Help with rot

Post by Salazar »

As I was in the process of cleaning the roots of a plant I recently purchased and saw black spots near the roots;could this be the beginning of rot?

You have to resize it to smaller than 500kb or use a photo sharing website like imgur or flickr

I resize pictures in paint. The quality suffers a bit. I also resize pictures just by viewing the pic in a smaller window and take a screenshot and cut all the unimportant parts away with paint and save it. Quality is better when doing that but takes a little more time and clicking. There is many options when it comes to resizing.

There's a program called faststone photoresizer you can use in windows. It's free, super fast and has a comprehensive interface.
I personally use android phones and this app is the best:

It has batch capabilities and can maintain up to 1600x1200 resolution under 500kb even on the high resolutions of my samsung s8+
