of starting fresh appeals to me....
OC I beheaded this fellow because it was etiolated. Apparently it's a hydra!
OC I'm not actually sure what these little dudes are yet but I'll find out someday. Everything else in background is propped too!

OC This is Cleo. She missed her calling as a model but still finds time to practice.
Can anyone recommend any good materials for beginners please? Books, videos, wikis... anything. I really want to learn the basics!
I suck at keeping my plants alive. Help!
I definitely think r/gaming has the biggest banger of a privated notice
OC This is one of the first succulents I started from a cutting. It seems to have taken off!
