I have potted my NOID seedlings up separately and numbered them. I thought seeing as they're NOID's I could assign a number to them to distinguish them. Here they are today..

Pia, I like your noids so much. In looking at the pictures, I see you are using shells to accompany them.

What is the yellow shell? It almost looks alive. Hilarious! Hilarious!

And you are getting another generation via the offsets, how wonderfu!! Congrats on all. Hurray! Hurray!

Yes, I also really love my NOID's very much! I have been looking forward to seeing their babies! All my Semps have offset new ones, even my seedlings! Must be something in the air Hilarious! Lovey dubby
I use shells and buttons and glass beads and plastic beads to accompany all my plants. The yellow one is a plain old oyster shell, painted using nail polishes! I tip my hat to you.

nail polish is good, because it dries like a varnish, and the colour fades in the sun so they end up looking vintage and weather worn <3 Lovey dubby

No, just a sentence or two is fine if you like. Ideas can be any length, but short ones are good too. Thumbs up

My first idea was 1800 words but if I could have conveyed it in a paragraph and put tons of pics I would have, because "a picture is worth a thousand words" (unknown author)... Whistling
