honestly the calipers dont lie but good eyeballs are still faster until they aint lol

Thought it was a gimmick for years, figured a brush and some elbow grease did the same thing. Then I ran my first batch through one and saw threads come out clean that I'd been fighting for months. Now I just set it and forget it after every shift.

Hold up, you switched to rain water AND moved it at the same time? That's two big changes at once, so how do you know which one did the trick? I'd be real curious if you moved it back to the old spot but kept the rain water, or the other way around. My own monstera took forever to get holes too, and it turned out my tap water was way too hard for it, but I also had it shoved in a corner with barely any light. It's kind of annoying not knowing which variable actually matters, but hey, at least it finally did its thing.
