Euphorbia tirucalli, commonly known as the pencil cactus or milk bush, is a hardy and intriguing plant that can be relatively low-maintenance if you know what it needs. Here’s a quick guide to keeping your pencil cactus healthy and thriving:
Light
- Bright, indirect sunlight: It prefers bright light but can tolerate some direct sun. If grown indoors, place it near a south-facing window.
- Outdoor: If grown outdoors, it thrives in full sun but can also handle partial shade.
Water
- Allow soil to dry out: Water the plant thoroughly, then let the top inch or two of soil dry out before watering again. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
- Reduce watering in the winter months when the plant is in its dormant phase.
Soil
- Well-draining soil: Use a cactus or succulent mix, or create your own by mixing regular potting soil with sand or perlite to ensure good drainage.
Temperature
- Warm temperatures: It thrives in temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C).
Pruning
- Minimal pruning: Prune to shape or control size. Always use gloves and avoid touching your face, as the plant’s milky sap can be an irritant.
Repotting
- Repot when needed: Repot every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Be careful not to disturb the roots too much.
Pests and Problems
- Watch for pests: It can occasionally attract mealybugs or spider mites. Treat infestations with insecticidal soap or neem oil.
- Avoid overwatering: This is the most common issue. Ensure proper drainage and be cautious with watering.
By following these care tips, your Euphorbia tirucalli should remain a striking and healthy addition to your plant collection.

Got it for my college class, it was a required text.
Format: Paperback
Got this book for one my college class, no joke this was a required text. But overall it was an okay read, only reason why I gave it a 4 out 5 is because I prefer to read books for enjoyment and interest, reading a book for class takes that away.

Superman, a Dark Knight in the Skies
Format: Paperback
This is a beautiful tome of the first issues of Superman under Action Comics and the first Superman issue. Although providing the same texts of Chronicles, I find this series better because they have more issues per volume. In spite of its 390 pages, these volumes are light and easy to handle. Albeit the simplicity and innocence of these stories, Superman impresses me as a "dark knight" of the skies given his toughness with the bad guys. In these stories, he's got no compassion for criminals. He also defends the working class, stand for fair treatment of workers, and even takes an "isolationist" stance which was popular in the days before WWII. Another surprise for the first-time reader of this period is that Superman can't fly; he can only leap over tall buildings. There is no Krypton and no Daily Planet. The city of Metropolis is introduced for the first time in the second half of this tome. And Lois Lane is often relegated to unimportant journalistic tasks, while she has greater ambitions. It is a great experience to read these old stories in a beautifully designed tome. I hope they reproduce the others quickly.

This is Superman like you DON'T remember him!
Format: Kindle
I've been a fan for as long as I've been able to tie a bath towel around my neck, so diving into these early comics has been a real joy! The character was quite different in the beginning so if you're not familiar with Golden Age Superman this might be quite the eye opener. Here in these early comics, Supes certainly isn't the Big Blue Boy Scout you knew and loved in the Silver Age and beyond; early on, he's more like the Well-Meaning Big Blue Bully/Borderline Sociopath. Sort of like early Golden Age Batman: bad guys die, Superman (or Batman) kind of shrugs and thinks, "Well, they got what they deserved..." His relationship with Lois is a bit more desperate-seeming in a few places as well. In fact, he's almost a bit stalker-ish in his pursuit/attitude toward Miss Lane. You can thank DC editor Whitney Ellsworth and a few others for softening the rough edges and turning The Man of Steel into the virtuous character we have today.
